Barely important to many people reading this! But here in Ecuador, the rainy season has kicked in two months early.

It always used to turn on as regularly as clockwork, in the second week of January. It's 6 months wet, 6 months dry here: two seasons, as in many equatorial countries. But this year, it started raining in early November, and there's no end in sight. That's really quite a big deal, and it's a MAJOR change in the weather pattern.

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.

I really enjoyed her presentation of her model and the authenticity of her research. I got no indication from her that she was trying to promote or follow any political ideology, but rather was sincere in trying to create a model that fits current data. The correlation of her model with available data is impressive.

I also found the ensuing question and answer section from her presentation interesting and insightful. This is the video link provided by Bill to which I refer.

I have no reason to dispute the overall gist of her model and that our planet appears to be entering a (Grand) Solar Minimum. I am also aware that all such models are only as useful as the limitations the model imposes on itself in terms of the factors and data used in creating such a model. There is a strong correlation between the data generated by her model and recorded data to date. However, like all models, it isn't precise and there are variations (albeit slight in the over all scheme of things) between what the model says should have happened and what actually happened. Therefore my own conclusion is that while the overall trend is correct, I am not certain of the magnitude of the effects Earth will experience during this Solar Minimum. In other words it may be worse than what is predicted or it may be more tempered than what is predicted.

However is it certainly clear that the message given out by IPCC 'climate experts' these days is way off and appears to be more political than scientifically based.

Aftermath of a landslide in Limon Indanza Canton, Morona Santiago Province, Ecuador, November 2018.

Heavy rain and landslides in Morona Santiago Province, Ecuador, have left at least 9 people dead and 8 injured. Authorities say 6 homes were destroyed.

The landslides struck in Limon Indanza Canton on 24 November, 2018. Further heavy rain has fallen since.

Around 150 people have been evacuated to temporary shelters by Ecuador's National Risk and Emergency Management Service (SNGRE).

Heavy rain has been reported elsewhere in the country. Ecuador's Instituto Nacional de Meteorología e Hidrología (Inamhi) said that Quito has recorded 238.4 mm of rain so far this month, making November 2018 one of the wettest in recent years.

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.

Martin Armstrong, who is himself a master of computerized modeling of cycles, has posted a summary of Professor Valentina Zharkova's presentation, and integrated it with his work on financial cycles. Armstrong's article is at: Solar Magnetic Field Oscillations Confirm Global Cooling is Upon Us.

Armstrong finds that Zharkova's work is consistent, from a quite different perspective, with his work on financial cycles.

Here's what Armstrong writes:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Solar Magnetic Field Oscillations Confirm Global Cooling is Upon Us

Posted Nov 30, 2018 by Martin Armstrong

Link to Zharkova's presentation on Youtube

Professor Valentina Zharkova gave a presentation of her Climate and the Solar Magnetic Field hypothesis at the Global Warming Policy Foundation in October 2018. At the core of her work on the solar background magnetic field observed from the Earth, she revealed four pairs of dynamo waves, the pair with the highest eigenvalues are called principal components (PCs). These PCs are produced by magnetic dipoles in inner and outer layers of the Sun. The second pair of waves is assumed produced by quadruple magnetic sources for example. These PC waves are closely related to the average sunspot number index.

Now, based upon this correlation, the summary curve was used for the prediction of long-term solar activity on a millennial timescale. She was able to determine the existence of a 350-400 year cycle, with a remarkable resemblance to the sunspot and terrestrial activity features reported in the past millennia – Maunder (grand) Minimum (1645-1715), Wolf (grand) minimum (1200), Oort (grand) minimum (1010-1050), Homer (grand) minimum (800-900 BC); the medieval (900-1200) warm period, Roman (400-10BC) and other warm periods.

She has reconfirmed from another perspective what the ice core samples revealed that match the Economic Confidence Model which I discovered from the economic analysis. Consequently, we have yet another confirmation with this approach that also predicts the modern grand minimum upcoming in 2020-2055 which will straddle the 2032 ECM major high. Therefore, the two principal components of solar magnetic field oscillations and their summary curve allows us to extrapolate the solar activity backward one hundred millennia. The period going into the peak of this Sixth Wave on the ECM projects a period of 2000-2100 years which we can call a super-grand minimum cycle that reflects variations of magnetic field magnitude.

The last Little Ice Age bottomed around 1600AD. The Sixth Wave of the ECM began from this period and as the climate grew warmer, the world economy once again expanded.

I hate to tell everyone but Global Warming is GOOD, and Global Cooling is BAD!

We really need to prepare for what is to come.

Astrophysicist – Mini Ice Age is now accelerating – Important video

by Robert
December 2, 2018

Contrary to what the politicians are trying to foist on you, a new mini ice age – a new Maunder Minimum – has already started.

