Happy Monday, listeners. Let's kick off the week by catching up on the latest science news.

For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Fultman.

Monday, July 22nd, topped the charts as the hottest day ever recorded on the planet.

But that's not actually the worst part.

The worst part is that Sunday, July 21st, had actually just broken the same record. Monday turned out to be even hotter.

Speaking of hellish weather, that's all our fault. Have you noticed how wacky rain has gotten?

Like, speaking personally, it feels

like we're seeing way more torrential downpours and unpredictable forecast than we used to.

And scientists say they've found proof that suggests this really is the case and that climate

change is to blame. I know. Shocking. What a plot twist. A study published last Thursday in

science found that the daily global

rainfall variability has been increasing since the 1900s to the tune of about 1.2% per decade.

Rainfall variability is a measurement that basically tells you how uneven the quantity and pacing of our precipitation is.

So, for example, if you have higher variability,

you might get droughts and downpours instead of a more chill assortment of sunny and rainy days.

The researchers behind the study say our greenhouse gas emissions are largely to blame. As our

atmosphere gets warmer, it's also able to hold more moisture,
