"We warned at the start of ZetaTalk, in 1995, that unpredictable weather extremes, switching about from drought to deluge, would occur and increase on a lineal basis up until the pole shift. Where this occurred steadily, it has only recently become undeniable. ZetaTalk, and only ZetaTalk, warned of these weather changes, at that early date. Our early warnings spoke to the issue of global heating from the core outward, hardly Global Warming, a surface or atmospheric issue, but caused by consternation in the core. Affected by the approach of Planet X, which was by then starting to zoom rapidly toward the inner solar system for its periodic passage, the core was churning, melting the permafrost and glaciers and riling up volcanoes. When the passage did not occur as expected in 2003 because Planet X had stalled in the inner solar system, we explained the increasing weather irregularities in the context of the global wobble that had ensued - weather wobbles where the Earth is suddenly forced under air masses, churning them. This evolved by 2005 into a looping jet stream, loops breaking away and turning like a tornado to affect the air masses underneath. Meanwhile, on Planet Earth, droughts had become more intractable and deluges positively frightening, temperature swings bringing snow in summer in the tropics and searing heat in Artic regions, with the violence of storms increasing in number and ferocity."

ZETATALK

 

From the ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for February 4, 2012:

 

The wobble seems to have changed, as the temperature in Europe suddenly plunged after being like an early Spring, Alaska has its coldest temps ever while the US and much of Canada is having an extremely mild winter. India went from fatal cold spell to balmy again. Has the Earth changed position vs a vs Planet X to cause this? [and from another] Bitter cold records broken in Alaska - all time coldest record nearly broken, but Murphy's Law intervenes [Jan 30] http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/01/30/bitter-cold-records-broken-in-alaska Jim River, AK closed in on the all time record coldest temperature of -80°F set in 1971, which is not only the Alaska all-time record, but the record for the entire United States. Unfortunately, it seems the battery died in the weather station just at the critical moment. While the continental USA has a mild winter and has set a number of high temperature records in the last week and pundits ponder whether they will be blaming the dreaded "global warming" for those temperatures, Alaska and Canada have been suffering through some of the coldest temperatures on record during the last week.

There has been no change in the wobble pattern, the wobble has merely become more severe. Nancy noted a Figure 8 format when the Earth wobble first became noticeable, in early 2005, after Planet X moved into the inner solar system at the end of 2003. The Figure 8 shifted along to the east a bit on the globe between 2005 and 2009, (the last time Nancy took its measure) as Planet X came closer to the Earth, encountering the magnetic N Pole with a violent push earlier in the day. But the pattern of the Figure 8 remained essentially the same. So what changed recently that the weather patterns became noticeably different in late January, 2012?

The N Pole is pushed away when it comes over the horizon, when the noon Sun is centered over the Pacific. This regularly puts Alaska under colder air, with less sunlight, and thus the historically low temps there this January, 2012 as the wobble has gotten stronger. But by the time the Sun is positioned over India, the N Pole has swung during the Figure 8 so the globe tilts, and this tilt is visible in the weather maps from Asia. The tilt has forced the globe under the hot air closer to the Equator, warming the land along a discernable tilt demarcation line.

The next loop of the Figure 8 swings the globe so that the N Pole moves in the other direction, putting the globe again at a tilt but this time in the other direction. This tilt is discernable in weather maps of Europe, again along a diagonal line. Depending upon air pressure and temperature differences, the weather on either side of this diagonal line may be suddenly warm or suddenly cold. The tilt and diagonal line lingers to affect much of the US and Canada, but the Figure 8 changes at this point to be an up and down motion, pulling the geographic N Pole south so the US is experiencing a warmer than expected winter under a stronger Sun. Then the cycle repeats, with the magnetic N Pole of Earth pushed violently away again as the Sun is positioned over the Pacific.

