Mini Ice Age? (Page 9) duncan124: Adapt looks at the snow in the USA while European temperatures rise. An attempt to shake off the unwanted followers or another example of the gulf between the US and Europe?? ...or perhaps an example of the Social-political issues at the heart of the US namely the poor are shuffled off to the cold and dark north east. duncan124: Dust covers cars in southern Portugal. This must be a more wide spread dusting as local orange dusts are ignored by the news or Theportugalnews is trying to make a point. Without proper analysis to identify the dust it is a guess where it came from. http://www.theportugalnews.com/news/more-dust-covers-cars-in-southern-portugal/41358 The idea must be more heat and perhaps more wild fires.  ghostgeek: A large amount of Saharan dust was swept up into a low pressure system over north Africa on February 21, 2017. Thick dust cloud has already reached Spain and Portugal and is now moving east, toward Italy, Malta and the Balkans. The event is expected to last into early next week. Areas particularly affected will be the Iberian Peninsula, Balearic Islands, southern France, Corsica, Sardinia, Italy, Malta, southwestern Balkans, Greece, Cyprus and Turkey. Some dust may be deposited from the air without rainfall, but a significantly larger amount will be deposited with rainfall over the central Mediterranean and the Balkans on Friday and Saturday, February 23 and 24. Look for yellowish Saharan dust on surfaces of objects, such as cars, SWE said. [ https://watchers.news/2017/02/23/thick-saharan-dust-europe-february-2017/ ] duncan124: The was the 23rd of February if you believe it. You can see from the weather reports that the weather has not stayed the same for all that time so I think we can rule out the sahara. And in anycase there were several sources of dust which meant that the type of dust had to be identified by skilled scientists--which of course no longer exist or are not funded in Portugal. duncan124: Phys Org article points out that during the Mini Ice Age and at other cold times there was also unbearable hot weather too. https://phys.org/news/2017-04-sunspots-frost-fairs-rethinking-ice.html While still going on about Global Warming the official world might now be willing to admit that geographical changes are going on as well as a Solar Minimum. I remember during the early 1980s many of the Mini Ice Age effects were going on for short periods. Long dry, hot or windless weather is a warning that it might stay cold too. Indeed when the wind blows it is not warm. Often now people can be found together wearing shorts or warm winter coats depending just where they were coming from. duncan124: Research into the Polar Vortex Oscillation predicts a warmer then average April ( until about the 18th ). https://www.aer.com/science-research/climate-weather/arctic-oscillation So in other words it could have been hotter. And maybe this Solar Minimum means the start of another warm epoch for Europe?? duncan124: Scientists warn of high pollen counts in Portugal. "The Society has warned hay fever sufferers that due to the climbing temperatures, polen levels with be very high across mainland Portugal, until next week. It advised special precautions should be taken by those with allergies due to the high concentration of pollen that will be in the air."Portugalnews. In the UK also the leaves on the trees are coming out in time for Easter and the cherry has been in bloom. Goes to show how well the old pagans planned Easter. ghostgeek: I'm not sure the old Pagans ever concerned themselves with Easter, it being a Christian festival. duncan124: C4mp looks again at the blue skys across Europe. In his video you can see the swirling winds that are leaving Europe in a beautiful state for spring. And also the cold winds blowing from the Americas. In his video of the 9th he circles a small cloud over Poland which has often been reported before and years a go I flew over it to see what was the cause. It turned out to be caused by Berlin ( and is just a helpful flag waved by Poland.) Ironically these windy conditions about the world, with Tropical storms and powerful vortexes could be caused by a lack of wind leaving highs and lows to stack up like railcars bumping against each other. With more movement the changes in the seasons are less pronounced and less dramatic. duncan124: Easter is determined by the Moon and Spring Equinox and was only adopted by the Christians in 840. Consulting or even mentioning the Moon in relation to religion was likely to result in the most unexpected results if you were talking to Christians. It is fairly obvious that the ancients worked out the orbit of the Moon and Earth and how they