"We warned at the start of ZetaTalk, in 1995, thatunpredictable 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."
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-alaskaJim 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.
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.

UPDATE 3: Heavy rain leaves at least 11 dead in Delta villages, disrupts ports in Alexandria: VIDEO EGYPT
Ahram Online , Wednesday 4 Nov 2015
Alexandria governorate announced that Thursday will be an official day off; Egypt's PM delegates governors of North Sinai and Beheira to decide whether to declare Wednesday and Thursday days off as well

Egypt's inclement weather left at least 11 dead on Wednesday in three villages situated west of Nile Delta, with homes flooded and traffic disrupted in different areas across the country for a second time in less than a fortnight.
Eight of the victims died in Wadi El-Natroun city's Afoun, two in Abou Homos and one in El-Rahamnia, according to Ahram Online's correspondent. All three villiages are located in Beheria governorate.
Three of the victims died after being electrocuted by light poles, the same way several people had been killed in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria last month when it had been flooded.
High winds and heavy rains in Wadi El-Natroun also led to the injury of 19 people. All the injured were transferred to a hospital in the village.
Egypt's Prime Minister Sherif Ismail headed to Wadi El-Natroun to check on rescue and aid efforts in the city.
Meanwhile, Alexandria governorate announced that Thursday will be an official day off after heavy rains on Wednesday once again flooded it.
Rainstorms have pummelled Alexandria since Tuesday, leaving streets flooded and causing traffic disruption.
Tens of Alexandria residents in the Airport area blocked the Agricultural Road to protest the flooding of their houses.
Alexandria and Dekheila ports were closed for the second day to prevent collisions between boats or with the port's docks.
On 25 October, five people were killed in Alexandria when heavy rains flooded the city. Governor Hani El-Mesery handed in his resignation on the same day after facing a wave of criticism.
Rain and thunderstorms also hit North Sinai on Wednesday, flooding many of the governorate's roads.
Ismail delegated the governors North Sinai and Beheira to decide whether to declare Wednesday and Thursday days off for public employees and schools due to harsh weather conditions.
Most parts of Egypt including Cairo will witness rainy weather on Wednesday and a drop of 5-6 degrees Celsius.
All countries, these days, seem in disarray. Yesterday it happened to Israel, which continues to be covered by a blanket of haze due to the excessive heat so that airlines Arkia and Israir have been forced to suspend flights due to poor visibility.
Although there have been no problems at the international airport of Ben Gurion, we were closed airports in Eilat in the far south of the country and to Sde Dov in Tel Aviv. The authorities have also detected high levels of pollution, but the next rain should rectify the situation.
Cyclone Chapala Hammers YemenWith Several Years Worth of Rain (Nov 3)
The coast of Yemen, an area unaccustomed to dealing with the devastation of tropical systems, has taken a direct hit from the powerful and dangerous Cyclone Chapala.
Satellite estimates show some areas near the coastline received as much as 8 or 9 inches of rainfall from Chapala. Those areas only get about 4 inches of rain per year, on average.
As Chapala made landfall Tuesday, it dumped enormous amounts of rainfall on the arid coast – as much as a decade's worth, according to some forecasts. This caused major flooding and swamped entire towns.
"The wind knocked out power completely in the city and people were terrified. Some residents had to leave their homes and escape to higher areas where flooding was less," according to Mukalla resident Sabri Saleem.
While numerous tropical systems have formed in the Arabian Sea, it is uncommon for a storm the strength of Chapala to occur so far south and west. Chapala was the equivalent of a low-end Category 4 hurricane as it passed by Socotra.
Reliable records, which only go back about 30 years, show no landfalls by hurricane-strength tropical cyclones in Yemen. Chapala, which was the equivalent of a Category 1 hurricane early Tuesday, had at one point been the second strongest storm ever recorded in the Arabian Sea.
At NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, the data was used to create an image that showed IMERG rainfall estimates from Oct. 28 at 18:00 UTC to Nov. 3 at 08:30 UTC for Yemen, the Gulf of Aden and the surrounding region in association with Cyclone Chapala.
IMERG showed rainfall amounts between 5 to 15 inches over south central Yemen and along the coast to the right of where Chapala made landfall. Areas in eastern Yemen appear to have received at least 3 inches of rain. The highest total over Yemen was 398 mm (~16 inches).
Most of these totals are the equivalent of a year's worth of precipitation or more.
Chapala is likely the strongest cyclone to impact the island in over 100 years. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's tropical database, the last time a hurricane-equivalent cyclone came this close to Socotra was in 1922. The previous occurrence before that was a cyclone in 1885 and both of those storms were only the equivalent of a Category 1 hurricane.
The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, in its routine monthly Desert Locust Bulletin issued Tuesday, said heavy rains from Cyclone Chapala "are likely to result in favourable ecological conditions" for the growth of desert locusts in the central part of the country. The bulletin warned those conditions "could last well into next spring."
Before hitting the mainland, Chapala sideswiped the Yemeni island of Socotra on Sunday. At least three people were killed and more than 200 were injured on Socotra, according to Emirates 24/7. There was also a huge loss of property on the island, the report added.
An estimated 20,000 people were reportedly evacuated from coastal areas and close to 400 houses were damaged or destroyed, Relief Web reported.
"The damage is enormous and we fear human losses," Socotra Island Minister of Fisheries Fahd Kafain told Emirates 24/7.

