"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."

Wild Weather: U.S. Hit by 'Most Unusual Year' for Temperatures

By Miguel Llanos

If you haven't seen anything like this year's weather, well, neither has anyone else.

This year is on track to set a temperature record that climate researchers say is unique since the first time stats were taken in 1900.

A typical year in the U.S. would see near-average temperatures or a spike in either extremely cold or extremely warm temperatures. But this is the first year in which both cold and warm temperatures have ranged far outside the norms, according to the National Climatic Data Center.

Through July, at least, "this is the most unusual year on record" when it comes to that data, Deke Arndt, the NCDC's chief of climate monitoring, told NBC News. "We haven't seen this much extreme warmth entrenched alongside this much extreme cold for this long since at least 1900."

These abnormal temperatures aren't necessarily records for heat or cold. What's unusual is the persistence of temperatures above or below average. It's a trend that goes back to the start of the year and is tied to the now infamous "polar vortex" that started with cold winter Arctic air coming in as the jet stream dipped south.

"It's indicative of how 'stuck' the pattern has been this year — consistently cool in the East and consistently warm in the West," said Nick Wiltgen, a forecaster at The Weather Channel.

What Arndt calls "bipolar" conditions even led to July temperatures that for the U.S. overall were near average. "So the very cool conditions in the Midwest and warm conditions in the West really canceled each other out," he said

Cooler air from Canada is pushing against the jet stream, causing it to dip farther down, creating a U-shaped path across the U.S. "That ridge out West keeps it warm and that trough in the East keeps it cool," NBC meteorologist Dylan Dreyer explained in a recent report about the odd conditions.

Arndt agrees. "The big cold-air outbreaks in the Great Lakes and Midwest early in the year started the pattern" of cooler temperatures east of the Rockies, he said. "And those were reinforced several times during the spring, and dramatically in July."

"The western warmth has been persistent all year," he said, and California is heading for a record warm year as it suffers in a decade-long drought.

The "bipolar" conditions have had at least one major contribution to the U.S. economy.

"In the northern plains, it's unusual for very cool conditions and very dry to exist simultaneously in the summer," said South Dakota state climatologist Dennis Todey. And that combo has helped push U.S. corn production to record levels.

"We've had more outbreaks of Canadian air," he said, "which tends to be dry and less humid."

The conditions might not last much longer — at least for the Atlantic states.

The Climate Prediction Center, like the NCDC part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, expects above-average temperatures to settle in along the Atlantic coast this fall.

California, on the other hand, should continue to wither in its drought.

A weak El Nino, a periodic cycle that can trigger rains, is predicted by late fall, notes CPC forecaster Anthony Artusa.

But "for California to see much relief, that would almost require a pretty strong El Nino," he said, "and we just don't see that happening right now.

Sudden Dust Storms Sweep Over California and Arizona, Leaving Injuries and Damage (Aug 21)

Parts of southern California and western Arizona were plagued by damaging dust storms that rolled through the area Thursday evening.

Strong winds brought down trees, one of which fell on a man inside a car in Palm Springs, California, and he was rushed to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the Desert Sun.

"All of a sudden the wind just kind of picked up. There was a whole bunch of dust everywhere and the tree came down on the guy," Jhorel French, a neighbor who helped the injured man, told the Sun. "It was a crazy loud noise from the tree hitting the truck. It was nuts."

The haboobs were the product of a gust front that kicked up dust in the dry terrain, leading to an overturned semi near Imperial, California, and multiple reports of downed trees and power lines along the way, said weather.com senior meteorologist Jon Erdman.

Visible satellite imagery showed an upper-level low in the shape of a pronounced comma over the Lower Colorado River Valley, coupled with deep moisture, triggered a massive blow-up of thunderstorms from the mountains of San Diego County and the northern Baja Peninsula into the Mojave Desert.

Wind gusts peaked at 40 mph in Palm Springs and 48 mph in the Coachella Valley during the event, according to National Weather Service data.

A series of five tornadoes swept through northern Italy on Tuesday, prompting flights to be diverted and causing millions of euros worth of damage.

The tornadoes hit around the port city of Genoa, with some eyewitnesses stating they came close to hitting the wreck of the Costa Concordia cruise ship.

