A powerful storm system that stalled over states from Texas to Ohio for several days in early April 2025 wreaked havoc across the region, with deadly tornadoes, mudslides and flooding as rivers rose. More than a foot of rain fell in several areas. As a climate scientist who studies the water cycle, I often get questions about how extreme storms like these form and what climate change has to do with it. There’s a recipe for extreme storms, with two key ingredients.

Earth Extreme storms form thanks to moisture and atmospheric instability. These two ingredients are common in the central U.S. in spring. Climate change means more warm air, and warm air holds more moisture, leading to wetter and stronger storms. The most significant warming occurs near the surface, while the upper atmosphere is cooling. This can increase the instability that triggers strong storms.
