Between 10% and 40% more rain fell in just one day last week - killing at least two dozen people in the United Arab Emirates, Oman and parts of Saudi Arabia - than it would have in a world without the 1.2 degrees Celsius (2.2 degrees Fahrenheit) warming that has come from the burning of coal, oil and natural gas since the mid-19th century.
Even without computer simulations, the clues kept pointing at climate change, scientists said. 'It's not such a clear fingerprint, but we have lots of other circumstantial evidence, other lines of evidence that tell us that we see this increase,' said climate scientist Friederike Otto.
