TxGal, thanks for posting this. I think I may listen to this one a second time.

I'm still not convinced anything will grow outside any more. At least not here where I live and maybe not for a few years. While I realize that there can be good years along with bad ones in a GSM I also realized I might be totally wrong about difficult gardening. Right now I'm trying to figure out how I can make better use of my greenhouse space so I can grow much more in it than I ever have before now. So far I'm planning to move my few remaining flowers to big pots that I can move around. This will free up a lot of the big growing containers so I can grow food in them. I can plant things like strawberries in smaller pots that can be kept on makeshift shelves, and this will create more growing space, too.

Lots of head-scratching still to do before planting time!

You're welcome! While coming back from the Dr's yesterday we spotted a garden about 15 mts from our place, and it looked great! Cabbage, collards, not sure what all else, winter crops I'm sure. I haven't seen a garden look that good in about 3 years. It is the only one I've seen here in winter in several years. I think most everyone has given up, at least for now.

Puzzling 'crunch' in Earth's magnetic field produces new type of aurora borealis
Nathan Howes
Digital Reporter
The Weather Network

Tuesday, December 31st 2019, 11:59 am - The discovery was made by a physics student, who is interning with NASA
An unusual 'crunch' in the planet's magnetic field has led to the discovery of a new type of aurora borealis.

Jennifer Briggs, a physics student at Pepperdine University, recently found the new aurora classification in three-year-old video footage of the Arctic sky, with help from NASA scientists and a satellite. She was able correlate the strange aurora with a sudden retreat in Earth's magnetic field -- the first time scientists have witnessed the northern lights caused only by a compression of the field.

Typically auroras stream across the sky when a lot of high-energy particles from the sun, known as solar wind, swamp over Earth. But in this instance, there were no solar eruptions that would have caused the magnetic field to suddenly crunch inward.

DISCOVERY CAN'T EXPLAIN THE 'CRUNCH'

Researchers are unable to explain why this magnetic crunch happened, but it may have been from an "unprecedented storm" in the area where Earth's magnetic field meets particles from the sun. To add more to the mystery, no one knows the source of the storm or why it forced Earth's magnetic field to decrease in size so suddenly and rapidly.

"This motion is something that we've never seen before," Briggs said in a recent press conference . "This eastward and then westward and then spiraling motion is not something that we've ever seen, not something we currently understand."

When this aurora occurred, a NASA satellite located a sizable condensing in Earth's magnetosphere the moment the lights started to spiral. In under two minutes, the edge of the magnetosphere moved beyond the satellite, toward Earth's surface, shifting by about 25,000 kilometres, according to Briggs --four times the planet's radius.

To put this into perspective, it would take a commercial jet about 27 hours to fly that distance.

"You can imagine someone punching Earth's magnetic field," Briggs said. "There was a massive, but localized compression."
The bright and colourful lights that an aurora displays are a result of collisions between electrically-charged particles from the sun and gases in Earth's atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen.

Normally, Earth's magnetic field diverts these charged particles, but it is weaker at the planet's poles. This allows for some particles to sneak through, creating the aurora borealis near the North Pole and the aurora australis adjacent to the South Pole.

Although northern lights are picturesque, the sudden dash of charged particles can interupt electronic communications, confuse GPS, move satellites out of orbit, endanger astronauts and even eliminate power grids if the eruption is large enough.

Dupe, I think....something weird is happening with my post...

Martinhouse, I thought he was going to do an extended version of the podcast before this one, I guess not!

There's a blank up there from me...I have no idea

TxGal, from what I could gather, this IAF show tonight was his first attempt at live-streaming and he's maybe using something other than Google? Not certain, though, and I'm pretty confused with it all.

I have no clue what that involves but it was fun to see him in his greenhouse. It was funny when a frog in there started making noise. Another time he tossed a comment over his shoulder about how frog legs are good. I think after he reviews this show and sees how he needs to polish his presentation a bit, we'll be able to get nearly as much from this new way as from the old way. I won't be able to listen to the shows live, but I don't mind waiting for them. I just hope he doesn't put them someplace that I can't get to.

