Scientists are warning of rising temperature and less volume and frequency of rain. Why are we going to experience flooding if there is less rainfall?
Climatologists have suggested for some time that climate change would lead to more intense rainfall globally. They suggest that while frequency of smaller rainfall events may decrease and we may experience drought conditions, more extreme events such as a 1 in 10 year event and larger may occur more often. This will result in more flooding events globally.
