You might have already felt what it would be like inside a cloud made of condensed water vapor.

New research clarifies the role of water vapor in rainfall, a complex relationship that remains mysterious.

New research offers insight into how flood risks may change in a warming world that has less snow.

Scientists knew human-induced climate change would cause Hurricane Florence to be bigger and wetter, even before the storm hit. Here's how.

Hurricane rains that come once winds subside may actually have more intensity than when the storm is at its strongest.

The next time a river overflows its banks, don't just blame the rain. New research identifies another culprit: Leafy plants.

Climate change may make it harder for the soil to absorb water. That could have serious implications for food production and security, researchers warn.

A new global water map is so advanced that scientists could use them to predict which rivers are most likely to flood during heavy rainfall.
