Evidence? No, just more of your comic strips. Evidence appears in the literature, like Kunkel, et al.


One measure of heavy precipitation events is a two-day precipitation total that is exceeded on average only once in a 5-year period, also known as the once-in-five-year event. As this extreme precipitation index for 1901-2012 shows, the occurrence of such events has become much more common in recent decades. Changes are compared to the period 1901-1960, and do not include Alaska or Hawai‘i. (Figure source: adapted from Kunkel et al. 2013 7).

Let's see, 12+ inches of rain yesterday another major rainfall forecast tomorrow and this is not extreme for Houston??? But don't worry, you say you're on a hill, a hill in Houston?
