The news keeps calling all these events "once-in-a-century" and I have to wonder, what are the odds of all of these once-in-a-century events happening in the same year? Never happened before in my life that I remember.

I'm sure there's would be push back, but they should really just say "this is the new normal".

"this is the new normal”. This is not the new normal. It's getting worse, I'm afraid.
