"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."

Two teenagers among five dead in storms in Poland

Power was cut to around half a million homes and businesses as violent winds downed trees and ripped off roofs

Five people, including two Girl Guides, have died in freak accidents as violent storms hit Poland amid a heatwave.

The two girls, aged 13 and 14, were crushed by falling trees while sleeping in a tent when a storm hit the campground for Girl Guides and Boy Scouts in the northern village of Suszek.

Another 20 children were said to have been injured.

A woman died when a tree hit her house in the northern village of Konarzyny.

In a nearby village, a man sleeping in a tent also perished after being hit by a tree brought down by high winds.

Authorities in the same region also confirmed the death of a fifth victim, a 48-year-old man, crushed by a tree.

A total of 28 people were reported injured.

Power was cut to around half a million homes and businesses as violent winds downed trees and ripped off roofs in northern and southern regions.

An unusual heatwave saw peak temperatures soar to the high-30s Celsius across Poland in recent days.

However, milder weather is expected this weekend when the mercury is forecast to dip to the mid-20s in most regions.

Unprecedented!

Two wildfires are currently burning on Greenland. Satellite photo of one of the wildfires burning in Greenland taken on August 3, 2017. by Sentinel-2B

How can you imagine a fire on Greenland as three-quarters of the island is covered by a permanent ice sheet, and permafrost is found on most of the rest of the island. This is why it is very unusual, and possibly unprecedented, that two wildfires are burning on the giant island.

The fires are near Sisimiut in Western Greenland north of the Arctic Circle. They were first spotted from an airplane on August 3, 2017.

These fires appear to be peatland fires, as there are low grass, some shrub, and lots of rocks on the western edge of the Greenland Ice Sheet. They are likely occurring in areas of degraded permafrost.

The Sisimiut fires in Greenland on August 3 2017.

The European Union Earth Observation Programme has stated that wildfires in Greenland are rare but have no data on previous wildland fire activity in this region.

The wildfires are located near the city of Sismiut in West Greenland. Natural or human induced?

While it is not unprecedented for satellites to observe fire activity in Greenland, a preliminary analysis suggests that MODIS has detected far more fire activity in Greenland in 2017 than it did during any other year since the sensor began collecting data in 2002:

Fognado! Massive cloud of mist suddenly engulfs Californian beach, blotting out the sun, sending sand and umbrellas flying

• The tidal wave of fog cascaded over Natural Bridges Beach in Santa Cruz
• The dense cloud blocks out the light and the wind whip up into a frenzy
• But it blows over as suddenly as it arrived, leaving sun stream through again

An enormous, menacing cloud of mist suddenly engulfed a Californian beach, blotting out the sun and sending sand and umbrellas flying in what resembled an Armageddon-like nature event. 

The all-engulfing cloud approached with a steely menace on the Natural Bridges Beach in Santa Cruz last Wednesday, blocking out the sun and nudging seabirds into a loud squawking frenzy.

'It was really hot in Santa Cruz, so I went down to Natural Bridges Beach. About five minutes after I sat down, the sky got dark, the wind picked up, and a huge fog cloud rolled in fast,' the unnamed person who recorded the footage said.

'Umbrellas were flying, sand was pelting me in the face and people were quickly leaving the beach. After only a few minutes, the fog cloud passed and the sun came out.' 

In the astonishing video, the enormous cloud blocks out the sun, nudging seabirds into loud squawking action as they suddenly take to the sky and wheel about in the air, investigating this strange new atmosphere.

But despite the menacing clouds, beach-goers seem relatively unperturbed at the start and continue with their seaside recreation, paddling and playing with balls on the shore.

But the wind then whips-up into a storm-like frenzy and towels flap violently in the gusts.

The all-engulfing cloud approached with a steely menace on the Natural Bridges Beach in Santa Cruz last Wednesday like an avalanche crashing down a mountain

The sky went dark as it rolled over the beach like an Armageddon-like nature event

But almost as soon as it arrived, the strange mist leaves, blowing away from the beach and leaving the sunlight stream through to earth once more. 

Reaction was predictably animated online after the video was shared on YouTube.

James Austria wrote: 'There's an alien spaceship inside that dense cloud.'

And Chrome Who wrote: 'It's the end of the world.'

