Mini Ice Age? (Page 35) duncan124: The Southern winter seems to be the main winter Angry. But as it misses most of the landmasses it seems to get less attention. However, if you seen my posts from a little while before the recent heat wave, I thought there was a surprise in the very large southern Polar Vortex and other high winds even in the north of Africa. It seems the difference in the solar heating of land and water is a major feature of this Minimum and if its been cold in Australia it has probably been cold over a lot of water too. " Thermosphere Climate Index, today: 3.37x1010 W Cold" Spaceweather. 02.07.19 The upper atmosphere is not getting warmed this European summer duncan124: " According to data from the European Copernicus service on climate change, temperatures rose 0.1 ° C in June from the previous record of June 2016 and it was mainly in Europe that it was very hot, with a temperature of about 2 ° C above normal. Several records were broken last week in European countries hit by heat due to a mass of hot air coming from the Sahara desert." The Portugal News. Dangerous hype?? Yes I think so. It looks like the far Right Wing, Reagan and Hitler in Portugal , are trying to claim hot weather is tied to their mast. Electroverse has some interesting reports, especially about Tasmania and Australia. https://electroverse.net/category/gsm/ But also mentions that only a few weeks ago we were told to expect maybe a record cold June, and indeed, it was awful weather! duncan124: 0.1 is too small a gain to support Global Warming even and I guess represents changes in the environment. Looking at the stats for the UK available for free on the Internet it seems June was about average for max heat, and I guess above average for days with rain, the average was eight and below average for days with Sunlight as the skys were cloudy for weeks even if it did n't rain. However wind speed and night temperatures are not so obviously rendered and I guess were higher and colder this June. duncan124: Cloud making eruptions in the Med! "Powerful explosions at Stromboli volcano, strongest since 2007, Italy" " The activity at the volcano suddenly increased at 14:46:10 UTC with one of the largest paroxysms in recent years, affecting the central-southern area of the Stromboli crater terrace. Two main explosive events were detected at 14:46:10 and 14:46:40 UTC, respectively." TheWatchers. https://watchers.news/2019/07/03/powerful-explosions-at-stromboli-volcano-strongest-since-2007-italy/ duncan124: X rays are flat lining Spaceweather says. This could be a sign that the next cycle is getting ready to start. But they have to keep on flat lining for some weeks at least . Spaceweather is keen to push the start of cycle 25. But its recent evidence , a reversed polarity Sunspot , has not been followed by the next events and in fact might show the start is someway off still and the lack of X rays just a sign of the depth of this minimum. duncan124: Cold water helps the wild flowers in Colorado. https://coloradosun.com/2019/07/04/colorado-wildflower-hikes-super-bloom/ duncan124: " Record low temperature set in the Netherlands, July noticeably colder across Europe The temperature at the former Twente airbase in the eastern Netherlands dropped to -1.6 °C (29.1 °F) overnight July 4, 2019, setting a new low-temperature record for the month of July and greeting residents with fresh summer frost." The Watchers. duncan124: Electroverse looks at Prof Zharkovas paper after it is accepted for official publication on the 24th of June 2019. https://electroverse.net/professor-valentina-zharkovas-expanded-analysis-still-confirms-super-grand-solar-minimum-2020-2055/ "Zharkova’s team’s expanded ‘double dynamo’ calculations match-up almost perfectly with the timelines of past Grand Minimas: the Maunder Minimum (1645–1715), Wolf minimum (1300–1350), Oort minimum (1000–1050), Homer minimum (800–900 BC); as well as with the past Grand Maximas: the Medieval Warm Period (900–1200), the Roman Warm Period (400–150 BC), and so on." It wouldn't be science without the promise of Jam Tomorrow,- " It confirms a Grand Solar Minimum from 2020 to 2055, as all four magnetic fields of the sun go out of phase, while now also suggesting centuries of natural warming post-Minima." Electro goes on to point out that NASA has now predicted a new Dalton Minimum "The agency is effectively forecasting a return to the Dalton Minimum (1790-1830) without giving mention to the brutal cold, crop loss, famine, war and powerful Volcanic eruptions associated with it." But as History Never Repeats Itself and the American Agency has no records from before that time and probably none from that time how this new Minimum is going to be experienced is anyones guess. I think mankind had altered the surface of the world so much that it will reflect the new solar low in a different way and the Solar low will change the landscape more then before as man kind has left it far more than in the past. duncan124: So Colorado is now in the Arctic circle. It is also in about the centre of the USA, with Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington all to the north and west of it. The west is where the weather is coming from. Does this mean the Earth has exchanged the