impacted the weather. It is a good guess that the tidal forces of the moon influence the Polar Vortex which has just flipped to its summer home. " It is not celebrated on the same date every year, but instead on the first Sunday following the full moon after the Spring Equinox. The day is commemorated in several ways, and most of these traditions have nothing to do with the meaning of the holiday – but instead relate to the pagan festivals of ancient Germany. Children are typically given baskets filled with sweets, and eggs are decorated and hidden for children to find in the form of an Easter egg hunt." Grimsby Telegraph There are a plethora of websites all saying how Easter is really a Christian festival, some with pleasant illustrations even, but there is no disguising the fact that they are trying to steal it from others.... A link to Ghostgeeks other threads..... duncan124: " Two Portuguese counties have been put on a “very high” fire risk alert due to the rising temperatures today." portugalnews. duncan124: Thewatchers report claims cold weather ( from the USA ) will blow across Europe in the next few days. https://watchers.news/2017/04/10/models-suggest-unusually-significant-cold-outbreak-in-europe/ This seems to support the theory ( you read it here ) that the USA is heading in to a significant cold period. However this has all happened before and doesn't often effect the farming in eastern Europe unless the cold air is lower. Except showing that they have had no influence on weather forecasting! duncan124: Serious fishing! Leicester University finally publishes its research into the Great Cold Spot on Jupiter in relation to aurora. Spookerly timed to coincide with the cold draft at the end of the Polar Vortex this paper from the University that warned of a Mini Ice Age superficially claims a link between the electronic aurora and cooling. This was found via SO who has invested a lot into its ideas around The Electronic Universe. https://www2.le.ac.uk/offices/press/press-releases/2017/april/2018cold2019-great-spot-discovered-on-jupiter I am very sceptical and point to the USAs refusal to go back and set right its refusal to allow evidence about for example polar ice caps on Mars as a source of the concepts involved in this new paper. Leicester has provided several links for people to download the research paper to study at home. duncan124: We all agree that Easter is a feast day no matter who was promoting it. Promoters have also found,... " Satellite magnetic anomalies of the Antarctic Wilkes Land impact basin inferred from regional gravity and terrain data." by R.R.B. von Frese a,⁎, H.R. Kim b, T.E. Leftwich a, J.W. Kim c, A.V. Golynsky d ..which claims,... " Free-air gravity and subglacial topography data of north central Wilkes Land in East Antarctica are consistent with the effects of a giant meteorite impact basin" We already knew that aurora proceed colder weather conditions from empirical knowledge and that in the Arctic winters the effect is more pronounced. We also must note that today Europe is divided into hot and cold regions and that the Germans built Death Camps only in the cold regions duncan124: "Cold April morning for parts of NSW Jacobus Cronje, Saturday April 15, 2017 - 14:00 AEST A number of locations in New South Wales had their coldest April morning in several years, including parts of Sydney. Places like Armidale, Mudgee, Lithgow and Scone had their coldest morning for the month since 28 April 2015. Residents of Thredbo Village had their seventh below-zero minimum temperature for this month and coldest April morning since 29 April 2015, dropping to a wintry -3 degrees. Horsley park in Sydney cooled to nine degrees in the early hours of the morning, the coldest April day since 2014. Cooling overnight and into early morning in recent days can be attributed to the clear skies seen across the state just before sunrise, brought on by the ridge of high pressure currently situated over much of the southeastern parts of the country." - Weatherzone. So it seems Australia does have cold temperatures sometimes. I guess that is why they called it New South Wales. But then again so do a lot of desserts and they are not known for their cold weather either! duncan124: Adapt asks if he has got it wrong?? Yes Adapt you have. Fishing about the history of the Rhine with titles like " ...White food... " and that awful map at the end shows you have a problem. And indeed the previous video wasn't very good either when it claimed the cold was going to chase down eastern Europe all the way to Iraq. duncan124: Europe divided by the weather! Cold weather causes the central heating system to be put back on for a few days in Bucharest. " As in the