I think that this is very good science and a very important paper, but I don't think it settles every question.
It's not something we predicted, and I'm not sure it's something we can anticipate way in advance.
That's not physically consistent with more intense storms, there's something fishy in that result.
We can explain it after the fact, but we can't forecast that very well, where the storms are going to form.
