"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."

The East Troublesome Fire grew almost another 50,000 acres on Thursday, after growing about 100,000 acres Wednesday night. As of Thursday evening, the fire was estimated at 170,000 acres — making it the second largest fire in Colorado history.

East Troublesome Fire

“We prepare for the worst. This is the worst of the worst of the worst,” Grand County Sheriff Brett Schroetlin said.

There are concerns the fire could merge with the Cameron Peak Fire, which has burned over 200,000 acres.

“It is a potential, and certainly this year has been one of those years where those low potential events seem to be happening with high frequency,” Noel Livingston, incident commander, said Thursday night. “And, you know, a fire of this size, moving this far in October is a very low potential event in terms of what we would expect, and it’s occurred.”

“I don’t want to say you can’t happen right now. It doesn’t appear that it’s going to,” Livington said.

Livingston called it “an amazing amount of fire spread” in a Thursday morning briefing.

“Obviously yesterday was a significant fire day,” said the fire manager. “We saw about 20 miles of fire growth through the afternoon and into the night, which equates to about 100,000 acres of additional fire activity.”

“That’s really unheard of for a fire in this part of the world, in timber,” Livingston said Thursday evening.

Livingston said the East Troublesome Fire’s growth on Wednesday can be explained by several factors: strong winds, excessively dry conditions, low relatively humidity and beetle-kill trees among the fuels in the high elevations the wildfire spread through.

Colorado’s largest wildfires:

Cameron Peak – 2020 – 206,667 acres
East Troublesome Fire – 2020 – 170,000 acres
Pine Gulch – 2020 – 139,007
Hayman – 2002 – 137,760
Spring Creek – 2018 – 108,045
High Park – 2012 – 87,284

Two killed as massive forest fires rage in Syria

Wildfires across parts of the country have so far killed two people and forced many to flee; Lebanon and Israel also hit by blazes.

Massive forest fires in war-torn Syria this week have killed at least two people and burned swaths of land, state media and officials said, as blazes also hit neighbouring Lebanon.

Syrian state television on Saturday morning broadcast scenes from the affected areas, where firefighters were working to extinguish the blazes.It said hundreds of hectares had burned in the countryside of Syria’s coastal Latakia and Tartus provinces, and in the central Homs province.

The health ministry said two people died in Latakia province on Friday as a result of the fires, and that 70 people in the area were taken to hospital suffering from breathing difficulties.

Dozens of fires were burning, including “45 in Latakia and 33 in Tartus”, Syria’s Agriculture Minister Mohammed Hassan Qatana told a radio station on Friday.

“For the first time in its history, Syria is witnessing this [large] number of fires in a single day,” Qatana said.

The Latakia fire brigade said they were “facing the largest series of fires seen in Latakia province in years”.

Official news agency Sana said fires burned homes in the coastal city of Banias in Tartus province, as well as in Qardahah, President Bashar al-Assad’s hometown in Latakia.

Fires heavily damaged a building in Qardahah used as a storage for the state-owned tobacco company, part of which collapsed. The town’s local hospital was also surrounded by flames, according to local media reports.

State news agency SANA quoted Bassem Douba, director of the forestry department in Latakia’s agricultural department, as saying that dozens of people were evacuated from their homes in several villages. Those people sought refuge in central Latakia and Tartus, he said.

At least four firefighting teams were dispatched from the capital, Damascus, to assist in putting out the blazes. Some residents helped them by carrying water in buckets and pouring them on the flames.

The fires raging across Syria’s north, for the second time in months, were triggered by a heatwave that is unusual for this time of the year. They will likely cause considerable financial damage amid a deep economic crisis crippling the country.

Syria is currently suffering from an acute shortage in fuel ahead of the winter months, while power cuts have become more frequent across a country ravaged by more than nine years of war.

Among those affected by the devastating fires are landowners and farmers who rely on the agriculture sector to get by.

Images circulated on social media portrayed citrus and olive trees engulfed in flames in villages on the outskirts of Latakia.

Fires in Lebanon, Israel

Next door in Lebanon, meanwhile, there have been more than 100 fires across the country since Thursday, according to George Abu Musa, head of operations for the country’s civil defence.

“The situation is crazy, there are fires everywhere,” Abu Musa told the AFP news agency. “We have mobilised 80 percent of our personnel and almost all our centres in Lebanon,” he said.

There have been no reports of casualties in Lebanon.

Abu Musa said most of the blazes had been extinguished but some were still burning in the mountainous Chouf region in the south, and in Akkar in the north.

