About this episode
We could be in for another wet, cloudy summer.
The chances of another La Niña weather event are growing, and it’s now very likely the east coast of Australia will be drenched once again.
That could make it the riskiest summer yet for flooding, with catchments still full and communities still regrouping.
Today, climate scientist and lead author on the IPCC’s most recent climate assessment, Joëlle Gergis, on our never-ending stretch of rainy summers and what they mean for the climate disaster.