One thing that I got from this latest one is that I wish I still had rabbits.

I'll be interested in what you think of his new type of show. And I do hope he is still working on that expanded show that he said would follow a brief report that he put on Twitter.

I don't post often, but I read this thread several times a day and watch all the pod casts.

This has prompted me to think about the possibility of food rationing. I wonder what it would look like. Would it be like the war years? What foods would they ration? How much would they allow us to purchase?
My thinking is that our familiy rations would be on an EBT type card that would allow us to buy a certain amout of certain types of products each week, much like in WWII. Obviously I wasn't around then, but talking to family members who were, I get nothing. They all were farmers, so nothing much changed for them. They were dirt poor when the depression hit, so they never even noticed it. Rationing wasn't something that bothered them because a trip to the grocery store was something that happend a few times a year and they didn't go.

Have any of you thought along these lines? If so, what are your thoughts?

I've thought a lot about it and since there aren't many things I'm able to eat any more, I've decided I need not worry about it. It is possible to be fairly well-nourished here at my place, if anyone is interested in the hard work it would take. If they aren't they can eat weeds as far as I'm concerned.

Couple Builds Greenhouse Around Home to Stay Warm and Grow Food All Year Long2

An Adaptable, Light-Filled Home.
The glass construction around the wooden summer house allows them to enjoy their beautiful ‘outdoor’ terrace no matter what the weather. They actually removed a part of the roof of the original house in order to create a larger area for play, rest and relaxation. They have a swing and a basketball hoop set up for their young children, and there is even enough space for the boys to ride their bicycles!
Couple Builds Greenhouse Around Home to Stay Warm and Grow Food All Year Long3

Marie speaks enthusiastically about how the greenhouse protects them from wind, rain and storms as well as keeping the cold at bay. She says that they no longer suffer from the ‘bad weather blues’ in the way that many of her neighbors do. As the interior house is so well protected from the elements, they only need to treat the wood construction with with a layer of natural linseed oil, avoiding the use of any chemical products.
Natural Temperature Regulation.
The solar energy that the house captures means that there was no need to install thick insulation, as is common practice in Sweden. As well as this, the family are no longer dependent on excessive, energy-consuming heating. They have their own store of wood and a simple wood-burning stove to provide additional heat on the very coldest winter days. Marie says that they take a “realistic” approach, and expect to put on warmer clothes on colder days, understanding that their natural home will have some natural temperature fluctuations.
Related: How to Build Your Own Solar Panels
Charles talks about how the house heats up effectively with just an hour of sunlight, and in January when outdoor temperatures can be below 32°F, their home within the glass is a comfy 59°F-68°F. In the warmer months, the glass roof has an automatic opening which releases heat when the atmosphere goes above a certain temperature. Balcony doors and windows can also be opened by hand to get the air flowing, making the house adaptable to the demands of summer too.
A Bountiful Home Harvest.
The footprint of the greenhouse is nearly double the size of the interior home, which gives plenty of space for a beautiful wrap-around garden. This allows them to make use of the greenhouse’s traditional function – that of growing plants. Charles and Marie are able to cultivate crops that would otherwise be impossible in the cool Swedish climate. They enjoy regular harvests of grapes and figs, as well as being able to extend their vegetable growing season and have success with heat-loving crops such as cucumbers and tomatoes.

A Self-Sufficient Approach.
On top of enjoying the free heat of the sun, the family have an underground rain-water catching tank that provides water for their plants. The plants also benefit from a clever composting system. Charles is an engineer by training, so the family have urine separating toilets connected to a completely natural, home-designed system with various tanks as well as gray water beds that filter and clean their waste and provide a fertile home for more plants. An outdoor pond provides a final resting place for any residues that can’t be used within the home, and this also provides extra nourishment for some fruit trees.

In the future, Marie and Charles intend to design further ways of capturing the spare solar energy generated in the summer and storing it for use in the winter.
Take a look for yourself and be inspired by what is possible with a little bit of creative thinking!

I really don't know about being able to grow outside anymore as we still do grow some outside, but they are all in specialty planters and not in the ground.

