two bob watch

crazy or hysterical.

a "bob" was a shilling in Australia before 1966 when the country changed to decimal currency. The two shilling coin was replaced by the 20 cent piece. A watch which cost only two bob is likely to be unreliable .

under the weather

During the days when ships were powered by sail, the captains log documented everything that happended during the day. As sickness could spread rapidly on a ship,there were often times where the number of sailers that were ill exceeded the space provided in the log to record their names. During these times, the excess names of the sick were recorded in the next column, which was reserved for the weather conditions of the day. Thus, it was not unusal for an ill sailor to be listed "under the weather".

Don't get too close to Ahab, he is under the weather today.

kamikaze weather

Very cold weather, so named from the nasty nip in the air.

Fellow 1: Brrrr. It's bitterly cold out there, old bean.
Fellow 2: I couldn't agree more. It's definitely kamikaze weather. Wouldn't want to go out in it, that's for sure.

weather porn

(noun) Footage of severe weather causing damage or incredible phenomena, which are enjoyable and gratifying to the viewers. Weather porn is a common product of storm chasers and news stations. Tornadoes are by far the most common subject of weather porn, but hurricanes, thunderstorms and flooding events can produce effective weather porn. Some weather porn may involve no damage, such as a view of the storm itself. In this context, a good money shot is a closeup of the storm doing damage.

Weather-related video clips that include title/keywords such as "Incredible," "Amazing," "Deadly" and other superlatives are often a good marker of weather porn.

The Super Outbreak of 2011 seemed to result in a similar outbreak of weather porn!
