I'm sure the GSM will deal badly with the southern hemisphere just like it is here in the "top half" of the world. but also remember that this is July and so they are in their mid-winter. It is their "January" right now. It may be more extreme than they are used to, but it is an extreme winter, not winter in summer.

I've always read that seasons are generally milder in the southern hemisphere because there is a more moderating water surface to land surface ratio. I wonder if that will still be true during a GSM?

I understand what you're saying about it being their wintertime, but they've been getting winter-cold weather since their springtime*, and it keeps going. That chunk of cold is so sharply defined and so contiguous, it really looks ominous to me.

*ETA: I meant fall, not springtime.

 

[Martinhouse]

Yup, ominous things all over the place. I think the biggest prep effort for me lately has been training myself to expect the unexpected, and to keep that attitude simmering at the back of my mind to guide everything I do.

And, boy, do those maps you mention look like lots of Unexpected could be in store for us!

Magnetic reversals 10 times faster than previously thought - Ice Age Now

Magnetic reversals 10 times faster than previously thought
July 8, 2020 by Robert

Just what I’ve been saying for more than 20 years!
_____________

“Simulations show magnetic field can change 10 times faster than previously thought,” reads the headline from the University of Leeds.

Here are excerpts from the article:

6 July 2020 – A new study by the University of Leeds and University of California at San Diego reveals that changes in the direction of the Earth’s magnetic field may take place 10 times faster than previously thought.

To capture the evolution of the field back through geological time scientists analyze the magnetic fields recorded by sediments, lava flows and human-made artefacts (sic). Accurately tracking the signal from Earth’s core field is extremely challenging and so the rates of field change estimated by these types of analysis are still debated.

Now, Dr. Chris Davies, associate professor at Leeds and Professor Catherine Constable from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, in California have taken a different approach. They combined computer simulations of the field generation process with a recently published reconstruction of time variations in Earth’s magnetic field spanning the last 100,000 years

Their study, published in Nature Communications, shows that changes in the direction of Earth’s magnetic field reached rates that are up to 10 times larger than the fastest currently reported variations of up to one degree per year.

They demonstrate that these rapid changes are associated with local weakening of the magnetic field. This means these changes have generally occurred around times when the field has reversed polarity or during geomagnetic excursions when the dipole axis—corresponding to field lines that emerge from one magnetic pole and converge at the other—moves far from the locations of the North and South geographic poles.

The clearest example of this in their study is a sharp change in the geomagnetic field direction of roughly 2.5 degrees per year 39,000 years ago. This shift was associated with a locally weak field strength, in a confined spatial region just off the west coast of Central America, and followed the global Laschamp excursion—a short reversal of the Earth’s magnetic field roughly 41,000 years ago.

TxGal, actually, I'm not sure. Maybe it doesn't relate. I may have to listen to it again, I had a lot of distractions today with all the building going on just outside my kitchen and living room windows.

Virus and GSM are very related, to me personally, because the virus has greatly affected how I can go shopping and that's vital to my GSM prepping. It affected how I got my rabbits and how I will be able to get and store more feed and it will certainly affect how I can or cannot get more chickens.

I guess I'd have to say that maybe it's only indirectly related. Sorry I didn't think of this when I mentioned it was going to be posted.

The lady in the previous longer IAF podcast listed the three prep things for GSM was growing food, raising chickens and raising rabbits. I don't remember if that interview mentioned anything about any pandemic complications.

SOTT Earth Changes Summary - June 2020: Extreme Weather, Planetary Upheaval, Meteor Fireballs

Sott.net
Tue, 07 Jul 2020 18:04 UTC

Sheets of rain, floods and hail left a path of destruction all over the world, and the northern hemisphere still got snow in June.

The unbelievable amount of precipitation during the past months can be explained with the increasing amount of charged particles in upper layers of the atmosphere.

When meteors and meteorites pass through our lower atmosphere, or when our planet goes trough a comet dust stream, charged particles accumulate between the ionosphere and the surface of the earth causing storms to intensify, clouds to grow and more rain to fall. Wildfires and volcanic eruptions, for example, also contribute to this accumulation of particles.

At the same time, rain can conduct the accumulated electrical charge of the ionosphere to the ground, which increases the occurrence of other electrical phenomena, as tornadoes, hurricanes, and plasma formations.

The accumulation of charged aerosols and increasingly colder temperatures in upper layers of the atmosphere - caused by the current solar minimum - can also be responsible of the increasing amount of hail and unseasonable snow around the world.

Charged particles influence weather much more than has been appreciated.

Heavy rain and raging floods took the life of hundreds and affected millions in south China, and destroyed 1,470 houses and 3 bridges in Gorontalo Province, Indonesia. Heavy floods also hit Assam, India, leaving 16 dead and over 253,000 affected.

While Romania got its second coldest day in June, Montana got more than 1 foot of snow and southeast Wyoming got 6 inches... just at the beginning of summer.

Siberia got a share of extreme weather this month, from tornadoes to floods, and extreme temperature swings.

A 7.5-magnitude earthquake rattled large swaths of southern and central Mexico, killing at least five people. No major damage was reported.

Locusts continued to ravage Africa, India, Brazil, Argentina and the Middle East, with no sign that they'll be gone soon.

