"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."

Peru develops early warnings of melting glaciers – in pictures

The snow-topped peaks in northern Peru are retreating so much that many visitors now come to see how much the glaciers have melted. The environmental changes have increased the risk of flooding and other problems for local people, but they are finding solutions to protect themselves and their water resources.Villagers in Pariacaca watch a presentation about Peru’s first early warning system, which monitors glacial lake 513, located above their village. In 2010, they managed to escape a landslide precipitated by an ice avalanche into the lake because they had constructed tunnels to drain off extra water. As the glaciers melt, the excess meltwater will cause more floods in downstream villages such as Pariacaca. Now, with technical assistance from the University of Zurich and Swiss aid, the solar-powered early warning system allows them to sleep more easily at night.Farmer Alejandro Cruz measures the pH of the Black river, which is turning increasingly red due to acidic iron oxide deposits. An unexpected side-effect of the glacial retreat is the acidification of the meltwater, as the withdrawing ice exposes metal-rich rocks to the air for the first time in tens of thousands, or even millions, of years .After heavy rainfall, the pH reading of the river water stands at 4.9 (highly acidic, for water). Cruz and his farming community are working with scientists to use local plants to counteract the heavy metals in the meltwater. Certain plants have an 'extraordinary capacity to absorb metals', says Raul Loayza, an aquatic toxicologist at Lima’s Cayetano Heredia University. Cruz and his fellow farmers are beginning to tailor the existing highland wetlands – which act like slow-release sponges for glacial meltwater – to combat the deteriorating quality of the water as well as storing it.Geronimo Salvador examines his potato crops, which have been blighted by ‘rancha negra’: 'It happens when the soil is waterlogged. The potato looks burnt.' The weather is much more extreme than it used to be, he says. 'There are more rains in the rainy season, more droughts in the dry season, and more frosts in the winter'.'We never used to have pests at 3,500 metres above sea level, but now that it’s warmer at this time of year, we do,' says Salvador. 'Some farmers are starting to use insecticide for the first time,' he adds. Farmers in the Cordillera Blanca are now learning about irrigation from farmers in the Cordillera Negra on the other side of the Santa valley. They are preparing for a time when there will be less water, both in quantity and quality after the glaciers have melted

More heavy rain on way will worsen flooding

 

“ The brutal drought that gripped southern Wisconsin in 2012 will be a distant memory by the time a series of storms drenching the area end in snow on Friday, with more storms possible Sunday through Tuesday, according to forecasters.

The weather-related woe replacing the drought is flooding: the counties of Rock, Green, Jefferson, Lafayette and Sauk are under flood warnings, and all other counties in south-central Wisconsin are under a flood watch through Friday at noon.

The rivers causing the flood warnings are the Crawfish in Jefferson County, the Baraboo in Sauk County, the Rock in Jefferson and Rock counties, the east branch of the Pecatonica in Lafayette County, the Pecatonica in Green County, the Sugar in Rock and Green counties. as well as the Fox in Lake and Kenosha counties, the Milwaukee on Ozaukee County, and the Sheboygan in Sheboygan County.

Officially, a record 1.46 inches of rain fell at the Dane County Regional Airport in Madison on Tuesday, boosting Madison’s 2013 precipitation total (rain plus snow converted to liquid) to 9.76 inches, 3.92 inches above normal.”

It's been an unusual year for snow accumulation in Saskatchewan, normally we don't get heavy wet snow or high humidity, but we've had plenty of the white stuff this year.  Residents have been cautioned to move the snow off their roofs to prevent collapse as the spring thaw takes place.

It's a common story in Saskatchewan this year — heavy snow destroying buildings.

The only hockey rink in the town of Bredenbury is the latest victim. The roof of the rink collapsed on Wednesday night. Bredenbury is about 40 kilometres southeast of Yorkton.

The exact cause of the roof collapse is still unknown, but heavy snow was a factor.

Kim Varga, the town's administrator, said she is just relieved no one was injured.

"Everyone is sad and sort of in shock," Varga said. "Everybody is just devastated and people are thankful that nobody got hurt and nobody was around."

Terry Hall, Bredenbury's rink manager, said the arena was host to about 50 hockey games every winter. It was also used by several hockey teams from surrounding communities.

Record Cold In March 2013

 

 

Last March, we were smashing records with highs in the 80s and enjoying sunshine. This March couldn't have been more different. With gray skies and cold temps, you might expect surplus moisture. But the lack of rain wasn't the only surprise.

More than a foot of snow blanketed Sisseton last month and while most of it's gone now, it was still the coldest March on record. The average temperature for the month was 18 degrees. That ‘s more than ten degrees below normal.

Last March was the warmest on record. 

It was a similar situation in Watertown, where the average temperature was nearly 24 degrees colder than a year earlier. 