Military helicopters were assisting firefighters in “hard-to-reach” areas, he added. He was unable to identify the cause of the blazes but said wind and high temperatures were helping them spread.

Dozens of fires hit Lebanon in mid-October last year, amid unusually high temperatures and strong winds.

The government faced heavy criticism and accusations of ill-preparedness over its response to the 2019 blazes.

Days after Lebanon’s 2019 fires, mass protests broke out, triggered by proposed tax hikes but quickly transforming into months-long demonstrations against the ruling class, deemed by protesters as inept and corrupt.

Separately on Friday, authorities reported several fires across northern and central Israel and the occupied West Bank as temperatures soared, forcing thousands to evacuate.

Israeli police said in a statement firefighters and police forces evacuated 5,000 people as the fires spread for a second day on Saturday.

France sends in the army while rescue teams hunt for survivors in Italy as torrential rain and winds from Storm Alex leave at least two dead and up to 20 missing while landslides devastate buildings and roads

Houses were buried in mud and turned-over cars stuck in the riverbed in the French village of Breil-sur-Roya
In northwestern Italy the 'historic' flooding destroyed a section of a bridge over the Sesia river
French Prime Minister Jean Castex has deployed the army as 20 people on his side of the border remain unaccounted for after the flash floods washed away houses and triggered landslides
In Italy, a 53-year-old firefighter died during a rescue mission in the Aosta Valley, and a 36-year-old man died after his car was swept away by a river in Piedmont

The army has been deployed in France and rescue teams are hunting for survivors in Italy after torrential rain and winds from Storm Alex left two dead and 20 missing.

Breil-sur-Roya, a French village close to the Italian border, was a scene of devastation with houses buried in mud and turned-over cars stuck in the riverbed.

In northwestern Italy the 'historic' flooding destroyed a section of a bridge over the Sesia river.

'There are very many people of whom we have no news,' Castex said.

On the Italian side of the border several villages were also still cut off, and many roads blocked.

A 53-year-old firefighter died during a rescue mission in the Aosta Valley, and a 36-year-old man died after his car was swept away by a river in Piedmont.

French rescue efforts were concentrated on the Roya valley where around 1,000 firefighters backed up by helicopters and army units resumed their search hoping to find survivors, and giving assistance to people whose homes were destroyed or inaccessible

Storm Alex barrelled into France's west coast on Thursday bringing powerful winds and rain across the country before moving into Italy, where regions across the north suffered an onslaught on Saturday.

'What we are going through is extraordinary,' the prefect of the Alpes-Maritimes region said Bernard Gonzalez.

'We are used to seeing images of such disasters on other continents, sometimes with a lack of concern, but this here is something that affects us all,' he said.

France has declared the region a natural disaster zone.

Local authorities gave shelter to some 200 people overnight, while food and thousands of bottles of water were being airlifted into remote villages cut off by the storms.

Gonzalez called on the families of the missing people not to give up hope.

'Just because their loved ones haven't been able to get in touch doesn't mean that they have been taken by the storm,' he said.

Many landline and some mobile phone services were disrupted, with some villages using satellite phones to communicate with rescue services.

Despite forecasts of more rain, rescue efforts were to continue throughout Sunday, Gonzalez said.

'The helicopter procession will continue all day long,' he said, adding however that the prospect of more heavy weather was 'a worry'.

Comment by SongStar101 on September 10, 2020 at 9:08am: Okay this is sudden! 99F to Snowfall in 24hrs, earliest snowfall on record.

September snow blankets parts of four states; more than a foot in some spots

Seventeen inches of snow, 70-degree temperature drops and the earliest snowfall on record were just part of a record September winter blast.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/weather/september-snow-blankets-parts-...

Seventeen inches of snow in Wyoming, the earliest snowfall on record for New Mexico and the earliest flakes in decades for parts of Colorado — these are just a few of the astonishing weather reports coming out of a record-setting September week.

On Wednesday morning, snow was falling over parts of Colorado and 5 million people remained under winter weather alerts across portions of the Northern and Central Rockies. Those in the Denver area woke up to 1 to 4 inches of snow coating trees and grassy surfaces.

A few more inches of snow was possible, mostly at the highest elevations, before the snow was expected to end by afternoon.

In addition to parts of Colorado and New Mexico experiencing their earliest snow on record, the weather had whiplashed in just days from record-setting temperatures near or exceeding 100 degrees, to the sudden winter blast.

