Last week's rain in Pensacola (there was a lot of it) set a new record.
Florida deluge was an all-time record
"According to data from the weather station at Pensacola Regional
Airport, 15.55 inches of rain -- the greatest rainfall amount from any
calendar day on record—fell Tuesday. Data from the station go back to
1879."
In a word: WOW.
Roger Pielke Jr. doesn't think this is related to global warming.
But this puts it in much better context:
Climate change and the floods
Well, here's what I say. The more floods like this, the more they are a significant sign of climate change.
Period.
