"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.
FORTY FIVE sightseers will spend the night trapped in broken-down cable cars in the French Alps after rescue operation to free tourists is called off
Police say 110 people were trapped in cable cars this afternoon
The incident happened on a cable connecting the Aiguille du Midi station in France to the Italian Punta Helbronner
Strong winds could be to blame, according to initial reports
Rescuers managed to bring 65 sightseers to safety, but the remainder face a night in the cabins
Dozens of tourists will spend the night trapped in cable cars suspended in the French Alps after high winds caused a mechanical failure.
A huge rescue operation was launched after more than 100 people were left trapped in panoramic cable cars suspended 50 metres in the air close to Mont Blanc in the Alps this afternoon.
French, Italian and Swiss rescue services used four helicopters to evacuate 65 of the 110 sightseers stranded in Chamonix, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said in a statement.
Relieved cable car passengers express relief after rescue
Survivors emerge after being taken to safety in Chamonix, but 45 had to spend the night in cable cars
Rescuers were still endeavouring to free the people trapped in cable cars late into the night, and helicopters brought 65 tourists down to land
The rescue operation to bring the remaining people trapped to safety will resume at 6.30am on Friday.
But with darkness falling, rescue services have been unable to bring the other 60 to safety, meaning they will have to spend the night in the cabins.
The tourists rescued so far are believed to be French, Italian and American.
Rescuers were able to take 65 people to safety after the cable cars became stuck in Chamonix, but another 45 people will not be rescued until tomorrow
France’s Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve praised the courage of the French and Italian rescuers.
He said: 'They are engaged in a delicate operation to rescue 110 people trapped following a technical incident.'
They were trapped in 36 panoramic Mont Blanc pods, which seat a maximum of four people each.
The rescue operation has been suspended for the night, but water, food and survival blankets have been distributed.
4 Dead, 1 Missing After Torrential Rainfall, Flooding Slams Greece
Four people have died and one remains missing in Greece due to flash flooding.
The torrential rainfall has caused extensive damage in some cities, sweeping cars out to sea.
Rescue crews received more than 1,000 distress calls and rescued 74 people.
At least four people have died and one is missing in Greece after flooding caused by heavy rains hit the southern and northern parts of the country Wednesday.
"The heavy rain was caused by a 'blocking' pattern in the upper atmosphere," said weather.com meteorologist Tom Moore. "An area of low pressure aloft is stuck over southern Italy as a large high-pressure ridge builds north of it. There has been a persistent flow of moisture around the low from the Mediterranean and Ionian Seas into Greece."
The fire service told the Associated Press that two women, ages 80 and 63, were found dead in their flooded basement homes in the city of Kalamata and its outskirts. A 90-year-old man was also found dead in the Kalamata area and the body of a 73-year-old man was found in a swollen stream bed near Sparta.
In northern Greece, authorities are still searching for a woman in her 60s who has been missing since calling her husband early Wednesday to say she was abandoning her flooded car near Michaniona.
“I have never seen anything like it,” Kalamata Mayor Panagiotis Nikas told Reuters. “About 140 millimeters (5.5 inches) of rain fell in an hour this morning … It hasn’t stopped raining since yesterday at lunchtime.”
Thermaikos Mayor Yiannis Mavromatis appealed for the municipality to be placed under a state of emergency after the rains damaged roads and washed cars into the sea.
Seven communities in the wider region were cut off by the flooding and had extensive flood damage, Reuters also reported. Major damage was also reported in Thessaloniki, where cars were also washed out to sea and piled together due to the rain. Rescue crews reported they received more than 1,000 distress calls and rescued 74 people.
In parts of the southern Peloponnese, the rainfall also inundated hundreds of homes and businesses.
“Some parts present an image of total destruction, while elsewhere there is partial destruction,” Mavromatis told the AP.
Abandoned cars are piled into the sea after being washed away by torrential rainfall and flooding in Greece on Sept. 7, 2016.
Hermine barrels north: First hurricane to hit Florida in 11-years leaves one dead and more than 200,000 without power with 22 million still in its path as the storm thunders up toward the East Coast
'Life-threatening' Hurricane Hermine made landfall in Florida with 80mph winds and 12ft storm surges
Category 1 storm hit just east of St Marks, south east of Tallahassee, at 1.30am and is heading north east
Hurricane slammed into rural part of Florida, knocking out power for more than 200,000 people across four states
Authorities in Ocala, Florida said a man was found dead under a tree in a wooded area early Friday
Heavy rain, storm surge flooding and high winds are sweeping ashore and the system will then spread up the coast to the Carolinas on Friday and Saturday
It is the first time a storm of this magnitude has hit Florida since Hurricane Wilma killed five in 2005
In Florida, there are concern the heavy rainfall and high winds from Hermine could sideline the state's efforts to fight the Zika virus
After pushing through Georgia, Hermine was expected to move into the Carolinas and up the East Coast with the potential for drenching rain and deadly flooding in New Jersey and New York City
On Friday morning, an estimated 22 million people were under some sort of tropical storm warning or watch
Hurricane Hermine slammed into Florida leaving one person dead, nearly 200,000 people across four states without power and caused dozens of towns in its path to evacuate as it continues to cause chaos on its way into Georgia and the Carolinas.
