There is no climate change from increasing GHGs because the so-called science claiming this is based on two scientific howlers, the incorrect belief from meteorology that the temperature signal a pyrgeometer measures is a real energy flow and adding this to real net IR emission, the claim that the Earth emits IR as if it were an isolated black body in a vacuum.

The resulting perpetual motion machine causes imaginary positive feedback and because in reality, GHG IR emission is turned off at the surface, standard heat transfer physics missed by Trenberth et. al., there can be no GHG-AGW. Sorry, you and the rest of those who feed off the imaginary warming scam have been had: the World is cooling.

1. Very likely incorrect.
2. Linking the east coast storms to arctics is bit overkill. Two strongest storms were probably at 1635 and 1638 with 1815 adn 1821 tracking. Dou you suggest that the ice cover was even lower than today?
3. 1821 surge was just marginally lower due to several external factors (phase of the moon, low tide etc.) NY was lucky then, unlucky now. However, it is interresting to see grouping of big storms few years apart. Perhaps some natural cycle? Can we expect another big storm in New Your in few years time?
Closing note: Observed damage wasn’t that bad. These things simply happens. It’s probably far cheaper to adjust rather than trying to prevent these inevitable storms.
