"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."

Haboob dust storm strong enough to knock over a TRUCK sweeps Phoenix

• Wall of dust and sand advanced over Arizona city on Tuesday afternoon
• Storms kicked up particles and pushed them north in dramatic formation
• Tractor-trailer driving just outside the city was knocked over by winds 

A powerful haboob dust storm strong enough to upend a tractor-trailer swept across Phoenix, Arizona this week, practically blotting out the sun.

The weather phenomenon overwhelmed southern Arizona on Tuesday afternoon, bringing fierce winds and storms across the desert region.

Footage from the air showed the huge wall of dust and sand being pushed north by the fierce storms which threw the particles into the air.

High winds: The tractor-trailer was knocked over by a strong gusts inside a dust storm which overwhelmed parts of southern Arizona on Tuesday afternoon

If you look at the image above, I have managed to squeeze in tropical depression Erika which has brought much needed rain to the West Indies and Cuba and is now skimming past Florida.
Meanwhile the tropics have been quite active around Hawaii recently and the pattern is not expected to change anytime soon with Hurricane Ignacio churning in the eastern Pacific and looks to be heading directly for Hawaii

Tropical Storm Erika has brought deadly flooding and mudslides to parts of Dominica in the Lesser Antilles, washing out roadways and collapsing at least one building.
4 people have been killed in the flooding and mudslides created by Erika's torrential rain.
A blind elderly man and two children were killed in southeastern Dominica, and another man was killed in the country's capital of Roseau, the report said.
Several others remain missing and at least 20 homes have been destroyed in the storm, the AP also reported.
"The situation is grim.
It is dangerous," Ian Pinard, Dominica's communications minister, told the AP.
Social media users posted images and video of a raging Roseau River Thursday morning as several bands of heavy rain pounded the small island nation.

London flooding: Parts of the capital deluged with heavy rainfall - worst in 60 years

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/london-flooding-parts-of-the-...

Fire crews have been called out more than one hundred times in just three hours this afternoon after heavy rainfall led to flooding across the capital.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) received a total of 400 calls between 1.30pm and 4.30pm - and 110 of these related to flooding.

The volume of calls in the three hour period was more than LFB would expect to receive during an average day, a spokesman said.

Most of the calls have come from north London, where flooding is particularly bad, and people have become trapped in cars and underpasses.
In Harrow, firefighters were called out to deal with several flooded properties on one road, in Dalston an elderly person became trapped in a basement flat, and a person was also trapped with a newborn baby in a home in Harrow.

Flooding is also particularly bad in Edgware, where roads have been flooded and power lines have been brought down, in Colindale, where vehicles in car parks have been completely submerged, and in Kenton, where whole streets of parked cars have also been swamped in flood water.

In Oak Hill Park in Barnet flood waters were knee deep, and a road was completely blocked after Pymmes Brook burst its banks.

Today's flooding was reportedly the worst the area has seen in sixty years.

Papua New Guinea warns of worst drought in 20 years

An intensifying El Nino may bring the worst drought in 20 years to Papua New Guinea, the country's prime minister said, raising fears that production of the country's critical agricultural commodities may drop.

Dry weather has gripped much of Papua New Guinea in recent months, while frosts in the last fortnight in the country's highland regions have destroyed vital food supplies, the government said late on Monday.

The El Nino is typically linked to dryness and frosts are often an early symptom of the phenomenon, weather experts say.

Prime Minister Peter O'Neill warned of an escalation of unfavorable conditions across the rest of Papua New Guinea as the El Nino strengthens over the next few months.

"This drought has the potential to be worse than 1997 and 1998," he said.

A state of emergency has already been declared in Enga and Southern highlands provinces in Papua New Guinea.

The highland provinces of Papua New Guinea are a key coffee producing region, one of the country's few commodities that are exported. Papua New Guinea accounts for approximately 1 percent of global coffee supplies, the World Bank Estimates.

Aid workers said it was too early to assess the damage to the country's coffee industry, but added that Papua New Guinea would face a potential humanitarian emergency if O'Neil's assessment comes to pass.

