Eric Darnley SmallFormer FEMA director Craig Fugate highlights how extreme weather events increasingly fall outside historical models, undermining assumptions built on a century of predictable climate patterns, with insurers now abandoning high-risk areas. This March's Southwest heat wave, per a flash analysis, was virtually impossible without climate change, which boosted temperatures by up to 7.2°F. Scientists attribute this to human-induced warming from fossil fuel emissions. As infrastructure and planning fail under unprecedented extremes, the need for urgent action becomes clearer.

Scientists say Southwest heat is latest in parade of ultra extremes
Scientists say a record-smashing March heat wave in the U.S. Southwest shows climate change is already driving more dangerous weather extremes. World Weather Attribution said Friday that the heat would have been virtually impossible without human-caused warming. Experts say extremes now hit more often, in odd seasons, and in unusual places. NOAA data shows a much larger share of the country sees extreme conditions than decades ago. An analysis by The Associated Press finds the U.S. breaks far more heat records than in past decades. One former FEMA official said disasters now fall outside old planning models and noted insurers pulling back.
