Meteorologists Worldwide Confounded by Simultaneous Phenomena



DUBLIN.  The international meteorological community was under a cloud of confusion this morning as they attempted to explain a mass of ecological phenomena which occurred across the globe at exactly the same time.

Met Eireann spokesman Michael Winterbottom explains, “At around 6.00am (GMT) this morning we begun getting reports from across Ireland about strange weather.  Accounts then started coming in from across Europe, then all over the world”.  The reports, he said, consisted mostly of incredibly strong gusts of wind, almost storm force, “But when we looked at our satellite imaging the weather fronts seemed clear.  Thermal imaging however showed massive pockets of warm air rushing in, mostly over densely populated areas”. 

Similar weather patterns were reported across the globe, with parts of the United States particularly badly affected.  In the wake of Hurricane Sandy New Yorkers found themselves once again battered by strong winds.  This time round however the assault was mercifully short.  “That’s probably the strangest part”, Mr. Winterbottom told us, “There was no build up.  This weather didn’t gather, it was just suddenly there.  And then just as quickly it dissipated.  It’s almost as if the entire world let out a massive sigh of relief.  We’ve no explanation for it, but we’re calling it the Mitt Romney effect”.
