I know a lot of researchers work on attribution. I don't do this kind of work, but I know of this project: www.worldweatherattribution.org
World Weather Attribution – Exploring the contribution of climate change to extreme weather events

Interesting analysis. Thanks for taking the time to do it. Though I'm sorry you receive so much abuse.
