Super typhoon top 10 (Weather)

Although climate change is evident in terms of droughts, bushfires, erratic rainfall, and warmer weather, I wasn't convinced it was having such an obvious effect on typhoons - but this table suggests that it is. Not that there are more, but there are more super cyclones

Seven of the 10 strongest ever have happened since 2006. Five of the top seven since 2013. If this trend increases - we may be entering the age of record breaking monsters. As much as I loved my old place, not sure how my nerves would hold up dealing with a Nepartak level typhoon, or bigger, every few years


(Not sure why the wind speeds are all grouped at the same speeds)
