The likelihood of floods is changing with the climate

IN 1979 it was Claudette; in 2001 it was Allison; now it is Harvey: in 50 years, the city of Houston has been hit by three separate “500-year floods”. A 500-year flood does not have to happen only twice a millennium. But a run of three in one place does make it feel as if the past climate were no longer a reliable guide to the present—as if the climate itself were changing.

So, of course, it is. The world’s average temperature is between 0.6 and 0.7°C (1.1- 1.3°F) higher than it was in 1979. Scientists have understood since the 1850s that hotter air holds more water vapour; a law known as the Clausius-Clapeyron equation states that for every degree Celsius of warming, the atmosphere will hold 7% more moisture. In 1989 two Japanese researchers used computers to model this phenomenon and concluded that this wetter air would lead to more of the heaviest rains rather than, say, near-perpetual drizzle. It is thus no surprise that insurers see an increase in water-related disasters (see chart 1).

Call it any way you want. We are reaping what we have sown.

Internet conjecture backed by dartboard science.

Nobody is worried about the floods except the climate obsessed. In the bigger picture, they equate to a meer handful. Billions have been seeing floods their whole lives....the magic of modern day TV.

The climate obsessed would be better served heading down to the local handball court for an hour or two ( in between floods of course ). At least they'd getting a little exercise.

Warm climate, increased CO2, heavy rain and never ending drizzle.... Sounds like the Cretaceous period to me.

Warmest period in Earth's history, no polar ice, average temperature of 95 degrees... Happened naturally without humans, ended naturally without humans, grew the largest plants the Earth has ever seen (which in today's world would mean the end of world hunger)... Doesn't sound so bad.

Anyone who thinks the climate should be static is a stupid watermelon.

Not sure a a lava flow at 1-2 MPH is "angry". I would say more peckish.

Haven't had one of those since my last visit to Tijuana.

Conservatives in the US reject facts. You can post as many facts as you like, their whole worldview is based on magic. Facts are like volcanic eruptions that disturb their fantasy neighborhoods.

But anywhere you look s0n, the magic is winning while your side, well, isnt! Taking bows in front of a banner is ghey. Conservatives are taking bows in the real world....gleeful at the death of the Paris Treaty. Laughing at the reality of zero congressional legislation in the past 10 years! Splitting their sides laughing seeing 25 years of bomb throwing blabber on the climate result in wind/solar combining to power just 5% of our grid!. The EPA getting train wrecked! Oh.... and watching every green candidate in the last few midterm elections get their clock cleaned!

So we'll go with the magic and let you guys do all the bowing!!

Facts such as Fewer Tornadoes, Hurricanes, lower ACE Tropical Storm Index, More Snow and Cold in Winter, Same periodic warming trends since the 1800's, and more are bad news for alarmists who want to imposed a new world order.

Trump will be a shit stain on America's underwear soon and all he attempted to do will be undone. The US is the only country that at the moment is controlled by the redneck Taliban, but that too is temporary and will pass. But you hillbilliy dumbasses have your moment in the sun, like the neo-Nazis in Charlottesville. But now they're gone. You're children that have found daddies keys and are driving the car around the block. But you think it's forever. That's the funny part.

Real dumb. That was the areas that were wet, many desert areas at that time, also. Not only that, the speed of the transition will be such that our agriculture is going to have difficulty in keeping up with the changes. Plus the refugees from rising sea level will present a very serious political crises. Apparently you have not given what you stated any thought at all.

More lies from a dumb **** liar.

Snow extent across the Northern Hemisphere has increased since the 1980s in December, but decreased by an even larger margin in June. (December and June images courtesy Rutgers University Global Snow Lab.)

Spring snow goes downhill | UCAR - University Corporation for Atmospheric Research

So we are getting more snow in December, but it is gone far faster in the spring. That is exactly what is predicted. More water vapor in the atmosphere from a warming ocean and atmosphere, which creates more precipitation. That falls as snow in the winter, but the rapid warming we are experiencing rapidly melts that snow in the spring.

"We're seeing fewer hurricanes, but the ones we do see are more intense," Elsner said. "When one comes, all hell can break loose."

In order for a tropical disturbance to develop, the conditions need to be just right. While that includes a moist and unstable atmosphere, as well as weak vertical wind shear, ocean temperatures are also very important. Sea-surface temperatures need to be warm -- usually greater than 80 degrees -- therefore, those warmer oceans would allow for stronger hurricanes and typhoons.

Earth's temperatures have met three major milestones recently, setting the set the stage for warmer conditions:

• Earth's temperature has warmed 1.53 degrees Fahrenheit from 1880 to 2012, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
• NOAA said average sea-surface temperature across the globe in 2014 was 1.03 degrees above the average during the 20th century -- the highest on record with records dating back to 1880.
• 2014 was the warmest year across the globe for land and sea surface temperatures in 134 years of records.