Storms so severe hit Australia this weekend that the disaster line stretched all the way from Queensland to Gippsland, something unseen in years. The internet was flooded with accounts of sunny weather turning into destructive greyness.
The aftermath of the multiple storms left a trail of havoc from Queensland, through New South Wales and on to Victoria, emergency services said. As of early Sunday morning, Victoria was still under siege.
According to ABC, citing the Victorian State Emergency Service (SES), the New South Wales-Victorian border saw trees uprooted and houses badly damaged.
"This was a very broad line of storms, that extended basically from Queensland down towards Gippsland," senior forecaster at the Bureau of Meteorology Richard Carolyn told Huffington Post Australia.
"It's rare to see a storm line stretch that far. It can happen, you need a very active low pressure trough to extend right through that distance."
The interesting part was that, while many initially thought they had seen a tornado, places like Strathmerton actually saw “strong down bursts out of the thunderstorm,” Carolyn said. Despite the difference in words, the roofs of 10 houses there were ripped clean off.
There were 120 calls for help to emergency services on Sunday; twenty further calls related to property damage, with another 35 complaining of fallen trees blocking roads and damaging power lines.
"We did record gusts of 90kmp/h in Shepparton and 117kmp/h in the southern NSW town of Hay,”he added.
The situation was different in Nathalia, south of Strathmerton.
Each area saw a different side to the disaster. Sydney, for example, witnessed hail the size of golf balls.
But Australians weren’t thrown off their game completely – it’s the time of the year when storms occur, just before spring. The state of Victoria gets about one to three a year.
Agencies were issuing severe wind, hail and storm warnings all weekend. According to experts speaking to ABC, Monday brings hope of calmer winds and less humidity, but the situation could take several days to really calm down.

Man missing following Algarve floods, many left homeless
Several people were left homeless in Albufeira on Sunday evening following flash floods which struck southern Portugal around lunchtime. Commuters were also facing delays of several hours, with delays at Faro airport and train stations of around two hours.
A number of roads were also closed by civil protection authorities after the heavy rains which have now moved north towards Lisbon.
According to the Albufeira Town Hall, the exact number of people who will be provided alternative accommodation overnight had not yet been ascertained on Sunday evening, with the city particularly hard hit by the heavy rains which fell between 10am and 3pm.
On the same day that thick fog enveloped the country and grounded hundreds of flights and Heathrow, the UK experienced the hottest November day on record - with some parts of the UK experiencing higher temperatures than southern Portugal.
According to the Met Office, temperatures on Sunday 1 November in Trawsgoed, Wales, were the hottest ever recorded in the UK in November - the temperature peaked at 22.3C, hotter than Barcelona and the Algarve.
The previous November temperature record was set in 1946, when it got up to 21.7C in Prestatyn, Wales. To put that in perspective, the average maximum temperature in the UK is 10 to 13C.
According to the Met Office, Sunday's new record could be broken again on Monday - meterorologist Nicola Willis said there was a 20 per cent chance that the record could be broken again at some point on 2 November, as southerly winds bring in warm air from Europe. Despite the record-breaking temperatures, Sunday started off foggy for most the country, and stayed that way in some parts throughout the day.
British Airways cancelled at least 20 flights from Heathrow and more than a dozen arrivals at London City Airport due to fog on Sunday.
With more fog disruption expected on Monday, the UK could be in for a continued spell of bizarre weather.

