I think we need to separate quantity of hurricanes from power.
In the NOAA article you referenced, they also show a statistical trend in a chart that shows that the power dissipation of atlantic basin hurricanes will actually, on average, triple by the year 2100 (not 2050 as in the other article). Note that it goes from 100% to approximately 300% as an average of all the models.
NOW, I owe you an apology on the specific point of # of hurricanes tripling by 2050.
I should mention that in the other article, it wasn't hurricanes specifically that were going to triple, I misread that -- it was another climate and health induced problem; in that case, it was some sort of respiratory condition linked to global warming, which would triple by 2050. I apologize for that!
But nevertheless, the message, and mission, remains the same.... and the number of respiratory problems tripling is arguably worse than the hurricanes tripling.
And still the trend with hurricane power is to nearly triple, anyway, by 2100, by one study referenced in your article. There are several there with varying predictions, but all seem to be on the same trend.
