💨 Abstract

In early April 2025, devastating storms in the central Mississippi Valley, caused by intensified rainfall due to climate change, led to at least 24 deaths. Human-caused global warming increased rainfall intensity by 9% and made such storms 40% more likely, according to the World Weather Attribution group. The Gulf of Mexico's unusually warm waters fueled these storms, with climate change making this warming 14 times more likely.