THE ZOONOTIC THREAT: Into the Smart Cities With You! The "Biodiversity" Lie & Agenda 2030

10,904 views • Premiered 4 hours ago

Run time is 16:44

The UN seeks to remove humans from 30% of land and inland water, and considers this "even more important than climate change!" A narrative is being crafted with COVID-19 to justify forcibly moving people off the land and farms, into the smart cities, in the name of "habitat" and "biodiversity." It may sound reasonable, but what does it REALLY mean? Total control. Christian breaks it down.

If you want one idea, albeit simplified, about what a smart city could be like, watch that old movie "Logan's Run". There sure wasn't anyone growing their own food in that city!

The Andes – “Experts say it has never snowed that much”
July 8, 2020 by Robert

The Andes continue accumulating snow, up to 4 meters (more than 13 feet).

Unfortunately for skiers, time does not understand pandemics. The Andes are receiving perhaps record-breaking snowfall just when ski centers are closed due to Covid-19. There are few clues as to whether they will finally be able to open. (I say ‘perhaps record-breaking’ because my translator said it was ‘anthological’ snowfall. I’m not sure what that means.)

Nonetheless, Cerro Catedral Alta Patagonia has detected groups of people who skipped the ban and went skiing anyway.

Some ski areas, such as Corralco in Chile, have already registered thicknesses of up to 3.8 meters, an enviable amount at the beginning of the snow season and which have not been seen for years.

Snowfall has also left 1.5 meters (5 ft) in Mendoza (Las Leñas, Argentina). With just 15 days after the start of winter, experts say it has never snowed that much in just 10 days. “The abnormal thing is that it has not snowed like this in years, so now it seems strange to us,” confirmed the Climatology Department of the Argentine National Weather Service.

Glacier National Park's "Going-to-the-Sun Road" on for its Latest Opening on Record due Exceptional Snow and Persistent Cold - Electroverse

There is far more to behold than the obfuscating BS spewing from your TV. Top of the list: the ongoing Solar Shutdown ushering in the next GSM.

electroverse.net

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK’S “GOING-TO-THE-SUN ROAD” ON FOR ITS LATEST OPENING ON RECORD DUE EXCEPTIONAL SNOW AND PERSISTENT COLD
JULY 9, 2020 CAP ALLON

Snow clearing crews are still battling through Glacier National Park’s Going-to-the-Sun Road even as the calendar reads the second week of July.

As of today, July 9, Montana’s infamous mountain pass remains closed.

Two factors are responsible: 1) last winter’s above-average snowfall, and 2) persistent cold and terrible wintry conditions throughout the spring/summer of 2020.

As pointed out by iceagenow.com, this year will likely break the current record for the road’s latest opening, which stands as July 13 in 2011.

Since records began (linked here), Going-to-the-Sun has experienced only five openings in the month of July: these were July 1, 2007 and July 2, 2008 (solar minimum of cycle 23), July 10, 1943 (solar min of cycle 17) , July 13, 2011 (the very start of the space-age-record-weak solar cycle 24), and July 15, 1933 (solar min of cycle 16). That last one, however -July 15, 1933- was the date of the road’s official opening and so wasn’t necessarily due to a large snowpack.


Solar Cycles (combined).

Serving as evidence of how the so-called climate experts can get it spectacularly wrong, let’s recall the predictions made by Montana’s National Park Service (NPS) back in the early 2000s.

For almost two decades the NPS warned the world that glaciers at Glacier National Park would be gone by the year 2020.

They even went to the trouble of erecting signs across all of its visitor centers prophesying the 2020 doomsday date.

Embarrassingly for these spineless, bandwagon frauds, that deadline of doom is about to uneventfully pass. And in response, the NPS rather sheepishly pulled all ‘2020 signs’ from its displays after the computer models it relied upon from the early 2000s, which convincingly foretold of unending glacial retreat, turned out to be woefully inaccurate.
In fact, the opposite is occurring.

That’s right alarmists, in a supposedly catastrophically warming world Going-to-the-Sun-Road is about to witness its latest opening on record.


80 ft snow drift, Montana — June, 2020

And this trend of falling temperatures and increasing snowpack isn’t confined to Montana. No, it’s occurring across the Northern Hemisphere.

Data from the Finish Meteorological Institute reveals NH total snow mass has held some 500 gigatons above the 1982-2012 average all season:

The extreme-environmentalists and duplicitous-scientists behind Montana’s snow-less predictions should have taken that Going-to-the-Sun Road a long time ago–because it’s the Sun and the Sun alone that changes Earth’s climate.

Every great civilization of the past acknowledged the Sun’s power, and they all worshiped it as a God. The Egyptians called it “Ra”, the Minoans “Ariadne”, and the Romans “Sol”.

Today, we humans consider ourselves the most powerful body in the solar system. Perhaps our recent technological advances and achievements have given rise to a sense of all-conquering self-confidence. But the Sun, as we call it, ended every one of those great civilizations of the past, and it will take down our modern one, too–and not in some raging fiery explosion but by a mere dimming of its energy known as the Grand Solar Minimum.



Don’t fall for the bogus political agendas perpetuated across the MSM.

There is far more to behold than the obfuscating BS spewing from your TV.

The COLD TIMES are returning in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow.

Even NASA agrees, in part at least, with their forecast for this upcoming solar cycle (25) seeing it as “the weakest of the past 200 years,” with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.





