Heavy rainfall in hurricane Milton linked to human-driven climate change, though confidence is low

Cyclones similar to Hurricane Milton are 0-12mm/day  (0 to 20%) wetter over South Florida, while their intensity remains unchanged in other areas.

Hurricane Milton was a largely unique event. Therefore confidence in our results is low. 

Natural climate variability likely played a role in driving the pressure pattern and the associated increase in precipitation and wind-speed linked to Hurricane Milton, but human-driven climate change has also contributed.