BUT

I can tell you, as we have been specializing in peppers, that the quality of heirloom seeds and plants has gone to the birds the last 5 years. Yes, they still germinate, but they don't seem to last more often than not.

For example, we planted 4 Tabasco pepper plants from the same heirloom lot at the same time in the same planter. One is doing great. One is doing okay and the other two are either dead or they might as well be dead.

By great, I mean it is growing in the normal pattern we are accustomed to. After 60 days, they are about 3 feet tall. The one doing okay is only about 18 inches tall.

Things are just not growing like they used to grow.

That's what many of us have been finding, just not sure exactly why. Interesting about the seeds, I was quick to blame the weird weather....but it could also be that the weird weather/environmental changes are affecting the seeds, too, which we then plant and find we're getting terrible results. Cripes!!

I've been thinking on your post a while...much to consider there. I have to agree with you, though. I think we would see something similar to the war years and rationing. We also had family members who when through that and the Great Depression, and remember their stories well. Those that had farms got through it, food-wise, far better than others without farms.

I think one of the biggest differences would be that our society nowadays is far, far different than those way back then. We'd probably see a good amount of social disturbances, especially in the cities. Much to think about!!

One of the reasons we are trying to grow more of the perennials and keep them going year to year. The growing is getting to be hit and miss too much.

I actually think the quality control for the seeds plus mother nature is to blame. It just seems like the quality of the product is declining. Heck we all have seen the reports of poor quality seeds going to 3rd world nations and what it does to them. Could it be now bleeding over to the USA?

I really wouldn't put it past some of the big companies to send out the seeds regardless just in order to maintain profit margins.

One of the biggest changes is that even the ever-shrinking minority who are farmers won't be any better off- they *could* be, as they at least have access to land, machinery and fertilizer. But almost NO non-Amish farmers in our area have so much as a tomato plant growing. Most of the dairy farmers BUY MILK at the store (!!!), and I've run into a couple of the more vocal (about the "farm lifestyle" benefits) small farmers at Sam's club buying frozen beef patties... one looked embarrassed and explained that she "doesn't have time" to make hamburgers out of their own frozen ground beef!

For that matter, our Amish neighbors buy a LOT of their foods... a truck from a restaurant supply store comes around the community once a month or so, and they buy flour, sugar, pasta...

Most raise their own vegetables, and have a family milk cow. None that I know of make cheese... And many of them buy the cheapest margarine they can find rather than making their own butter. And when I once got a neighbor to help bind my winter wheat and then run it through the threshing machine, he wanted to know what I wanted wheat for... I told him I grind it into flour and use it for bread and baking... he didn't know you could do that!

I actually worry for them, because if food does get scarce, way too many people are likely to show up, "requesting" help from the Amish... Most of whom aren't much better off...

Yes, I have also heard that "Those that had farms got through it, food-wise, far better than others without farms."

And I have also heard that " I think one of the biggest differences would be that our society nowadays is far, far different than those way back then. We'd probably see a good amount of social disturbances, especially in the cities"

Well, as much as I often say I try to avoid listening to Oppenheimer's podcasts (because of the loudness, etc.), the podcast in post 7255 is probably the best, most serious - and most worrisome - I've ever heard from him.

Just wow....

I've never heard him before. His message does indeed seem compelling.

New type of auroara

January 2, 2020 by Robert

NASA intern Jennifer Briggs discovered a new type of aurora in 3-year-old video footage of the Arctic sky.

Scientists connected the never-before-seen aurora to a sudden retreat, or compression, in Earth’s magnetic field, the first time scientists have seen an aurora caused solely by such a compression.
Aurora-borealis-15Sep2017-NASA-768x576.jpg

Aurora borealis (northern lights) over Canada seen from the International Space Station on 15 Sep 2017 – NASA/JSC
The aurora’s bright and colorful lights are a result of collisions between electrically-charged particles from the sun (the solar wind) and gases in Earth’s atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen. Earth’s magnetic field usually deflects these charged particles, but since the field is weaker at the planet’s poles, this allows some particles sneak through, producing the aurora borealis near the North Pole and the aurora australis near the South Pole.