"Everyone has their own garden and they rely very heavily on it for food. If their gardens are destroyed by frost or it becomes very dry because of a lack of water then there could be a significant proportion of the population in food stress," said Blossum Gilmour, CARE Papua New Guinea's assistant country director.

Papua New Guinea's agricultural sector accounts for approximately 25 percent of the country's gross domestic product, PricewaterhouseCoopers estimates.

Waikiki beaches closed after heavy rains trigger 500,0000 gallon sewage spill

Heavy rains triggered a half-million gallon sewage spill near Hawaii’s world-famous tourist district, prompting city officials Monday to close most of the beach fronting Waikiki.

Storm water flowed into the city’s sewage system as a weather system linked to Tropical Storm Kilo dumped heavy rain on the islands.

The inundation overwhelmed the sewage system, causing 500,000 gallons of wastewater to spew from manholes, said Lori Kahikina, Honolulu’s director of environmental services.

“Now’s not the time to go swimming,” she told reporters. It could be a couple of days before the ocean is clear enough for people to enter, Kahikina estimated. She said it would likely take that long for water samples to be tested for safety.

Waikiki is home to many of the state’s biggest hotels and is the engine of Hawaii’s tourism-dependent economy.

The city is advising people to avoid a 4-mile stretch of waterfront from Kapahulu Avenue in Waikiki to Point Panic in Kakaako. Sewage came out of manholes at Ala Moana Beach Park, on a street fronting a shopping mall at the edge of Waikiki and a pumping station.

Shayne Enright, a spokeswoman for the city’s Department of Emergency Services, cautioned the ocean was dangerous.

“We don’t know right now what is in the water. You could get a serious infection, get extremely sick or even worse,” she said.

Kahikina says the storm water entered the sewage system as leaves and debris clogged the storm drains. She said some witnesses reported people were opening manhole covers to let the storm water drain into the sewage system, even though sewage pipes and pumps aren’t designed to handle that volume of liquid. She noted it’s illegal to open manhole covers.

The heatwave that lasted for just one day: From sizzling to sodden, how Bournemouth beach went from packed to deserted in 24 hours as temperatures fall by nearly 10C and Britain is hit by heavy rain

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3207856/Well-wasn-t-heatwav...

Heavy showers have swept across Britain with some parts of the country experiencing nearly an inch of rain in just 12 hours.
Temperatures plummeted by around 10C yesterday as parts of the UK were battered by wind and rainfall.
The wet weather came just a day after a 'Spanish plume' saw temperatures in London and the South East rise to a scorching 31C on Saturday.
The poor conditions are set to continue until tonight and forced drivers to battle through huge puddles yesterday as they made their way around.
And the crowds that had crammed on to Bournemouth beach on Saturday to enjoy the soaring temperatures were nowhere to be seen yesterday.
Photographs showed brave walkers in Southsea, Hampshire, wrapping up in huge coats as they wrestled with their umbrellas in the wind.
Tourists in London were caught out by one particularly heavy downpour, with hundreds at the Tower of London forced to hide under umbrellas.
Meanwhile, revellers at V Festival in Essex were forced to put on ponchos as they braved the heavy rain to see their favourite bands.
Hundreds of music fans made their way to the main stage to see Calvin Harris and The Script as the ground became muddy and waterlogged.
It came after temperatures reached 30.9C in Gravesend, Kent, on Saturday as parts of England enjoyed the hottest summer day since early July.

Montpellier: storms and floods victims - FRANCE

News - Published Sunday, August 23, 2015 by The Weather Channel- LA CHAINE METEO

The Hérault undergoes violent storms. 200mm rain fell on the Cevennes in the space of 12 hours. The Montpellier area is impacted: the Lez entered in flood and flood the city center on Sunday afternoon.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYVvfuuYxUE

As provided in the CONSULT WEATHER weather warning in place since Saturday night, the city of Montpellier was hit hard; 1 h, it fell 108 mm, setting a new record for rainfall rate schedule after those of 29 September 2014. And in two hours, it fell 126 mm of rain, ie the equivalent of 2 month precipitation. These storms recall the episode of severe thunderstorms that hit the city on Sept. 29, 2014, where he fell the equivalent of five months of rain in three hours (it was then the absolute record).