last period the weather seemed to be rather autumn than in the spring, and news from meteorologists for the next period are even worse, RADET officials have taken an important measure for Bucharest connected to the centralized heating system . " Enational Enational has its own view on the subject but don't tell the politicians about the Romanian capitals central heating system. Meanwhile.... The " National Civil Protection " in Portugal has warned about the dangers of forest fires at high altitudes for the next three days! "Officials say this alert comes following continued warm weather accompanied with strong winds, especially in high-lying and forested areas. Civil Protection authorities have also banned controlled fires in northern and central regions of the country due to the heightened risk of them spreading and reaching uncontrollable proportion" Portugalnews . Satellite views showed Spain, Portugal and southern England with clear blue skys while Rome Athens and Vienna had 30 mph winds as a storm moved east from Italy. duncan124: But is it the start of a Mini Ice Age or something else?? With weather charts predicting a cold draft across Europe and then it happens its not hard to see that predictions of a Mini Ice Age due to the solar quiet also have validity. But is that the right Conclusion at this time??? I don't think it is. And there are several clues to help find the right answer. For One the predictions of a colder draft were exaggerated with claims of freezing conditions. in the event only St Petersburg was below freezing. For Two it is not unknown for England to have snow in March and April. So the weather is mild for this time of year. For Three the forecast excluded other known weather phenomenon such as a cold draft like that also brings in far warmer weather from the south. The right Conclusion seems to be that the weather behaved just at it does and those talking about it were trying to obscure our understanding and reasoning. duncan124: TheWatchers claim auroras were seen as far south as Colorado and NASA said an unexpected geomagnetic storm had started. Obviously auroras are the next big thing with the official watchers staking lots on them. They make nice bright pictures and are known science. Anyone could watch them if they went to the freezing cold parts but no one bothers to. But TheWatchers goes on to say Europe is suffering freezing conditions and claims Austria had feet of snow! Obviously it didn't as you can see for yourself on any weather forecast or sat viewer. Unless they meant on top of the mountains where there might be snow but no surprises there. We know the cold air from the USA blows across Europe and brings the cold from the north, the Arctic even, Auroras have been studied in the past and quantified but the information is not intuitively described and difficult to understand at a glance. Other people have also noticed that there are reactions amongst humans to aurora which suggest the supernatural and the occult and often inspired stories and movies. It seems the US inspired websites are afraid changes caused by the aurora will reveal something amongst the people. duncan124: " Monchique placed on very high fire alert " http://www.theportugalnews.com/uploads/news/MONCHIQUE_1.jpg Portugualnews reports the threat of fire on the public holiday of the 25th of April. duncan124: Old research is presented to explain the weather in Europe. https://watchers.news/2017/04/25/how-little-ice-age-displaced-the-tropical-rain-belt/ "The ETH researcher and her colleagues have now managed to demonstrate how the tropical weather system shifted a good way south between 1450 and 1850, a period known as the Little Ice Age. “This migration is linked to the lower global temperatures during this time,” explains Lechleitner. " TheWatchers. While TheWatchers and Adapt 2030 have been claiming freezing weather the search was on for what could dig them out of the hole I guess. Adapt 2030 is still ranting in an insane manner about the freezing weather in Europe in his latest video. What makes him do that??? Why does n't he just check the weather forecast sites. They give the temp in most place sin Europe and it seems the weather is warm everywhere. duncan124: Sawmill fire; a guess is the infighting between SO and Adapt has caused this news item to return. After his claims of freezing weather in Europe he was out to do harm and So altered the tone of his own speech to hopefully avoid adverse and belittling comments. Now Thewatchers is trying to call it a day with this Bush Time story. https://watchers.news/2017/04/26/sawmill-fire-arizona-started-by-target-shooter/ | Science Chat Room 5 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
