What was learned
The two Asian researchers report that "the TLP has an apparent oscillation of about 32 years before 1939 and an oscillation of about 10-22 years after 1945," but that "no long-term trend is found." In addition, they determined that "natural variability related to ENSO [El Niño-Southern Oscillation] and PDO [Pacific Decadal Oscillation] phases appears to prevail in the interdecadal variability of TLP."
What it means
In response to what climate alarmists call the unprecedented global warming of the 20th century -- and about which they express the gravest concern -- the number of tropical cyclones annually making landfall in the Philippines did not experience any net change. All variability was merely oscillatory activity around a mean trend of zero slope.

It helps to have scientists in the family. Thanks A. ;-)
Now, what caused the calamity? Maybe the flood was caused by all the garbage that we irresponsibly dumped in the river... or there was just too much water from the sky. I don't really know. Fact is, people are suffering and need help.
Om.