Pierre picked up nearly three feet of snow this winter but March didn't add to the stockpiles with just 15-hundredths of an inch. That is more than an inch less than usual. 

Aberdeen actually got more moisture last March, but lost much of it to evaporation. 

While Sioux Falls received half its normal moisture, we fell seven inches behind on snowfall.
And while we were cold, perhaps the lack of snow helped temperatures.  Though Sioux Falls was more than five degrees cooler than average, it wasn't quite enough to crack the top ten coldest Marches on record.

Denver weather sets record low temperature

 

 Denver tied a record low temperature on Wednesday, as the mercury dipped to a paltry 6 degrees.

The reading broke the low mark for April 10, 7 degrees set in 1959.

After several inches of snowfall on Tuesday, the cold will stick around Wednesday in Denver. Weather forecasters predict a 10 percent chance for additional snow.

The National Weather Service forecast calls for the high temperature in Denver on Wednesday to reach 28 degrees.

"The average highs for this date are near 60s," said Bob Kleyla, a meteorologist with weather service. "If we only get to 28, that's 30 degrees below normal."

Wednesday night into Thursday, the low temperature is expected to dip to 18 degrees.

A warming trend is on tap for the rest of the week, according to the weather service.

"Saturday, we should be back up to near normal," Kleyla said.

Roads in the Denver metro area are wet, with patches of ice and snowpack in some spots. Main roads have been cleared, but side streets could be tricky.

The Colorado Department of Transportation reopened an eastbound stretch of Interstate 70 to the Kansas border around 5 a.m. after closing it overnight.

Denver International Airport has all runways clear and open Wednesday, after canceling 495 flights on Tuesday. The FAA is not reporting any major delays at DIA Wednesday morning, and officials said they did not expect to need to put full deicing operations in place.

 More record lows and wild weather swings

Lubbock temperatures hit April record low

 

When the senior public relations major from The Colony looked outside Wednesday morning and saw snow, the first thing she did was go back to bed.

When she woke up to go to class, however, Taryn Beadles saw the sun shining.

“I looked on the balcony and the whole ground was covered in snow,” she said. “I was like, this is unbelievable. I definitely didn’t want to go to class today, so I hopped back on the couch and snuggled up, but when I left to go to class, it was sunny.”

Charles Aldrich, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Lubbock, said the city hit a record low of 22 degrees, while the previous low was 26 degrees.

The low temperature, he said, was unusual for Lubbock, but the freeze was not.

Lubbock typically experiences its last freeze April 9, so the snow was one day late, Aldrich said.

“The degree of the temperature itself, how cold it was, was fairly uncommon,” he said, “especially considering it was a record. But, to get a cold front, that’s not too uncommon this time of year.”

The upper-level low brought air to the South Plains from the arctic region, including northern Canada and Alaska, which also have been experiencing below-average temperatures, Aldrich said.

The ice and snow created by the cold front made for hazardous driving conditions in Lubbock on Wednesday morning, he said.

Between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m., 113 car accidents were reported, Lubbock Police Department Sgt. Jonathan Stewart said.

While the accidents reported involved only minor injuries, he said the number was abnormally high for a typical day, and the wrecks could be attributed to the weather.

Two accidents occurred on Texas Tech’s campus on the Ninth Street bridge, Stephen Hinkle, Tech Police Department administrative captain, said.

Both accidents involved cars sliding off the road and hitting the guardrail.

LPD, he said, responded to a five-car pile up on I-27, a pile up on Loop 289, and a pile up on Marsha Sharp Freeway.

The reason for the lack of car accidents on Tech’s campus, Hinkle said is because the physical plant began salting the roads early in the morning.

Drivers, he said, need to slow down and be cautious when on the road.

Greg Howard, a freshman advertising major from Houston, said seeing the snow in April was a culture shock, and drivers in Lubbock need to be careful.

“I like the snow,” he said, “but I feel like more people should be informed on how to drive better in the snow rather than be uninformed.”

On Tuesday, the high temperature was 81 degrees, Aldrich said.

With Wednesday’s high temperature reaching the upper 40s and becoming sunny after the low of 22 degrees with snow, Howard said predicting how to dress is a challenge.

“Here, you have to wear two different outfits throughout the day,” he said, “because the first half of the day will be cold and then the second half will be warm, so you go through clothes pretty quick.”

Aldrich said he believes Lubbock did not win The Weather Channel’s Toughest Weather City title because of the fast-changing temperatures.

“I think it’d be mainly the dust storms and the amount of severe weather that Lubbock can get is what got Lubbock into the toughest weather city in the U.S.,” he said.

Whether the sun is shining or the temperature is freezing, Beadles said loving Lubbock is the key to liking its weather.