Prepare for the COLD — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Sub-Zero Cold and a Record-Breaking 4 Meters (13 Feet) of Snow Hit South America - Electroverse

These are truly astonishing snowfall accumulations, especially given that we're only at the beginning of winter. Grand Solar Minimum.

electroverse.net

SUB-ZERO COLD AND A RECORD-BREAKING 4 METERS (13 FEET) OF SNOW HIT SOUTH AMERICA
JULY 9, 2020 CAP ALLON

I’ve been checking the South America GFS-runs for a few days now, and whenever I return those ‘pinks’ and ‘purples’ (signifying anomalous cold) are getting darker and darker and are extending further and further north.

As originally reported by lugaresdenieve.com on July 8, the Andes are receiving “record accumulations of snow this year.” Frustratingly for the mountain’s skiers, however, the powder can’t be enjoyed as all the slopes are cordoned-off due to the COVID debacle.

A myriad of ski areas, such as Corralco in Chile, have already registered snow totals of 4 meters (13 feet) — astonishing accumulations given that we’re only at the beginning of the snow campaign, and ones not witnessed for decades.
This is the scene currently in El Colorado, Chile:

http://instagr.am/p/CCT5qWinZVQ/ View: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCT5qWinZVQ/?utm_source=ig_embed


The historic conditions have also delivered 1.5 meters (almost 5 feet) of snow to the city of Mendoza, Las Leñas, Argentina.

With winter barely two weeks old, meteorologists at the Argentine National Weather Service have confirmed that this the highest volume of snow ever received in the city this early in the season.

The scene at Mendoza, Argentina:

http://instagr.am/p/CCToXWBFJNp/ View: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCToXWBFJNp/?utm_source=ig_embed


All this persistent, heavy snowfall has put many regions on the highest avalanche alert level, including the Chubut, Mendoza, Neuquén and Río Negro mountain ranges, reports lugaresdenieve.com.

Accompanying the snow has been exceptionally cold temperatures, with the mercury touching a record-busting 23 degrees below zero in southern Argentina’s Río Negro.

Ouch.



South American ski resorts have struggled of late.

The 2020 season would ordinarily have been considered the greatest of recent times, but COVID lockdowns have meant the slopes have remained empty. And while its COVID this time round, past years have been hindered by Zika virus outbreaks and powerful volcanic eruptions.

Note, ‘global warming’ doesn’t make the list, alarmists.

Looking forward, those “pinks” and “purples” look set to stretch the length of South America over the coming weeks, engulfing a large portion of the continent by July 24:

And there’s no let-up to that record Argentinian/Chilean snowfall either:

NASA has shared an image of rare 'red sprite' lightning that looks scarily similar to an alien invasion.

The red lightning can be seen branching out like jellyfish or fireworks over a French mountain range.

The amazing image was captured by photographer Stephane Vetter.

Nasa revealed it as there Astronomy Picture of the Day for July 4.

Nasa said: "A sensitive video camera on a summit of the Vosges mountains in France captured these surprising fireworks above a distant horizon on June 26.

"Generated over intense thunderstorms, this one about 260 kilometers away, the brief and mysterious flashes have come to be known as red sprites.


© Stephane Vetter (TWAN)

"The transient luminous events are caused by electrical breakdown at altitudes of 50 to 100 kilometers.

"That puts them in the mesophere, the coldest layer of planet Earth's atmosphere."

Nasa also pointed out the faint silver lines you may have also spotted in the image.

The US space agency explained: "On the right, the video frames have captured another summertime apparition from the mesophere.

"The silvery veins of light are polar mesospheric clouds.

"Also known as noctilucent or night shining clouds, the icy clouds still reflect the sunlight when the Sun is below the horizon."

Nasa previously shared another image of the strange natural phenomenon that was also taken by Stephane Vetter.

That photo shows the red sprite lightning in much more detail.

Red sprites are electrical discharges that can occur high above clouds during a thunderstorm.

They are usually triggered when a positively charged lightning bolt from a cloud below hits the ground.

Recorded sightings of the jelly-fish like sprites date back to at least 1886.

"High-Probability" of Power Cuts as South Africa's "Double Cold Front" Increases Heating Demand - Electroverse

The most vulnerable will suffer the most. Many will be unable to heat their homes during what will be one of the coldest wintry blast of recent times.

electroverse.net

“HIGH-PROBABILITY” OF POWER CUTS AS SOUTH AFRICA’S “DOUBLE COLD FRONT” INCREASES HEATING DEMAND
JULY 10, 2020 CAP ALLON

The South African Weather Service (SAWS) says a double cold front has touched the west coast of South Africa, one expected to deliver strong winds, cold temperatures, and mountain snow across the country.

According to Kevin Rae, chief forecaster at the SAWS, it’s going to get very cold this weekend across the majority of the country.

“The drop in temperature will be quite dramatic,” said Rae, adding that small stock farmers, particularly in the Eastern Cape, should be prepared to cover their animals or bring them inside in the evenings.

Snow is expected in the mountains of the Western and Eastern Cape and Lesotho, with the weather service also predicting some rare flurries as far north as Namibia.

The fronts will also deliver gale force winds of between 60km/h and 75km/h — that’s enough to dislodge old trees, and cause damage to homes, especially in informal settlements.

“HIGH-PROBABILITY” OF POWER CUTS

South Africa’s state-owned utility warned of a “high probability” of power cuts through the weekend as a cold front increases demand.

