"Hurricane Michael damage: up to $3 billion in Georgia agricultural losses “Unfortunately, our worst thoughts were realized,” Ag Commissioner Gary Black says
Damage from Hurricane Michael to Georgia’s agriculture industry could reach nearly $3 billion, according to new state assessments.
“These are generational losses that are unprecedented and it will take unprecedented ideas and actions to help our farm families and rural communities recover,” Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black said in a statement.
Timber losses alone are estimated at $1 billion, as about 1 million acres were destroyed, state figures show. Cotton, peanuts, pecans, vegetables and poultry also were hit hard."www.ajc.com/news/hurricane-michael-damage-billion-georgia-agricultural-losses/TLLCf5XpCsnJvMAhWZE8cI/

That "unprecedented" word is in danger of being overused. The unprecedented use of unprecedented is unprecedented. Which will now set a new precedent. God help us.

The unprecedented use of unprecedented is unprecedented. Which will now set a new precedent. God help us. Quite, however bear in mind the more you use the word unprecedented it'll become less unprecedented in its precedentedness

www.gfdl.noaa.gov/global-warming-and-hurricanesGlobal Warming and Hurricanes (revised Sept.2018) Section E.Summary for Atlantic Hurricanes and Global Warming In summary, neither our model projections for the 21st century nor our analyses of trends in Atlantic hurricane and tropical storm counts over the past 120+ yr support the notion that greenhouse gas-induced warming leads to large increases in either tropical storm or overall hurricane numbers in the Atlantic. While one of our modeling studies projects a large (~100%) increase in Atlantic category 4-5 hurricanes over the 21st century, we estimate that such an increase would not be detectable until the latter half of the century, and we still have only low confidence that such an increase will occur in the Atlantic basin, based on an updated survey of subsequent modeling studies by our and other groups. Therefore, we conclude that despite statistical correlations between SST and Atlantic hurricane activity in recent decades, it is premature to conclude that human activity–and particularly greenhouse warming–has already caused a detectable change in Atlantic hurricane activity.

It has been tried but when you do so, you get banned.