The Category 1 storm hit just east of St. Marks around 1.30am EDT with winds around 80mph, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.
Projected storm surges of up to 12 feet menaced a wide swath of the coast and an expected drenching of up to 10 inches of rain carried the danger of flooding along the storm's path over land, including the state capital Tallahassee, which had not been hit by a hurricane since Kate in 1985.
Florida Governor Rick Scott, who declared a state of emergency in 51 counties, said 6,000 National Guard members are ready to mobilize once the storm has passed.
Hermine - downgraded to a tropical storm - was weakening as it moved into southern Georgia, and was centered about 35 northeast of Valdosta, Georgia, moving north-northeast near 14mph as of 8am EDT on Friday.
After pushing through Georgia on Friday, Hermine was expected to move into the Carolinas on Saturday and up the East Coast with the potential for drenching rain and deadly flooding in New Jersey and New York City over the Labor Day weekend.
Lynne Garrett speaks to loved ones on the phone as she surveys damage outside of her home from the winds and storm surge associated with Hurricane Hermine which made landfall overnight in the area on Friday in Tampa, Florida
The devastation caused by Hermine is shown above in Cedar Key, Florida, leaving a street blocked from debris
Strong gusts downed power lines and trees as widespread flooding inundated communities in Florida before the hurricane weakened into a tropical storm as it reached Georgia and South Carolina, where conditions deteriorated early on Friday morning
An aerial view of the flooded Ganges river in Allahabad city
The monsoon floods in India's Ganges river this year have broken previous records, officials have told the BBC.
They said water levels reached unprecedented levels at four locations in northern India.
The highest record was in Patna, the state capital of Bihar where flood waters reached 50.52m (166ft) on 26 August, up from 50.27m in 1994.
Floods across India this year have killed more than 150 people and displaced thousands.
'Unprecedented'
"We have also recorded unprecedented flood levels at Hathidah and Bhagalpur of Bihar state and Balliya of Uttar Pradesh," chief of India's Central Water Commission GS Jha said.
"In all these four places, the floods crossed the previous highest flood level and they all were unprecedented."
Bihar is one of the worst flood-hit states in India with at least 150 deaths and nearly half a million people evacuated.
Neighbouring Uttar Pradesh has also been severely affected by floods in the Ganges.
The holy city of Varanasi has been submerged by the swollen Ganges The Ganges has inundated large swathes of Uttar Pradesh state
The third largest river in the world flows through these north Indian states meeting its tributaries before emptying into the Bay of Bengal.
The Indian Meteorological Department, however, has recorded deficient rainfall in these states past week and average rains since the monsoon started in June.
Breaking embankments
Some experts have blamed the silt the river carries for the floods. The Ganges is one of the highest sediment load carrying rivers.
The silt deposition is said to have raised the river's bed-level causing it to break embankments and flood the adjoining human settlements and farmlands.
The mayor of a southern Ontario town where houses were torn apart Wednesday wants to know why a warning from Environment Canada was sent out only after the twisters touched down.
LaSalle, Ont. mayor Ken Antaya said he feels lucky that no serious injuries occurred as a result of the storm that uprooted trees, threw RVs and boats across neighbourhoods and damaged at least 15 homes.
Three people suffered minor injuries in what Environment Canada confirmed Thursday were two tornados, an F1 that hit LaSalle and an F2 that struck Windsor.
Damage from a possible tornado in Essex County in Southwestern Ontario on Aug. 24, 2016.
“We have to improve our warning system, because if this would have occurred in a more densely populated area we may have had some problems,” Antaya told CP24.
Antaya was dining with friends around 7 p.m. when he received a call about high winds, flying debris, and a hydro pole on fire in a nearby neighbourhood. He jumped his car, arriving on the scene at the same time as fire crews.
Environment Canada issued the tornado warning at 7:29 p.m.
“It came after the tornado actually touched down,” Antaya told CTV News Channel
Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens told reporters at a press conference that many of his constituents are also concerned about the lack of warning.
Environment Canada climatologist Geoff Coulson told CTV News Channel a warning wasn’t issued because the storm was only a “heavy shower” when it crossed the Detroit River near LaSalle.
“The average lead time for a tornado warning anywhere is about 10 to 15 minutes,” he added.
