Here's why the U.S. just experienced its wettest 12-month stretch on record, and yes, climate change is a part of the discussion.
I am always careful when writing this type of piece because there is usually some contrarian hanging out on Twitter waiting to pounce on statements like"It's the ______est year ever." To avoid cliche trolling, it is important to use the word"on record." With that out of the way, let's discuss the U.S. experiencing its wettest 12-month stretch on record . In case you missed it, the last 12 months is the wettest 12-month stretch on record for the US.
Before I discuss climate connections, it is important to discuss meteorological connections first. The inevitable"it has always rained" or"climate changes naturally" is lurking in someone's head right now. My placeholder response is that grass on your lawn grows naturally too, but it you put fertilizer on the soil, it grows differently. I will provide a more robust discussion later in the article.
