More Global Warm Wierd "Whiplash". [krakatoa]

After suffering years of sub-par temperatures, ocean levels and hurricanes, tornadoes have joined the club * this year.

While admitting that cool temps are the likely culprit, the article does reassure the faith of its flock:

Weather Underground meteorologist Jeff Masters said. "The extraordinary contrast underscores the crazy fluctuations we've seen in Northern Hemisphere jet stream patterns during the past three years," he said. "Call it 'weather whiplash' of the tornado variety."

It goes without saying that "Crazy" and unpredictable weather is an historical anomaly. That is as obvious a proof of their models' ironclad Oven Earth prognostications as any statistical swerve to those halcyon days of the 1900's where the weather was marginally cooler and less whiplashy (Serealy, Guys, we all know that if no Doppler radar existed to witness a remote tornado, then the tornado never existed).

[ahem]

Look, they are Sciency-tists, man. Back Off.

* It's a very secret club. Members greet each other by pulling out a stuffed animal that looks like an amalgamation of a man, a bear and a pig, and mime violating it. **

** And by mime, I don't mean they go all Marcel Marceau on it. That'd be totally French. ***

^{*** Not that there's anything wrong with that.}
