Similarly, the annual number of extreme storms in southern Michigan doubled between 1964 and 2013. Between 1958 and 2012, the heaviest 1 percent of storms in the Midwest became 37 percent more powerful. This has serious effects for stormwater infrastructure, as drainage systems are developed based on precise risk assessments.
