"The weather this spring in the midwest" is exactly the type of logical fallacy I'm talking about. Floods have always occurred, are they occurring more frequently? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deadliest_floods https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deadliest_floods Here is Mississippi. This isn't "unprecedented" at all in spite of headlines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_River_floods https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_River_floods What I'd like to see is a plot of frequency of extreme events. Not sensational news articles. That really might convince me. Because I might be wrong, but what I see now looks like hype.