 

From the ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for April 6, 2013:

 

Would the Zetas be able to let us know what is causing the early break-up of the Arctic Ice, the ice seems to have taken on a swirling pattern at the same time, would this be wobble related? [and from another] http://www.vancouversun.com/news/national/Canada+Arctic+cracks+spec... The ice in Canada’s western Arctic ripped open in a massive “fracturing event” this spring that spread like a wave across 1,000 kilometres of the Beaufort Sea. Huge leads of water – some more than 500 kilometres long and as much as 70 kilometres across – opened up from Alaska to Canada’s Arctic islands as the massive ice sheet cracked as it was pushed around by strong winds and currents. It took just seven days for the fractures to progress across the entire area from west to east. [and from another] http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=80752&src=iot... A high-pressure weather system was parked over the region, producing warmer temperatures and winds that flowed in a southwesterly direction. That fueled the Beaufort Gyre, a wind-driven ocean current that flows clockwise. The gyre was the key force pulling pieces of ice west past Point Barrow, the northern nub of Alaska that protrudes into the Beaufort Sea.


The Figure 8 formed by the N Pole during the daily Earth wobble has shifted somewhat to the East, due to Planet X positioned more to the right of the Earth during its approach. This was anticipated, and well described in ZetaTalk, the Earth crowding to the left in the cup to escape the approach of Planet X, so the angle between these two planets would change slightly. This shift of the Figure 8 to the East is due to the push against the Earth’s magnetic N Pole occurring sooner each day than prior. Thus instead of occurring when the Sun is high over the Pacific, over New Zealand, it is now occurring when the Sun is high over Alaska. All the wobble points have shifted eastward accordingly.

This has brought a lingering Winter to the western US, and a changed sloshing pattern to the Arctic waters. Instead of Pacific waters being pushed through the Bering Straits into the Arctic when the polar push occurs, the wobble is swinging the Arctic to the right, and then later to the left, creating a circular motion in the waters trapped in the Arctic. Since the Earth rotates counterclockwise, the motion also takes this path. This is yet another piece of evidence that the establishment is hard pressed to explain. They are attempting to ascribe this to high pressure and wind, all of which are not new to the Arctic, but this circular early breakup of ice in the Arctic is new.

With a stunning 7 million acres burned so far, the U.S. wildfire situation is looking dire

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/energy-environment/wp/2015/08/18...

Wildfires are exploding across the western United States, overstretching resources and, in some states, resulting in tragic consequences.

Some 30,000 firefighters and additional support staff are now fighting fires across the United States — the biggest number mobilized in 15 years, according to the U.S. Forest Service. And it’s still not enough.

Two hundred members of the military are being called up to help further — they will be trained and deployed within just a few days — as are Canadian firefighting forces. There’s even some talk of potentially needing to draw on resources from Australia and New Zealand, which has been done before in a pinch.

And no wonder: Five states are now battling more than 1o large wildfires — California is contending with 16, Idaho 21, Montana 14, Oregon 11 and Washington 17. Most terrifying, perhaps, is the Soda Fire, which has scorched 283,686 acres in Idaho, burning up ranches, killing wild horses, even generating an alarming  fire whirl recently.

The total acres burned so far in 2015 is now a staggering 7.1 million, with currently burning fires accounting for over 1 million of that total. “This is the earliest the number of national acres burned has been more than 7 million in the past 20 years,” notes the National Interagency Coordination Center — although the center acknowledges that 5 million of those acres burned in Alaska earlier this year.

There is no year, in the past 10, in which year-to-date wildfire acres burned were as high as they are now. In fact, based on records provided by the National Interagency Fire Center, only nine years since 1960 have seen more acres burned in total than 2015 has as of August 18. The most acres burned in any year on record is 9,873,745, in 2006.

The United States is at wildfire preparedness Level 5 — the highest — and has been since Aug. 13.

What has been particularly alarming in the past day or so is developments in Montana and Idaho, battling 35 large fires between them, including the gargantuan Soda Fire. In these states and in the Pacific Northwest, fires are being started by thunderstorms that are delivering lightning strikes without much rain.

weekend video showing deputy incident commander Rob Allen discussing fires in the Chelan area of Washington State gives a sense of what firefighting planners are currently facing. As Allen put it:

Competition for resources right now is extremely tight. As of yesterday there was outstanding orders for crews of 160 crews. They’re still looking for, there are no more shower units, there are no more catering units. A lot of the stuff we rely on to come in and give us a hand is being used….The truth of the matter right now is that between Oregon, Washington, Northern California, Idaho got very busy, Nevada’s busy, Colorado’s busy, there’s just a real strain in all the resources we have right now.

