#Scientists say #ClimateChange is increasing the frequency & intensity of such #WeatherDisasters, further straining FEMA’s #budget & personnel.

Oh, wondrous Nature, you give and take
In bounteous abundance and steady shake
Your furious storms can cause much grief
And sometimes it's us you seek to relieve
But through it all, we persevere
Though may your might can cause much fear
We turn our eyes
