Greater Floods and Greater Droughts and Greater Winds

Since the Northern ice Sheet now melts out completely in either September or October of every year at the North Pole, the added heat absorption from the blue water instead of the white ice and snow which reflects the heat of the sun back out into space. We can now expect warmer and warmer average temperatures, higher winds caused by more heat displacement, more flooding caused by more evaporation into clouds of the oceans, lakes, and ice, and more droughts caused by the more extreme heat changes in some areas. So while some areas flood, other areas will have extreme droughts and many of the most extreme limits of drought or wind or flood will make certain random areas uninhabitable either temporarily or possibly permanently (one year or more). So, as the planet's average temperature slowly increases many things will change. And if  you are not affected by either flooding or drought then you might have to look out for winds over 100 mph in your areas. The end result of all this is that many peoples will be forced to migrate from places that they might have lived 100s or even 1000s of years throughout many generations to new places which are still okay and not too hot, too dry, or too wet or too windy to survive in.