The wind whipped-up into a sudden frenzy and sand blew about beach-goers

Aug in Europe Swelters Under a Heat Wave Called ‘Lucifer’

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/06/world/europe/europe-heat-wave.html

In Romania, the police banned heavy traffic on major roads, and trains slowed to a relative crawl.

Animal rights groups in Serbia’s capital, Belgrade, urged citizens to place bowls of water outside their buildings and in parks for stray dogs.

High temperatures this summer have brought punishing heat to regions in the United States like the Pacific Northwest — where generations had shunned air-conditioning — reaching as high as 104 in Seattle and 107 in Portland, Ore. In parts of Asia, like Pakistan, a blast of scorching weather this year also had people there reaching for comparisons to hell on earth as records fell.

Experts say it’s all part of a broader trend: Summers are, indeed, getting hotter. Here is what our correspondents across Europe reported about the heat on the Continent.

Sun-kissed Italy has become sun-cursed. With temperatures in recent days regularly rising north of 100 degrees, a nationwide drought leaving rivers and mouths dry and countryside kindling and arsonists combining to ignite the landscape, Italians are, well, boiling.

Farmers are lamenting more than $1 billion in revenue lost to drought and singed fields. Firefighters are busy. Packs of gum are melting in their wrappers.

In Rome, the heat wave has coincided with a meltdown of public services, including public transport. The city’s older residents bunch together in the narrow shade of bus stop signs waiting for buses that are late or out of service.

On trams without air-conditioning, women fanned themselves and children, slicked with sweat, across the aisle.

(In Italy, air-conditioning is viewed, even by doctors in offices without air-conditioning, as a malevolent, unnatural force responsible for stiff necks, respiratory ailments and anything else not easily diagnosable. Taxi drivers refuse to turn it on as a public health service.)

In Venice, tourists are cramming with their suitcases onto the city’s water buses, their arms squeezed clammily together. Tempers are running as high as the temperatures. On a recent afternoon, a water bus driver instructed a woman to carry her suitcase to the lower deck.

“I can’t,” the woman, visibly sweating, snapped. “I’m old!”

Italians who can do it have escaped to the seaside, where they have summer houses or apartments or spots in camping ports. The beaches on the western coast of Tuscany are packed with Italians wading up to their knees and splashing their shoulders.

On Sunday afternoon, in Castiglione della Pescaia, on the coast of Maremma, the manager of a restaurant apologetically explained that the air-conditioning wasn’t working because the air was too hot to be conditioned.

JASON HOROWITZ

Trains slow to a crawl

In Romania, two people died from the heat last week — a 45-year-old man working in a field in the northeast part of the country and a 60-year-old man along the Black Sea coast. In Bucharest, the government warned people to stay indoors during the hottest hours.

Trucks and heavy traffic were ordered off the main highways over the weekend. Trains had also been running slower than usual in Romania because of the heat.

But by Sunday, the hottest of the weather had pushed to the south, and only two of Romania’s southernmost counties were still under a “red alert” warning for high temperatures.

In southern Serbia, the heat got so bad that some train tracks warped and service had to be suspended.

In Slovenia, which hugs the eastern edge of the Alps, the ski resort of Vogel saw its first “tropical night” on Wednesday, marking the first time at that altitude (1,500 meters, or about 4,920 feet) that overnight temperatures failed to dip below 68 degrees.

RICK LYMAN

The pain in Spain

About half of Spain was placed under an emergency alert over the weekend because of the heat wave, as forecasts predicted temperatures of up to 111 degrees Fahrenheit (44 degrees Celsius).

In the southern city of Córdoba, the temperature reached almost 113 degrees on Friday afternoon. However, no major incident was reported, and the continuing high temperatures are slightly milder than that experienced in mid-July in Spain, when the temperature reached a record of almost 117 degrees in Córdoba.

RAPHAEL MINDER

Step away from the alcohol

The public health institute in Serbia’s capital offered residents simple instructions for beating the heat:

• Keep wet towels on the windows if you don’t have air-conditioning.

• Avoid physical exertion.

• Avoid alcohol.

No relief at nighttime

The heat wave that hit southeastern France throughout the week increased pollution levels. The authorities also issued safety warnings on proper hydration as thousands of incoming and departing vacationers clogged roads across the region.

Corsica was hit especially hard. Nighttime offered no respite to inhabitants of Marignana, a village on the island where the temperature stayed at nearly 87 degrees Fahrenheit on Monday night into Tuesday.

