"That we under design our infrastructure isn't CO's fault"
If you mean CO2, we designed our infrastructure for a world with the temperature we had, not the temperature we have, influenced by CO2. The difference in temps means a lot more rain.
This is from way back in 2015, a relatively cool year by current standards.

NCEP/NCAR global up slightly
For the second month running, the Moyhu NCEP/NCAR index rose slightly, from 0.414°C to &0.428°C. Temperatures were warm mid-month, but dips at start and finish. As usual, the reanalysis shows local variation in Antarctica, where data is patchy, but overall it seems warmth predominates. Otherwise few major features - East Europe was warm. There seems to be a "pause" in cooling, which increases the likelihood of record heat in 2016.
In other news, there has been a late spurt in JAXA sea ice melt, which seems likely to take 2016 minimum past 2007, and exceeding only 2012. NSIDC says similar.