The risk of nationwide rolling outages “has increased” reads an Eskom tweet dated July 10:

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1281496743473864705

View: https://twitter.com/Eskom_SA/status/1281496743473864705


Known locally as “loadshedding,” power outages are expected Friday during peak evening demand (16:00 to 22:00) and are likely to persist throughout the weekend, Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. said in a statement.

As reported by bloomberg.com, Eskom, a nearly century-old monopoly that generates most of the SA’s electricity, has become an economic liability.

This weekend’s severe cold front will raise demand to breaking point. Couple that with more businesses reopening due to a relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions, and you have a recipe for disaster, the likelihood of deeper cuts is increased, Eskom spokesman Sikonathi Mantshantsha said in an interview on CapeTalk radio.

The most vulnerable in society will suffer the most, as always. Many families will be unable to heat their homes during what is forecast to be one of the coldest wintry blast of recent times.

Eskom has asked users to reduce consumption by switching off non-essential lights and appliances. The company confirmed that it rely on diesel-fueled turbines designed for peak use to stave off the cuts, which will increase costs the utility is trying to reduce, added Mantshantsha.

The COLD TIMES are returning, to both hemispheres, in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow.

Even NASA appear to agree, if you read between the lines, with their forecast for this upcoming solar cycle (25) seeing it as “the weakest of the past 200 years,” with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.

Brianna van de Wijngaard's vegetable fields were under water last weekend, forcing her to harvest some crops, while hoping others survived.

Brianna van de Wijngaard spent nearly seven hours pulling crops out from under water last weekend.

Hundreds of kilograms of broccoli, kohlrabi and cabbage were placed into a little boat, floating on top of a metre of water in her one-and-a-half-acre field.

"I just went down there and started cutting the vegetables that were ready. The rest of our crops aren't ready yet, so I couldn't do anything about those," she said.

Van de Wijngaard owns the aptly named Puddle Produce Farm in Soda Creek, B.C., located near the Fraser River, which has been breaching its banks and causing flooding throughout the region.



© Brianna van de Wijngaard

Van de Wijngaard is the owner of Puddle Produce Farms in Soda Creek, B.C.

Her neighbours alerted her to water coming into the garden, so she rushed out to try to sandbag around it. By the next morning, two-thirds of the plot were under water, which meant she had to move fast if she wanted to save her livelihood.

She started the farm in 2013 when she moved to the Cariboo region from Vancouver Island, and she said she's almost at the point where she is making enough money to live off the farm.

But too much water in the fields can cause problems.

Van de Wijngaard said the water has started to drain, but it's uncertain what kind of damage it will do to her remaining crops.

"There's definitely going to be beds that we're probably going to lose," she said.

"I'm not sure which beds those will be. We put a lot of work into them and they were doing really well and we're definitely going to lose certain crops. At this point I just don't know how much."

Flooding in the Cariboo has helped Puddle Produce Farm more than live up to its name. Brianna van de Wijngaard speaks with Carolina de Ryk about trying to salvage veggies under three feet of water. 9:08

Wet weather causing problems for hay producers

Although the wet weather has been beneficial for B.C.'s Interior when it comes to preventing wildfires, it's also creating problems for hay producers in the province who require dry conditions to cut the hay.

If the weather doesn't warm up soon, some farmers may not be able to cut at all this season.

Cordy Cox, rancher and president of the Cariboo Cattlemen's Association, has been dealing with too much water on her property at Tatla Lake since the fall.

"A lot of the harvest will be getting over-mature at this point," she said.

"The water table is so high and the ground is so full of moisture that you can't drive any tractors out there right now or anything as you'll be sinking."

She said the cool weather has also slowed the growth of hay.

Ideally, Cox said, a long, hot stretch of weather will come to the Interior in coming weeks.

Many ranchers in the area already made insurance claims in 2019 when their crops flooded, and they could file for protection again, if they needed to.

"It's not a sure thing that nobody can harvest any hay yet but I mean people are starting to get a little worried," Cox said.

"There's not a ton of options other than buying hay or grazing the feed or waiting until it's possible to get on it and cutting it — you're actually fairly limited in your options until we get either warm weather or things dry out as we go through toward fall."

I haven't been keeping up with this thread lately, just have a hard time with what is going on out there. We've had a lot of rain and DH has been able to catch enough to fill 11-275 gallon tanks. One tank is mine for potable water and the others are to water the gardens. There is not rain predicted for the next ten days. The last few years we've had droughts in July and August. He pays $50 for the tanks that are in cages and gets the ones with out cages for free. He's built some cages out of treated 2/4s and each one costs about $50 for the materials. Treated lumber is not cheap. He's also cut several in half for raised beds, and building a frame to hold them. One raised be is filled and planted, so far. He has drilled holes in the bottom for drainage, we've put wood in the bottom then a layer of peat moss (that stuff is not cheap) and filled the remainder with dirt from the woods and then some purchased top soil. We'll see how they work out.

Thanks for all ya'lls hard work keeping this information available.

Several cold records shattered in The Netherlands yesterday
July 10, 2020 by Robert

Record low maximum temperatures across the north.

9 Jul 2020 – It has never been colder since the start of the measurements in Leeuwarden, in Nieuw-Beerta, and around the Wadden Sea at Lauwersoog, Hoorn and Vlieland.

