I suppose you already knew that TECHNICALLY the prediction does exist (subject to interpretation):
The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun, and it was given to it to scorch men with fire. Men were scorched with fierce heat; and they blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they did not repent so as to give Him glory.
Revelation 16:8-9 NASB
Though I remain somewhat confused by who you label as “Luddites”. I guess Dr. Francis S. Collins falls into your group if I interpret your comment to refer to someone who believes the Bible.

You need to check those current events. Let’s see… snow… England…
I guess you already forgot the “ancient history” of Feb. 2, 2009 (http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/feb/02/snow-london-travel-chaos). Sure that pales in comparison to 1963 when the Thames froze over and the city received 12-14” of snow. Might not happen OFTEN, but it definitely snows in England.