And that was several days ago — the situation appeared to have heightened even further Tuesday.

The gigantic convulsion of fire activity makes a report released two weeks ago, by the U.S. Forest Service, seem prescient. The agency sounded the alarm about rising wildfire costs, saying that fighting fires will consume more than 50 percent of its budget this year and could be up to two thirds of it by the year 2025, based on current trends.

According to the Forest Service, the U.S. spends $ 100 million per week when it is at wildfire preparedness level 5, as it is now.

Denver ties the record low temperature on Tuesday for Aug 18th with a very chilly 47F or 8C


While we have been reporting insane temperatures recently spare a thought for people living in Denver who also endured an insane temperature yesterday....Equalling a record  low.
The previous record temperature of 47 degrees was set in 1960.
The average low for Aug. 18 is 58 degrees.
The record high for Aug. 18 was most recently set in 2013 when temperatures hit 98 degrees.
The average high for Aug. 18 is 87 degrees.
 Coincidentally, Denver tied the record high this past Saturday at 98 degrees.
That record was also last set in 1960 also.
A weather system is moving across the US pulling cold air down from the north and hitting warm air from the south bringing hot weather on the east side, storms in the middle and record lows for the west.

Scorched Earth Update! Record busting temperatures for Phoenix: 92 dead in one week in Egypt


US Phoenix
Area pools were certainly the place to be this past weekend while air conditioning units were working overtime as the Valley continued to bake in record heat.
Friday's high of 117 shattered the previous record for Aug. 14 by four degrees and tied the all-time mark for the month of August.
It was the hottest day in the Valley since the mercury reached 119 in 2013.
Saturday didn't fare much better as Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport set a new record of 115, breaking the old one of 112 set in 1992.
The record heat has also put a strain on the electrical grid. According to APS, power usage was high with 7,060 megawatts being used which was close to setting a record. However, SRP did set a record Saturday with 6,806 megawatts being used which is an all-time record according to the utility.
In Glendale, 11 people had to be transported from University of Phoenix Stadium where the Arizona Cardinals were hosting the Kansas City Chiefs with heat related illnesses.
The National Weather Service issued an excessive heat warning for much of southwestern and central Arizona for the entire weekend as temperatures are expected to be in excess of 110.
Meanwhile For New York City, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and others in the surrounding areas, Monday's highs will make a heat wave official.
A heat wave is declared in the Northeast when temperatures reach or exceed 90 F on three consecutive days.
San Diego
A heat wave that began Friday with triple-digit temperatures in parts of San Diego County, and prompted the county of San Diego to extend weekend hours at its library branch in Borrego Springs. A National Weather Service excessive heat warning for the deserts took effect at 1 p.m. Friday, with temperatures topping 110 degrees in some areas during the afternoon.
A less severe heat advisory for the mountains and valleys also took effect, with both scheduled to expire at 9 p.m. Monday.
Because the toasty temperatures are expected to increase in the next few days, the county encouraged San Diegans to take advantage of "cool zones," designated public places with air conditioning that are scattered around the region.
The NWS forecast a high temperature of 116 degrees Saturday and Sunday for Borrego Springs. Highs could even reach 120 degrees in some low desert areas, according to forecasters.
Canada
A heat warning has been issued for the City of Toronto and parts of the GTA as scorching weather arrives in the region.
According to the national weather agency, at the height of the heat Saturday, the temperature is expected to feel like 35 C. (95 degrees F)
The temperature will continue to climb on Sunday and Monday. "Sunday and Monday are expected to be hot and humid.
Daytime high temperatures are expected to be in the low thirties with maximum humidex values near forty," Environment Canada's weather advisory read.
Egypt
Five people who died in Egypt of sunstroke brought the number of deaths in a week from a heatwave to 92, the Health Ministry says.
The latest deaths occurred on Friday in Cairo and three provinces in southern Egypt.
Most of the 92 victims were elderly.
The heatwave is Egypt's worst in nearly four decades, according to the state-run Meteorology Office. August is usually a hot month in Egypt, but this year temperatures have been higher than average, reaching 40 degrees in Cairo and 46 in southern Egypt.

