What made Harvey particularly devastating was that the storm stalled near the Texas coast and produced heavy rains for four consecutive days near Houston.  The intense rainfall over several days was reminiscent of the Louisiana flood that occurred a year earlier; in that August 2016 event, a stalled low-pressure system produced four days of intense rainfall that devastated the city of Baton Rouge.  The two events bear a striking resemblance, not in the storm category but rather, in the time of year that they occurred (August) as well as in their geographical location (neighboring states and near-coastal cities).  Both systems had stalled due to blocking high pressure that prevented movement further inland followed by interactions with a frontal system to the north. Preliminary earth system modeling tracking and projecting stalled storms over southwest Texas, in conjunction with approaching northern frontal systems, signifies an increasing trend in the number of cases that have similar synoptic patterns and associated stationarity to that of Harvey.  Precipitation associated with these stalled storms was projected to increase due to increased precipitable water.  While the estimate from the present downscaling attribution is by no means absolute, since attributing convectively-driven extreme precipitation events is challenging, this study calls for a careful reevaluation of the attribution of convective systems that may become more stalled in the future and produce more rainfall.
