I wonder is there a website which collects occurrences of natural disasters and their consequences. If a major prediction of climate change is increased frequency of extreme events, there must be an ongoing study and data collection. With more normal times quite behind us, and the public attention span of just a month or two, it is hard to use the frequency argument without historical and statistical data.
You could also check the ESA (European Space agency) site. During the fires in Greece this summer, I posted a graph showing their analysis of fire frequency in several european countries