Astrophysicist Piers Corbyn

“We are plunging now into a deep mini ice age,” says astrophysicist Piers Corbyn.

“And there is no way out.”

For the next 20 years it’s going to get colder and colder on average, says Corbyn.

The jet stream will be wilder.

There will be more wild temperature changes, more hail events, more earthquakes, more extreme volcano events, more snow in winters, lousy summers, late springs, short autumns, and more and more crop failures.

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=zDBbfDbaiA4

“Carbon dioxide levels do not have any impact – I repeat, any impact – on climate,” says Piers.

“The CO2 theory is wrong from the start.”

“The fact is the sun rules the sea temperature, and the sea temperature rules the climate.”

“The basic message is that the sun is controlling the climate, primarily via the sea.”

The new mini ice age began around 2013

“What we have happening – NOW! – is the start of the mini ice age…it began around 2013. It’s a slow start, and now the rate of moving into the mini ice age is accelerating.”

“The best thing to do now is to tell your politicians to stop believing nonsense, and to stop doing silly measures like the bird-killing machines of wind farms in order to save the planet (they say), but get rid of all those things, which cost money, and reduce electricity prices now.

“Evidence shows that man-made climate change does not exist and the arguments for it are not based on science but on data fraud and a conspiracy theory of nature,” says Piers on his website.

“The world is now cooling not warming and there is no observational evidence in the thousands and millions of years of data that changes in CO2 have any observable effect on weather or climate in the real world.”

Indonesia tsunami kills hundreds after Krakatau eruption

Image copyright EPA Image caption: Officials say Anak Krakatau could have caused underwater landslides

More than 220 people have been killed and 843 injured after a tsunami hit coastal towns on Indonesia's Sunda Strait, government officials say.

The tsunami waves struck at night without any warning, destroying hundreds of buildings.

Officials say the tsunami could have been caused by undersea landslides after Anak Krakatau volcano erupted.

The Sunda Strait, between the islands of Java and Sumatra, connects the Java Sea to the Indian Ocean.

What is the latest?
The disaster management agency has warned people to stay away from the coastline due to fears of another tsunami.

Saturday's tsunami struck at about 21:30 local time (14:30GMT), during a local holiday.

It hit several popular tourist destinations including the Tanjung Lesung beach resort in the west of Java island.

Footage shared on social media showed a large wave crashing into a tent in the resort, in which a popular Indonesian rock band, Seventeen, was performing. Members of the band were seen being swept away as the wave destroyed the stage.

In a tearful Instagram video, singer Riefian Fajarsyah, said the band's bassist and road manager had died, and that three other band members and his own wife were missing.

A crew member, Zack, said on Instagram that he survived by grabbing onto part of the stage, and "in the final seconds [underwater] I almost ran out of breath", Reuters reported.

Image copyright Social media Image caption Band Seventeen were performing on stage when the tsunami hit

Red Cross official Kathy Mueller told the BBC: "There is debris littering the ground, crushed cars, crushed motorcycles, we're seeing buildings that are collapsed."

It appears that the main road into Pandeglang has been badly damaged, making it difficult for rescuers to reach the area, she added.

Eyewitness Asep Perangkat said "cars were dragged about 10 metres, and so were containers."

"Buildings on the edge of [Carita] beach were destroyed, trees and electricity poles fell to the ground," he told AFP news agency.

Officials say more than 160 people were killed in Pandeglang - a popular tourist district on Java known for its beaches and national park.

Meanwhile, 48 were reported dead in South Lampung on Sumatra, and deaths were also reported in Serang district and Tanggamus on Sumatra. Officials fear the death toll could rise further.

So far, no foreign nationals have been reported dead, officials say.


'There were two waves'
Oystein Lund Andersen, Norwegian volcano photographer, Anyer Beach in West Java
I was on the beach. I was alone, my family were sleeping in a room.

I was trying to photograph the erupting Krakatau volcano.

Earlier in the evening, there was quite heavy eruption activity. But just prior to the waves hitting the beach, there was no activity at all. It was just dark out there.

And suddenly I saw this wave coming, and I had to run.

There were two waves. The first wave wasn't that strong - I could run from it.

Image copyright Oystein Lund Andersen Image caption Flooded streets in Anyer after the tsunami

I ran straight to the hotel, where my wife and my son were sleeping.

And I woke them up... and I heard a bigger wave coming. I looked out of the window when the second wave hit. It was much bigger.

The wave passed the hotel. Cars were pushed off the road.

We and other people at the hotel went straight to the forest (on higher ground) next to the hotel. And we're still up on the hill now.

- Oystein Lund Andersen was speaking to BBC World News television

What might have caused the tsunami?
Emergency officials are investigating whether the tsunami was caused by Anak Krakatau, a volcanic island in the Sunda Strait.