“One of my friends embraces it and said that she is happy the city won, but for me, I’m just ready to get out of here,” she said. “I think you really have to love Lubbock to love the weather in it.”

Lots of cold weather records falling in Sask.

Posted: Apr 9, 2013 2:36 PM CST

Last Updated: Apr 9, 2013 3:06 PM CST

Cold weather records are falling in Saskatchewan like the April raindrops we should be getting.

On Monday, 13 communities hit a record low for that day. More records fell Tuesday morning, according to CBC weather consultant Wayne Miskolczi.

The coldest spot in the province yesterday was Meadow Lake, where the mercury dropped to a record-setting -23.1 C.

Other communities that set cold-weather records for April 8 include Melfort, Kindersley and Indian Head.

Regina (-17.8) and Saskatoon (-20.6) each came close, but did not set records up to midnight last night.

Adding to the spring misery, there's still a metre or more of snow on many properties around the provinces. The good news: temperatures are supposed to rise above zero later in the week.

Here's a list of Saskatchewan communities that had their coldest April 8 ever on Monday, followed by the low temperatures and, in brackets, the old record:

• Indian Head -20.8 (-17.0)
• Kindersley -18.9 (-14.5)
• Last Mountain -21.2 (-19.5)
• Leader -15.2 (-13.7)
• Lucky Lake -17.4 (-15.4)
• Meadow Lake -23.1 (-19.0)
• Melfort -19.4 (-19.0)
• Outlook -17.9 (-13.2)
• Rosetown -17.8 (-15.5)
• Swift Current -17.0 (-15.6)
• Watrous -18.2 (-15.0)
• Weyburn -17.0 (-14.8)
• Wynyard -20.9 (-17.1)

It seems they are giving up trying to explain all the weather anomalies (in this article at least) and are just reporting what they observe, which makes no sense unless you take into account the presence of Planet X aka Nibiru and the resulting wobble.

Two-Year City Snowfall Hits Record Low

Despite the mild winter, snowpack levels in Northwest Montana are the best in the state, but the seasonal outlook is still uncerta

By Dillon Tabish, 04-07-13

While most of Montana and the continental U.S. experience worsening drought conditions, this corner of the state is exhibiting a stark contrast in weather patterns.

Separate meteorological reports released recently show the mountains in Northwest Montana benefitted from winter snowfall more than anywhere else in the state this year, while the valley floor in Kalispell broke a 120-year-old record for its lack of snow.

Through April 1, snowpack levels in the mountain ranges of the Flathead and Kootenai river basins were at the 30-year median, ranking better than anywhere else in Montana, according to the latest survey data from the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).

SNOTEL sensors planted at different mountain elevations, ranging between 5,000 and 7,500 feet, showed the snow accumulation in the Flathead is at 98 percent of average, according to Brian Domonkos, NRCS water supply specialist.

 

Specifically, the North Fork Flathead River watershed is at 103 percent of average; the Middle Fork is at 107 percent and the South Fork is at 103 percent. Areas throughout the Swan Range and Kootenai basin show similar levels that are average or slightly above average.

“The Flathead’s got it pretty good right now,” Domonkos said. “Especially with respect to what’s going on in the rest of the state where the levels are 80 to 90 percent of average.”

Yet, in sharp contrast, the lower elevation in the city of Kalispell has received the lowest amount of total snowfall the last two winters since records were first kept in 1893, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

The weather station at Glacier Park International Airport reported 48.4 inches of overall snow the previous two winters. The winters of 1940-41, which held the previous low, produced 49.2 inches.

This year’s seasonal snowfall from October through March was 17.1 inches in Kalispell, which is almost 30 inches below average. The city’s average snowfall is 45.7 inches.

“It was a pretty gentle, benign winter. There wasn’t a whole lot going on, particularly in the valleys,” said Marty Whitmore, NWS meteorologist in Missoula. “Temperatures were on the mild side at times. The mountains themselves aren’t doing too bad. But it’s not really a huge year for snow in the mountains either.”

As one example, total snowfall accumulation at Whitefish Mountain Resort this season was tied for the second lowest since measurements were first kept in 2005. As of April 1, resort officials reported Big Mountain received 256 inches of snow this season, the same amount as in 2005. In 2010, the resort reported 170 inches. Last winter produced 301 inches on Big Mountain.

High temperatures appear to be the primary culprit.

Western Montana has not been hit with a full-blown arctic front in two years, Whitmore said. Cold fronts regularly bring blizzard conditions and long periods of cold temperatures that produce snowfall and maintain typical winter conditions.

The temperature in Missoula has not dropped below zero since Feb. 25, 2011, according to the NWS. This is the city’s second longest stretch on record, and will likely surpass the all-time mark because there has never been a subzero day in Missoula between April and October, the NWS noted.

