Instead of 50% extra rainfall, when they rechecked their calculations their models only came up with 4.8% extra, while the size only increased by 9km, not 80km.
Roger Pielke Jr has the full story here.
But the whole episode shows that these weather attribution models are run for political impact, and contribute little to the science.
