In a dynamical system "anomalies" are normal. linked paper (first sentence) >We develop a theoretical approach to quantify the effect of long-term trends on the expected number of extremes in generic time series, using analytical solutions and Monte Carlo simulations "weather anomaly/marginally notable event" signified by the "expected number of extremes" In this paper, focused on the extreme heat wave in Moscow and linked to other anomolies in recent news https://www.pnas.org/content/108/44/17905#ref-2 https://www.pnas.org/content/108/44/17905#ref-2 The google scholar link/search seems broken, but I remember reading this when it came out in 2011 and covered a wide range of global heat waves in disparate parts of countries, extreme drought, extreme flooding, wild fires, etc.
