The record-breaking rain that fell over the United Arab Emirates and Oman this month, triggering deadly floods and chaos, was driven partly by the climate crisis, according to a scientific analysis published Thursday, which pointed directly at humans burning fossil fuels.
A team of 21 scientists and researchers, under the World Weather Attribution initiative, found that climate change was making extreme rainfall events in the two countries — which typically fall during El Niño years — between 10 and 40% more intense than they would have been without global warming.
Over a period of less than 24 hours between April 14 and 15, the United Arab Emirates experienced its heaviest rainfall in since records began 75 years ago. Dubai — a glitzy desert city accustomed to going months with no precipitation at all — experienced the equivalent of more than a year and a half’s worth of rain in that time, the analysis said.
However, they concluded global warming was the “most likely” driver of the record rainfall, because the atmosphere in a 1.2-degree warmer world can now hold 8.4% more moisture, which is making extreme rain events more intense. Changing circulation patterns driven by global warming are also increasing rainfall intensity, the analysis noted.
Global warming was the only remaining reason they could identify to explain the heavier downpour.

The most trusted name in news.
Lol
Yawn. The progressive world-government-in-waiting climate change lobby sees climate change fingerprints in EVERYTHING.
satan is, as usual, overplaying his hand.
bs bs bs
Most trusted to tow the Globalist line.
Well, other than MSNBC
Article 1. The Congress Shall:
Construct a thermostat to control the temperature of planet earth; and, every hour, adjust that thermostat;
Set the maximum level of the oceans;
Set the miles per Kilowatt;
Set the rotational speed of the planet earth;
Set the size of The Ozone Hole;
Plug every methane gas leak on the planet earth;
Ban animal flatulence (cow farts, but also "for other purposes");
Set the size of glaciers.
Climate Change now has hands with fingers - who knew?
Science - Climate Change - CNN
With those words it’s guaranteed propaganda.
Based on data from the last 75 years. I have two problems with this. 1. How accurate was data 75 years ago, or even 50? 2. The earth is approx. 4 billion years old with humans around for about the last 3 hundred thousand according to the oldest fossils found so far. Any real scientist will tell you 75 years is way, way to little time for a valid analysis. I’m not saying humans have made the air healthier because we have done the opposite in many countries, and have made great strides in less pollution in this country, but blaming so called record floods on an incredibly small amount of data is ridiculous.
I remember reading the “cloud seeding” article the other day. These people are lunatics.
Next thing you know, they’ll be trying to convince us that men can become women.
yah, I remember that in the Constitution.
But I thought it was in Article 2 and it was President Brandon that shall do those things.
Cloud Seeding = Climate Change = Hoax
Jeez, I woke up this morning with a sore back. It almost certainly was caused by the climate crises.
These people find fingerprints of climate change everywhere .
In the ceiling at night, on the wall of the bathroom.
They’re pushing the “climate crisis” agenda.
Biden must be about to declare the crisis and use it assume even more dictatorial powers.
Biden is the best president money can buy.
I lived in the middle east for many years and it would rain very hard once or twice in the spring of almost every year and flood the entire area. Its as flat as a pancake so runoff is limited.
Exactly!!! And we are doing it here too. These arrogant sons of a bitches are going to kill us all!!!
How accurate is the data collected today?
Many weather stations are located in cities that can be 10 or more degrees F warmer than the surrounding countryside.
The "Climate Scientist" use mathematical algorithms to "correct" the data.
Of course an algorithm can do whatever the writer wants it to do.
