In the scenario — powerful back-to-back storms — floods could require about 1 1/2 million people to evacuate and cause more than $300 billion in property damage. The economic loss would be four times that of a very large earthquake.

The simulation was based on the most severe storm event on record in California, a 45-day series of storms that started in December 1861 and, according to the Geological Survey, caused such extensive flooding that the Sacramento Valley was turned into "an inland sea, forcing the state Capitol to be moved temporarily from Sacramento to San Francisco, and requiring Gov. Leland Stanford to take a rowboat to his inauguration."

Geologists studying prehistoric flood deposits found evidence of even larger storms that occurred about every 300 years. Scientists project storms of that magnitude to become more frequent and powerful as a result of global warming. end quote.

After what we have witnessed regarding floods in Europe, Australia, Brazil, Pakistan and several other places on earth including China, there is no longer any doubt that such Megastorms now exist in real life. The real trick is trying to figure out where they will hit next.

For example, flooding for right now isn't the problem in the Eastern and Southern part of the U.S. It is extreme cold and unheard of snow storms in many areas. So, the wild weather worldwide is just getting wilder and woolier by the year it seems. And many many people worldwide won't be around any more because of these changes. These changes affect us all in  others ways as well when we pay more for food as well as everything we buy that is shipped by air or rail or by the trucks that get stuck in the snow and bad weather worldwide for sometimes days or weeks at a time. This only raises the costs of everything we buy worldwide. So, the people who are likely to suffer the most are the poorest of the poor worldwide because of all the ongoing extreme weather worldwide.
