Does a warmer climate put more or less water into the atmosphere? It even rained in California this year. https://www.wired.com/story/why-rain-is-getting-fierc

  More, but less on the ground in usable quantities. Warmer air holds more water, warmer water evaporates more. Water vapor condenses into rain more heavily when warm moist air cools, resulting in heavier rains. Heavier rains are not beneficial to crops, and can damage them. Staple crops like wheat get destroyed if the rain is too hard. Many crops cannot be brought in wet, so longer rains can destroy yields as well. Rain is really complex issue for farms.
