Which risk increases when polar jet stream meandering amplifies?

💡 Explanation

Extreme jet stream meandering causes atmospheric blocking patterns, driving persistent weather locally. This process increases the odds of prolonged heavy rainfall over a specific area because the storm systems stall rather than migrate; therefore, prolonged flooding is likelier during meandering, rather than ozone depletion or carbon sequestration.