The coldest was measured at 13.7C on Vlieland, which shattered the old record of 16.2C set in 2000. That the north also had a cold day in 2000 was also evident from the now broken records in Lauwersoog (14.9C), Nieuw-Beerta (14.7C) and Hoorn op Terschelling (16.2C). The record in Leeuwarden dates from 1978 and was 14.3C.

The new record values can be read on the map at the link below.

I think we're all having that problem, there's just so darn much going on and we're all trying to accomplish so much it's becoming mind-boggling! It really is a team effort, and everyone who shares adds a piece to the puzzle. It's amazing how much I learn from reading everyone's posts.

You're doing really well! We're stuck in one heck of a heat wave, too hot to do anything but keep the livestock and poultry going and water trees and garden. As it is, we're out early in the morning for the critters, repeat in the early evening, and that's when we catch up (ha!) on outside chores.

The news is really giving me an ominous feeling, more so than usual. I just ordered another set of replacement filters for our Berkey. I'm still looking to add to long-term food storage, and I thought I was pretty much done. God help us all....

I really need to order replacement filters too, but so expensive.

judy

Yep, I ordered mine from Pleasant Hill Grain (they're very low on most Berkeys, but had the filters). They show in stock (for now) $120 for a pair, free shipping, but add tax for your area. I'll just be glad to have another set!

 

[Martinhouse]

Luckily, I still have one set of Berkey filters still unopened. I had the money to buy two extra full sets of four back when one could get the four cartridges for $100. And my well is good but for brown algae, so the cartridges last me a very long time. Plus I saved the old filters to use for pre-filtering should my well ever go bad, or stop working where I'd need to find another water source that might not be as clean.

My sister made herself a bucket Berkey and uses a set of old cartridges in it to pre-filter her well water. She's had a problem with shale silt ever since the blasting from when a pipeline went through south of her several years ago.

I've been hearing of challenges in finding ag equipment parts for repairs. We have a piece of equipment out for work and its becoming an issue for a lot of ag people.

 

[Martinhouse]

Today the final little pieces of boards were cut and put into place in my newly roofed greenhouse. They were mainly those little slanted braces to reinforce corners.

Right now a new rear door is being built and I will be able to latch it properly because it will have an actual frame instead of just a hole I chiseled into the house brick to slide the bolt into. I think next week the rotted out bottom of the front door will be replaced, but not the whole thing, as I think we are out of lumber. There will be a board for it to close against though, so it, too, can be latched properly.

If the time comes that I need to actually lock this greenhouse, the new doors will let me do that.

Looks like next week will see the whole greenhouse project completely done. Sure is a lot of cleaning up to do! But it should be completely ready when it's time to do the fall/winter plants. I've given up trying for any hot weather plants in there this year. The repair has taken far too long.

I do seem to be growing an excellent crop of nut grass in there, though. Too bad there's no way to harvest those little roots. The bunnies and chickens would probably love them.

 

[TxGal]

Martinhouse, is it near 100 there? We're ticking up there with high humidity and a heat advisory in place...the grass is crunchy again. I sure hope you aren't working outside in the heat!! We can only do right after dawn for a short time, or just before dark. It's a little early here for 100 degrees....

 

[Martinhouse]

TxGal, I don't think it's gotten past 94 or 95 here yet, although I'm sure it has in the little towns and the bigger town. We're always three to five degrees cooler out here in the country. For us, it's a little early to be hitting mid- to upper nineties. That usually hits farther into July. None of my thermometers work and I've given up trying to buy a decent one. I just go outside and if it's too hot, I come back in. I bring the bunnies their ice at noon so it will last until evening. I tried to move a few patio blocks this morning but it was so humid I felt like I was drowning, so I only moved six of them. We get those afternoon showers lately that usually don't even amount to 1/8", but wet things enough for the sun to turn the water to steam the next day. I'm not walking on Rice Krispies yet! Things are still very lush from a recent big rain.

Nephew is packing up to go now and he'll be back Monday afternoon. Too bad they won't get up early and work in the cool of the morning, but to each his own, I guess.

I may do a little of the greenhouse clean-up this weekend while I have the place to myself. Depends on how I feel. Lord, what a mess it is out there! Plus there's a huge air compressor and a portable table saw living in there, now, too, so it might be that I just wait until all the tools and cords are gone, too.

Sigh. I'm too old and feeble to be doing all this! UGH!

Hope we get enough sun this winter to make lots of heat in that greenhouse. The clear roof will let in lots more light than the translucent plastic did, so I'm hopeful. GSM is supposed to make for more clouds, but we'certainly aren't seeing a lot of clouds this week! (:

Why a Strong Solar Cycle 25 still Spells Disaster - Electroverse

We humans are programmed to recognize cycles -- the timeline for cyclical catastrophes reside deep within every one of us. "Something is coming."

electroverse.net

WHY A STRONG SOLAR CYCLE 25 STILL SPELLS DISASTER
JULY 11, 2020 CAP ALLON

We at Electroverse love an outlier. In science, what are considered bold or outside of the box theories have just as much chance of being correct as mainstream lines of thought. After all, science doesn’t work on consensus.

While the vast majority of solar physicists are predicting a weak solar cycle 25 (the weakest of the next 200 years, according to NASA), one group of UK scientists have just released a paper (June 27, 2020) suggesting cycle 25 will in fact be the strongest since 1840.

