I didn't put this question into the ASB section because I'd like to know if it really affects things or not.
Although it's clear that humanity has contributed to global warming and that earthquakes and the times they happen at are inevitable, I'd like to know if a simple historical WI really can affect day-to-day weather events, so that your OTL weather broadcast, assuming it predicts correctly for OTL, might become completely useless if you travel into an ATL. No hurricane on 2005-08-30 in alternate Louisiana? European summer of 2003 with much more rain? Or a climatically similar year in both TLs, but with alternate days to be rainy and sunny?
I ask this question because weather indeed influences history, even if it's not a war battle. Adolf Hitler shortening his putsch anniversary speech on November 9, 1939 and escaping the Munich Beer Hall a mere quarter hour before the one-man-mission-bulit precise time bomb exploded only had to do with concerns of transportation. Weather was bad on that day, so he took the train instead of aircraft to Munich and back and because Hitler wanted to be back in time, he shortened his speech so he could take the relatively slow rail train at an earlier time. No rain on 1939-11-9, and Hitler's assassination would have been perfect. Goddamn it.
PS: Butterfly effect doesn't have to do anything with the butterfly animal flapping its wing differently, but has to do with the guy who discovered the butterfly effect while having to do with butterfly-looking graphs.
