Although not my current career, I come from an engineering background. This does not sound all bad. What I am hearing is that we simply need to build better dams, which can reduce the impact of the deluge while simultaneously improving the availability of water in the region. Depending on the amount of water, we may even be able to use it to irrigate large portions of land, and allow rivers and creeks to flow year round. Not all irrigation has to be for farming... perhaps we can water our national parks as well. Large lakes evaporate tremendous amounts of water too, further repairing the water cycle as well as being a force of localized cooling.
