You can bet those in Houston are not thinking about "climate change in the future". This stuff is very real for them right now

I have lived in the same home for thirty years. In August we had the biggest downpour from a thunder storm I have seen. In five or ten minutes we got about five inches of rain. I was also admiring the ants after it happened. The ones that didn't get drowned just got up out of their holes and went about their business. They got hundreds of millions of years of adaptations of dealing with climate.