Pacific: Goni and Atsani Two new typhoons

News - Updated Sunday, August 16, 2015 by The Weather Channel- LA CHAINE METEO

After a pause, hurricane activity is growing again in the North Pacific. Two tropical storms (named Goni and Atsnai) developed Friday. They are past the stage of typhoon on Sunday.

http://actualite.lachainemeteo.com/actualite-meteo/2015-08-16-11h25...

https://translate.google.com.ar/translate?sl=fr&tl=en&js=y&...

These two typhoons reinforce very quickly. Remarkably, they follow to a few hundred kilometers, one behind the other.

Goni was born off the island Guam. Its trajectory is monitored. Indeed, it is expected that the typhoon is getting stronger, reaching category 4/5 typhoon stage, heading to Asia. The northern Philippines and Taiwan are on course. He could hit both islands Friday and Saturday. We closely monitor the evolution of the typhoon, the intensity could be comparable to that of Soudelor typhoon that ravaged the island of Taiwan in early August.

Atsani closely Goni but it is safer. Although Goni strengthens and reach the level 4/5 Wednesday he will pass wide of inhabited land, before heading to Japan, while losing its activity.

Scorched earth: 76 dead in Egypt 17 in Sudan as insane temperatures continue around the globe


Slovakia
The Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute (SHMU) has issued a country-wide extreme heat alert, with meteorologists estimating that this will remain in place until the end of the week, reported by local news agency TASR on Thursday.
"It happens sometimes that we issue the highest degree alert for dangerous phenomena, such as gales and storms, but an alert that is issued for the whole of Slovakia is very rare and most probably has never been done before," said Pavol Zaujec of SHMU's meteorological forecasts and alerts department.
The high temperatures can be expected to continue. In northern parts of the country temperatures have reached 34 degree Celsius, while in southern districts they've even touched 38 degree.
In Northern Slovakia people aren't used to temperatures of around 35 degree.
"If such dry and extremely hot weather goes on for a number of consecutive days, it is reflected immediately in an increased incidence of heat strokes and even in a quickly growing number of deaths," stressed climatologist Jozef Pecho.
US
The National Weather Service has declared an excessive heat warning over Havasu this Sunday, as temperatures of 114 degrees are expected.
High temperatures throughout Lake Havasu City are expected exceed 110 degrees today through Tuesday, when temperatures will descend to 108 degrees.
According to the National Weather Service, temperatures will remain at dangerous levels throughout the Western and Southern U.S., where excessive heat watches and warnings are in effect.
The Weather Service advises that residents take extra precautions when working or venturing outside.
Sudan
Nine people reportedly died of heatstroke over the past three days in the hospital of Wadi Halfa, Sudan, owing to a heat wave that is sweeping the country.
Mohamed Hassan Shanan, medical director of the Wadi Halfa hospital told reporters on Wednesday, that the authorities have increased electricity supplies to the hospital in order to cover the growing number of patients because of the heatwave.
"Nevertheless nine of them died."
A staff member of the hospital told Radio Dabanga this afternoon that four new cases were brought in today, "in a very bad condition".
The daily temperature has risen to above 46 degrees Celsius for a week, which makes August the hottest month in the area for years.
Egypt
Egypt's health minister says 17 more people have died due to an "unprecedented" heat wave, raising this week's death toll to 76.
Health Minister Adel el-Adawy said Thursday that the deaths are mostly among the elderly, and include eight patients of a psychiatric hospital.
El-Adawy says 1,205 people are in hospitals being treated for heat exhaustion.
El-Adawy dismissed rumors of a meningitis epidemic when pressed on the escalating death toll.
The Mideast has been in the grip of a heat wave since late July.
Egyptian summers are usually hot, but temperatures this week soared to 46 degrees Celsius (114 degrees Fahrenheit) in the south.

