After Severe Weather Disasters in Kentucky, Florida and California, Long-Term Problems Linger

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports on the lingering impact of extreme storms in Kentucky. While the storms have passed, the flooding continues to displace residents, shutter businesses, and halt recovery. McIntyre emphasizes that this pattern mirrors similar weather events in Los Angeles and Florida, where damage from wildfires and hurricanes continues long after the weather clears. He warns this is part of a growing trend in the U.S., where the aftermath of climate disasters now stretches far beyond the events themselves.