Researchers are unable to explain why this magnetic crunch happened or why it forced Earth’s magnetic field to decrease in size so suddenly and rapidly, but since there were no eruptions on the sun to push against the magnetic field that day, researchers think the crunch may have been caused by an “unprecedented storm” in the area where Earth’s magnetic field meets particles from the sun.

Whatever the cause, the mysterious compression produced the stunning twisting aurora in the video below, which was observed from an island in Norway.

aurora borealis

All-sky cameras in Longyearbyen, Norway, near the Arctic Circle, captured these images of an unusual spiraling aurora. Fred Sigernes/Kjell Henriksen Observatory, Longyearbyen, Norway/Joy Ng
‘Imagine someone punching Earth’s magnetic field’

When this particular aurora occurred, the edge of the magnetosphere moved toward Earth’s surface by about 25,000 km in under two minutes (more than 15,000 miles), according to Briggs. More than four times the Earth’s radius in less than two minutes!

To put this into perspective, it would take a commercial jet about 27 hours to fly that distance.

“You can imagine someone punching Earth’s magnetic field,” Briggs said. “There was a massive, but localized compression.”

Normally, Earth’s magnetic field diverts these charged particles, but it is weaker at the planet’s poles. This allows some particles to sneak through, creating the aurora borealis near the North Pole and the aurora australis adjacent to the South Pole.

The sudden dash of charged particles during an aurora borealis can interrupt electronic communications, confuse GPS, move satellites out of orbit, endanger astronauts and even eliminate power grids if the eruption is large enough.

Now let’s try to imagine what havoc a full-fledged magnetic reversal could cause.

A mysterious crunch in Earth's magnetic field created a new type of aurora borealis. A NASA intern discovered it.

Time is Ticking: with so many cycles converging, it might be time to head for the hills… but which hills?
January 3, 2020 Poppalloff

A comet the size of Jupiter will enter the inner solar system in 2022.

Conscious that time is not on their side, the Globalists are ramping up their rhetoric concerning the “Climate Crisis”, aware that both NASA and NOAA are ditching the fraudulent models they’re using at present for solar forcing ones that will scupper the CO2 narrative.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel called global warming “real” and “dangerous” in her New Year’s address, saying she will do everything in her power to ensure Germany makes a meaningful contribution to tackling it.

Which is why Greta Thunberg, a bought and paid for (by the banks and George Soros) child actress was speaking to the eugenicist, David Attenborough, on the BBC Today programme on Monday 30 December. She was pushing the propaganda aimed at legitimising the coming totalitarianism that governments will impose when the system begins to fail. Check out the shelves in your local supermarket for the signs and keep an ear to the ground regarding the machinations of the UN…

Also expect to see a major uptick in social media censorship in the coming months as the financial system begins to stall along with food production and more news emerges concerning Earth’s imminent cooling.

The “Adam and Eve Story” was deliberately sabotaged by Charles Hapgood and the CIA

Charles Hapgood, author of Earth’s Shifting Crust, intentionally mislead pole shift researchers by promoting a false narrative of slow pole shifts, which supposedly took thousands of years, when he knew full well such catastrophes happen in days. Which is definitely a “rabbit-hole” worth investigating, because Hapgood (if you read his Biography) was primarily a CIA operative, masquerading as a professor to promote and popularize a bad pole shift theory, to lure the unsuspecting away from the truth about pole shift cycles.


Chan Thomas wasn’t the first to postulate the Theory of Crustal Displacement.

Hugh Auchincloss Brown (Dec 23, 1879 –- Nov 19, 1975) was an electrical engineer best known for advancing a theory of catastrophic pole shift. Brown claimed that massive accumulation of ice at the geographical pole caused recurring tipping of the axis in cycles of approximately 4000-7500 years. Brown argued that because the earth wobbles on the axis and the crust slides on the mantle, a shift was demonstrably imminent, and suggested the use of nuclear explosions to break-up the ice to forestall such a catastrophe.

image.png


The conclusion derived from ice core analysis is that although Eastern Antarctica has been covered in ice for ages, Western Antarctica was ice free until the last pole shift just over 12,000 years ago. (Even though pole shifts repeatedly relocate the North and South Poles, the last several South Pole positions have been off the coast of what we call Greater or Eastern Antarctica, leaving the Western portion of the continent outside the Antarctic Circle until the last pole shift brought the entire continent under icy conditions by centering the continent over the pole.