The paper, entitled “Overlapping Magnetic Activity Cycles and the Sunspot Number: Forecasting Sunspot Cycle 25 Amplitude” (linked here), suggests that solar cycle 25 is going to be the highest activity cycle in all of modern history–note the purple dot in the below chart (with the green dot indicating the forecast of more than 75% of solar physicists).



If the purple dot plays out, says Diamond of the ORP, “we’re fluxed” in-or-around the year 2025 (the solar maximum of cycle 25).

The magnetic field of Earth has been waning rapidly since 1850, in line with the coming magnetic excursion/reversal or pole shift.

This rapid waning has increased ten-fold over recent years:

View: https://youtu.be/rxo6L255Pp0


Our planet’s magnetic field is our protection from space weather.

If we’re about to have the strongest solar cycle since 1840 –as proposed by the new paper– then the electrical grid, worldwide, is doomed to fail. The grid will be blasted by a powerful solar flare (or flares) while Earth’s shields are down–flares on par with the Carrington event of 1859, only far more destructive given our civilization’s total and utter dependence on electronics.

Quebec, 1989 is probably the best modern example of what could be.

As we’ve established, Earth’s magnetic field was far stronger 30 years ago than it is today. Yet still, on March 13, 1989 the entire province of Quebec, Canada suffered an electrical power blackout after a solar flare struck:

THE DAY THE SUN BROUGHT DARKNESS (NASA)

On Friday March 10, 1989 astronomers witnessed a powerful explosion on the sun. Within minutes, tangled magnetic forces on the sun had released a billion-ton cloud of gas. It was like the energy of thousands of nuclear bombs exploding at the same time.

The storm cloud rushed out from the sun, straight towards Earth, at a million miles an hour. The solar flare that accompanied the outburst immediately caused short-wave radio interference, including the jamming of radio signals from Radio Free Europe into Russia — it was thought that the signals had been jammed by the Kremlin.

On the evening of Monday, March 12 the vast cloud of solar plasma (a gas of electrically charged particles) finally struck Earth’s magnetic field. The violence of this ‘geomagnetic storm’ caused spectacular ‘northern lights’ that could be seen as far south as Florida and Cuba.

The magnetic disturbance was incredibly intense. It actually created electrical currents in the ground beneath much of North America. Just after 2:44 a.m. on March 13, the currents found a weakness in the electrical power grid of Quebec. In less than 2 minutes, the entire Quebec power grid lost power.

During the 12-hour blackout that followed, millions of people suddenly found themselves in dark office buildings and underground pedestrian tunnels, and in stalled elevators. Most people woke up to cold homes for breakfast. The blackout also closed schools and businesses, kept the Montreal Metro shut during the morning rush hour, and closed Dorval Airport.

The solar flare that hit was a relatively minor one (when compared to the Carrington event, for example), yet the Quebec Blackout was by no means a local event. Across the United States from coast to coast, over 200 power grid problems erupted within minutes of the start of the March 13 storm. In space, satellites actually tumbled out of control for several hours. NASA’s TDRS-1 communication satellite recorded over 250 anomalies as high-energy particles invaded the satellite’s sensitive electronics. Even the Space Shuttle Discovery was having its own mysterious problems. A sensor on one of the tanks supplying hydrogen to a fuel cell was showing unusually high pressure readings on March 13. The problem went away just as mysteriously after the solar storm subsided.

Quebec Blackout, 1989.

Although solar cycle 25 is undoubtedly around the corner, breaking down the latest data reveals it certainly isn’t here yet–least any signs that it’s going to be the monster that McIntosh et al suggest it’s going to be.

But before we get into that, it stands that perhaps those researchers in the UK are actually onto something. Looking at their sunspot prediction again, the year 1840 –the highest solar maximum of the modern era and one comparable to what they say is coming in the near future– lands just two decades before the Carrington Event:

This could very well be a predictor for the next destructive solar outburst.

Two decades after the peak of solar cycle 25 takes us to approx. 2045. That puts it right on the timeline of Douglas Vogt’s work. Vogt’s research suggests the Sun will outburst its shell in October, 2046 in catastrophic fashion.

Perhaps these guys are onto something.

Perhaps not.

Time will tell.

But something we can know here and now — the latest data:

Looking at the last year of daily solar wind at SOHO (below), you can clearly see the speed has been decreasing over the past year, says Diamond — and “we’re still extending lower.”


[solen.info]

The Electron Flux (below) further supports this.

We are holding at or near the bottom, which would indicate we’re still in the minimum of solar cycle 24.


[solen.info]

And likewise, the solar cycle sunspot number progression through May, 2020 shows us firmly rooted within the deepest solar minimum of the past 150 years:


[swpc.noaa.gov]

The solar minimum of cycle 24 has been the weakest of the past 150 years. What solar cycle 25 has in store remains anyone’s guess–even now, just months from its inception. Most signals point to it being another weak one, and the combining impact of multiple deep minimums will bring global temperatures plummeting.

But whether solar cycle 25 is strong or weak the need to prepare remains imperative. The COLD TIMES are likely returning, and they will likely be accompanied by a SOLAR FLARE/CME powerful enough to take out the grid between 2023-2027 (as SC25 experiences its max).

2046’s catastrophic outburst is less certain.

But things appear to be falling into place.

We humans are programmed to recognize cycles — the timeline for cyclical catastrophes reside deep within every one of us.

