Synoptic Scale Influences on Increasing Summertime Extreme Precipitation Events in the Northeastern United StatesOver the past 15 years, the northeastern United States has seen a statistically significant increase in the frequency of extreme precipitation events that is larger and more widespread than anywhere else in the country.