On Wednesday, France’s national electricity provider announced that energy consumption on the island had reached a record high the previous night.

The French Riviera was not spared either, especially inland. In Puget-Théniers, a village about 25 miles northwest of Nice in the Alpes-Maritimes Department, the national weather forecaster registered a record high of 104 degrees Fahrenheit on Tuesday.

In several areas of the neighboring Alpes-de-Haute-Provence Department, local authorities prohibited irrigating land, watering lawns or filling up swimming pools between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m.

In the port of Marseille, a dozen students were hired by the town hall to check in on the city’s older residents by calling them or visiting their homes, a summertime measure that was begun in 2003 after a particularly deadly heat wave.

On Sunday, however, the national weather forecaster lifted its heat-wave warning, as temperatures decrease across the region.

AURELIEN BREEDEN

Burning up, literally

Summer means the start of a dangerous dry season for many parts of Europe. In Portugal, a raging forest fire in June killed scores of people, some of whom were trapped in their cars, and forced many to flee their homes. And last month, fires forced the evacuation of over 20,000 in southern France.

Wildfires revisited parts of France this week, burning for days near the town of Palneca, and torching more than 400 acres of forest.

On Friday morning, a wildfire in the southern Greek island of Kythira, southwest of Athens, led to the evacuation of a village and power cuts.

It was contained but flared again on Saturday as the wind picked up, reports said. No homes have been reported damaged and there are no reports of fatalities.

Temperatures were forecast to reach 108 degrees in parts of mainland Greece over the weekend.

Hail as big as tennis balls

Polish officials have been warning of possible infrastructure failures as the country’s electricity demand set a record for a summer morning at 23.82 gigawatts last Tuesday.

At the peak of the heat wave, employers in public administrations in several communes in the east and southeast of Poland ordered their employees to leave work two hours early.

Scorching temperatures also caused dramatic weather breakdowns, including strong storms that brought a whirlwind, as well as hail the size of tennis balls, injuring dozens of people across the country.

JOANNA BERENDT

What heat wave?

Of course, there were some parts of Europe (London, anyone?) that have escaped the blistering heat.

“There is no heat in Germany. It is a cool 68F in Berlin, and even chillier in Munich. Parts of Austria are being flooded, so there is no heat in the German-speaking world. Reports here are that Spain and Portugal are also burning up.”

MELISSA EDDY

“No sweltering in Moscow. Been the coldest summer for years. Today was considered ‘hot,’ but temp only rose to low 70s. Much the same in Baltics, where I was yesterday: Rained solidly.”

WATCH: Shocking drone footage shows effect of Lucifer heatwave on Europe

SHOCKING drone footage has been released showing the devastating impact of heatwave Lucifer on the Italian Alps, as temperatures soared to over 40 Celsius.

https://youtu.be/TZbXRhcr51o

As the heatwave sizzles Europe, the Continent’s ski resorts have been abandoned as their snow melts away under the intense heat.

Eerie drone footage of the Stelio Glacier, which stands at almost 3000 metres above sea level, shows the important summer ski resort reduced to bare granite.

Video captures a vast barren landscape as abandoned cable cars hang above unused as the area is devoid of skiers.

Lucifer has caused at least 11 European countries have issued grim warnings of “dangerous” weather conditions.

A “red alarm”, indicating a potentially deadly risk from the heat, has been issued for popular Italian cities Florence, Rome, Venice and Verona.

Authorities in a raft of holiday destinies popular with British tourists are warning visitors to stay in the shade and carry water at all times.

In Italy, hospitals have seen a 15 per cent spike in emergency admissions from patients suffering from both burns, hearthstone and other heat-related illnesses.

Italian meteorologists have predicted temperatures of around 40C in the capital Rome and several parts of the country until Monday.

The number of Italian cities on the health ministry’s maximum heat alert has now reached 26.

Sardinia and the southern parts of Italy are experiencing temperatures of up to 42C.

With Temperatures in the UK recently struggling to make it past the low 20s, holidaymakers have been warned to take care.

Tourists have been advised to stay in shaded areas while warnings are in place.

