What DLC do you have installed?
Space Race, Green Planet, Stellaris Dome Set, Marsvision Song Contest, Colony Design Set, Project Laika, In-Dome Buildings Pack

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
After installing hotfix 4, my map has back to back disasters. I counted 6 back to back, each with less than 4 sols inbetween. Three dust storms, then meteor shower, then cold snap, all within 4 sols of each other (usually shorter interval, sometimes overlapping).

This can be seen by playing back these saves. I have absolutely no mods and have never installed any.

I have max dust storm game rule, twister, winter is coming turned on. Armageddon is not turned on, 2 pip meteor.

Can you replicate the issue?
I only saw 6 (or 7, only started counting when it got fishy) disasters back to back. I can't check further because the colony collapses. I had put 80 hours into this save.

I can possibly restore older saves too, but I don't keep much of a backlog of saves. There two should show the phenomenon.

As far as I understand there should be a ~10 sol cooldown between disasters of the same type yet I'm getting back to back dust storms within 3-5 sols of each other.
 
I have continued to test this. A disaster occurs, including cold wave, dust storm, and meteor shower, every 4 sols or less. This has happened for +15 disasters in a row. I just now installed ECM (extended cheat menu) to debug and test this, to make time go faster and keep colonists alive.

The disasters happen with only 4 sol break between each other.

edit: 25+ disasters in a row, all within 4 sols or less of each other. It is non stop. Happened after hotfix 4.