Rapid City, South Dakota, set a U.S. record for the fastest turnaround between 100 degree temperatures and measurable snow, after it hit 102 degrees F on Saturday, only to then see an inch of snow on Monday. This two-day gap broke the record for shortest amount of time between those two weather observations, the previous record being Ardmore, South Dakota, in September 1929 when a similar event took place over the course of approximately three days.

Rapid City also topped the list for greatest temperature drop. After setting an all-time September high on Saturday, the temperature dropped more than 70 degrees in two days, also setting a record for earliest first freeze on Monday.

With 2 to 5 inches of snow blanketing Boulder, Colorado, the area saw more snow on Tuesday than Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia saw all of last year, combined.

Here are the top snowfall totals for each state:

Wyoming: Casper 17 inches

Montana: Red Lodge 15.5 inches

South Dakota: Terry Peak 15 inches

Colorado: Alamosa 14 inches

New Mexico: Canon Plaza 5 inches

In addition to the snow, temperatures 30 to 40 degrees below average will lead to numerous record lows and record cold highs Wednesday and Thursday morning. Highs on Wednesday across the Rockies and Plains will only get into the 40s and 50s, and lows Thursday morning will dip back down into the 20s and 30s.

This chill in the air won't last long, however, with temperatures expected to rebound to the 70s by Friday and 80s by Saturday in Denver

Comment by Derrick Johnson on September 10, 2020 at 4:53am: Utah declares state of emergency after wind storm knocked down thousands of trees

Gov. Gary Herbert declared a state of emergency in response to Tuesday’s historic windstorm, which killed one person and caused significant damage from Salt Lake City to Logan.

Herbert made the announcement Wednesday, after touring parts of Salt Lake City’s hard-hit Rose Park neighborhood. Such a declaration will let the state access federal funds.

Rose Park was one of many areas in northern Utah that sought to restore order Wednesday, after the storm leveled thousands of trees and cut the power to more than 170,000 homes and businesses.

When asked how much money might be pumped into the cleanup effort, Herbert said, “it’s a lot,” and noted officials are still assessing how much.

Salt Lake and Davis counties, along with seven municipalities, have already made emergency declarations, Jess Anderson, the state’s commissioner of public safety, said Wednesday after Herbert’s tour.

As of Wednesday night, 80,000 homes and businesses were still without electricity as Rocky Mountain Power crews jumped from outage to outage. The company has no estimate on when service will be restored to all its Utah customers — but it could be “days" for some. And the outages left many schools from Ogden to the south end of Salt Lake County closed for a second day.

In the Salt Lake City area, winds gusted in the range of 20 to 40 mph. But that’s a far cry from the hurricane-force gale with gusts up to 99 mph that hit the area on T.... The winds also killed a man in South Salt Lake.

Truck driver Donald Hardy, 61, was making a delivery at Industrial Injection at 2858 S. 300 West. The winds caught his truck door and slammed it into his face, according to South Salt Lake Police spokesperson Danielle Croyle.

“We’re not sure exactly what happened," Croyle said, “but he fell backward and hit his head.”

Hardy and his wife had sold all their belongings and lived on the road over the past 18 months.

“It’s a pretty sad situation,” Croyle said.

Spencer Hall, spokesperson for Rocky Mountain Power, called it a “historic 40-year storm.” He said all local crews are working on restoring power and a team from Iowa should arrive Thursday to help.

The areas most heavily affected by power outages in Salt Lake County are Millcreek, the Avenues in Salt Lake City and the northeast section of the city, South Salt Lake, Murray, Holladay and northern portions of Taylorsville.

Hall said there are about 250 workers out in the field. On Tuesday, the focus was on connecting transmission lines, hub stations and other backbone pieces. On Wednesday, the work shifted to residential repairs, which will be prioritized by groups that can bring on as many customers as possible with one repair.

According to Christine Kruse, a meteorologist in the Salt Lake City office of the National Weather Service, the Wasatch Front experiences one or two isolated storms like what happened Tuesday every year, “but it’s rare for it to be of this magnitude and this widespread.”

Wind speeds in Centerville were actually slightly higher during a similar storm in December 2011 — 102 mph vs. 99 mph on Tuesday — “but that was much more limited."

She said Tuesday’s destructive winds came as a result of a “very cold air mass over the central part of the United States, and then on top of that, the weather disturbance that was creating these strong winds was strengthening overhead. So there were 60 to 70 mile an hour winds coming out of Wyoming into Utah. That’s exceptionally strong.”
