Severe rainfall across central Europe, Africa, Shanghai, and the Carolinas has resulted in devastating floods, highlighting the impact of climate change on weather patterns. In Africa, at least 1,000 fatalities and millions displaced have been reported, while Europe experiences fewer casualties due to better preparation and infrastructure. In the U.S., record-breaking rainfall led to localized flooding in coastal areas of North and South Carolina. These extreme weather events exemplify how climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of rainfall globally, with significant socioeconomic implications for affected regions.