Video and photos posted online show what appears to be a grey funnel cloud travelling through multiple neighbourhoods.
LaSalle resident Bryan Cavanaugh said his house shook and it sounded like a fog horn going off.
Rose Owens, another area resident, said she panicked when she saw the twister, “thinking this is going right for my home and my kids are at home alone.”
India floods: Over 300 dead, millions affected as monsoon floods force villagers into relief camps
At least 300 people have died in eastern and central India and more than 6 million others have been affected by floods that have submerged villages, washed away crops, destroyed roads and disrupted power and phone lines, officials say.
Heavy monsoon rains have caused rivers, including the mighty Ganges and its tributaries, to burst their banks forcing people into relief camps in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttarakhand.
Government officials in Bihar, which has seen some of the worst flooding this year with almost 120 dead and more than 5 million affected, said the situation was serious.
"The flood waters have engulfed low-lying areas, homes and fields of crops," said Zafar Rakib, a district magistrate of Katihar, one of 24 districts out of Bihar's 38 districts which have been hit by the deluge.
"We have shifted people to higher ground and they are being provided with cooked rice, clean drinking water, polythene sheets," he said.
The holy city of Varanasi, where thousands of Hindus flock daily, was also forced to halt cremations along the banks of sacred Ganges river — forcing families to cremate their relatives on the terrace roofs of nearby houses, officials said.
Television pictures showed villagers wading waist deep in floodwaters with their livestock, mud-and-brick homes collapsing and people climbing into wooden boats to get to relief camps.
"We are all worried about what we should do. For the last four days we have living like this. We don't even have any food to eat," 42-year-old villager Doda Yadav told the NDTV news station from Ballia district in Uttar Pradesh.
Officials said villagers would return home from relief camps when water levels receded, although the Indian Meteorological Department has forecast more rains for central India over the next two days.

Fresh and unstable summers in the UK, all the fault of the Jet Stream
- August 15, 2016 -
The UK could be in the middle of a 10-20 year cycle of rainy summers
Rumors about a 'heat wave in the UK in the coming weeks have spread a little' everywhere, but Nick Finnis, expert NetWeather , explains that this is unlikely. And 'in fact since 2006 that the country has lived summers "indifferent", often fresh, unstable, rainy.
The last "good seasons" were those of 1989, 1990, 1995, 2003 and 2006. On the contrary, says the expert, in recent summers has been difficult to detect hot days, with temperatures above 26.6 ° C. This year, a good time was between 18 and 20 July, when there were 33.5 ° C degrees nell'Oxforshire.
Last summer they are recorded average temperatures in June, July and lowest in cold and instability in August. In 2014, the season was slightly better, but "ruined" by a cold and rainy August.
So why the summers have become recently more and more variables and fresh with only brief forays hot?
According to scientists and weather forecasters from the Met Office in Exeter, gathered to discuss the possible causes of the unusual weather season in recent years, the UK could find itself in the midst of a 10-20 year cycle of rainy summers: he last 6 summers of 7 were characterized by temperatures below media in good weather and the rains above average
A possible cause, explains Nick Finnis, could be found in the position of the jet stream, which for example this summer is positioned at or just south of the UK and pushes the hot summer to southern Europe for most of the time. Consequently, in order to have less rainy summer and stable weather, the jet stream (which is rare lately) should move north and west of the United Kingdom to allow high pressure to expand.

France's weird weather causes more chaos – just as the grapes are due to be harvested.
Growers in Languedoc are in shock after a brutal hailstorm wiped out half the grape crop just days away from the start of harvest.
Bonmarchand, who has been in the region for five years, said he had never seen a storm like it. "I don't have much experience of this kind of disaster, but I was speaking to the former winemaker, who is 92, and he told me this morning that he can't remember as violent an incident of hail either."
Visible satellite image of the Hudson Bay, Canada, storm on August 10, 2016 at 10:45 a.m. EDT, showing the occluded storm's "apostrophe" shape.
A strong storm in Canada Wednesday was easily the most interesting feature in satellite imagery, grabbing the attention of meteorologists and weather geeks alike.
This extratropical storm intensified Tuesday over Hudson Bay, eventually reaching peak strength Wednesday, before weakening Thursday.
A visible satellite image showed the storm's classic mature phase as a cold occlusion, with relatively cool air completely wrapped around the low center, and a trailing band of clouds ahead of the cold front, resembling an apostrophe or the number 9.
Here is what the frontal structure of this storm looked like Wednesday, courtesy of NOAA's Weather Prediction Center.
Surface frontal analysis, with the Hudson Bay, Canada, storm highlighted, on August 10, 2016, at 2 a.m. EDT.
