Second 1,000-Year Storm in Weeks Targets 3 US States

You might think that having a once-in-a-thousand-year storm once in your life is remarkable, but for some states in the U.S., they had quite a surprise when they were hit by multiple storms less than weeks apart. These storms, which statistically have just a 0.1% chance of happening in any given year, happened within days of one another and were devastating.

These events have signaled a worrying escalation in the frequency and severity of extreme rainfall, challenging our assumptions about climate stability and resilience. Is there a reason these 0.1% storms happened so often and close together?