frozen wastes of the polar caps for freezing the mountains and valleys of the North West. Perhaps the Earth needed to re-balance the equations after losing the cold of the ice sheets? duncan124: Is Colorado the Fourth Pole?? The third being the Tibetan Plateau , where we are told many important rivers start. The Colorado river fed the Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam project but with changes in the precipitation in the mountains in the north west what happens now is a good question!! duncan124: "Over the past year, it has rained incessantly in the Washington region, shattering records. Most areas have seen at least 70 inches of rain, and a few over 90 inches. There are no previous 365-day periods that can match these numbers." The Washington post. May 2019 TWP also goes on to mention changes in the Jetstream which would also help cool the mountains on Colorado. Last year there was also the record breaking Pressure Trough over Canada and Alaska, and of course the immense summer in Europe. duncan124: Suspicious Observers spots start of Cycle 25. Suspious Observers spotted another reversed polarity Sunspot and now Spaceweather is also saying this looks like the start of cycle 25 " Thermosphere Climate Index today: 3.16x1010 W Cold " Spaceweather The Index has now to be expected to drop away to winter levels even if summer in the north is still just underway. (Edited by duncan124) duncan124: "Yesterday's reversed polarity sunspot, AR2744, has dissolved, leaving the sun blank. Credit: SDO/HMI" Spaceweather. duncan124: " NOAA: 12-month precipitation record hits all-time high for the third month in a row, U.S. " The Watchers. https://watchers.news/2019/07/09/12-month-precipitation-record-all-time-high-united-states/ The eastern states of the Former USA are now the wettest NOAA reports and north western areas that had had record cold and wet are now suffering with drought. Indeed the extra rain is blamed for the formation of storm Barry in the Gulf. Mean time Spaceweather has lost its gallery and is looking again at the NCLs and saying that extra water in the Mesosphere was the cause along with rising temps. "At mid-latitudes, the mesosphere remains quite wet, but temperatures have been rising this month," says Harvey. "The rising temperatures could be suppressing the formation of NLCs."Spaceweather. But again the graph only shows the temp to be about average -- with some peaks. The temp could only be a factor and other reasons must be found I think. Interestingly Brazil, famous for its River and misty forests is the only place that still sees meteors. duncan124: "Thermosphere Climate Index today: 3.16x1010 W Cold " Spaceweather. After a slight rise the Index falls back to 3.16 as it was 5 days ago. duncan124: I think there has to be a bigger differential between the temp of the atmosphere in the Mesosphere and the air above it. And the NCLs are caused by a chain reaction started by the dust particles from space. What Spaceweather is saying without realising it is that there are more clouds in the lower air which NCLs require to turn blue. duncan124: Dr Cohen in his AER blog predicts warmer West Coast America and colder European weather. He also depicts in his graphs stronger cold and heat without much neutral ground between so far this summer. Giving North America and Canada more cold against warmer parts of Europe https://www.aer.com/science-research/climate-weather/arctic-oscillation/ (Edited by duncan124) duncan124: Are we going to see a record cold upper atmosphere?? " Thermosphere Climate Index today: 2.73x1010 W Cold. Min: 2.05x1010 W Cold (02/2009)" Spaceweather. 5 days ago it was 3.16. duncan124: Heat wave forecast for next week. http://www.severe-weather.eu/recent-events/the-upcoming-extreme-heatwave-update-low-30s-across-england-38-42-c-across-france-expected-by-mid-next-week-july-22-26th/ The two factors of the Solar minimum weather are at work. duncan124: Record cold July in the former USA and a heat wave in Europe are connected?? https://watchers.news/2019/07/25/unusually-strong-cold-front-brings-record-low-july-temperatures-to-southern-u-s/ This One Up One Down weather could be the result of the Solar minimum or due to geological changes. Or indeed a combination of both. But without this heatwave Europe was looking pretty cold at the start of July too So without this hot air from Africa, which might be a result of the Solar Minimum, we would be saying this was a cold year. And when the Solar cycle picks up a little we might have a cold time here in the UK like we had at the start of the 1980s. Brrr! duncan124: Record dodging spotless time. "SOLAR MINIMUM CONDITIONS ARE IN EFFECT: The sun has been blank (no sunspots) for 54 of the past 60 days. ..." Spaceweather. 24.07.19 duncan124: The storm , or something like it , has been around the coast for some time now. "A quite unusual event is expected today as a rather deep cyclone (central pressure this morning was around 987 mbar, July 29th) has developed over the Bay of Biscay and will bring severe winds into NW France and SW England this evening. High waves are also likely along the coastal areas of Brittany." SWE I guess it could be related to the cold in the former USA. | Science Chat Room Similar Conversations |
