Where is the water coming from? Are they cracking it out of the crust, or are they aerobraking ice?

Originally the planet’s water was both melted permafrost and braked iceteroids, but in this specific case, it’s just the water vapor that’s been shuffled around the atmosphere by the weather-control grid pending sometime someone actually wanted a lot of rain. Or, in this case, Severe Weather Disposal Week.

Sounds like a good excuse to go to the tavern, drink warm and mildly alcoholic and watch the weather while telling tall tales of Severe Weather Disposal Weeks of years gone past, like the great mud-fight of ought-three.
