I don't think this article is attributing individual weather events to climate. It states that climate change can increase the severity / impact of weather events. The closest this article comes is to use the phrase "climate-related disasters". I think most scientists are still wary of attributing individual weather events to climate change, or even attributing severity of specific events to climate change. They will however draw correlations between the rate of severe events appearing, and climate change.

You can't call yourself a scientist and then utter phrases like "settled science" nor can you go along to get along for politically correct reasons. That isn't science, that is politics. It also doesn't matter what you believe in your heart or how strongly, if there is discounting evidence that leads you somewhere else, it is your obligation to be open minded and as objective as possible. Also, if results are ambiguous, then a true scientist will report that and not cherry pick data to match a foregone conclusion. Cherry picking data is not science, it is bullshit.