Last month was also warmer and drier than usual in Kalispell. The average temperature in March was 36.2 degrees. The historical average is 35.4.

The temperature in Kalispell on April 1 reached 67 degrees, two degrees shy of the city’s record set in 1900.

Weather, like temperature and rainfall, will largely determine the sudden impact of runoff and what summer eventually looks like in terms of fire danger, according to both Domonkos and Whitmore.

Snow in the mountains typically begins melting in April at the lower elevations and consistent runoff occurs by May.

Water supply conditions will likely end up below average for most of the West’s rivers, according to the NWS. But early forecasts show spring and summer streamflow could remain normal in Western Montana. Flathead Lake is currently at 106 percent of the average streamflow, Domonkos said.

Other states are already bracing for the coming months and a possible sequel to last year’s historic fire season.

The Pacific Northwest could see below-normal temperatures but drier-than-normal conditions from now until July, according to the spring outlook report released recently by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The report adds that areas in the U.S. that are plagued by drought could experience above-average temperatures and little moisture relief.

Last year marked Montana’s worst wildfire season in more than 100 years. More than 2,100 fires scorched 1.14 million acres statewide, according to the Northern Rockies Coordination Center. It was the most land consumed in a single year since the infamous Big Burn of 1910.

The U.S. as a whole endured one of the worst fire seasons on record in 2012. Wildfires burned more than 9 million acres nationwide, surpassing that mark for only the third time on record, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. Only 2006 and 2007 had more acreage burned.

 Tasmania in March 2013: exceptionally warm

March 2013 was the warmest recorded in Tasmania, with an unprecedented run of hot days to start, almost no cold weather, and another warm burst in the final week (before a cool final day). There was some heavy rain in the central north.

Prolonged heatwave ensures Tasmania's warmest March

A prolonged heatwave affected Tasmania and the rest of southeast Australia between 2 and 13 March, helping create the warmest March ever recorded in Tasmania. Many sites had their highest March mean temperature on record or their highest for many years. In several cases the March record was set in 2010, with 1974 and 1971 also very warm for Tasmania. Averaged across the state, the mean temperature was a March record of 15.7 °C, which is 2.2 °C above normal and 0.3 °C warmer than the previous record from 1974. The state average maximum temperature was a March record of 21.0 (2.9 °C above normal and 0.9 °C above the previous record from 1974), and minimum temperatures were the 3rd-warmest for March at 10.3 °C (1.6 °C above normal).

A near-stationary high over the Tasman Sea directed warm air across the state from the 2nd to the 13th, and coincided with exceptionally high sea surface temperatures. The heatwave was characterised by prolonged sequences of days and nights above threshold temperatures, and was accompanied by high humidity and generally light winds. Launceston reached 30 °C on 8 consecutive days from the 5th to the 12th, double the previous record for such a warm spell (28 to 31 January 2009). Lake St Clair and Sheffield both had an unprecedented 9 consecutive days reaching 25 °C, whilst Hobart Airport and Orford had 7 consecutive nights above 15 °C. With the heatwave affecting Victoria and SA as well, a Special Climate Statement was prepared.

Record warm days

The heatwave included several particularly warm days; the hottest day was the 12th with 37.4 °C at Bushy Park, and 37.3 °C at Grove. Some sites (including Launceston) had their highest March temperature on record, either on the 7th or the 12th. Although the second half of the month was not as warm as the first half, the 27th saw an approaching cold front push temperatures into the 30s at many sites. The 32.8 °C at Bushy Park that day was within a whisker of the highest late-season temperature ever recorded in Tasmania (33.0 °C at Scamander on 27 March 1990), whilst Launceston (30.0 °C), Strathgordon (28.5 °C) and Lake Leake (27.0 °C) were among sites that had their highest late-season maximum.

The warm weather at the start of the month, and a shortage of cold weather, meant almost all sites had their highest March mean daily maximum temperature on record (the main exceptions were on the east and south coasts, where 2010 was warmer). Many sites broke their previous records by a wide margin, and in several cases were more than 3 °C above the March average.

There was some cold weather: on the 16th and 17th temperatures in the low to mid-teens were common, some snow fell on the highest peaks, and Mount Wellington reached just 5.3 °C. For most sites the coolest day was the 31st in the wake of a cold front.

Record warm nights

Overnight temperatures were also persistently high through the first part of the month, peaking on the 12th or 13th when some sites (including Hobart, Bicheno and Devonport) had their warmest March night on record. With little in the way of cold nights it was not surprising that many sites had their highest March mean daily minimum temperature on record.

The coldest morning for most places was the 17th (when Mount Wellington fell to -1.7 °C and Liawenee and Mount Read also dropped below zero), or at the very start of the month: Liawenee dipped to -1.4 °C on the 1st.