Evidence that Ice Ages were Crustal Displacements


Mario Buildreps from mariobuildreps.com provides a working hypothesis based on the ice cores of Antarctica, and the orientation of hundreds of Ancient temples and monuments.

Although it’s safe to say that not all ancient buildings were oriented to an ancient geographical pole (more than 37.3% of ancient buildings do not align with the poles). The majority are, leaving an indelible message that suggests the crust has crept in an almost straight latitudinal line over the millennia; with Antarctica, strangely, remaining in a relatively fixed position.


image-1.png


“A declassified CIA document called The Adam and Eve Story has generated much controversy over predictions of an upcoming pole shift (aka crustal displacement) and catastrophic events that may sweep the planet in the not distant future. The 57-page document is based on a book authored by Chan Thomas in 1963. In it, Thomas proposed a pole shift scenario that differed in significant ways with what Charles Hapgood had earlier proposed in his pioneering 1958 book, The Earth’s Shifting Crust.

Hapgood’s theory, which was endorsed at the time by Albert Einstein, proposed that the geophysical poles periodically move by as much as up to 40 degrees through crustal displacements. This phenomenon was brought about by the increasing weight of the polar ice caps which accumulate more and more ice over the millennia until they eventually generate sufficient centrifugal force due to the planet’s rotation, to make the crust move over the mantle as Einstein explained in the book’s foreword.

In The Adam and Eve Story, Chan proposed that the pole shift was much greater, as much as 90 degrees with the poles shifting into the equatorial zone in less than a day.

Could this be one of those rare occasions when Myth, Legend, Religion and Science all collide to reveal the truth?

On September 23, 2017 the sun was in the zodiac constellation Virgo — “a woman clothed with the sun”. The moon was at the feet of Virgo — “with the moon under her feet”. The ‘nine’ stars of the constellation Leo, plus three planets (Mercury, Venus, and Mars), were at the head of Virgo — “on her head a crown of 12 stars”. The planet Jupiter was in the center of Virgo, for roughly nine months prior to this date, after which it emerged, past her feet — “She was with child and wailed aloud in pain as she laboured to give birth”.


image-2.png


Jupiter is the largest of the planets, the “king” of the planets, so to speak — “She gave birth to a son, a male child, destined to rule all the nations with an iron rod”.

A momentous sign, as many Internet sources say. In fact, in only the past 1,000 years, this same arrangement in the sky has happened at least four times, in 1827, 1483, 1293, and 1056. So, this line of research might well be a “Red Herring”. However, it is a little weird how this celestial sign comes at a time when so many other phenomena are aligning.

“The stars will fall from the sky…” — Matthew 24:29.

“Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.” — Revelation 1:7.

“Is K2 the Blue Star Kachina of Hopi Prophecy?” — David Jewitt, UCLA astronomer.

In 2022, a comet the size of Jupiter will enter the inner solar system…

K2 was discovered in May 2017 by the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) in Hawaii, a survey project of NASA’s Near-Earth Object Observations Program.

Hubble’s sharp “eye” revealed the size of the nucleus to be less than 12 miles across; however, the dense gas cloud (the coma) that surrounds it is more than 10 Earth diameters across.

“We think the comet has been continuously active for at least four years,” said David Jewitt of UCLA.

“In the CFHT data, K2 had a coma already at 2 billion miles from the Sun, when it was between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune. It was already active, and I think it has been continuously active coming in. As it approaches the Sun, it’s getting warmer and warmer, and the activity is ramping up,” Jewitt said.

But, curiously, the Hubble images do not show a tail flowing from K2, which is a signature of comets.

We will be able to monitor for the first time the developing activity of a comet falling in from the Oort Cloud over an extraordinary range of distances,” Jewitt said. “It should become more and more active as it nears the Sun and presumably will form a tail.”

