Dear experts,
could you enlighten why we do not employ the present perfect tense in the main clause, when we utilize the preposition "since"?
Thanks beforehand.
"Since Camille" does not modify a verb in this sentence. Rather it modifies "the most intense (hurricane)," specifying that it is "the most intense (hurricane) since Camille."
So, it has no effect on the tense of any verb in the sentence.
