It's a topic about nothing. The graph is based on the value of overall losses but the value of overall losses due to weather events naturally spike as the value of property increases. You could only imagine what the henny penny global alarmists would have said about the Galveston disaster at the dawn of the 20th century.
Yes, I did. And the rise in extreme weather events have proven the scientists prediction correct. As the continuing rise in extreme weather events will continue to increase the cost of those events every year.

You are such a dummy. No one is claiming that there were not serious floods in the past. But we are getting more frequent flooding now than in the past. But you deny that and lie about it, because it does not fit your political views. People like you would not survive very long during the stone age, because denial of reality simply led to idiots becomes a snack for something big and toothy. Yes, there is more flooding now than in the past;
Heavier Precipitation
"A warmer atmosphere holds and subsequently dumps more water. As the country has heated up an average of 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit since 1901, it has also become about 4 percent wetter, with the eastern half of the United States growing soggiest. In the Northeast, the most extreme storms generate approximately 27 percent more moisture than they did a century ago. Basically, because of global warming, when it rains, it pours more. Such was the finding of a study by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) examining the record-breaking rainfall that landed on Louisiana in 2016, causing devastating flooding. The study determined that these rains were at least 40 percent more likely and 10 percent more intense because of climate change.
Looking forward, heavy precipitation events are projected to increase (along with temperatures) through the 21st century, to a level from 50 percent to as much as three times the historical average. This includes extreme weather events known as atmospheric rivers, air currents heavy with water from the tropics, which account for as much as 40 percent of typical snowpack and annual precipitation along the West Coast. Experts predict they will intensify, bringing as much as 50 percent more heavy rain by the end of this century."
A growing number of communities—both coastal and inland—are finding themselves underwater. Extreme weather, sea level rise, and other climate change impacts are increasingly to blame. Here’s a look at what links flooding and our warming world.
So the farmers losing all they have ever worked for because of this drought is a ruse. So the thousands of people in the West that have lost their homes to wildflowers is a ruse. So the rising sea levels that are making in the king tides on the southeast coasts so much higher are a ruse. Completely amazing that some people are this stupid and ignorant.

Your own source doesn't back your climate change flooding claim.
Flooding Causes
Many factors can go into the making of a flood. There are weather events (heavy or prolonged rains, storm surge, sudden snowmelt), and then there are the human-driven elements, including how we manage our waterways (via dams, levees, and reservoirs) and the alterations we make to land. Increased urbanization, for example, adds pavement and other impermeable surfaces, alters natural drainage systems, and often leads to more homes being built on floodplains. In cities, under-maintained infrastructure can lead to urban flooding. More and more, flooding factors are also linked to climate change.
Climate Change and Flooding
Connecting climate change to floods can be a tricky endeavor. Not only do myriad weather- and human-related factors play into whether or not a flood occurs, but limited data on the floods of the past make it difficult to measure them against the climate-driven trends of floods today.
