SOTT Earth Changes Summary - October 2017 : Extreme Weather, Planetary Upheaval, Meteor Fireballs


Sott.net
Fri, 10 Nov 2017 14:22 UTC

This October saw the continuing trend of deadly and record-breaking wildfires, massive rainfall, freak hailstorms and flooding and sudden powerful down-bursts wreak havoc across the planet.

Early October snow also surprised people from the US to China, while many others spotted meteor/fireballs streak across the sky, with one of the space rocks possibly starting a wildfire! The chaos came pretty close to home for one or two people who had seriously close encounters with lightning!

this is a really interesting video, there is a major correlation between cosmic dust influx (way in excess of what vulcanos could produce) and the low points in temperature during ice ages. also he suggests that the planets orbits could be periodically subject to change in line with the dust influx

SOTT Earth Changes Video Summary - November 2017: Extreme Weather & Meteor Fireballs

This past November broke many records, from fireballs to floods to unseasonable snow in both hemispheres of our planet.

After an unusually strong X class solar flare and unusual solar activity back in September, possibly related to a series of powerful earthquakes above 7.0 mg in New Caledonia and Mexico; this month was marked by three earthquakes in Iraq/Iran, Chile and South Korea, that caused widespread damage. Meanwhile the volcanic activity seems to have reached a seasonal peak (yes, soon we'll have to start talking about 'Volcano season'!.

These increased geological phenomena, and the official predictions of earthquake activity increase in 2018 due to the slow down of earth's rotation, have left affected people with a feeling of dread.

Droughts also hit Portugal and Spain last month, while sheets of water fell in South America, Australia and in most parts of Asia. All this at a time when meteorologists are finding themselves having to use the term 'atmospheric phenomena' because rainfall just doesn't cut it anymore.

Trumpet sounds and portents in the sky were seen as harbingers of interesting times in the past, from the social and political arena, to significant cosmic events. So fasten your seat belt folks, because it seems that things are going to get rough.

Thu, 04 Jan 2018 10:59 UTC

The first windstorm of the new year has caused damage and major travel disruption across western Europe.

Locations from the British Isles into France, Netherlands and Germany all endured powerful winds, rain and coastal flooding.


United Kingdom and Ireland
In the United Kingdom and Ireland, the storm was dubbed Storm Eleanor.

A peak wind gust of 100 mph (161 km/h) was reported at Great Dun Fell in Northern England with widespread wind gusts over 60 mph (97 km/h) throughout Northern Ireland, Wales and England and Ireland.

Multiple rescues were reported across the U.K. due to trees falling on cars, according to The Guardian.

Coastal flooding was reported across Cornwall as the high surf poured over sea walls and damaged the harbour wall in Portreath.

More than 20,000 homes were without power in the U.K. with most located across Northern Ireland. Another 55,000 homes were without power across Ireland.

Travel impacts have been wide ranging with numerous road closures due to fallen trees. Several high traffic bridges were closed during the worst of the storm, which resulted in further travel delays.

Rail traffic also endured significant disruption due to flooding and downed trees. A pair of trampolines blew on tracks causing further delays, according to Network Rail.

France
The powerful windstorm, also called Eleanor, caused significant damaged through France on Wednesday with northern areas hit the hardest.

At least 15 people have been injured, four seriously, by Eleanor according to Europe1.

One fatality has been reported at a ski area in southeast France due to a falling tree, according to BFMTV.

Around 200,000 homes were without power during the height of the storm across 49 departments, according to the Associated Press. About 30,000 of the outages were reported in the Paris area.

The storm also uprooted trees which damaged cars and homes and caused scaffolding to collapse in Paris.

While the most widespread damage and travel disruption was reported across northern France, the strongest gust was recorded in the Alps with a peak gust of 91 mph (146 km/h) on Mont Aigoual. Dieppe, along France's northern coastline, reported a peak wind gust of 85 mph (137 km/h).

Paris was battered by the strongest winds so far this winter as a gust of 73 mph (117 km/h) was reported in the city.


Netherlands
The storm also battered the Netherlands causing widespread travel disruption and damage.

There have been reports of downed trees damaging homes and automobiles while also snarling travel by road and rail across all Dutch provinces, according to NLTimes.

A peak wind gust of 87 mph (140 km/h) was reported in Vlissingen.

Amsterdam and Rotterdam both reported a peak wind gust of 58 mph (93 km/h).

Schiphzl airport was forced to cancel 176 flights on Wednesday due to the storm.


Germany
Damaging winds were also reported across Germany where the storm has been named Storm Burglind.

Orsbach, in far western Germany, reported the highest wind gust as winds reached 76 mph (122 km/h).

Powerful winds also blasted Stuttgart and Cologne. Wind gusts of 67 and 68 mph (108 and 109 km/h) were reported Wednesday.

The powerful winds have uprooted trees, causing road closures in western Germany, according to The Local.

A 70-meter high wind turbine was toppled by the strong winds in Volksdorf, according to Schaumburger Nachrichten.

