A study was undertaken in 2008 to determine this every question. The study found that hurricanes follow a 60 year cycle (more or less). The year 1980 was the last low period for hurricanes.
Since that date they found "a modest increase of minor hurricanes, no change in the number of major hurricanes, and a decrease in cases of rapid hurricane intensification."
As a result of these findings, the researchers concluded that "if there is an increase in hurricane activity connected to a greenhouse gas induced global warming, it is currently obscured by the 60-year quasi-periodic cycle."
Consequently, and in spite of the fact that (1) the hurricane record they analyzed started during the final stages of the Little Ice Age (which was the coldest period of the current interglacial), and that (2) the planet experienced a subsequent warming that has been declared by climate alarmists to have been unprecedented over the past millennium or more, they could still find no convincing real-world evidence that global warming enhances either the frequency or intensity of hurricanes occurring over the Atlantic Ocean.
On average, Florida experiences about three hurricanes per year. However, the number can vary significantly from year to year.
110 to 140 people are killed a year by hurricanes
Hurricanes can occur in any year, with the frequency and intensity varying. The number of hurricanes in a year can be influenced by several factors like ocean temperatures, wind patterns, and atmospheric conditions. It's important to stay vigilant and prepared for hurricanes during the peak season, typically from June to November.
Many scientists are blaming the warming of the earth's oceans, a result of anthropogenic climate change, for the documented increase in the strength of hurricanes. The same cannot be said for the frequency of hurricanes, which does not appear to be increasing aside from temporary increases (and decreases) in natural, multi-decadal oscillations.
On average, hurricanes directly kill approximately 50-100 people per year. However, the number can vary greatly depending on the intensity and location of the storm. Additionally, many more people can be indirectly affected by hurricanes through factors such as flooding, landslides, and other secondary impacts.
Global warming increases the risk of hurricanes.
Scientists attribute the increasing frequency and intensity of hurricanes to global warming because the rising temperatures in the oceans provide more energy for storms to form and strengthen. The warmer ocean waters can lead to more moisture in the atmosphere, resulting in heavier rainfall and more destructive hurricanes.

While the frequency of hurricanes has not shown a clear trend over the last 20 years, the intensity of hurricanes has increased. Tornado activity in the U.S. has also shown variability but without a clear increasing trend overall. However, more research is needed to determine the exact impact of climate change on tornadoes and hurricanes.
