"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 Arctic regions, with the violence of storms increasing in number and ferocity."

Rescuers desperately search damaged homes for survivors in West Virginia as Obama declares severe flooding which has killed at least 26 a 'major disaster' 

• Obama declared flooding in West Virginia a major disaster and directed White House staff to ensure FEMA is providing all appropriate help
• At least 26 people have died, including two kids, since up to 10 inches of rain started falling in the state Thursday
• Kanawha, Greenbrier and Nicholas counties are three areas most devastated by the flooding
• More than 32,000 homes and businesses are still without power as authorities search and rescue survivors
• The death toll in West Virginia is the highest in any state from flooding this year as it's the worst flooding in more than a century there

President Barack Obama has declared the devastating flooding in West Virginia 'a major disaster' and extended his condolences to the families of the 26 people who lost their lives in the state.

In a statement, White House spokesman Eric Schultz said Obama spoke by phone to Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin on Saturday while returning to Washington, D.C., from Seattle.

Schultz said Obama is committed to ensuring that Tomblin has the federal resources he needs for all recovery efforts. 

The president has directed White House staff to coordinate closely with Tomblin's team to make sure the Federal Emergency Management Agency, known as FEMA, is providing all appropriate assistance.

Heartbreaking: The death toll in West Virginia is the highest in any state from flooding this year as at least 26 people have died. Above West Virginia Natural Resources police officer Chris Lester searches a flooded and damaged home in Rainelle on Saturday

Tomblin asked for a federal major disaster declaration on Saturday for three counties - Kanawha, Greenbrier and Nicholas - which were devastated by the state's worst flooding in more than a century.

The three counties were severely damaged by the flooding that began with heavy rains on Thursday. 

Tomblin said the state would follow up with requests for other counties that also sustained significant damage. 

The scope of damage in those three counties allowed him to make the request immediately, he said in a statement.

A FEMA team is expected to arrive on Saturday to assess the damage in West Virginia where more than 32,000 homes and businesses still were without power.

On Saturday, the PGA announced that the Greenbrier Classic that was to be held at the Greenbrier Resort, a luxury golf course in White Sulphur Springs, from July 7 to 10 is now cancelled.

The course is completely underwater and the resort owner and CEO, Jim Justice told The Weather Channel it would be 'a real mistake' to hold the event after such devastation since some of the heaviest rainfall hit that area. 

The resort, which has been designated a National Historic Landmark, is almost completely submerged underwater.

'It's like nothing I've seen,' said Justice. 'But our focus right now isn't on the property, the golf course or anything else. We're praying for the people and doing everything we can to get them the help they need.'

The resort said all actions are being taken to keep guests and resort employees safe. 

Professional golfer Bubba Watson posted pictures and videos of the flooded course on his Twitter on Friday, writing '1st hole tee shoot not so easy right now!'

Tornado and Hail Kill 98 in China, 800 Injured (Jun 23)

The death toll in eastern China skyrocketed to 98 after a powerful tornado and severe storms hit a densely populated area of farms and factories on Thursday.

Whole villages were levelled and huge trees felled when the tornado hit near the city of Yancheng in Jiangsu province, about 500 miles south of Beijing. Some 800 people were also injured.

The tornado, which struck around 2.30pm on Thursday, and accompanying hailstorms destroyed tens of thousands of houses as well as several manufacturing plants and rice mills.

More than 8,000 rescue workers had been scrambled from across Jiangsu province to join relief efforts, including police officers, active and reserve soldiers and firefighters.

Teacher Guo Haimei said the ferocious wind, blacked with dust and debris, seemed to descend out of nowhere onto her kindergarten and its 120 pupils.

"I was very scared. I had no idea what was happening," said Guo. "When I tried to close the door, my hand was injured by the wind pushing it back."

One day after the storm, rescuers on Friday continued searching for survivors in this densely populated area on the outskirts of the major city of Yancheng in Jiangsu province.

The twister was one of the most extreme weather events witnessed by China in recent years, leaving a swath of destruction with destroyed buildings, smashed trees and flipped vehicles on their roofs. A sprawling solar panel factory was shredded, forcing fire crews to secure toxic materials before they leaked into neighboring waterways.

As the death toll climbed to 98 on Friday, doctors said most of the 800 injured had broken bones and deep lacerations, especially on the head. Medical crews had been rushed to the area, about 800 kilometers (500 miles) south of Beijing.

Rescuers carried hurt villagers into ambulances and delivered food and water, while army units worked to clear roads blocked by trees, downed power lines and other debris. While the weather cleared Friday, forecasters were warning of the possibility of more heavy rain, hailstorms and even additional twisters.

"The people inside tried to run outside, but the wind was too strong so they couldn't," Xintu villager Wang Shuqing told an Associated Press reporter. "My family members were all inside, they all died. The police then came and took the bodies out. I can't bear it."

