Don, where you see flat areas of land with rivers running through them, they are flat because the rivers have made them flat. The way the rivers make them flat is by eroding higher ground and flooding lower ground with silt. Flooding is and always has been part of geomorphology. There is no Greenhouse Effect required to cause floods.

The amount of Global Warming coming out of The Little Ice Age has been less than 1 degree Celsius, which is not enough to cause significant extra peak rain or snow. When the Mississippi river floods by metres, the extra depth courtesy of that minuscule extra heating is insignificant.

<ye olde England, how well I remember the weather being described as "tomorrow there will be periods of brightness...">

Actually, each of the last 4 summers has been excellent in Lovely London though one year there was some good quality rain, which I avoided by being elsewhere for the couple of weeks involved. If the good weather is due to Global Warming due to CO2, then I dare say the average Londoner would be pleased to have more CO2. Having the climate of the south of France move to England, with grapes growing here as during the Roman Empire, would be excellent.

That would be far preferable to a return of glaciation during which time the ice sheet ended about 50 km north of London. Brrr...
