Weird, wild weather: floods, freak storms, giant hail, record lows, all over the world

Extraordinary low temps tonite in Colorado.

I was wondering what is that strange cold feeling that seems to be penetrating 6 inches with an R22 on the walls and R50 on the ceiling. Each floor is insulated with 12 inches of high efficiency fiberglass batt with a 3/4 inch cellulose fiber tile. The house is pretty air tight with 3 pane argon gas filled windows.. Doors are double insulated with storm doors, foam filled inside door.. So....

The feeling of the cold wave seems to be penetrating.. It is an odd sensation, sorta like walking up infront of a -40 degree walk in freezer, (but not walking inside).. A feeling of cold, very cold..

Well i took my optical thermometer and started snooping around outside.. This is something that one doesn't want to just take a deep breath in..

On the snow about 15 feet infront of the house, I measured -26 degrees F.. or -32 C.

That is really un-heard of, it was about 29 PLUS F today.. This evening tho, something odd came in...

Pointing at my car above the ground it is -11 F currently..

Different spots on the ground are showing -26F, -11F, 0F, -15F... The temperature of my outside storm door glass is -11F.. If I point the optical thermometer 4 feet up, it goes to +5F...

Unbelievable.. I have no clue what in the world is happening here.. It is very odd...

I am using my airtight stove to heat and it is having a very hard time keeping up tonite.. Normally it would be quite hot in the great room, but it is about 15 degrees lower than normal operating temp..

Sounds really unpleasant and a bit bizarre, to say the least. Stay safe and warm, Bob.

An update on the phenomena - Today is back to normal late Fall weather.. Very odd temp wise last nite before midnite.. An hour after midnite, the temperatures started warming back up (just in the low plus 20's F).. Looking at the spots on the ground with the optical thermometer, the super cold spots were starting to warm back up to the surrounding temperature..

I saw this once in the San Luis Valley, Colorado just South of the Great Sand dunes, (right up against the hills, there is a road that leads into the park area from the South).. there was an ice fog about 10pm, zero visibility all the sudden, and right in the middle of the road about 100 feet into the fog were a herd of ELK, probably just under 50 head... All were just standing there, not moving, virtually "frozen in time"... I almost hit them with my car, and they didn't move one bit.. They were breathing, the steam coming out from the breath.

I wove my way past them, almost pushing them out of the way.. But they remained virtually motionless..

At this point getting out of the fog, my car engine started to act up. I tried to keep the speed about 50, but it kept dropping, down to about 15 miles per hour tops... On reaching the main highway, outside of the park, at least 10 miles away from the Great Sand dunes (I was headed north now), I couldn't keep the engine running.. I went outside to raise the hood to see if the air filter was iced (it wasn't)... And I took a deep breath, a sigh.. Instantly my heart stopped.. Managing to get back into the car, thinking about writing a good bye... things started back up.. My heart, the car's engine was able to start.. Sitting there for a half hour (it was now about 1:30 am in the morning...), I slowly pulled back onto the main road.. No highbeam headlights (i had them on when all this was happening)... But had at least 1 headlight LOW beam working... (I thought gees fuses, and I didn't have any)..

Slowly the speed got back up to normal driving speeds, and I stopped at a 7-11 in the first large town.. 2 blown headlights, the filaments were "Crystallized"... I put in a full tank of premium gas and just in case a bottle of fuel treatment... Having a hot cup of coffee, with a doughnut was still chilled to the bone.. I drove north till I got home with no further incident..

Strange experience, it reminded me of the very odd out-of-place temperature extremes, which seemed to be very localized.. just as in the areas around my house last night... ultra-frozen cold spots.. At -26F below, where it was +29 during the day, the oddity was very strange..

No normal air-flow would do that, create such small localized spots as seen up here. Down at the Great Sand dunes, the "spots" were about a mile across.. Ultra-cold zones I suppose almost as if something opened up the locations to space itself.. That question is what stuck in my mind, what did I experience not just once, but now twice in locations hundreds of miles apart..

Folks, this might be very, very important. (Hervé, I'd appreciate your take. )

My own summary: Valentina Zharkova, a Ukrainian PhD astrophysicist who's been keeping quiet because she "didn't want to be persecuted like Galileo", has recently presented strong evidence that

1. We're already in the Grand Solar Minimum.
2. That the effects will be devastating.
3. That it'll be worse than even feared so far by good researchers.

Grand Solar Minimum CONFIRMED - Professor Valentina Zharkova Breaks Her Silence

This screenshot summary might be a conservative understatement.



First, an informed 20 minute discussion. Then the entire presentation. It's detailed, but for those with the necessary background, is well worth working through.

Piers Corbyn is on good form as usual. She gives great explanations on the theories. Most informative.