Two tornadoes have hit Texas with the rains and flooding that have killed two people while two others remain missing. Meteorologists have issued a warning for today in the Houston and Austin hit by heavy rains and winds while in eastern Texas are 44 thousand people have so far remained without electricity. Also activated the emergency services in areas affected by floods. The two victims of the bad weather, Austin and San Antonio, were dragged by the wave of water, while a woman and a man are missing. 40 flights also canceled due to bad weather which caused damage to several homes in the east of the state.
In addition, lightning struck a WSR-88D Doppler radar from the National Weather Service in Brownsville, the technician Derek Urch managed to capture the exact moment.
Cyclone Chapala became the strongest tropical system on record so far south in the Arabian Sea and may make an extremely rare landfall at hurricane strength along the coast of Yemen Monday or Tuesday.
Chapala remained a Category 4 cyclone Saturday evening after rapidly intensifying to a high-end Category 4 early Friday.
There is no record of a cyclone of Category 4 strength or stronger tracking as far south as Chapala in the Arabian Sea.
Satellite imagery Saturday showed an impressive eyewall with a tiny eye only about nine miles wide, roughly the size of Hurricane Patricia, which became the most intense hurricane of record in the western hemisphere roughly a week ago.
While direct measurements from reconnaissance aircraft are not available over the Arabian Sea, Chapala's rate of intensification from a high-end tropical storm to a high-end Category 4 cyclone in 24 hours was quite impressive for this part of the world.
The south coasts of Yemen and southwest Oman are fronted by hills and mountains. Moist air from Chapala slamming into those mountains may wring out rainfall totals in excess of 20 inches in those locations.
Rivers running from these mountains that are normally dry or feature very low flow would see rapid rises with rainfall of this magnitude. Destructive and deadly mudslides, debris flows, and flash flooding is likely immediately before, and sometime after landfall of Chapala in central and eastern Yemen.
In short, Chapala may be one of Yemen's costliest natural disasters on record.
Parts of northern Somalia and areas along the Juba and Shabelle River basins in Somalia and in the Ethiopian Highlands have experienced heavy rains following the start of the Deyr rains earlier this month. The Deyr is a season of short rains that usually runs from October to December.
Somalia Water and Land Information Management (SWALIM) say that “heavy rains are expected to continue in the Ethiopian highlands, Hiraan, Middle Shabelle, Galgaduud and Mudug regions over the coming days. Other areas that may record moderate rains include parts of Lower Shabelle, Bakool and Bay regions”.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) report that initial assessments suggest around 60,000 people have been affected by flooding across 6 regions of the country; Banadir region (5,000), Bay region (12,000), Lower Juba region (6,000), Middle Shabelle region (28,000), Gedo region (1,800) and Mudug region (10,000).

El Niño Expected to Increase Flood Risk
OCHA say that, while flooding is recurrent during this time of the year in low-lying areas of Somalia, El Niño conditions have intensified in 2015 and are likely to lead to a wetter than normal Deyr season in parts of the country.
SWALIM suggest that floods triggered by El Niño could affect up to 900,000 people along Somalia’s rivers.
Brazil Floods – Over 200,000 Affected in Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul
The flood situation in southern Brazil continues and is now affecting over 200,000 people across the states of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina.
Rio Grande do Sul
The Civil Defense of Rio Grande do Sul reported that 132 towns and cities have been affected by flooding and rainstorms since the beginning of the month. About 177,000 people have been affected in total across the state, where over 7,500 families are currently displaced or homeless.
The rain forced the Guaíba River to break its banks, causing its second worst-ever overflow, according to Agência Brasil. Some of the worst hit parts of the city are the poorer areas, such as bairro Guarujá, where the mayor, José Fortunati, visited last week.

Santa Catarina
In Santa Catarina, nearly 30,000 people are affected by the floods across 97 towns or cities since the beginning of October, according to the local Civil Defense report. 1,790 people were displaced and 2,933 are homeless. Seventeen municipalities have declared state of emergency, which is the condition imposed to receive federal aid.
Visit of President Dilma Rousseff
On 24 October President Dilma Rousseff flew over the affected areas in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina to observe the extent of the damage.
The president announced that officials from the federal government will visit Rio Grande do Sul to help municipalities that need to submit documents to receive federal funds.
“In addition to the 66 municipalities we had already declared a state of emergency, we will come with a team formed by state government officials and mayors to take the necessary measures so that they [municipalities] meet the requirements to be declared state of emergency.” stated Rousseff.
A "crime against humanity": NASA warns of worst ever forest fires, environmental disaster, as smoke blankets six countries! 'Godzilla' El Nino responsible...
It's the biggest environmental disaster in our region and Australia cannot avoid being affected by its enormous reach. A sickening haze that has spread across southeast Asia is being described as a "crime against humanity" and has NASA warning of a disaster of its kind never before seen. For more than two months, raging forest fires on the Indonesian island of Sumatra have released vast plumes of smoke that has spread across neighbouring countries including Malaysia, Singapore, southern Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and the Philippines. The toxic yellow cloud is disrupting transport, schools and business and caused hundreds of thousands of people to fall ill. At least 230 principal fires and hundreds of hot spots being battled by a 22,000-strong army of fire fighters, including Australian specialists. But the blazes, some fuelled by ancient peat deposits, are defying them all and the most realistic hope is that monsoonal rains will douse them.
But that won't happen until next month at the earliest. Australian Gaye Thavisin, who has lived in Kaimantan for 13 years, said putting out a blaze in Indonesia was not like battling an Aussie bushfire. "These fires burn long, low and underground and need to be utterly soaked and flooded to be put out," she told news.com.au. While many locals hope monsoon rains will eventually drown them, Ms Thavisin said there was also a chance the weather could also remain dry until February. "It's unbelievably bad ... we've been without sunshine now for two and a half months," she said. During this time Ms Thavisin has been unable to operate her small cruise business because it was only possible to see for about 50 to 200m. "We're looking at bankruptcy now because we continue to pay our staff," she said. "Others have just sacked people." Fires in Indonesia have been a near annual occurrence since the 1980s, but this is different. They have been made worse by a prolonged dry season and a 'Godzilla' El Nino weather pattern whose devastating effects are only now starting to be seen. The massive weather event is expected to have terrible consequences for Australia this summer, including predictions of a devastating fire season here, too. El Niños typically reduce rainfall, cause droughts and increase temperatures.
