Yes, that forecast is fun. Any "uncertainty" seems to be shared by maybe ~3% of working climate scientists, according to today's NYT: www.nytimes.com/2012/05/01/science/earth/clouds-effect-on-climate-change-is-last-bastion-for-dissenters.html?_r=1&hpUS media usually tells us that scientists differ. So, change the channel, pop another beer, and wait for 100% of them to agree. What is government for? Softball sized hail fell across our city Saturday. That's ~ 5 inch or 12 cm chunks of ice, gazillions of them, falling from the sky with momentum. Our neighborhood had maybe 1 cm hail and lots of wind and rain. Luckily we were in the basement anyway, just in case it turned into a tornado, and were able to deal with the water flooding in under the cellar door.

There was a little tornado near Toulouse the day before yesterday -- always an unexpected event in Europe.

That's wild, Kerouac, and a plenty big tornado in my book.
When I played the clip on this page, I got a little pop-up on the bottom of the screen informing me that these are the End Times, and saying that 2008 was God's Last Warning; 2012 will be It. Apparently the US electing a Democrat president was the Last Straw.