These storms are very electric, with over 2000 lightning strikes in Montpellier, and nearly 10,000 impacts on the department in the afternoon.

Therefore the territory has just undergone a particularly powerful stormy wave with more than 85,000 lightning strikes since Saturday night.

At the time of writing this article, two flood victims would be regrettable as traffic conditions were sometimes impossible between the Hérault and Gard (between Montpellier, Nimes and Vigan).

Additional thunderstorms are expected tonight and Monday in the department of Herault, why a special release is maintained by us for these elements.

With the amount of wildfires that are currently burning in Western Canada and the US, I think this would be a great opportunity to share a few links and some information about wildfires....especially considering this will be an issue leading up to and during the shift (as pointed out be the Zeta's):

http://www.zetatalk.com/info/tinfx080.htm

West Coast: forest fires caused by exploding volcanoes, sparks, and lightning storms or perhaps the firestorms that can occur anywhere during the shift, will eliminate the forests as a shelter.

Its important that people are aware of the dangers and safety precautions during a wildfire. Unlike a housefire that may be contained to a specific area, forest fires are highly unpredictable and create different scenarios.

http://www.ready.gov/wildfires

http://bcwildfire.ca/fightingwildfire/behaviour.htm

http://www.smokeybear.com/index.asp

What I found interesting in reading the information was the significant role that the 'terrain' plays, things like 'chimney effects', 'fire-tornados' etc... are created by high winds and the slopes of the mountains. Also, people need to stay away from the natural drainage ditches along steep terrain that create the 'chimney effects / saddles' that funnel wind and move the fires quickly.

These sites offer a lot of help and information for prevention etc... but if you are caught in a wildfire / forest fire please remember these three things:

- If you are going to be stuck in your car: stay put, shut the engine off, close all air flow to the interior cabin and lie on the floor away from the windows. Stay until the fire blows over

- if you are going to be stuck in your house: close all windows, unlock all doors, place a ladder outside by a window (tie down if possible), stay away from the outside walls and gather family together in the middle of the house. Stay until it blows over and/or it is safer to evacuate.

- If you are going to be stuck outside without shelter:

• The best temporary shelter is in a sparse fuel area. On a steep mountainside, the back side is safer. Avoid canyons, natural "chimneys" and saddles.
• If a road is nearby, lie face down along the road cut or in the ditch on the uphill side. Cover yourself with anything that will shield you from the fire's heat.
• If hiking in the back country, seek a depression with sparse fuel. Clear fuel away from the area while the fire is approaching and then lie face down in the depression and cover yourself. Stay down until after the fire passes!

Please also note that even though a fire may look like it is 'out', when looking at 'wildfires' keep in mind that the ground may still be smouldering and hot enough to 'flare up' and start a fire days or even a week after the initial start of the fire. Keep wary when looking at any forest fire.

U.S. fires could jump border, Canadian communities warned

Saturday, August 22, 2015, 6:04 PM - Residents living along the Canadian border east of Osoyoos, B.C. are concerned as strong winds could push a massive wildfire in northeastern Washington over the border.

Osoyoos is located in the southern part of the Okanagan Valley in B.C. where several massive wildfires continue to burn. Rock Creek, which is 50 per cent contained, has burned over 4,000 hectares to date and has torched 30 homes and 15 other structures. Other wildfires of note include Oliver and Testalinden Creek, which according to B.C. Wildfire Centre's latest report, is 50 per cent contained.

Special air quality statements remain in effect for many communities due to smoky skies.

Evacuation alerts could be issued for the people of Grand Forks and Christina Lake due to the 175-square kilometre Stickpin fire in northeastern Washington State. As a result, the BC Wildfire Service is doubling up on efforts to contain the Paulson Pass blaze which is burning just north of Christina Lake.
