USA Today for September 11th, 2023

 From storms to wildfires, it's already been a record catastrophic year for weather and climate disasters across the nation, and we've still got nearly four months to go.

 As of Monday, Sept. 11th, the U.S. has endured a whopping 23 separate weather and climate disasters that have each led to at least $1 billion in damage, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said Monday.

 That breaks the record of 22 set in 2020.
