Al Gore blamed Hurricane Katrina, a mere category 3 hurricane by the time it
hit land. In fact:

"FROM the weather satellites it looked every inch an act of God: a giant
doughnut of low pressure and high winds churning towards New Orleans. Four
years on, a judge has ruled that the flooding of the city by Hurricane
Katrina was, in large part, a man-made disaster."

"In a decision that could leave the US Government liable for billions of
dollars in damages, US District Judge Stanwood Duval blamed the US Army
Corps of Engineers for failing to maintain the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet
(MRGO) and allowing the hurricane's storm surge to breach the city's flood
defences."

"It is a remarkable fact that despite the worldwide expenditure of perhaps
US$50 billion since 1990, and the efforts of tens of thousands of scientists
worldwide, no human climate signal has yet been detected that is distinct
from natural variation."

No cyclone, no drowning of the city. So Al Gore was correct to blame
Hurricane Katrina.

He wrongly blamed Katrina on AGW, while at the same time saying that no
particular weather event can be attributed to AGW!!!

If that is what you were trying to claim than annunciate it clearly. You
claimed "Al Gore blamed Hurricane Katrina, a mere category 3 hurricane by
the time it hit land.", Gore was quite correct in saying this.
