This wickedly yuck-a-licious tidbit just out:

"Gore Effect" added to the Urban Dictionary

The well documented phenomenon that leads to very low, unseasonal temperatures, driving rain, hail, snow or all of the above whenever Al Gore visits an area to discuss global "warming". Hence the "Gore Effect."

- Australia, November 2006: Al Gore is visiting two weeks before summer begins. The Gore Effect strikes: "Ski resort operators gazed at the snow in amazement. Parents took children out of school and headed for the mountains. Cricketers scurried amid bullets of hail as Melburnians traded lunchtime tales of the incredible cold." (The Age)

- New York, March 2004: "Gore chose January 15, 2004, one of the coldest days in New York City's history, to rail against the Bush administration and global warming skeptics... Global warming, Gore told a startled audience, is causing record cold temperatures." (NY Environment News)

Hey, West LA and Malibu even had their own tribute to Al Gore's Oscar: The last snowfall recorded at Los Angeles International Airport was in January 1962, according to the National Weather Service. It happened this again this February. BRRR!

Country singer Kathy Mattea - one of Al Gore’s climate cultists - recently delivered the Goracle's message to a Utah crowdlet:

Mattea, yet another "celebrity expert" enlisted by Gore to give presentations like the one featured in his documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth,” spoke to a crowd (sic) of several dozen people at the Orem City Council chambers, asking them to take action against global warming.

A few days on, Utah suffered massive Gore Effect:

A man died in Washington County, homeless people were turned away from a packed shelter in St. George and records fell across the state Sunday as an arctic cold front settled over Utah.

In all, 16 record-low minimum and 16 record-low maximum temperatures were set or met in Utah.

(Laurie David Suzuki had the same effect on our February in Canada with his Dirty Diesel Bus Tour btw, coast to coast record or near-record lows!)
