Wild Weather, the Wobble Effect

"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."

Now You See It: Ice chunks crash through man's roof

Posted: Jan 09, 2015 2:22 PM ESTUpdated: Jan 09, 2015 2:22 PM EST

CHICAGO, IL (WLS/ABC) - Was it frozen waste dropped from a plane that flew over his apartment complex? Or something out of this world? Wherever the huge ice chunks came from, they caused a lot of damage and created a mystery for one Chicago, Illinois homeowner.

Inside his freezer, John Connors has three ice chunks the size of bowling balls. He's keeping them in hopes authorities will be able to determine how and why they crashed into his Ravenswood Apartment on Tuesday around noon. The information technology specialist was at work when it happened.

"If I had been here, I would have been killed," Connors said.

His neighbor Doris Patiz was home at the time.

"I hear this terrible blast. I thought it was a gas explosion. I walked in and thought a bomb and had exploded. I looked up and I could see the sky and planes," Patiz said.

Connors said the ice chunks crashed through the roof with such force they shattered the ceiling beams, barely missing his cat.

"My chairs were encrusted with ice and the rugs were soaked from the ice that had melted," he said.

One chunk was found in his bedroom about 20 feet away from his living room.

"Thank God we're alive," he said.

His friends think the ice chunks are megacyrometeors - a term used to describe a large block of ice that seemingly falls out of the sky. There's also a possibility they are frozen liquids from an aircraft. Either way, Conners is hoping his landlord will pay for the repairs.

South Australia prepares for flooding rains after bushfires and heat

Some towns have been told to expect up to 15 times their monthly rainfall and WA, Victoria, Queensland and Northern Territory expect severe weather too

http://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2015/jan/09/south-austral...

South Australian towns have been told to expect up to 15 times their monthly rainfall in the coming days, and there are severe weather warnings in place for several states and territories.

In Alice Springs, Northern Territory emergency services have found a body after a search for a 24-year-old man who was swept away while tubing in the swollen Todd River on Thursday.

The Todd began flowing on Thursday for the first time since April after heavy rains dumped more than 100mm in its catchment area. The shallow river bed is generally dry for most, if not all, of the year.

“It’s very unusual to have tropical moisture going right through the country,” Bessard said.

“I think for South Australia it may be the biggest rainfall in 30 years ... In the northern part of South Australia we have had 120mm of rainfall in the past 24 to 48 hours and there is potential to have 50 to 100 more in the next few days.”

Planes Flying at Near-Supersonic Speeds Across the Atlantic Due to Powerhouse Jet Stream (Jan 9)

While an unusually rapid jet stream is feeding monster storms to the UK, it’s also hurling airliners at near supersonic speeds.

British Airways Flight 114 at one point travelled at a groundspeed of 745 miles per hour on January 8.

The speed of sound at sea level is 761 miles per hour.

Many planes, despite leaving late from New York’s JFK Airport, arrived at Heathrow earlier than expected yesterday – with some flight times coming in almost an hour quicker than originally scheduled.

According to the BA website, flight BA1515 departed 40 minutes late from New York but still arrived in London 16 minutes earlier than scheduled – 56 minutes quicker than expected. Flight BA0172's journey was also around an hour shorter than earmarked.

Several planes reached London from New York in around five hours and 20 minutes, whereas normal flight times between the two cities takes more than 6 hours.

Planes going the other way, from London to New York, are taking longer because either the jet stream is too strong or it forces planes to take detours.

Winter storms Israel with snow in Jerusalem, north

Schools are out in Golan and Galilee, roads closed in Jerusalem as snow blankets Golan, rains showers north and central Israel. .

Snow and sleet fell in Jerusalem, the Galilee and Golan Heights and rain poured on the center as a much anticipated winter storm reached Israel Thursday, forcing schools and roads to close across the nation, as Israel braced for the looming cold front.

Though more common in recent years, pristine snow-covered roads and mountains are still a rarity in Israel, and, for lack of better infrastructure, still pose a security risk, forcing local authorizes to shut down the roads leading to a number of central spots in the north, namely the roads leading up to Safed and the Golan Heights.

The road connecting Ma'alot-Tarshih, Kfar Vradim and the Tefen industrial complex has been closed amid snow.

Snow has been reported in a number of area in the north, from the mountain tops of the Golan Heights and Safed, farther south in the Galilee, registering up to 50 mm (about 2 inches) of snow in certain area.

Heavy rain and wind in Jerusalem

Tree collapses in Tel Aviv's Kikar HaMedina

Snow was also reported in the Miron area, in Kibbuz Sasa and Beit Jan.

Over 2 mm of snow was registered on the banks of Sea of Galilee (Kinneret), with over 4 mm falling since last night.

Massive rain showered central Israel, knocking over trees and power lines – for example, parts of Petah Tikva and Tel Aviv's northern Tzahala neighborhood were without electricity as of Wednesday morning.

Jerusalem has also decided to cancel school for Wednesday, fearing deterioration in the weather; the decision also extends to all preschools and informal institutes of education.

Other communities who have decided to keep their children at home for this cold snap are a number of West Bank settlements and outposts: Kiryat Arba, Hebron, the Gush Etzion communities, and Beitar Elit; in Ariel, school will begin only at noon. Continue...

The next three days will see heavy winds with expected gusts of up to 90mph and very heavy rainfall from the Galilee to the Negev, which forecasts say will cause flooding, damages and a risk of over-flooding rivers.

The abrupt change in the weather will be felt during the day, ahead of the drop in temperatures tonight. Sand storms are expected in the first half of the day in the south, with heavy haze in central Israel. The Mediterranean Sea will be rough, with waves 3-6 meters in height during the day and an expected 9 meters at night.

