A scale for the rainfall, for the two figures, would be helpful to me, and to others, to grasp the scope of the difference between the two.

Thanks Stuart - have updated the graphic in the post with a clearer figure including a scale.

Thank you! I'll be covering hurricanes in an upper-division general education in about two eeeks, and this graphic will make a nice edition to the chapter as the question of 'How will hurricanes change in a warming world?' is addressed.

This will be very interesting to see how it plays out in real-time. I hope the people of the Caribbean area are prepared. Looking forward to follow-up. Thanks Ed!
