U.S. South-west has uncontrollable fires because of lack of rain and dry forests - millions of people are displaced. In the North-east there is too much rain and cities and towns are flooded, millions displaced and some deaths as well. I don't know if U.S ever faced this kind of severe situation before. Below is a picture of a fire near Yosemite National Park in California.