South-easterly winds that will hit the centre of the country from tomorrow threaten to affect coastal regions of the Rio de la Plata and could cause further flooding to affected areas, as 2000 people continued evacuated due to the effect of heavy rains. At least three people have died and many more are unable to return to homes due to the floods. Salto, in the north of Buenos Aires province, was one of the hardest hit as waters reached 9.30 metres in height, and around 700 were forced to leave. Santa Fe province, with 300 evacuees, has also been affected by the disaster.

National Meteorological Service (SMN) announcer Silvia Gomez explained to Telam that "tomorrow the win will be blowing from the eastern sector early, but from 9am it will begin to rotate towards the south east, principally affecting the Rio de la Plata, the Parana delta and the east of Buenos Aires province with speeds between 45 and 70 kilometres per hour, with heavy gusts." "The most intense winds will fall upon the coastal zones," she added. Alongside the fierce gusts, more rain is forecast throughout tomorrow and for Thursday morning.

"In this case it is not just the amount of rainfall which is important, but also the intensity of river level rises for the persistence of winds, as it could affect City neighbourhoods like Palermo as well as coastal Buenos Aires cities like Quilmes.

Scorched Earth Update: 42 dead from heat in Egypt! New record highs for Poland Hungary and Czech Republic: Devastating wild fires Spain and Portugal


Much of central and eastern Europe is in the grip of a heatwave, with several countries breaking record temperatures, that may persist for at least another week to ten days.
Third degree heat alert - the highest level - is issued for the entire territory of Hungary.
The heat has been a problem for the fourth time this year.
The temperature and power consumption is breaking all records.
Poland reached a new high yesterday when the mercury tipped 38 degrees Celsius, with some rivers reported almost dried up around Warsaw.
Electricity supplies were cut to homes and businesses just when it was needed the most.
The Czech Republic recorded a new high of 40 degree Celsius near Prague.
Portugal and Spain reached 40 degree Celsius with wildfires out of control devastating the countryside
A scorching heatwave gripped Egypt this week, killing at least 42 people, including a German resident, patients in a psychiatric hospital and detainees, officials said Tuesday.
Egyptian summers are usually hot, but this week's temperatures in the south soared to 44 degrees Celsius (111 degrees Fahrenheit).
The Health Ministry said 21 people died from the heat on Sunday, when temperatures topped 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) in the country's north.
Nineteen more died on Monday, authorities said, mostly elderly citizens.
A German national living in the southern city of Luxor died on Tuesday from heatstroke, according to security official Essam el-Desouki. Egypt's official MENA news agency said he was in his sixties. A 62-year old Egyptian in the southern city of Assiut also died Tuesday, health official Ahmed Anwar said.
Most of the fatalities - at least 26 - were in Cairo, a crowded, sprawling city of at least 18 million. Three patients at a psychiatric hospital north of Cairo were also among the dead.
Three detainees in a jail north of Cairo died because of the heat, said a security official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to reporters.
Egyptian prisons and detention facilities are notoriously overcrowded.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to reporters. Compounding the woes from the heatwave was a widespread power outage Tuesday in several Cairo neighbourhood's that lasted a few hours and briefly brought the city's subway to a halt.
The Ministry of Electricity blamed the outage on increased consumption that briefly knocked out a power transformer in western Cairo.
In rural and southern Egypt, power cuts are usual

Fishing areas closed by province as heat, low water threaten species

Numerous southern Alberta rivers and streams off limits until further notice

The province has ordered several fishing spots off limits as heat and low water levels threaten many species.

The province has ordered several fishing spots off limits as heat and low water levels threaten many species. 

The province is taking the unusual step of closing several fishing spots to protect fish populations as temperatures soar.

Alberta Environment and Parks says the heat and low water levels are a threat to many species.

Sandy Beach park

The water is low on the Elbow River at Sandy Beach park in southwest Calgary. (

These areas are closed to all fishing until further notice:

  • Sheep River from headwaters to Highwood River.
  • Highwood River from headwaters to Bow River.
  • St. Mary River, downstream of the St. Mary Reservoir and tributaries.
  • Belly River, downstream of Secondary Road 800.
  • Bow River from Bearspaw Reservoir to the W.H.D. Weir.
  • Bow River from W.H.D Weir to the Carseland Weir.
  • Bow River from Carseland Weir to Highway 24 bridge.
  • Bow River from Highway 24 bridge downstream to Bassano Dam.
  • Elbow River from Glenmore Reservoir to the Bow River confluence.