Look at the world today.

We sense it.

We recognize something is coming.

It would appear, however, that not everyone knows where to invest this energy. The blind panic over Climate Change and COVID-19, as well as degrading movements like BLM, are probably confused reactions to this impending sense of catastrophe.

But instead of hopping on the MSM’s bandwagon of doom, invest that energy into useful causes — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Record cold in the mesosphere causing noctilucent clouds in mid latitudes
July 11, 2020 by Robert

“It’s getting cold in the mesosphere. Very cold,” wrote Dr. Tony Phillips in early June.

This development is causing noctilucent clouds (NLCs) to spill out of the Arctic to middle latitudes.

“I’ve been waiting for years to see NLCs (noctilucent clouds), and finally it happened!” reported Phil Halpert from London, England. He noticed their electric-blue ripples over local rooftops, then rushed out to photograph them over Clissold Park.
“2020 is shaping up to be a cold and wet year in the mesosphere,” says Lynn Harvey of the University of Colorado Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics.

“Temperatures, in particular, are very cold,” says Harvey. “In fact, mid-latitude temperatures (35N-55N) in late May (DOY 142-148) were the coldest of the AIM record”–that is, since 2007 when NASA’s AIM spacecraft began monitoring noctilucent clouds.

I have no idea what this means to us down here on the surface of the planet, do you?

Highest U.S. Temperatures on Record by State - Electroverse

The raw data speaks for itself -- the United States was hotter in the past. "They" can fudge the charts, but they can't alter the record books.

electroverse.net

HIGHEST U.S. TEMPERATURES ON RECORD BY STATE
JULY 12, 2020 CAP ALLON

Historical documentation destroys the man-made global warming theory.

While those in control of the temperature graphs are all too happy to fraudulently increase the running average, what they haven’t (yet) had the balls to do is rewrite the history books.

As Tony Heller uncovers on his site realclimatescience, NASA routinely cools the past and heats the present, so to give the illusion of a greater warming trend. Comparisons between old and new graphs instantly reveals this fraud:
In 1999, NASA’s James Hansen reported 0.5C US cooling since the 1930’s:



By 2016, the same NASA graph has eliminated that 1930-1999 cooling:



This is fraud. Plain and simple.

But as touched-on above, what those grubby little warm-mongers haven’t yet “altered” is the historical weather record books.

Below I’ve listed the highest temperature on record by U.S. State, according to NOAA. If CO2-induced global warming is real then surely most of the records will have been set over the past few years, or at least since the turn of the new millennium, in line with increasing carbon dioxide emissions, right…?

Let’s see…

SD has hit 120F (48.9C) twice — once on July 5, 1936 in Gann Valley, and again on July 15, 2006 in Fort Pierre.

TENNESSEE
Perryville on the Tennesee River hit 113F (45C) twice in 1930.

115F (46.1C) was reached twice in Wyoming, once in Basin on August 8, 1983 and once on the Diversion Dam by Wind River Reservation on July 15, 1988.

This raw data speaks for itself — the United States was hotter in the past.

According to NOAA’s own data, of the 50 U.S. state all-time record high temperatures, 23 were set during the 1930s, while 36 occurred prior to 1960.

They can’t alter the record books.

Anthropogenic global warming is a lie.

Perversely, a bout of GLOBAL COOLING will likely be Earth’s next temperature swing, one arriving in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow.

Even NASA appear to agree, if you read between the lines, with their forecast for this upcoming solar cycle (25) seeing it as “the weakest of the past 200 years,” with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.




Prepare accordingly — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Record Summer Cold Sweeps the Netherlands - Electroverse

At least 5 weather stations across northern Holland have just busted all-time low temperature records for the month of July.

RECORD SUMMER COLD SWEEPS THE NETHERLANDS
JULY 13, 2020 CAP ALLON

According to weerplaza.nl, 5 weather stations across northern Holland have just busted all-time low temperature records for the month of July.

Since record books began, the daily-high has never been lower in the regions of Leeuwarden, Nieuw-Beerta, Lauwersoog, Hoorn, and Vlieland.

A max of just 13.7C was registered in Vlieland, smashing the village’s old record of 16.2C set in 2000.

Lauwersoog saw a new record low-max of 14.9C.

Nieuw-Beerta shivered through 14.7C.

Hoorn suffered 16.2C.

And finally, Leeuwarden’s previous record of 14.3C from 1978 was recently pipped by a reading of 14.1C.



One that narrowly missed out — Eelde’s reading of 14.2C came close to busting its all-time low-max of 14.0C which was set way back in 1909. Friday’s reading did however beat-out the next two coldest days: 2000’s 14.8C and 1978’s 15.1C.

The anomalous summer cold is persisting across the Netherlands:

And the cold is actually intensifying across the majority of Europe. Here, temperature departures look set to tumble 4C-12C below the seasonal average throughout July:

The COLD TIMES appear to be returning in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow.

Even NASA appear to agree, if you read between the lines, with their forecast for this upcoming solar cycle (25) seeing it as “the weakest of the past 200 years,” with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.

Proof that NASA and NOAA are erasing the Arctic's 1940s "warming blip" - Electroverse

Comparisons of Iceland's raw temp data vs the NASA adjusted data reveals the fraud -- cool the past in order to create a fake warming trend.

