Introduction

Everyone needs a good laugh now and then. I couldn't possibly enjoy the weather without injecting some humour into what I think of it. The first "serious" weather joker I knew was Allan Rosenberg of Negative Tilt, former Gilbertzone and it sorta inspired me to create *something* for everyone. NT was peppered with lots of chaser jargon and lots of people who aren't into chasing don't make anything out of it. So, I collected any weather-related joke I found in magazines, web sites, e-mails the notorious e-mail list WX-CHASE, joke books or anything I heard and created this page. The page has grown three times it's length over the months. I've also made up a few while watching exceptionally boring stratus clouds on "Twister" or just outside my window...

Announcements

Where I live... tropical, sunny Singapore. Plenty of rain. Mild. Very mild. Most citizens are generally immune to our weather... but deep down inside, I guess they're really weather nuts. This has to do with a local dessert called the "ice kachang"...

Negative Tilt
Check this out! But wait, first you have to understand storm chasers, or you'll think them as some bunch of idiots making senseless jokes out of morphed Gilbert characters photos of fellow chasers...
Positive Tilt
"Positive Tilt is not in the slightest bit affiliated in any way with Negative Tilt...Positive Tilt makes no promises of regular updates...Flames and other correspondence can be sent here. If he would update Negative Tilt, there would be no need for Positive Tilt..."

Wacky Weather

Dry Humour

Mark Twain once said, "A banker is a fellow who lend you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain."

Here's one Twain encounter with an umbrella.

Mark Twain was trying to get rid of one wreck of an umbrella. He threw it into a trash can, but someone recognised it and returned it to him. So, he threw it into a deep well. But someone repairing the well recognised it and returned it to him. He tried several ways to get rid of the umbrella, but it always came back. Finally, he lent it to a friend and then he never saw it again.

One day, I was in a restaurant when I saw a young man go over to a table at which an elderly woman sat, and pick up a magazine that lay in front of her.
"Allow me," he said, "after all, you're still reading the newspaper." Then, he returned to his seat.
The old lady clamly finished reading the newspaper and got up to leave.
When she passed the young man's table, she picked up his umbrella and said, "Allow me, after all, you still have the magazine to keep yourself dry with."

One rancher to another: "In this terrible drought, our cattle have become so thin that we don't brand 'em anymore. We just photocopy 'em."

Someone once said...
Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.
