Good summary by Gavin of this recent article. The only way that more cold extremes could happen in a warming climate is for the warming to be accompanied by increased interdiurnal variability (such as in the bottom figure below). That's both unlikely and atypical, at least in the mid-latitudes.

Anybody here using the new CDS API for downloading ERA5 data? Code is running fine, but it is REALLY slow (much slower than manual request on the webform)

September was a month precipitation extremes. Catastrophic flooding in parts of the Southeast, and exceptional dryness in the northern Plains and Great Lakes. This map show the September ranking from wettest to driest since 1895 using Prism climate data.

A reminder that hurricanes are a leading cause of extreme rainfall far from the coast, and far to the north: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
