I'm pretty sure that you can find one researcher, somewhere, who will agree with anything you say, including that the weather is being affected by a war between Martians and the people living inside the hollow earth. Especially if you're offering a large bribe to said researcher to make a statement about something outside their field while they're somewhat drunk, and then mutilating their remark out of context via the process fondly known as journalism.
In other words, "one researcher" predicting something is pretty much worthless.
