> Findings of a new analysis of storm data and model projections warn
> that flooding is going to be a worsening problem around the world,
> with a warmer atmosphere already leading to heavier downpours in both
> arid and wet climates.

> The study identified “robust increases” in “extreme daily
> precipitation” — the types of drenching storms that can wipe out
> homes and flood fields.
>
> “The extremes are increasing in both the wet and dry areas,” said
> Markus Donat, a University of New South Wales climate researcher who
> led the new study, published Monday in Nature Climate Change.