“In the Final days we will look up in our heavens and we will witness the return of the two brothers who helped create this world in the birthing time. Poganghoya is the guardian of our North Pole and his Brother Palongawhoya is the guardian of the South pole. In the final days, the Blue Star Kachina will come to be with his nephews and they will return the Earth to its natural rotation (which is counterclockwise)…”

Pictorial evidence to support this claim can be found carved on the walls of both Mayan and Egyptian pyramids. The rotation of the Earth has flipped many times due to the visitations of Star beings.

“The twins will be seen in our North Western skies. They will come and visit to see who still remembered the original teachings flying in their Patuwvotas or flying shields. They will bring many of their star family with them in the final days.”

As the legend goes, the return of the Blue Star Kachina, also known as Nan ga sohu, will be the alarm clock that tells us of the new day, the new way of life, and the new world that is coming. This is where the changes will begin. They will start as fires that burn within us, and we will burn up with desires and conflict if we do not remember the original teachings and return to the peaceful way of life.

Not far behind the twins will come the Purifier –The Red Kachina– who will bring the Day of Purification. On this day the Earth, her creatures and all life as we know it will change forever.

Regardless of the effects of the “Blue” Kachina, things are going to get interesting in the next few years…

Valentina Zharkova’s article confirming the next Grand Solar Minimum titled, ‘Oscillations of the baseline of solar magnetic field and solar irradiance on a millennial timescale’ in Nature. predicts the upcoming Grand Solar Minimum, similar to Maunder Minimum, which starts in 2020 and will last until 2055. The GSM cycle will again arrive in 2370 – 2415.

The upcoming grand solar minimum will last until 2055 and is a huge cause for concern. We are already witnessing increased unstable weather patterns, prolonged major floods, massive crop failures and wild swings in temperature (both up and down) among other extreme events, including high-level volcanic eruptions, suggesting NOW is the time to adapt.

Both NASA and NOAA are forecasting very low solar activity during the next solar cycle (Solar Cycle 25), in fact, the lowest in 200 years.


New-CMIP6-Data.jpg


And as for the “Red” Kachina…

The previous solar cycle (cycle 24) contained two powerful SMEs. If either had been earth-facing, they would have likely wiped out the entire electrical grid worldwide, resulting in 80+% of humanity perishing within the following few months.

Will we be as lucky during the uptick of solar cycle 25, especially when we take into consideration the waning magnetosphere due to sun’s decline in output plus our wandering magnetic poles?

David “Diamond” Mauriello from the Oppenheimer Ranch Project and Ben Davidson from SuspiciousObservers have both suggested, recently, that we are headed for a major crunch moment akin to the Bronze Age Collapse. Both believe that the fall has already begun…


image-6.png


Major Mediterranean civilizations were destroyed between the 13th-12th centuries BCE. The precise cause of this “Bronze Age Collapse” has been hotly debated by scholars for over a century along with its exact dating, but no consensus has been reached. However, what is widely accepted is that, between c. 1250 – c. 1150 BCE, major cities were destroyed, whole civilizations fell, diplomatic and trade relations were severed, writing systems vanished, and there was widespread devastation and death on a scale never experienced before.

The primary causes for the Bronze Age Collapse are:

  • Natural Catastrophes (earthquakes)
  • Climate Change (which caused drought and famine)
  • Internal Rebellions (class wars)
  • Invasions (primarily by the Sea Peoples)
  • Disruption of Trade Relations/Systems Collapse (political instability)
When the collapse had run its course, the Mediterranean people entered a “dark age” in which iron replaced bronze as the metal of choice, diplomatic and trade relations were nearly non-existent, and art, architecture, and general quality of life all suffered.

So, with so many cycles converging, it might be time to head for the hills… but which hills?

For those in Europe, the Pyrenees seem to be the best bet:

image-7.png



For those of you in the USA, the Rockies may be your best bet:


image-8.png


Stay tuned for more on the “hows” and “whys”.

So, if “Our Best Guess” timeline is correct, we have perhaps a year to find a bug-out location and relocate, after which travel restrictions will start kicking in and we could be be stuck… hence all the lies and misinformation by our politicians and the mainstream media.

