"once in a century" doesn't mean literally once a century, but rather a percentage probability over time. Having a couple in quick succession is actually not that strange.
- martin_a 2y agoIt is not? Well, seems like the percentage probability is up when it happens more often. Look at this table for example: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_von_Hochwasser-Ereignissen#Hochwasser-Ereignisse_im_21._Jahrhundert https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_von_Hochwasser-Ereigniss... Seems like people either started documenting more or there are more floods now.