Ice age it is:

=========================================================

This point from above cannot be overemphasized:

... the waves fluctuate between the northern and southern hemispheres of the Sun. Combining both waves together and comparing to real data for the current solar cycle, we found that our predictions showed an accuracy of 97%,” said Zharkova.

That's real science!

Because their theoretical model, derived from facts, can predict other data - not yet observed - with a 97% accuracy... mind blowing!

All that because the theoritical modelling takes the sun as a stable magneto-electric oscillator with interfering magnetic waves which resonate and generate standing "beat" waves on a regular basis... with some other interferences from planets [and a probable binary twin] tugging at the sun and getting its center to orbit around the system's barycenter (Milankovitch, etc., cycles).

So... Science has finally caught up to Project Avalon?

The full (uncensored!) presentation:

I was only able to listen to a couple of minutes of the shorter 20 minute discussion, as it seemed to me to be more of a sensationalized simplification.

But the longer presentation is done by someone who actually works with and understands the mathematical modeling being done. That was the best presentation I've seen of this material. Professor Zharkova has the tools to handle integrating several cycles, and several diverse mechanisms and periodicities, including solar sun spots and magnetic cycles, and planetary motions and their effect on the distance between the earth and sun during summer and winter seasons, in northern and southern hemispheres.

Over the next several years, I expect to be taking what opportunities present themselves to me, to handle colder weather and food shortages, especially in the period of 2028 to 2032.

I doubt that Professor Zharkova understands the inter-stellar, galactic, electro-magnetic mechanisms that I would guess are key drivers of the magnetic cycles that she is modeling, but I suspect that even so she has obtained enough measurements to tune and validate her models of solar magnetic radiance sufficiently to make useful forecasts for a long way out.

[ThePythonicCow]

The upcoming cold period (that we may already be experiencing the leading edge of, this winter, for example with the record cold spell over eastern United States, as I write) is predicted by Professor Zharkova to be about as cold as the Maunder Minimum, which endured from approximately 1645 until 1720.

However this upcoming cold cycle is predicted by her to be half as long.

Whereas very few adults at the beginning of the Maunder Minimum were still alive at its end, I expect that many younger adults alive now will see the end of this coming cold period and get to enjoy a few warmer years in the later part of their lives. Old farts like me will likely be buried in colder ground, but our children may look forward to a warmer future.

And in related news: Thanksgiving Could Be Among the Coldest on Record in Parts of the Northeast [U.S.]

Another blast of cold air is expected to bring one of the coldest Thanksgivings on record for some Northeast cities.

A strong area of high pressure from the Arctic Circle will descend southward across Canada and into the Northeast, sending temperatures plummeting toward levels more common on New Year’s Day, not Thanksgiving Day.

For some Northeast cities, high temperatures on Thanksgiving could be close to the coldest on record no matter what day of the month the holiday was celebrated (e.g. Nov. 22, Nov. 24, Nov. 26, etc.).

The official U.S. Thanksgiving Day has been the last Thursday of November from 1863 to 1938; the next-to-last Thursday from 1939 to 1941; and the fourth Thursday from 1942 to present.

New York City has only had three Thanksgivings dating to 1870 when the high temperature failed to rise out of the 20s, according to National Weather Service statistics. The coldest was a high of 26 degrees on Nov. 28, 1901.

Forecast highs Thursday could be near that all-time record coldest high set almost 117 years ago.

This northeast coast dweller shoveled 7-8 inches (19 cm) of snow a couple of days ago. Thanksgiving eve and Thanksgiving evening it’ll be in the single digits (8 F/ -13C) rather than in the 40’s (44F/4 C).

Interesting, but two observations:

Many of those events are things that always happen, but now vast numbers of people have cameras so they can be captured. This gives the impression of increased frequency, when that may not be the case.

Ask any meteorologist about 'unprecedented events'. They happen somewhere every year and have done since we started recording the weather. What I'd like to see is some detailed statistical analysis from experts in the field of 'unprecedented events' (and how exactly is that judgement made?) to determine if and by how much they are increasing - preferably without the distracting doom music!

I find this guy's voice and delivery style to be irritating, but he is consistent and dedicated to reporting detailed, regular updates on weather "anomalies" and much more along the lines of conspiracy theory re planetary conditions on his channel,
Oppenheimer Ranch Project. This is his offering for today:

Cliff High stepped in a few weeks ago to talk about the reason why he thinks Ancient Chinese history could be of interest to us all now at this time. We are entering our own Grand Solar Minimum as they were and at the same time they were transitioning from Dowism to Confucianism and Buddhism - all while being bombarded with the increased radiation from space. Perhaps there is something we can learn from China at that time.

clif high Ancient Chinese History and why should i give a ****?
