I love it when the climate alarmists make fools of themselves.
Another term I have heard is “weirding weather ” which sounds like “Dune”.
Climate scientists must have had their spines removed at birth so they huddle beneath their desks and avoid being questioned about the most recent loonyness.
Like Al Gore’s journey to the US capitol to demand reparations for the poor Peruvian farmers who froze to death last winter. So now CO2 causes cooling too ?
Some people respond that Al Gore isn’t a scientist and they are right. Why are the scientists silent about this absurdity ? Silence is assent in this instance. Where are their backbones ?

‘My own personal favorite in “Irritable Climate Syndrome”.’
Oh no it is worse than we thought, if that is like irritable bowel syndrome things could get uncomfortable and messy.

The climate disruptions due to reduced solar activity can’t come soon enough to teach the warmists a lesson the will never forget. Especially for those eco-terrorists down under.
New Zealand: Snow from storm collapses stadium, continues to cause havoc; ‘We’ve never had a snow fall this big before, in our history’
“Heavy snow has severely damaged one of Invercargill’s most important venues.
The weight of snow caused the roof on the main netball court to collapse at the multi-purpose and world-class Stadium Southland this morning.
Stadium Southland General Manager Nigel Skelt said it was lucky it did not happen during a busy time of week.
“We’ve never had a snow fall this big before, in our history. We’ve been going ten years and unfortunately in this instant it just hasn’t been able to sustain it.”

Post-normal climate. “Post-normal” being the kitschiest new jargon word any PhD ever thought up. And it sounds so much better than “we don’t know”, or SWAG, and if you MSU (make stuff up) you get a free pass because your intentions are pure.

I just wish they’d settle on something. I’m getting tired of recalibrating my weather rock.
* If stone is wet, it is raining.
* If stone is green, it rained a while ago.
* If stone is white, it is snowing.
* If stone is shaking, there is an earthquake.
* If stone is dry, the weather is fair.
* If stone is swinging, it’s windy.
* If stone is warm, the sun is out.
* If stone is not visible, it’s dark outside.
* If stone is under water, there is a flood.
* If stone is gone, there is a tornado (Run!!)

How about Anthropogenic Climate Flatulence? This whole thing stinks anyway…

How about “Scientifically Transmitted Disruption”, or STD for short. It’s not restricted to just the climate.

“Planet Death Watch” works for me, since that is the longtime obsession of Jim Hansen and his “Venus Syndrome”!
——–
Hansen believes that governments don’t yet recognize the urgency of climate change. “There are a lot of governments who say they understand the problems, but a lot of it is greenwash,” he said. “The Venus Syndrome [in which Earth undergoes runaway warming and the oceans boil off] is the greatest threat to humanity’s existence. Earth is Goldilock’s choice of the planets – not too hot, not too cold, it’s just right.”

If stone is joined by others, glacier’s retreated.
If stone is stoned, out with mates last night…

Instead of any of new names , they should make a climate armageddon clock , much like the clock that the nuclear war clock of a few decades ago . If the climate begins to cool down as expected we can all watch it run backwards – kinda like the Bill Clinton watch .

RE: netdr:
Al Gore has taken the job of the Earth’s defense attorney. He’s not even qualified for that, though. He’s been a politico most of his career until the majority of people in his constituency caught on to him.