But I know, I know.

Silly me.

“Shut up and pay your taxes.”

Met Office admits the UK is now Cooling

January 4, 2020 Cap Allon


The last decade in the UK went down as the ‘second’ hottest of the past 100 years, at least according to the Met Office’s temperature dataset AND this recent article from the BBC.

But taking the Met’s politicized, warm-mongering, UHI-ignoring data as read, for arguments sake, the simple fact remains: the 2010’s have come out cooler than the 2000’s — the agency may be in control of the spin, but it hasn’t been able to fudge the findings.

Dr Mark McCarthy, from the Met Office in Exeter, said it was “a consequence of our warming climate”.

That’s right, Mark — despite this most recent decade coming out cooler than the previous one, the AGW juggernaut must keep-on rolling, your funding depends on it, doesn’t it? And even in the face of such evidence to the contrary, you can’t bring yourself to stop and ask… why, or how… the 2010’s were cooler than the 2000’s?

I was told average temperatures would rise “linearly” –always up and up and up on an endless march to catastrophe if no action was taken– as depicted by Michael Mann’s now infamous Hockey Stick Graph:

1578152113837.png

Now, I can buy a year or two falling out of line — local weather patterns and natural ocean current-fluctuations etc. can explain why 2018 was cooler than 2017 and 2016, for example.

But an entire decade dropping by the wayside?

No, this appears to be evidence that the sun has had its say, that its Grand Solar MAXIMUM has run its course and that its activity is now waning, likely ushering in the onset of earth’s next cooling cycle — perhaps even the next Grand Solar MINIMUM:

Solar-Cycle-25-NASA-full.png


Furthermore, the BBC is also trying to paint 2019 as a disastrously hot year.

But the reality, again according to the Met Office’s own warm-mongering data, is that 2019 was merely the 11th warmest on record — hardly signs of an impending fiery doom.

And serving as a further indication of how hard it is for the Met to tell it’s arse from it’s elbow, I’ll leave you with this recent quote from Dr Mark McCarthy: “We are expecting to see an increase in winter rainfall, so wetter winters and drier summers — but we could still experience dry winters and wet summers.”

Bases covered — the AGW juggernaut is safe to roll-on for at least another decade.


Or is it…


GSM-and-Sunspots.png


…natural climate cycles can scupper even the best-laid frauds.

And as the lower-latitudes continue to refreeze, as depicted by the below Total Snow Mass for the Northern Hemisphere chart, a period of GSM-induced global cooling is likely that natural climate cycle.

Potato seeds need to be started indoors and transplanted 6-8 weeks later, like tomatoes. Given how many potatoes we grow around here, that never made any sense to me.

BUT... I could see at least experimenting with them to see if they grow *and produce* well in your climate and soil. I'd also want to know if you can then plant the tubers the next spring, and/or whether you can save seeds ftom the plants and if they breed true.

Puzzling 'crunch' in Earth's magnetic field produces new type of aurora borealis
Nathan Howes
Digital Reporter
The Weather Network

Tuesday, December 31st 2019, 11:59 am - The discovery was made by a physics student, who is interning with NASA
An unusual 'crunch' in the planet's magnetic field has led to the discovery of a new type of aurora borealis.

Jennifer Briggs, a physics student at Pepperdine University, recently found the new aurora classification in three-year-old video footage of the Arctic sky, with help from NASA scientists and a satellite. She was able correlate the strange aurora with a sudden retreat in Earth's magnetic field -- the first time scientists have witnessed the northern lights caused only by a compression of the field.

Typically auroras stream across the sky when a lot of high-energy particles from the sun, known as solar wind, swamp over Earth. But in this instance, there were no solar eruptions that would have caused the magnetic field to suddenly crunch inward.

DISCOVERY CAN'T EXPLAIN THE 'CRUNCH'

Researchers are unable to explain why this magnetic crunch happened, but it may have been from an "unprecedented storm" in the area where Earth's magnetic field meets particles from the sun. To add more to the mystery, no one knows the source of the storm or why it forced Earth's magnetic field to decrease in size so suddenly and rapidly.

