Al Gore:
When the temperature goes up, the water vapour coming off the oceans into the sky is increasing significantly. This means that every storm is different now because it takes place in a warmer and wetter world. Water vapour if often funneled thousands of kilometers from the oceans over the land, and then much more of it falls at the same time. Look at this downpour that hit Tuscon, AZ., and watch the water splash off the city. They're now calling these things "rain bombs."
