World Weather Attribution links climate change to record US heatwaves, wildfires, and floods, showing human impact on extreme weather.
A severe heatwave has broken multiple temperature records across Australia, with some locations reaching nearly 50°C. The event is linked to climate change, with experts noting it is among the most intense and prolonged in recent history, exacerbating bushfire risks and impacting communities.
Recent heavy rains caused catastrophic flooding across Mozambique, South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Eswatini, with a year's worth of rain falling in days. Studies attribute the increased severity to human-caused climate change, worsened by La Niña conditions. The floods have resulted in loss of life, infrastructure damage, and humanitarian crises.
A persistent heatwave has caused record-breaking temperatures across the US West, with California and Arizona experiencing highs over 100°F in March. Climate scientists confirm this is virtually impossible without climate change. Long-term forecasts predict hotter conditions through June, with little respite expected.
A large-scale heat dome is causing unprecedented temperatures across the US, with record-breaking highs in multiple states. The heat is expected to persist into early April, driven by climate change and atmospheric patterns, impacting millions and setting new climate records.
