Probably implying that climate change has had an effect, such as influencing the amount of rainfall. Effects like this do occur (recent California drought worsened up to 20% by climate change), but it is too early to tell with this flooding. However, more extreme floods, droughts, storms, etc. will occur as a consequence of climate change.

exactly this.
Explain longest time without hurricane coming ashore.
Weather will always be unpredictable and strong events will occasionally happen - climate change or not.
I would wager that population density generating excessive runoff, poor drainage planning, and other man-caused factors contributed more to the impact than climate change.
