Climate change increased chances of record rains in Louisiana by at least 40 percent

Human­-caused climate warming increased the chances of the torrential  rains that unleashed devastating floods in south Louisiana in mid-August  by at least 40 percent, according to a team of scientists from  Princeton University and partner institutions with the international  research network World Weather Attribution (WWA). The research team,  which conducted a rapid assessment of the role of climate on the  historic heavy-rain event, also found that climate change boosted the  chance of rain volume by 10 percent.
