Abstract:

I will use independent storm surge and precipitation data to argue that the answer is affirmative. I will then explore the possibility that the cause is related to the continued weakening of the large-scale steering flow over the western Pacific, which in turn is connected to rising SLP over the maritime continent consistent with a general slow-down of the tropical atmospheric overturning circulation due to climate warming.
