While individual events alone can lead to major disasters, when several events occur in close spatial and temporal proximity, impacts get compounded, with catastrophic results . In March 2019, Cyclone Idai  was the deadliest storm on record to strike the African continent, with the coastal city of Beira in Mozambique being particularly hard hit with at least 602 deaths . Nationally, Idai caused massive housing, water supply, drainage and sanitation destruction, but its impact extended to South Africa through disruption of the regional electricity grid . In April 2019, amidst heightened vulnerabilities in the aftermath of cyclone Idai, cyclone Kenneth  hit the country, affecting 254,750 people and destroying more than 45,000 homes . These circumstances caused the rapid spread of cholera, which triggered a massive vaccination programme to control the epidemic . While there were no specific detection and attribution studies for Idai and Kenneth, overall, there is high confidence that the rainfall associated with tropical cyclones is more intense because of global warming. However, there remain significant uncertainties about the impact of climate change on the numbers and strength of tropical cyclones per se .
