There is a good NOAA write up related to Hurricane Harvey flooding.

Linking hurricane rainfall to global warming today (and even decades from now) based upon
such a tiny contribution is misleading. Moreover, such a fixation can delay steps that can be
taken now to better mitigate the effects of extreme flooding from hurricanes.