Volcanologist Jess Phoenix told the BBC that when volcanoes erupt, hot magma pushes underground and can displace and break through colder rock. This can trigger a landslide.

But because part of the volcano is underwater, she said "instead of just causing a landslide, you get an undersea landslide which pushes water as it moves." This can then cause a tsunami.

The Anak Krakatau volcano has seen increased activity in recent months.

Indonesia's geologic agency said that the volcano erupted for two minutes and 12 seconds on Friday, creating an ash cloud that rose 400 metres (1,300ft) above the mountain.

It recommended that no-one be allowed within two kilometres of the crater.

Image copyright Gallo Images/Orbital Horizon/Copernicus Sentin Image caption A satellite image of Anak Krakatau erupting in August

The disaster management agency said that high seas as a result of the full moon may also have contributed to the strength of the waves.

Were people warned?
A spokesman at Indonesia's disaster agency, Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, initially said the wave was not a tsunami, but a tidal surge, and told the public not to panic.

He later apologised for the mistake, saying there had been confusion because there was no earthquake.

Meanwhile, earlier on Sunday, a tsunami warning went off by mistake, causing widespread panic.

"A tsunami siren in Labuhan Bay in Pandeglang regency started ringing all of a sudden, without any activation from the authorities," Mr Nugroho said.

"There was possibly a technical error that made the sirens ring. Lots of people ran to save themselves... tsunami shelters are now packed."


How common are tsunamis in Indonesia?
Image copyright Reuters Image caption Some residents in the Pandeglang region ran to a local mosque after the tsunami hit Indonesia is prone to tsunamis because it lies on the Ring of Fire - the line of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that circles virtually the entire Pacific rim.

In September, more than 2,000 people died when a powerful earthquake struck just off the central Indonesian island of Sulawesi, setting off a tsunami that engulfed the coastal city of Palu.

On 26 December 2004, a series of huge waves triggered by a powerful earthquake in the Indian Ocean killed about 228,000 people in 13 countries, mostly in Indonesia.

However, tsunamis caused by volcanic activity like this are less frequent.


Krakatoa (Krakatau in Indonesian)
Image copyright Oystein Lund Andersen Anak Krakatau (Child of Krakatau) is a new island that emerged in 1927 from Krakatoa volcano.

In August 1883, Krakatoa underwent one of the most violent volcanic eruptions in recorded history:

• Massive tsunamis with waves up to 135ft (41m) killed more than 30,000 people

• Thousands more were killed by hot ash

• The eruptions were equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT - about 13,000 times the nuclear yield of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945

• The eruptions were heard thousands of kilometres away

• World temperatures dropped by more than 1C the following year

• The volcanic island virtually disappeared

The Stunning Aftermath Of The "Child Of Krakatoa" Tsunami

by Tyler Durden
Mon, 12/24/2018 - 06:58

A tsunami believed to have been triggered by the collapse of a volcano called the "Child of Krakatoa" slammed into coastal areas on the islands of Java and Sumatra late Saturday, becoming the second deadly wave to hammer the island nation this year.

At least 281 people have died and more than 1,000 people are still missing; international charities and the Indonesia government say they're pouring resources into a recovery operation.

While communications are still down across much of the affected area, images and video footage of the damage has already made its way to social media.

Here's drone footage of the area around the Sunda Strait (where the wave originated), courtesy of the Guardian.

Tsunami-Triggering Indonesian Volcano Loses 3/4 of Its Size in Latest Eruption

The eruption caused massive tsunami waves at least 2 metres high taking the islands of Sumatra and Java by surprise, killing over 400 people and leaving around 40,000 homeless.

The volcano Anak Krakatau, which caused a massive tsunami that struck several Indonesian islands, has lost ¾ of its volume and reduced in height from 338 metres to 110 metres as a result of the latest eruption, Indonesia's Centre for Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation said. The latest assessment has led volcano experts believe that a new powerful tsunami is unlikely since the volcano has lost its mass and power.

The Centre managed to get a picture of the volcano's transformation using satellite radar images because visual assessment is not possible at the moment due to continuing eruptions maintaining a cloud cover made of smoke and ash.

This is the second time Anak Krakatau has been massively destroyed by its own eruption. The original volcano (known as Krakatau) was destroyed in a powerful eruption in 1883, which had the power of explosion around 200 megatons, which is 10,000 times bigger than the one that hit Hiroshima in the Second World War.

The eruption completely destroyed Krakatau, leaving only three small islands in its place, and caused 20-metre-high tsunami waves that claimed around 32,000 lives. The ash from the eruptions reached the upper layers of the atmosphere and persisted there for several years.

The volcano re-emerged in 1927 and has since been known as Anak Krakatau (child of Krakatau) and was initially only 67 metres high, rising eventually to over 300 metres, but never reaching the 2-kilometre height of its "father".
