  1. “Oh those are just normal storms that are more wet” /s

  2. It’s a shame there is no way to predict such things. I’ve heard tell that other countries pay well-educated people to tell them what the weather will do, I wonder if we can every have such a thing.

  3. I live in Wichita, Kansas and we had a bad storm moved through maybe in the last month that flooded several parts of town. This sort of thing is also happening in other parts of the world.

  4. And whatever the hell just happened to us in the Palisades and Altadena not even counted as a storm.

  5. Gee, who’d -a -thunk higher temperatures cause more evaporation. Which increases potential rain, and causes higher discrepancies of temperature between hot and cold fronts, causing more severe storms with more rain fall.

    And crazy how with no significant top soil across large swaths of the country, that the earth can’t soak it all up when it happens.

    If only some would have said something decades ago?