"This motion is something that we've never seen before," Briggs said in a recent press conference . "This eastward and then westward and then spiraling motion is not something that we've ever seen, not something we currently understand."

When this aurora occurred, a NASA satellite located a sizable condensing in Earth's magnetosphere the moment the lights started to spiral. In under two minutes, the edge of the magnetosphere moved beyond the satellite, toward Earth's surface, shifting by about 25,000 kilometres, according to Briggs --four times the planet's radius.

To put this into perspective, it would take a commercial jet about 27 hours to fly that distance.

"You can imagine someone punching Earth's magnetic field," Briggs said. "There was a massive, but localized compression."
The bright and colourful lights that an aurora displays are a result of collisions between electrically-charged particles from the sun and gases in Earth's atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen.

Normally, Earth's magnetic field diverts these charged particles, but it is weaker at the planet's poles. This allows for some particles to sneak through, creating the aurora borealis near the North Pole and the aurora australis adjacent to the South Pole.

Although northern lights are picturesque, the sudden dash of charged particles can interupt electronic communications, confuse GPS, move satellites out of orbit, endanger astronauts and even eliminate power grids if the eruption is large enough.

Hmmm, sounds like this might have something to do with the recently discovered activity in the molten outer core moving vigorously around our Plsnet’s solid cure. Apparently it’s having all sorts of effective with weird zones on the surface , such as the one that used to be restricted to the eastern side of South America in the Atlantic up to the Caribbean (if I remember right). I think it was a zone that had too hsve orbiting satellites switched off while they were crossing it. I watched something on it quite a while ago, so sorry I can’t remember much else. There was some speculation that the unusual amount of activity in this molten high speed flow area, may indicate an approaching Pole Shift. If I come across the discussion again, I’ll post a link.

Electricity surges through the soil of Norway

January 7, 2020 Cap Allon


As originally reported by spaceweather.com yesterday, January 6th, something unexpected happened in the soil of northern Norway.

“Electrical currents started flowing,” reported Rob Stammes, who monitors ground currents at the Polarlightcenter geophysical observatory in Lofoten–an archipelago in NW Norway.

This chart recording shows the sudden surge at around 19:30 UTC:


Rob-Stammes-Magnetic-shockwave_1578349087_strip.png



“It seemed to be some kind of shockwave,” said Stammes. “My instruments detected a sudden, strong variation in both ground currents and our local magnetic field. It really was a surprise.”

NASA’s ACE spacecraft detected something as well.

Approximately 15 minutes before the disturbance in Norway, the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) near Earth abruptly swung around 180 degrees, and the solar wind density jumped more than 5-fold.

Earth may have crossed through a fold in the heliospheric current sheet–a giant, wavy membrane of electrical current rippling through the solar system, writes Dr. Tony Phillips. Such crossings can cause these kind of effects.

And while currents flowed through the ground, stunning auroras filled the sky.

Rayann Elzein photographed the corresponding outburst of lights from Utsjoki, Finland:


Rayann-Elzein-2001062145_RE5_5043_1578349506_strip.jpg


The auroras weren’t visible in northern Norway because of the thick cloud cover.

“We had to be satisfied with the electricity underfoot,” said Stammes.


Why does electricity flow through the ground during a geomagnetic storm?

It’s basic physics, according to Dr. Phillips.

Changing magnetic fields cause currents to flow in wires and other conductors. And in most places, soil can conduct electricity due to the presence of dissolved salts and minerals. So when the local magnetic field begins to vibrate, electricity naturally begins to flow. Currents induced by geomagnetic storms can cause voltage fluctuations in power systems and, in extreme cases, complete blackouts.

However, what’s odd about yesterday’s event in Norway is that there was limited geomagnetic activity at the time, the KP index never climbed above 4 (or G0):


swx-overview-small.gif

Our universe is electromagnetic, and earth’s magnetosphere is waning -fast- in line with historically low solar activity and an ongoing magnetic excursion/reversal — ‘space weather’ events that would have ordinarily passed by unnoticed are having an increasingly-bigger impact here on the ground.

Our modern grid-dependent civilization is entering uncertain times.

Stay tuned for updates.
