We went through this with landphoon and landcane some years back. This term originated with one person, and verges on WP:OR. Newspapers and blogs we've deemed usable for real time weather events, but not actual meteorological terms, certainly not after seven years. Those require dictionary definitions that are authoritative, such as from a national weather organization or a professional organization like the American Meteorological Society. While there are a few refereed papers vaguely defining the term, the ones I've found are by one author and refer to it as a nickname rather than a proper meteorological term. Without a real, published, non-blog and non-newspaper source, I'd suggest deletion. Otherwise, I have dozens of meteorological terms we can add that are similarly "sourced".

A question no one seems to ask
I wonder why no one seems to inquire about possible causality between China's (and, to some extent, India's) gargantuan air pollution and the occurrence of The RRR? Masses of China's heavily polluted air do not vanish and have a tendency to move North-East towards North America [1]. Whether they impact N-E Pacific water temperatures and air pressures there (I would assume so, taking into account kilotons of pollutants fuming from China factories' stacks) or not is an open (or so it seems) question that those with some cognitive curiosity might wish to answer. 172.88.206.28 (talk) 00:59, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
