Next up, Texas

Three major hurricanes hit Florida last season, causing tens of billions in damage and killing several. This year has the most storms (so far) since the 1930's. One has already hit New Orleans causing hundreds of billions in damage and killing hundreds. Now we have a class 4 hurricane aimed at Texas.

There are a couple of possible explanations for this.

If you are from a blue state, your explanation is that our dependence on fossil fuels and our refusal to take responsibility for a huge increase in greenhouse gasses has led to a warming of the earth and consequently a warming of the oceans, feeding storms and building them into a force which has come back to bite us in the ass.

If you are from a red state, your explanation is that God hates red states.