Flights to the city’s airport were diverted and those leaving delayed, while trains were also interrupted and roads closed, La Repubblica reported.

Damage is said to amount to millions of euros, with roofs ripped off buildings in the Prà neighbourhood and the seafront strewn with sun loungers hit by the stormy weather.

In Genoa’s Pegli neighbourhood 100mm of rain fell in just an hour, while footage shot by witnesses shows raging streams.

Locals can be heard responding to the “day of fear”, asdescribed by YouReporter, as they watch the tornadoes from afar. “It’s incredible” one person can be heard saying, while others remark on the huge size of one of the tornadoes and another on its impressive nature.

Two to three feet of hail crippled parts of Mexico City Sunday

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2014/08...

A hailstorm of mammoth proportions hammered sections of Mexico City Sunday. Several feet of hail piled up, making some city roads impassable.

“Roads such as the North Loop [el Periférico Norte] were flooded by hail and flooding, so municipal and Federal District workers labored for hours to clear them, Notimex reported,” wrote CNN Mexico.

Mexico news organization Azteca Noticias called it a “historical hailstorm”

August frost across parts of Wisconsin

The first frost of...summer?  Thursday started frosty across parts of Wisconsin.  In today's blog we look at unseasonably cold temperatures

Typically we talk about the first frost occurring in September, or even October.  Not the case this year.  Temperatures dipped to the low 30s across parts of northern Wisconsin Thursday morning.  The surface temperature and dew point map below is from just after 6am Thursday morning.  Land o' Lakes near the Wisconsin-Michigan border dipped to 32 degrees!

Central North America Temperatures Fluctuating Wildly in 2014 (Aug 16)

Temperature anomalies from July 2014

Northern Ohio is experiencing a distinctive oscillation pattern in temperatures this year.

The jet stream that controls the flow of air across North America has seen periods of fluctuation not normally seen in summer.

Instead of a zonal flow of air from west to east off the Pacific Ocean that keeps temperatures more consistent this time of year, the jet stream is seeing more of a wavy pattern that has allowed cooler Canadian air to sink south and stymie any chance of a hot summer in northeast Ohio.

In January, February and March, the temperature averaged a significant 6.8 degrees colder than normal during the three month period.

In April, May and June, the temperatures returned to more normal conditions, but were only one degree warmer than usual.

Now as we head into the latter part of summer, we have seen more disruptions to the jet stream over North America.

Thus, monthly temperatures have fallen below normal averages for July and for the first half of August.

Chatham-Kent and Windsor-Essex Ontario both shattered records early this morning for the coldest August 15 ever recorded.

In Windsor, the record low reached 9.6 C (49 F), the coldest it has ever been on this day since records began in 1866. In Chatham-Kent, the temperature dropped to 6 C (43 F), breaking the record of 8.3C (47 F) set in 1962.

“We had a very cold airmass. The cold air mass radiated under clear skies and we got down to very cold temperatures,” says Environment Canada Warning Preparedness Meteorologist Peter Kimball.

“Now We are rebounding now with temperatures up to 24 C (75 F) and then tomorrow, 26 C (79 F).

It’s also been cooler than normal for the past few weeks in Toronto.

On August 13, the city seemed to be under a chill: People across the city donned fall coats or sweaters as temperatures peaked at 18.4 C. With a low of 11.5 C, the mean temperature for the day was a measly 15 C.

In fact, Toronto broke a record for coldest daytime high: the previous record was 19.4 set in 1963 and 1979 (records from Pearson only go back to 1940).

After near-normal temperatures for the months of May and June, July did indeed prove to be cooler than normal for the city.

In Toronto, preliminary data from Environment Canada shows that the average temperature – taking in account both the highs and lows – for July was 20.2 C, which is below the normal median temperature of 21.5.

Impressive sand storm in Washington State [PHOTOS]

Wednesday, August 13, 2014,

An imposing, impressive sand storm occurred in the western area of the State of Washington and north Idaho Tuesday evening local time, an event which heralded extreme storms, lightning and heavy rain.

According to authorities, the sandstorm or "haboob" has reduced visibility to zero in the counties of Adams and Whitman, which has caused many accidents. About 10,000 households were left without electricity in Idaho.

The winds reached 80 km / h, pushing a wall of sand and dust while before advancing behind a strong storm.