The storm's central pressure dipped to a low of 980 millibars early on August 10. This wasn't a case of "bombogenesis" because the storm's pressure dropped only about 23 millibars in 36 hours.
You wouldn't expect that kind of storm in the Northern Hemisphere in August anyway, as north-to-south temperature contrasts fueling the development of extratropical storms are at a minimum in the heart of summer.
Now, let's zoom in on this beauty, starting with a visible satellite loop from Wednesday, Aug. 10.
Visible satellite loop of the Hudson Bay, Canada, storm on August 10, 2016.
With deep, relatively cool air wrapped completely around the low, you wouldn't expect deep thunderstorms in that circulation.
Therefore, the infrared satellite image shows some interesting structure in the core of the storm, but may not strike you as spectacular as, say, hurricanes or summer's thunderstorm clusters, mesoscale convective systems.

However, looking at satellite imagery used to show water vapor content, this storm really leaps off the page, as pointed out by the satellite gurus at the University of Wisconsin's Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies.
By zooming out and taking off the political borders, the storm, coupled with a dark slot of drier air to its south, resembles the side view of a face.

In water vapor images, an occluded storm like this often resembles a cinnamon roll, with drier air (darker shading) ingested in circular plumes surrounding the more moist air (whiter shading).
This storm's wind field was quite impressive, as shown by the European model analysis from Wednesday morning.
ECMWF model surface wind streamline analysis of the Hudson Bay, Canada, storm on August 10, 2016. The strongest surface winds are indicated by darker purple streamlines. The low-pressure center is indicated by the hole in the wind field over Hudson Bay.
Typically, these storms are more common in and near the Lower 48 states from fall through spring, producing snowstorms, high wind events, coastal flooding, even occasionally spawning severe weather outbreaks.
Even by Canadian standards, this was a fairly impressive storm for mid-August.
California orders 82,000 people to evacuate over Bluecut Fire that's burned over 15,000 acres
Officials ordered evacuations Tuesday as fire rapidly engulfed the area called the Cajon Pass
The so-called Bluecut Fire erupted in heavy brush just west of Interstate 15, the main freeway between Las Vegas and the Los Angeles area
The inferno prompted orders for residents of the community of Wrightwood, about 75 miles east of Los Angeles, to leave their homes
This is the latest in a series of wildfires that have blackened nearly 300,000 acres of the U.S. West
Authorities in southern California ordered the evacuation of 82,000 people on Tuesday, after a wildfire broke out in a mountain pass and rapidly engulfed 15,000 acres of terrain.
Officials said about 700 firefighters were battling to control the blaze in an area called the Cajon Pass, the latest in a series of wildfires that have blackened nearly 300,000 acres of the drought-parched U.S. West.
'It is a very fast-moving fire, it has wind behind it,' said U.S. Forest Service spokeswoman Lyn Sieliet.
Two firefighters were trapped by flames in the effort to evacuate residents and defend homes, but managed to escape with only minor injuries, fire officials said.
Vehicles and structures burn near Highway 138 as the fire rages through San Bernardino County
The so-called Bluecut Fire erupted in heavy brush just west of Interstate 15, the main freeway between Las Vegas and the Los Angeles area, forcing the closure of one stretch of the highway.
The inferno prompted orders for residents of the community of Wrightwood, about 75 miles east of Los Angeles, to leave their homes, said Lynne Tolmachoff, of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire).
In all, about 82,000 people were ordered to flee, as flames destroyed an unknown number of houses, the Cal Fire spokeswoman said by telephone.
The fire remained unchecked, having exploded within hours to cover an area of 15,000 acres, Cal Fire said, up from an estimate of 9,000 acres on Tuesday evening.
The Bluecut Fire, whose cause officials said they were still investigating, came as crews more than 600 miles to the northwest began to make headway against a Northern California wildfire that has destroyed more than 175 homes and businesses.
The so-called Clayton Fire was 35 per cent contained, according to Cal Fire. It has charred 4,000 acres in and around the community of Lower Lake, forcing hundreds of people to flee.
Damin Pashilk, a 40-year-old arrested on suspicion of setting that blaze, and several others in the area over the past year, is set to appear in court on Wednesday.
Fierce winds fanned the fire, which threatened about 1,500 structures at its peak, after it sparked on Saturday evening.
As of Tuesday evening, only 380 buildings were in danger, according to Cal Fire. There were no reports of casualties.
California Governor Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency in San Bernardino County for the Bluecut Fire, which allows state agencies to come to the assistance of local officials.
On Monday, Brown issued emergency declarations for the Clayton fire and another in Central California, the so-called Chimney fire.
The Chimney Fire was 20 per cent contained by Tuesday evening, after scorching 6,900 acres since Saturday. It has destroyed about 40 structures.