PROOF THAT NASA AND NOAA ARE ERASING THE ARCTIC’S 1940S “WARMING BLIP”
JULY 13, 2020 CAP ALLON

Tony Heller’s website realclimatescience.com is a one-stop shop for exposing government agency data-fudging. For decades, NASA/NOAA have been cooling the past so as to create a fake warming trend — all in a desperate attempt to sustain their failing AGW theory.

Furthermore, and not to get too personal here, but why are the scientists at the heart of the fraud such slimy, thinned-skinned wusses–desperate to evade scrutiny at all costs? What do they have to hide?

Case in point, watch this embarrassing interview with NASA’s Gavin Schmidt and the excellent Dr Roy Spencer. Schmidt only agreed to speak if it “wasn’t a debate”. And while I urge you watch the entire video, particularly the parts with the Spencer (a real climate scientist btw), skip to 2:00 and then to 6:30 if you’re interested in Schmidt’s “la la la, I’m not listening to you” evading tactics.

So NASA refuses to debate an issue which supposedly negatively impacts every living organism on the planet — and 2013 should be considered the good old days. Now, the climate fraudsters have worked a position where so-called skeptics have no platform at all. Today, even this kind of non-debate would never be agreed to.

But looking at the ever-mounting case against NASA/NOAA re their temperature graphs, they probably have good reason to evade scrutiny.

Serving as just one example, government agencies have been erasing the 1940s warmth in the Eastern Arctic for decades, writes Tony Heller.

This is what the raw data for Iceland’s capital Reykjavík looks like:


[Measured – NASA]

And this is what the data looks like after NASA made its adjustments:

Note the tactic — cool the past in order to fabricate a warming trend where there was none before:

A comparison [NASA link removed]

Removing the warmth of the 1940s (without any justification) was discussed by the world’s leading climate experts in this Climategate email:

Those at the Icelandic Met Office (IMO) couldn’t understand the adjustments.

Trausti Jónsson, senior meteorologist at the IMO, wrote in 2012 that his office was never advised as to the reason for them.

Furthermore, Jónsson said the temperature corrections “are grossly in error in the case of Reykjavík…” And when asked if the IMO intended to modify its data to match that of NASA’s/NOAA’s, Jónsson replied: “no”.

Years later, Jónsson suspiciously flipped his story, going from “the corrections are grossly in error” to “the adjustments are quite sound” — and no explanation for this change of heart was given.

And just as suspiciously, after the heat that followed NASA’s Icelandic temperature tampering debacle, Schmidt and his band of merry frauds quietly stopped adjusting Reykjavík’s data, without comment — thus confirming the removal of the 1940s warmth was without justification.

Temperature adjustments aren’t just confined to the Eastern Arctic, of course.

Government book-cooking encompasses the entire globe.

Back in 1999, NASA clearly showed that there was no net global warming from 1866 to 1976, and that 1877 was the warmest year during that interval:


Archived version linked here.

Note that this looks nothing like Michael Mann’s infamous hockey stick blade, where Mann shows roughly 0.4C net warming from 1866 to 1976:

This, again, deserves explanation.

NASA/NOAA, again, give none.

Don’t fall for warm-mongering political agendas riding on the back of fraudulent data. Particularly when the real science suggests the exact opposite is occurring — the COLD TIMES are likely returning in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow.

Even NASA appear to agree, if you read between the lines, with their forecast for this upcoming solar cycle (25) seeing it as “the weakest of the past 200 years,” with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.

Prepare accordingly — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Hundreds flock to see the snow in Matroosberg, South Africa, many for the first time

An intense cold front turned parts of the Western Cape highlands into a winter wonderland.

People waited in a long queue to enter the Matroosberg Nature Reserve on Saturday to get a first-hand glimpse of the snow that fell over the Western Cape highlands on the weekend.

The intense cold front that hit South Africa on Thursday created the perfect winter wonderland thanks to widespread snowfall in the Eastern Cape, Lesotho and areas across the Western Cape.

The muddy and ice-cold conditions didn't deter people from hiking the short distance into the mountains to play in the snow - many for the first time.

"This is breathtaking," said TEFL teacher Donito Adonis who got to hold snow for the first time. "I never thought I'd see snow like this in South Africa," he told News24.

Chartered accountant, Stephanie Bugan, who visited the nature reserve with her family said that although she expected more snow, the "bumpy" ride was worth it.

"A couple of minutes ago it actually snowed and we felt the snow so that was nice," she told News24.

The top of the mountain was off limits to 4x4 vehicles as the conditions were too extreme, the nature reserve posted on their Facebook page on Saturday. However, an array of snowmen dotted the area where people tossed snowballs at one other at the base of the mountain.

"There is no way we can take anybody up the mountain or let any vehicle drive themselves as you cannot see the road.

Snowing all over again, sub-zero temperatures. Cannot believe the bottom half of the mountain is having fun and we don't know if we are going uphill or downhill," the post read.

They also apologised for the very long queues and promised to do their best to help everyone enjoy their visit.

Siblings, Londa and Lunathi Mchunu, were engaged in a snowball battle, throwing the occasional snowball in their mother's direction.

"This is the only time we actually get to hit our mom," laughed Londa. Her brother added, "The movies make it look a lot softer."

A horn was sounded just after 17:00 to let all visitors know it was time to exit the park.

According to the South African Weather Service, the cold front is expected to affect the Western Cape and Northern Cape into Monday.
