I dislike calling this "magical thinking", just because the plausible causal relationship takes a little time to discover, it's not implausible at the outset.
In fact, the causal relationship between rain & wifi is taken as a given by the author:
> If anything, rain makes wireless signal quality worse
It's not too surprising to discover a causal relationship between two things we already know are causally related.
You don't think it's unusual to find a positive correlation where there is usually a negative correlation?
Unusual yes, magical no
