Some of the key take home messages are that Climate change is increasing the extremity of weather. However, this should not be seen as a future threat, this is happening now, and has been for a while. Extreme weather is not new and figure 1 clearly shows this.
Climate change is not only changing the frequency of these events, but also seasonality, intensity and duration.