The disaster was declared a national-level emergency, and on a trip to Uzbekistan on Thursday, Chinese President Xi Jinping ordered the central government to provide all necessary assistance.

President Xi Jinping had ordered "all-out rescue efforts" after what the Xinhua news agency said was one of the worst disasters ever to hit Jiangsu.

It was also the worst tornado to hit China in half a century, it said.

Tents and other emergency supplies were being sent from Beijing, while schools and other facilities were used to shelter survivors, state broadcaster CCTV said.

Cellphone and security camera footage showed the tornado's debris-blackened funnel touching down and golf-ball size hailstones falling thick as rain. Terrified residents who sought to hold back doors that were subsequently blown in spoke of a "black wind" that tore the glass from all windows.

Reports said the tornado struck at about 2:30 p.m. and hit Funing and Sheyang counties on the city's outskirts the hardest, with winds of up to 125 kilometers (78 miles) per hour. Twisters of that magnitude are considered capable of inflicting moderate damage, but the accompanying hailstorm appeared to have also contributed significantly to the destruction that reduced farm buildings to mere piles of bricks and tiles.

Cars and trucks lay upside down, street light poles snapped in half, and steel electricity pylons lay crumpled on their side. Power and telephone communications were knocked out over a broad area.

"It was like the end of the world," local resident Xie Litian told Xinhua.

"I heard the gales and ran upstairs to shut the windows. I had hardly reached the top of the stairs when I heard a boom and saw the entire wall with the windows on it torn away."

“I’m 80 and I’ve never seen a tornado like this,” a man from Shuangqiao village in Yancheng told the local newspaper, Yanfu Daily, on Thursday night.

“After the wind subsided, I found that my house had collapsed entirely. Only a bit of wall, 30cm high, remained standing.”

Tornadoes occasionally strike southern China during the summer, but rarely with the scale of death and damage caused by the one on Thursday. Last year, a freak wind described as a tornado was blamed partly for causing a cruise ship to capsize in the mighty Yangtze River on June 1, killing 442 people.

20 Dead in West Virginia 100-Year Flood, 500,000 Without Power (Jun 24)

A state of emergency has been declared in 44 of 55 counties in West Virginia in the wake of storms and floods that hit the state on Thursday night. Twenty people have died, and hundreds are trapped inside a shopping mall cut off by the flooding.

The death toll from the floods has climbed to 20, a spokesperson for West Virginia's emergency management agency said Friday evening, noting that the hardest hit area is in Greenbrier County in the southeastern part of the state, where 15 people have died.

About 500 people became stranded inside a shopping mall in the town of Elkview, some 12 miles (19km) from the state's capital, Charleston, on Thursday. Employees and customers became trapped inside Crossings Mall after a bridge that connected the center to a main road collapsed.

While the bridge was completely washed out by the severe waters, emergency teams are now working on building a new, temporary one to help people get out of the shopping center.

The relief effort hit a snag after the original temporary bridge built by the National Guard turned out to be too short, reported WSAZ. A new bridge was sent for.

State authorities are building a gravel road to approach the shopping plaza from the other side, but it will not be finished until Saturday afternoon, the governor’s office told RT. Fortunately, people stranded at the shopping center have plenty of food available, and the area still has electricity, RT found out from the state Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.

At least six people were reported dead in the state by Friday morning. Three of the victims, including an elderly man and a woman who was washed away in her vehicle, were from Kanawha County, where Charleston is located.

Two more people died in Greenbrier County, the local sheriff announced on Friday.

In Ohio County, an eight-year-old boy was killed after he slipped into a creek and was carried away, local reports suggested.

Some 500,000 people have been left without power in the state, electric utilities reported.

According to Gov. Tomblin, the flooding is "among the worst in a century for some parts of the state."

West Virginia MetroNews reports that the house was seen floating down Howard’s Creek on Thursday afternoon.

The National Weather Service Office in Blacksburg, Virginia told MetroNews that the 24-hour rainfall total for White Sulphur Springs was 8.17 inches.

The apocalyptic conditions echo similar incidents in other parts of the world—Texas, for example, has seen some of the worst flooding in its history, and rivers in France rose to their highest levels in 50 years in June.

Flash flooding at Cleveland Park Metro station turns escalators into waterfalls in Washington DC

Flash flooding overwhelmed the Cleveland Park Metro station on June 21, 2016, turning the escalators into waterfalls and forcing passengers to slog through standing water.

Trains bypassed the station for about two hours during the flooding in Washington DC.

The flooding turned escalators into waterfalls. 

Metro’s Red Line trains had to temporarily bypass Cleveland Park Tuesday evening at around 6:40 p.m. because of flash flooding.

The DC Subway Station was closed for nearly two hours until the water was drained and cleared at about 8:30 p.m.

The flash floods forced commuters to slog through standing water. 

This station is prone to flooding because it is at the bottom of a hill. In these extreme weather situations, it can be engulfed by flash flooding.

I would get terrified by the idea of drowning alive.
