Phil the Groundhog better get ready

A BIG WEATHER PATTERN CHANGE COMING.. THE HOG WON’T KNOW WHAT HITS HIM..

Seriously.. we are going from a mild winter to a suddenly cold and snowy one here in the East ..  This weather model you’re looking at for example shows what MAY be a February 6ish storm along the coast, Nor’Easter potential… Blizzard condition potential.

The big thing will be a bout of not one but SEVERAL storms that can do the same run along land and water .. 

The battle line will now be about where the rain and snow falls..

Developing weather..

OBSERVATION MODE!! THE 'MAYHEM NOR'EASTER'

This is going to be a big storm.. It strikes tonight. Lots of rain.. lots of wind.. and for those who get it, a ton of snow.

It is the same storm causing absolute horror in the South right now with deadly tornadoes..

Some models showcasing the strangely different forecasts that are simultaneously being run right now by computer systems..

It's almost time for observation mode. Until then, the varied forecasts keep confusing the professionals while the debate continues on the message board on Accuweather that I have been following for weeks about this storm!

I really absolutely cannot believe how much different all of these forecasts maps actually are..
The mayhem Nor'Easter indeed.

Watching closely..

Extreme weather: Florida tornado warning, January 22 2017

This is direct from a post only moments ago on Weatherboy Weather:

Know anyone in central Florida? Vacationing at the Orlando-area theme parks? Visiting the Florida Space Coast? Relaxing in the Tampa-St. Petersburg area?
HELP US GET THE WORD OUT: A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION / TORNADO WATCH has been issued for this region. This rare but extremely severe watch is issued when theres'a high chance of life-threatening tornadoes.
Tornadoes can be large, extremely strong, and pursue very long touch-down tracks across many towns.
If you or your loved ones are in this area, make sure they are aware of this imminent danger. People in this zone should constantly monitor the National Weather Service for TORNADO WARNING information and take IMMEDIATE ACTION should a Tornado Warning be issued for their county --you may only have minutes to save your life!!!
THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL LEAD TO ADDITIONAL LOSS OF LIFE. PLEASE TAKE THESE THREATS SERIOUSLY AND TAKE EVERY PRECAUTION TO PROTECT LIFE AND
PROPERTY.

DEVELOPING

BE SAFE!
PRAYERS FROM THE COAL REGION ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE PEOPLE I KNOW IN THIS VERY AREA..

Mid Winter storms.. bizarre mid-winter storms

This is mid winter (or it is supposed to be), but climate did not get the memo. The NWS is watching not 1 but 2 lows that have hurricane force winds in the NORTH ATLANTIC.. 

And a storm developing off the British Isles..  

How many freak storms will we get until we realize something is ‘up’ .. ? 

But remember. Earth changes are NOT happening. Tell yourself that one a few times and try not to laugh.

This is about the time of January 11.. It looks like a big storm on the East Coast with lots of rocking and rolling.

Cold air may be needed to make it snow.. But either way something big will be happening.

HAPPY EASTER!!

Christmas records are right now, as I type this, being shattered in 2015..

Christmas Eve 1955 Was Much Warmer

Yes it has been warm before.
And it is this year.

Enjoy a Heat Miser. You never know when the next really white Christmas will be.

In Irving Berlin’s 1954 musical “White Christmas” – the story line was 70 degrees in Vermont on Christmas eve and no snow. That was why they were “Dreaming of a White Christmas”

Christmas Eve 1955 Was Much Warmer

SCARY CHRISTMAS!!

The live temperature map this Christmas eve looks more like Easter than December..

Christmas Eve horror and hell: Deadly tornadoes sweep through Midwest and Southeast.. 7 confirmed dead..

This is weather for spring time days.. not Christmas Eve..

But this is the year, as the AP reports here, the weather has changed and everything is upside down.

Warmest Christmas Eve on record to unfold across eastern US

Wear shorts and a bathing suit caroling this year.. No snow for Santa. Warmth is about to break records ..

Warmest Christmas Eve on record to unfold across eastern US

It’s beginning to look a lot like summer, just in time for Santa..

Seriously. This will be the temperature map around Christmas.. 70 in DC.. widespread 50s and 60s. No snow, no chance of reindeer tracks.. no need for a sleigh.. 

No ice skating.. No nostalgic Christmas feeling. Instead you may get a hint of a notion to try to find Easter eggs and wear a bonnet.

The Heat Miser victorious in ‘15..

This from Accuweather forecaster Henry Margusity.. January could be the end of El Niño?!
I still have doubts .. Other forecasters do too.. But weather is patterns and numbers. And if these numbers aren’t lying the warmth will not be lasting all winter.

This is the map (if you can read it) of a massive storm in the Pacific Ocean right now, Saturday December 5 2015..

OPC 09Z wind/wave analysis & 0930Z GOES-W infrared satellite image. The Eastern Pacific remains active w/seas up to 38 feet as a result of a storm force low (winds ≥ 48 knots) in the region.  

Saturday night's alright for parallel universes

Saturday night’s alright for parallel universes

This has been making the rounds across the ‘socials’ over the past several days.. I figured why not give some air time to the strange photo on the HORROR REPORT as well.. What are you are seeing here is, to some at least, am image of a parallel universe in China: It appears to be a photo of a floating city in the sky above the nation.. It was a screen capture from a now very widely viewed YOUTUBE…

Just when you thought it was Armageddon, someone comes around and ruins it for you

Just when you thought it was Armageddon, someone comes around and ruins it for you

Call them the anti Debbie Downers.. a group has released findings that they say conclusively shows natural disasters are at a 10-year-low. But South Carolina flooding? But California drought? But.. But … The executive summary from AON said that 2014 was a below average year for catastrophe.. That doesn’t mean awful stuff did not happen, but on a pure number, it was less than other years when…

Water wars coming. The next crime wave is predicted

I recall a documentary I saw back in the late 1990s, it was some sort of bad TV special--bad in acting and producing--that predicted what the next fifty or so years of life may be like. Some talked about Nostrodamus, others just predicted based off of scientific research. One particular thing stuck in my mind: The possibility of 'waters wars,' with shortages and droughts people would be forced to fight and become adversaries just for a drop of liquid.

Massive eerie sandstorm covers Dubai.. Some are comparing the visual aftermath of the natural event to the surface of Mars..

Some of the photos are amazing..

Good morning. A view from my jeep window.. supposedly in spring.

It may not happen but it’s sure worth seeing. If this particular weather model run from yesterday proves true, it will be a white Easter with a potential blizzard along the East Coast..

Yes, you read that right.

Not much confidence is in the model at this point.. but April is still a time when snow could fall—never discount the chance of it occurring by fluke.. April showers.. rain or snow. Hopefully May flowers will follow.

Much-needed aid arrives in cyclone-devastated Vanuatu

The situation on the island is dire—food and water and shelter are all gone for a population quickly ravaged by the storm.  Ten are reported dead.. there are hints and suggestions that the number will rise as time goes on.  One pilot who was forced to land in Tanna described pure devastation, with entire communities simply flattened.

Many officials and also world citizens are relying heavily on social media to see just how bad things are—the world has been reading Tweets and other citizen reporting from the ground where the storm struck.. One Tweet described a 21-year-old sheltering a 1 week old baby even as the roof was ripped off by Cyclone PAM.. 

And that is how natural disasters work. They come quick, they leave fast. They leave misery in the wake.. And deaths. Injuries, but also little quips and anecdotes of miracles that seem to keep humanity hopeful just enough to clean up until the next disaster..
