The rain isn't evenly distributed through both space and time. We might get a drought for years and then torrential rainfalls. We are already seeing this. It's happened in California and Germany. Both places I'm most tide to. So maybe it's sampling bias. At my parent's in Germany, most fir trees are dead from the multi-year drought and then in June 2021 half the village was destroyed by a flood.
