Yeah, it's a bit difficult to deduce the point he's trying to make.
There is this: "It is possible for a region to experience a long-term
circulation pattern that produces drought, and to have short-term changes in
this long-term pattern that result in short-term wet spells."
For those following along, my statement that it's weird was regarding the
rare "short-term wet spell" we have been experiencing, as well as the severe
drought conditions in the SE.

Let's see, 500 year flood, annual average rainfall by mid-year, not
being able to swing a dead cat by the tail without hitting some record
breaking weather event - that's weird in my book
2. Of a strikingly odd or unusual character; strange.

Yep. We may need to bring in a HAL 9000 to see what's wrong with Dave.

I don't do 200 page explanations. The link was provided as an explanation
of what the OPs link meant. Don't think anyone knew to begin with...
Thanks for the support (sic), Cat Daddy.
