The finding comes as heavy rain continues to pummel parts of Southern China. Our climate editor, Justin Rowlatt has been looking at how is Climate Change is altering Rainfall Patterns Around The World. This is a road, but last week, the cars were floating down it. Southern china regularly gets heavy rain, but not like this. And its the same with dubai. Big storms do blow in every few years, but they dont normally do this. The city got a year and a half s worth of rain in a single day. The storms that hit the gulf states last week killed 23 people and brought dubai and oman to a virtual standstill. The study published today found it was made between 10 40 more intense because of Climate Change. The finding isnt certain because rainstorms are so rare in the region. But the trend is clear. The atmosphere has warmed, and that means it can hold more moisture. Its that simple. Then that moisture falls as heavier rain. So those storms that might have happened anyway will have heavier rainfall

A week ago, for what looked like a possible regional war. Those fears have been somewhat dissipated after minimal israeli response in the last couple of days. And that side of things appears to have gone away a little bit, with both governments opting to let things calm down. We have had a war in gaza now that has lasted well over six months and that continues. The latest information we have is, as you were saying, several places in gaza were hit, including the Southern City of rafah, where many people were killed in reported israeli air strikes overnight.
