"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.

Grave danger imminent! Nearly 200,000 asked to evacuate as Japan is sandwiched between a hurricane and a typhoon
Authorities in central Japan Thursday (Sep 9) ordered tens of thousands to flee their homes after torrential rains flooded rivers and triggered landslides, with one person missing after a mudslide buried houses.
The Japan Meteorological Agency issued special downpour warnings for Tochigi and Ibaraki prefectures, north of Tokyo, urging vigilance against mudslides and flooding.
"This is a scale of downpour that we have not experienced before.
Grave danger could be imminent," meteorologist Takuya Deshimaru said at an emergency press conference.
Parts of central Tochigi have been deluged with almost 60cm of rain since Monday evening. Authorities in Tochigi ordered more than 90,000 residents to evacuate, while another 80,000 were advised to leave their homes, public broadcaster NHK said.
The meteorological observatory in Tochigi said the Kinugawa river, which also runs through Ibaraki, overflowed early Thursday. In Tochigi's Kanuma city, a local official said rescuers were searching for a missing person believed to be buried in mudslides.
"We don't know details of the person yet," he said. NHK reported it was a woman in her 60s buried after mudslides destroyed houses.
Her husband was rescued soon after, it said.
The Japan Meteorological Agency issued a heavy rain emergency warning to Tochigi and Ibaraki prefectures on Thursday due to extremely high risks of sediment disasters in the Kanto region.
The emergency warning for heavy rain was issued to Tochigi Prefecture at 12:20 a.m. and to Ibaraki Prefecture at 7:45 a.m. Typhoon No. 18 changed to an extratropical cyclone, triggering torrential rain that brought 405.5 millimeters of rainfall in Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture, and 325.5 millimeters in Kanuma in the prefecture during a 24-hour period until midnight Wednesday.
Evacuation directives were issued to more than 2,600 people in Tochigi, Sakura and other cities in Tochigi Prefecture late Wednesday as water levels rose in rivers with an increased risk of landslides.

Deadly sandstorm: "Unprecedented" in Lebanon's modern history kills 8 in middle east
Downtown Jerusalem as the deadly sandstorm engulfed swathes of the Middle East
A monster sandstorm engulfed the Middle East killing eight people today and causing hundreds to be hospitalised with breathing problems
Large parts of Lebanon, Syria, Israel and Cyprus were shrouded in a thick cloud of dust from the sandstorm
Eight people were killed, including six in Syria, and hundreds have been hospitalised for respiratory problems
In Israel a few hundred patients, mostly sufferers of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease caused by smoking and asthma -- were hospitalized on Tuesday after suffering from inhalation of particles during the unusually heavy dust storm around the country.
At Ziv Medical Center in Safed, chronically ill patients suffered shortness of breath and needed oxygen inhalation.
Emergency room director Dr. Yosef Nevia said that such unusual weather -- in which the dust was so intense that it was hard to see anything from a distance -- was very dangerous to people with respiratory problems, heart conditions, pregnant women and children.
He urged such individuals not to go outdoors and not to exert themselves physically when such a thing happens.
Dust particles in the air may cause high blood pressure, difficulty breathing and the allergy-related production of phlegm.
There may also be cough, headache, asthma attacks and a burning sensation in the eyes,
On Tuesday, more than 255 people suffered from serious side effects from the dust storm, Magen David reported.
The first-aid and ambulance organization said it treated 145 people with shortness of breath and asthma attacks, 30 people who fainted and more than 80 people whose hearts were overburdened by the particles.
Earthwind map showing the the sandstorm today
In Lebanon a sandstorm lashed several regions in the Bekaa, North and South on Monday and Tuesday, landing scores of people in hospitals and bringing visibility to extremely low levels.
The Meteorological Department at Beirut's Rafik Hariri International Airport described the storm as "unprecedented" in Lebanon's modern history, OTV said.
The National News Agency said the Red Cross transferred at least 35 people suffering respiratory distress to hospitals in the northern region of Akkar.
In northern Bekaa, a woman identified as Jumana Ali al-Laqqis died of a severe asthma attack at the Baalbek state-run hospital, NNA said.
"Dust encircled homes in the regions of al-Bireh, al-Qobaiyat, Jabal Akroum, Wadi Khaled, Khirbet Daoud all the way to Akkar's coast," the agency said.
In the Bekaa, the sandstorm hit the city of Hermel and the area adjacent to Akkar and Dinniyeh, causing low visibility and an accumulation of garbage on streets and in irrigation canals.
Dozens of residents were transferred to hospitals in the region.
The storm also lashed Baalbek and the neighboring areas, reducing visibility to near zero and causing a surge in temperature.

