heavy spring rains and dry summers

Brief Explanations

Weather refers to short - term atmospheric conditions. A hurricane is a short - term weather event, so extreme flooding during a hurricane is weather.
Climate is the long - term average of weather conditions. Warmer average air temperatures since 1910, heavy spring rains and dry summers (a long - term pattern), and increases in the frequency of flooding in the past century (a long - term change) are climate - related.

Answer:

Weather: extreme flooding during a hurricane
Climate: warmer average air temperatures since 1910, heavy spring rains and dry summers, increases in frequency of flooding in the past century
