ummm Unemployment went down by 331,000
The storms caused a (temporary) decrease in payroll employment of 33,000. That's not the same thing as an increase in unemployment.

Employment Situation Technical Note gives the details on the two surveys used in the Employment Situation. The -33,000 comes from a payroll survey of businesses. It only counts those who received a paycheck for the reference period of the survey.