The strong winds have also triggered delays and cancellations of rail traffic across western Germany.

The storm also brought damaging winds and travel disruption to Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland.

Sahara Desert covered in 15 inches of snow in a freak winter weather storm

Heavy snow has covered the Sahara Desert in a freak winter weather storm.

More than 15 inches (40cm) has blanketed sand dunes across the small town of Ain Sefra, Algeria.

It is the second time snow has hit in nearly 40 years, with a dusting also recorded in December 2016.

But this snowfall which hit yesterday, is much deeper than the fleeting shower little more than a year ago.

Locals, who endure temperatures of 37C in summer, were stunned as dense snow settled on the town, known as 'the gateway to the desert'.

Before that, snow was last seen in Ain Sefra on February 18, 1979, when the snow storm lasted just half an hour.

The cold snap comes as Europe and the United States froze in bitter temperatures.

Winter Storm Grayson, battering the US east coast, has seen the sea freeze in Cape Cod, along with the Niagra Falls in stunning scenes.

A spokesman for the Met Office said this morning: "Cold air was pulled down south in to North Africa over the weekend as a result of high pressure over Europe.

"The high pressure meant the cold weather extended further south than normal." Ain Sefra is about 1,000 metres above sea level and surrounded by the Atlas Mountains.

Its average temperature for January is 6C, with average lows at -0.3C.

The Sahara Desert covers most of Northern Africa and it has gone through shifts in temperature and moisture over the past few hundred thousand years.

Although the Sahara is very dry today, it is expected to become green again in about 15,000 years.

U.S. withdrew record amount of natural gas from storage

by Robert January 12, 2018

During the recent “cold snap” that affected much of the eastern United States, more natural gas was withdrawn from storage fields than at any other point in history. (Yes, the U.S. Energy Information Administration called our latest bout of record cold in at least 7 states a “cold snap.”)

Net withdrawals totaled 359 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the week ending January 5, 2018, exceeding the previous record of 288 Bcf set four years ago by 25%.

Near the end of December 2017 and continuing into January, temperatures in the Lower 48 states, especially in the eastern half of the country, were significantly lower than normal. Similar to January 2014, sustained periods of cold temperatures resulted in high natural gas demand for heating, contributing to increased withdrawals from storage.

Weekly net withdrawals have totaled at least 249 Bcf only 10 times since 1993, most recently in January 2015, and have never exceeded 300 Bcf. Of the 10 largest storage pulls on record, four occurred during the winter of 2013–14, which was significantly colder than normal.

Yesterday, it was 57 F/13 C. Last week there were a string of day where it was 0 to -10 F/-17 to -23 C without the wind chill factored in. My December electric heat bill was higher than January and February of past years. I suspect this next bill will be the highest one in the 23 years I've lived here.

So true, Paula! It got up to 59 here yest. so I was able to go out & check my kerosene tank....already half gone!! Today it will go "up" to 11!! I still can't figure out how much of this weird weather is due to the ....or how much it is due to human manipulations!

"Global warming".

Indeed. Confirmation, once you understand how warmer patches of ocean can influence Arctic air circulation over the North Atlantic, dragging and mixing moist air with cold air. Or do you have another theory?

BTW, did you hear about the record-breaking temperatures in Australia?

Snow blocks 5,000 kilometers of roads in Morocco

Morocco World News

The Moroccan Minister of Transport, Abdelkader Amara, told parliament on Monday that nearly 5,000 kilometers of national, regional, and provincial roads were closed this year due to "exceptional" snowfall.

To address the unprecedented road conditions, the Moroccan Ministry of Equipment, Transport, and Logistics mobilized 117 snow plows. Amara also made a public reminder that, before getting behind the wheel, Moroccans can use the application "MaRoute" to access the most recent information about the state of the roads across the country.

The Minister also acknowledged that geographical distribution of these blockages disproportionately affects rural areas. He highlighted major projects that concern 22,000 rural roads and 262 technical installations, at a cost of about MAD 28 billion. These new facilities are expected to benefit 3.5 million people in rural areas in 73 provinces.

Abdelkader Amara said that his department is committed to connect this network to classified roads, approximately 8,000 kilometers, which will cost about MAD 8 billion and will include 180 installations.

Morocco! Across from the Canary Islands, next to Algeria... snowed in!

There's no place like Tasmania.

It might be summer in Australia, but that doesn't stop snow from falling in Miena in central Tasmania.

As Victorians enjoys cooler temperatures following last week's heatwave, the Great Lake Hotel in Miena filmed this incredible footage of snow hitting the ground earlier this morning.

[video at: https://www.facebook.com/greatlakeho...2986687411085/ ]

Kaylee Hattinger, the owner of the pub, said at 5.45am she saw the first flutters of snow.

That's just days after they saw 32 degree temperatures on Saturday.

"By 6.15am we were in the middle of a blizzard it was amazing," she told Tom Elliott.

"The last time we had a significant snowfall that was out the season it was the 3 December and we probably had eight inches.

"It's still only January!"
