Correct, two storms proves nothing. One other fast fact is we have broken an 11 year drought of landfalling major hurricanes in CONUS. That was a long stretch with little action.

I think it certainly does prove something. The biggest storms ever (Harvey, Irma-- 180 miles an hour winds), the biggest fire ever in LA; they are bigger because of global warming. Individual storms happening doesn't prove anything, but the size and frequency does, and focusing only on storms that affect the CONUS proves nothing. And so much for Trump's and the GOP's hope for less government spending

Ehn. Meh.   Doom porn.  

Here's the real scoop.

You are correct in that Harvey dumped the 2nd most in the US . To get doom porn right wrt Harvey would have been if he smacked New Orleans after Houston.

Irma still has possibilities.  She might smack DC. That would be porn doom you can believe in. After going through Allison and Ike, it wonders me to no end why folks rebuilt in the same place that got blown down or swept away.

Maybe it's karma, but then again, maybe not.

Nature is crying "yes I can!" "Storms you can believe in." Direct karma for sure.