Israel blanketed in haze: Dangerous pollutants in the air
Published: 09.08.15
Israelis woke up to a morning of yellow skies and exhausting heat, with the country being covered by a massive Middle Eastern sand storm; Environmental Protection Ministry warns against physical activities outdoors.
Heavy haze hung in the air throughout Israel on Tuesday morning, as the Environmental Protection Ministry warned the public of the high levels of pollution as a result of a dust storm, which has swept through the Middle East.
High concentrations of breathable particles were measured in the early morning hours in areas ranging from the Golan Heights to Jerusalem. The haze will continue to spread across Israel throughout the afternoon hours, leading the ministry to issue a warning against conducting physical activities outdoors.
The Environmental Protection Ministry has cautioned anyone suffering from heart or lung conditions, as well as senior citizens, children, and pregnant women, from conducting strenuous physical activity outdoors. The warning additionally stated that students should avoid conducting physical activities outside of the classroom, cautioning that in severe cases, the pollution could lead to death.
Dr. Levana Kordova, scientific manager at the Environment Ministry's Air Monitoring Center, explained that, "In the next few hours, the haze will cover all of Israel. We will continue to track and monitor developments. For sensitive populations, short term exposure to such dense clusters of particulates can cause a stroke, heart attacks, and even death. The storm comes in addition the existing high heat and high humidity."
According to Dr. Kordova, "Schools should avoid exerting the students, and sports classes should be held in indoor halls."
The ministry explained that the tiny particulates make their way into our lungs, to the area in our bloodstream where our body conducts the oxygen to carbon dioxide exchange, leading to various possible medical conditions.
We aren’t alone; several of our neighboring countries were already hit with the system on Monday. Different areas of Syria suffered the effects of the sand storm, which was severe in its scope and intensity, and caused decreased visibility across the country. Syrian official state media outlet Sana managed to break away from its reporting on the civil war to cover the storm.
Pictures published in local media showed people wearing masks and pieces of cloth on their faces in an attempt to prevent the particles from entering their lungs.

Sand storm sweeps through Akkar, north Bekaa - LEBANONMIDDLE EAST
A sand storm hit the northern district of Akkar and areas in the north Bekaa, causing residents to call on the authorities to collect garbage dispersed by the strong winds
137 millimetres of rain fell in the span of 24 hours
Streets were flooded in Estevan and surrounding areas Saturday.
Thunder showers in Estevan Saturday brought rainwater that flooded streets and backed up sewers.
According to Environment Canada, 137 millimetres of rain fell on the city in 24 hours.
The agency issued thunderstorm warnings around 11 a.m. CST. The warning lasted about three hours.
It said the storm began in the Lampman area and was moving southwest through Estevan towards the Canada-U.S. border.
Estevan's Emergency Measures Coordinator Helen Fornwald said no one in the community had been forced to evacuate their homes.
However, Fornwald said she had heard that a number of people had sewers back-ups. City crews were out Sunday repairing dig sites, she said.
Woodlawn Avenue S. and the road leading to the Humane Society have been closed for repairs due to damage caused by the flash flood. They are set to reopen later this week.

Baseball-Sized Hail Pummels Parts of Italy
Baseball-sized hail came smashing down near Naples, Italy on Saturday in a storm that injured several people and animals in addition to causing damage to vehicles, crops and more. The storm hit the city of Pozzuoli just outside the popular coastal destination of Naples. According to Jonathan Erdman, senior meteorologist for weather.com, the storm was brought on by a vigorous southward plunge of the jet stream that carved into western Europe sending a potent upper disturbance into the Italian peninsula Saturday. That instability then charged up thunderstorms over the Mediterranean Sea, which swept into Italy. "The satellite signature was classic for a severe thunderstorm, or cluster of storms." Social media posts recorded hail near Lake Como in Northern Italy as well as the in the Naples area.
"Baseball size hailstones fall from thunderstorms at speeds of at least 75 mph, so it's no wonder you can see the magnitude of smashed windshields and structural damage," said Erdman. Weather Underground Weather Historian Christopher Burt writes that Europe's most destructive hailstorm struck Munich, Germany, on July 12, 1984. An estimated $2 billion in damage resulted from the baseball-size hail, including damage to 70,000 homes. NOAA estimates hail causes about $1 billion in damage to crops and property each year in the U.S. Some individual hailstorms striking cities can inflict over $1 billion in damage alone, such as one that hit St. Louis on April 10, 2001.
Pondering a 36-foot storm surge in Tampa and other ‘gray swan’ disasters

Excellent Science Word of the Day: "Paleotempestology."
It's the study of prehistoric storms. The word pops up near the end of the new paper in Nature describing "Grey swan tropical cyclones" (Nature, as always, favors the British spelling of "gray"). My colleague Chris Mooney describes this new research on the E&E blog.
The paper has some jaw-dropping calculations, most notably that it is not inconceivable that in the hotter climate at the end of this century, a mega-storm could ride up along the shallow waters of Florida's Gulf Coast, take a sharp turn into Tampa Bay and (boosted by something called "Kelvin Waves"*) produce as much as a 36-foot storm surge at the head of the bay.
That would be, to say the least, a sub-optimal situation. Put it in 72-point type: Megastorm Threatens Bern's Steak House.
Of course, such a Tampa-blasting mega-storm isn't likely to happen. Nor is it likely that a monster storm will careen into the Persian Gulf and clobber Dubai -- another scenario entertained by the authors of the new paper. They are using computer models and the historical record to try to get an estimate of how frequently three vulnerable cities (the third is Cairns, Australia) could be hit by anomalously huge storms in the coming decades. These are places where the geography and bathymetry (lots of shallow water in particular) could amplify the devastation. In the case of Tampa, the authors can envision a low-probability, high-consequence event in which the bay essentially dumps its contents on the city and surrounding areas like a tipping bathtub.
Climate change is factored in, and that obviously amplifies the uncertainty. But there's a deeper point here: The future might include events with which we are totally unfamiliar.