IEC: We drew conclusions from last year

Sources at the Israel Electric Corporation say that preparations have been made for the winter ahead and that they will implement the conclusions of a committee tasked with reviewing last winter's storm, which left tens of thousands without power. The IEC further said that it has stocks of fuel available for emergency situations. In addition, maintenance and repair work has been carried out which included extensive pruning of tree branches from electricity wires.

Authorities in Safed and Jerusalem told residents to have shovels ready, "as is customary in cold weather countries,

Nine Tornadoes Leave Widespread Destruction in Southern U.S. (Jan 4)

Severe storms hit the South this weekend, spawning at least nine confirmed tornadoes, damaging homes and injuring an infant.

"We've already had at least twice as many tornadoes in January 2015 as we had in all of January 2014," said weather.com senior meteorologist Nick Wiltgen. "There were only four tornadoes in the entire month of January last year, all on the 11th of the month."

Mississippi

The National Weather Service in Jackson has confirmed at least six tornadoes from Saturday's storms in Mississippi.

In Rose Hill, where one of the confirmed tornadoes struck Saturday, multiple homes were damaged and power lines were brought down, television station WLBT reported.

Late Sunday afternoon, a National Weather Service survey team confirmed that an EF2 tornado left a trail of damage near Rose Hill. The tornado destroyed ten homes.

The team found additional tornado damage continuing into Newton and Lauderdale counties. The team identified an EF1 tornado that traveled from south of Chunky to near Meehan, continuing just north of Interstate 20 near Meehan.

Freak Windstorm Kills 2 off Southern California -December 30

Two people have died on Catalina Island, including a harbor patrol officer who was swept overboard and crushed between a boat and rocks amid a fierce storm, authorities said Wednesday.

Authorities were on scene at Avalon Harbor on Dec. 31, 2014, after two people were killed on Catalina Island. (Credit: KTLA)

Unusually strong winds began whipping up waters in Avalon Harbor about 8 p.m. Tuesday, sending waves towering and beaching several vessels, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Robert Berardi.

“As the winds increased, so did the wave heights, which kept the Avalon Harbor Department personnel — patrol officers — extremely busy throughout the night,” Berardi said. “Unfortunately, as heroic as they were, one of their officers succumbed to injuries.”

Deputies from Avalon Station and city Harbor Department personnel were working to secure loose boats when a city vessel came “perilously close to hitting rocks, so one of the patrolmen jumped from the vessel to get to safety,” a Sheriff’s Department news release stated.

Two deputies tried unsuccessfully to rescue the patrolman, who became stuck between the boat and rocks under “turbulent waves,” the release said. Homicide detectives were investigating the patrolman’s death, which occurred around 11 p.m. Tuesday.

The patrolman was identified by the coroner’s office as 39-year-old Tim Mitchell, a 39-year-old New Zealander from New Plymouth.

Tim Mitchell

Catalina resident Tom Quinn said he was sitting in Luau Larry’s, one of the bars that line the harbor, when everything unfolded very quickly Tuesday evening. The patrolman had been trying to save a dive vessel called the King Neptune, Quinn said.

“All of a sudden, the wind just came,” Quinn said. “Mayhem was happening out here. … Guys were dying.”

Quinn described the patrolman as a “very well loved” local man.

The other victim, Quinn said, was older and also an experienced sailor.

They look almost the images seen in the American film "The Day After Tomorrow": Italy snowy today looks like from space, as we can see in the images of satellites NASA taken in the morning today and just disclosed. Few clouds residual, so much snow especially on the Apennines from Emilia Romagna and Puglia, but also the extreme south in Calabria, Sicily and Sardinia. Also note how the snow persists incredibly in the Po Valley, where it fell a week ago and yet he has not even melted because of the great cold.

Grand Canyon blanketed in snow as hot and sunny vacation spots Las Vegas and  Los Angeles endure freezing temperatures to kick of New Year thanks to rare  winter storm

• Freezing temperatures brought  snow to the Grand Canyon in Arizona this New Years, making for a beautiful sight but a hassle to visitors  
• This as the storm forced residents  and party-goers in some usually sun-soaked cities to bundle up for a frosty New  Year's
• The system swept from California  into the Mojave Desert and Nevada, bringing snow to parts of northern Arizona  and the Grand Canyon
• Residents in Southern California  foothills snapped photos of snow-covered lawns as kids tossed  snowballs
• Ice and snow also made roads and  highways dangerous along the panhandles of Texas and  Oklahoma
• More than 180 motorists were rescued  after they were stranded by the snow on mountain highways northeast of Los  Angeles
• Still, many Southern Californians  were excited to see snow at their front doors

The Grand Canyon  offered visitors a rare treat on New Year's as the Arizona national park was  blanketed in snow after days of temperatures that fell well below  freezing.

Unfortunately,  this  seldom seen weather feat also proved to be very problematic for the  many tourists visiting the park during their vacation, with entire roads shut  down because of the snow-packed and icy conditions, and visitors being  urged to use 4 Wheel Drive or snow chains while driving.

This as many other  sunny and hot spots out West were also hit with frigid temperatures, blustery  conditions and a nice dusting of snow.

The winter weather  came as an extremely unusual surprise for the two areas - which are both known  for sunny weather and much warmer temperatures.

Snow hit multiple  suburbs in Southern California, including Temecula, Murrieta, Lake Elsinore and  Irvine.

Temecula City  Manager Aaron Adams said his 12- and 14-year-old daughters were sledding outside  his home on bodyboards usually reserved for the beach or pool. He said he has  never seen as much snow - half a foot in some places - in the two decades he has  lived there.

'You'd think you  woke up in Tahoe or something,' Adams said. 'Our Old Town looks like a ski  town.'
