As a climate scientist who calls Texas home, I can tell you that the Hill Country of Texas is no stranger to flooding. Meteorologists often refer to it as “Flash Flood Alley” because of its steep terrain, shallow soils, and its history of sudden and intense rainfall.

Warming ocean temperatures and warmer air mean there’s more water vapor in the atmosphere to fuel extreme downpours like those that struck Texas during the July 4 weekend.

BEND, Texas (AP) — Across a wide swath of Texas, the inundated rivers that ravaged communities also tore through farms and ranches.

The “extreme precipitation” that occurred in all three places is becoming increasingly common and more intense due toclimate change, according to experts.“These are roughly one-in-1,000-year events, [and] would be extremely rare in the absence of human-caused warming,

Bill Nye claims climate change has worsened Texas flooding disasters, arguing that the U.S. government needs to take climate change more seriously.

With recent historic flooding, meteorologist John Burchfield is diving into the data of a warming climate and increased flood risks.

Researchers agree that climate change has made torrential downpours more frequent—but the science gets murky when examining how strong the link is between an extreme event and climate change.

CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten said on Thursday that Americans are not too concerned about climate change or about

At least 119 are dead and over 170 people are still missing after the catastrophic flooding in Texas. NBC News’ Jay Gray and The Kerry County Lead Editor and Publisher Louis Amestoy share the latest updates from Kerrville,

While climate change is not solely responsible for causing the recent flash floods across the country, here's how it does influence these events and their impact.

Democrats have blamed climate change for the Texas floods around Camp Mystic, but Heritage experts poke holes in this narrative.