Incredible photos capture the destruction caused by rare August tornado that hospitalized more than 24 and destroyed entire shopping district in Tulsa

• An EF2 tornado with wind speed of 111-135mph struck a shopping district in Tulsa around 1am Sunday
• Thirty people were injured and transported to nearby hospitals; two suffering life-threatening injuries 
• Two smaller tornadoes were seen shortly afterward on radar about 25 miles east and northeast of Tulsa 
• Thunderstorms with dangerous lightning were expected to continue through Monday in the area
• Weather officials said tornados can occur anytime, but it's extremely rare for them to occur in the summer 

A rare late summer tornado smashed into a shopping district of Tulsa early Sunday just hours after it was packed with people, sending more than two dozen people to hospitals.

Two of those injured are suffering from life-threatening injuries, but no deaths have been reported. 

The tornado struck shortly after 1am in the midtown area of the city, according to city of Tulsa spokeswoman Kim Meloy. 

Many of the restaurants in the shopping district that was heavily affected by the tornado were restaurants that were either preparing to close or were still open.  

National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Teague said the tornado was rated an EF2, with wind speeds of 111-135 mph and that two smaller, 'probably' EF0 tornadoes with winds of 65-85 mph were seen shortly afterward on radar near Inola and Claremore, about 25 miles east and northeast of Tulsa.

Emergency Medical Services Authority spokeswoman Kelli Bruer said the ambulance company transported a total of 13 people to area hospitals, eight from a TGI Fridays restaurant, which lists its closing time as 1am, four from a 24-hour Whataburger restaurant, and one person who was in the area.

St. Francis Hospital spokeswoman Lauren Landwerlin said about 30 people were treated at the hospital. Meloy said many people were taken to hospitals by private vehicles.

One of the most severely injured was in TGI Fridays and the other was inside the Whataburger, Bruer said.

The timing of the storm was fortunate, according to Meloy, because hundreds, if not thousands of people were in the area only hours earlier.

'It's a highly commercial area with a lot of people normally in there. There's a mall, there's a movie theater,' in addition to the restaurants, Meloy said. The area also includes some industrial sites.

The mall had closed at 9pm Saturday, according to its website. A phone call to the mall was not answered Sunday.

The estimated one-square-mile area remained blocked off Sunday while crews worked to remove the debris, Meloy said.

Resident Rayvonne Marcheselli told The Associated Press she received a tornado warning on her cellphone about five minutes before the storm hit and was able to get her 16, 17, and 18-year-old sons downstairs in their two-story home.

'They pounced on the couch and then the 'boom' hit, and I was like 'what was that?'' Marcheselli said.

Later Sunday morning, she saw the damage.

'Like a ... razor, it just took out a path of trees through here,' Marcheselli said.

Some of the damaged power poles leaned precariously over roadways, with power lines dangling to the ground, and forced the closing of Interstate 244 for about two hours immediately after the storm. 

The wind ripped a 'Pet Smart' sign down and it ended up dangling from power lines. The TGI Fridays restaurant was extensively damanged.

More than 17,000 customers were without power at one point and about 4,200 remained without electricity Sunday afternoon, according to Public Service Company of Oklahoma.

Tornadoes are generally associated with spring months, but weather service meteorologist Amy Jankowski said they can occur any time.

'I wouldn't say outrageously rare, but it is uncommon,' to see an August tornado, Jankowski said.

The weather service said thunderstorms with dangerous lightning the most likely threat were expected to continue through Monday.

Temps In Vacaville Shoot Up Overnight Due To Rare ‘Heat Burst’ Event

VACAVILLE (CBS13) – Nightfall didn’t bring much relief from the heat for residents in Vacaville thanks to a rare weather phenomenon.

Vacaville suffered through high temperatures of 108 degrees on Thursday, according to the National Weather Service. By 8 p.m., temperatures had dropped down to the low 80s – like what you’d usually expect to happen when the sun goes down.

However, after bottoming out at 80, temperatures actually started to shoot up as the night progressed.

By midnight, temperatures had spiked at 95 degrees.

NWS says the bizarre temperature spike is due to a rare event called a “heat burst.”

Much like downburst, a heat burst is usually associated with decaying thunderstorms. Heat bursts are basically the inverse of a downburst – instead of cool and moist air, hot and dry air is rushed toward the surface.

Forecasters say heat bursts, while remarkable, are not exactly uncommon. Oklahoma often sees more than a dozen heat bursts ever year, NWS says.

Thunderstorms did roll through the region overnight, blanketing Northern California and putting on a light show mainly in the San Joaquin Valley.

Temperatures in Vacaville fell back down after midnight, but it was still a warm summer night for most of Northern California.
