Scientists have made a stark warning of an impending ‘Ultra-Intense Category 6’ storm hitting the US.

The prediction comes from an international team of over 60 experts who found the burning of fossil fuels has poured the equivalent energy into the Earth’s systems, heralding a dark new era of ‘mega-hurricanes.’

An ‘Ultra-​Intense Category 6’ storm would unleash winds of 192 miles per hour or higher and a rise in seawater exceeding 25 feet. While this is a theoretical weather event, experts called it ‘the most powerful storm ever seen on Earth,’ predicting it will form sometime around 2100′ and be named Hurricane Danielle.

The forecast is part of the new book Category Five: Superstorms and the Warming Oceans That Feed Them where author Porter Fox featured scientific calculations and testimonies from sailors who have dealt with extreme weather first-hand.

And while Florida was battered by hurricanes this year, Danielle would take a different path – New York.

The experts predicted the storm would move through the slim channel between Staten Island and Brooklyn’s Dyker Heights, which was last taken by Hurricane Sandy in 2012.

‘Destruction will be on a scale never seen in the Northeast,’ Fox wrote, ‘more like a cyclone on the floodplains of India or Bangladesh than wind events in the tristate.’
