Dear Tom The problem with CO2 is that it "raises the base level" of Earth Atmosphere's heat retaining capability. With a higher average temperature, there is more energy available within the biosphere, for "re-boiling" water vapor. One can thus expect more storms, from this line of logic. The offsetting factor could be that with more water vapor in the air, there will be more clouds, and more reflection of sunlight back into Space, and a tendency for Global Cooling to offset CO2's tendency for global warming. However, if cloud cover does not increase significantly more than what it is now, this "tempering mechanism" will not cut in.