"Angling in these areas presents a high risk to fish populations and may result in mortalities, even when using catch and release practices," the province said in a release.

All fisheries research licenses for these areas have also been temporarily suspended.

The province is also extending its July 30 advisory to fish with extra caution in these areas:

  • Castle River and tributaries from Highway 3 upstream to Westcastle River.
  • Oldman River from Racehorse Creek downstream to Oldman Reservoir; and from Highway 2 near Fort Macleod downstream to Secondary Road 509.
  • Crowsnest River from Crowsnest Lake downstream to Oldman Reservoir.
  • Belly River downstream of Secondary Road 800.
  • Waterton River, downstream of Waterton Reservoir.
  • Waterton River, upstream of the Waterton Reservoir including tributaries.
  • St. Mary River upstream, of the St. Mary Reservoir, including Lee Creek.

A world on fire! Record heatwaves continue to be registered around the globe


Roads melt in India as a heatwave in June caused nearly 3,000 deaths
Austria
According to earlier reports, the month of July has also been the hottest in Austria in the 248 years since temperatures have been recorded, the Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics (ZAMG) said.
Two heavy heat waves that took maximum temperatures up to 38 degrees Celsius are largely responsible, according to ZAMG climatologist Robert Klonner, who said the temperatures across the country were three degrees hotter than the long-term average for the month.
Klonner said in some parts of the country it was not only the hottest July on record, but the hottest month ever recorded.
The number of hours of sunshine for the month was also a significant 20 percent higher than the long-term average across the country, while 20 percent less rain than average was recorded.
Slovakia
Paramedics went out on a call to rescue people in Slovakia collapsing from heat 729 times total between Monday morning and Friday evening, confirmed Jozef Minar of the Slovak Emergency Medical Service Operational Center on Saturday.
Statistics were ratcheted up significantly by Friday, when paramedics had to treat 110 heat-induced collapses.
Heat warnings in Slovakia are still in place, as peak temperatures ranged between 35-37 degrees Celsius.
According to the Slovak Hydrometeorological Office, temperature peaks are forecast to reach up to 38 degrees Celsius at some locations on Sunday and Monday.
Germany
The heat is set to last well into next week as slow moving storms to the north-west of the British Isles and high pressure over eastern Europe combine to create the sweltering conditions.
Temperatures in Berlin, Germany soared to 35C yesterday, while forecasters at AccuWeather have predicted that today will be the city's hottest day of the week with possible highs of 38C, close to the highest temperature ever recorded in Berlin of 38.1C in 1959.
Egypt
At least 21 people have died and 66 others suffered exhaustion in Egypt due to a severe heat wave that is sweeping across the Arab country.
Fifteen people have died in the capital Cairo, four in Matrouh city and two in the Upper Egyptian city of Qena, the Ministry of Health said in a statement yesterday.
The temperature reached 39 degrees celsius in Cairo and 45 degrees celsius in the Upper Egypt governorates on Saturday, according to the Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA).
The people have been advised to keep away from the direct sunlight.
The heat wave is expected to continue until August 25.
Poland
Warsaw set a new all-time August high temperature record on Saturday when the temperature peaked at 36.6 C (97.9 F)
The previous record was 36.4 C (97.5 F) from August 1994, according to AccuWeather Meteorologist Tyler Roys.
Following six straight days of temperatures 32 C (90 F) or higher, the heat will back off slightly on Monday with a high of 30.6 C (87 F).
Temperatures soar again on Tuesday as another streak of 32 C (90 F) or greater high temperatures begins.
This stretch of heat is expected to continue into next week
US
Dangerous heat will continue from portions of northern Kansas and Missouri southward to the Gulf Coast where widespread heat indices will be over 100F.
Locations through the Lower Mississippi Valley could see heat indices as high as 110F
