Severe Flooding in Mexico and US

At least 64 people are dead and dozens remain missing in Mexico after heavy rains caused flooding across five states, affecting around 100,000 homes.

In the US, a nor’easter has brought coastal flooding, winds, and heavy rain to mid-Atlantic and northeastern states, resulting in at least three deaths.

In Alaska, search-and-rescue crews have rescued dozens of people from coastal villages after the remnants of Typhoon Halong caused severe flooding and hurricane-force winds.

Human-driven climate change is making the strongest nor’easters even stronger, according to a study by University of Pennsylvania climate scientists, including Michael Mann.
