We know that climate change has intensified the monsoon rains in Pakistan and India (See https://www.worldweatherattribution.org/climate-change-likely-intensified-heavy-monsoon-rain-in-pakistan-exacerbating-urban-floods-that-impacted-highly-exposed-communities/)

And the consequences for people in the area has been devastating.

Adaptation (which has limits) and early warning systems are becoming critical.
