The Ice Age Cometh! Forget Global Warming!

Meteorologists have run out of names for cyclones (storms and hurricanes) in the Atlantic.

News (in Russian) - Второй раз за всю историю наблюдений закончились имена для циклонов
BQN5HLHI2JH2NELPPXZUSTKNRE-640x474.jpeg


Southeast of Cape Verde, the 21st storm of the season formed, which was given the last name on the list - "Wilfred".
Storms are now given names based on the letters of the Greek alphabet (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, etc.). The 22nd and 23rd cyclones have already received the names "Alpha" (in Portugal) and "Beta" (in the Gulf of Mexico).
This happens only for the second time in history, the first was in 2005, when 6 letters of the Greek alphabet were used.
WMO uses 6 lists of male and female names, which are in alphabetical order. If a storm brings severe destruction, then its name is no longer used. Name lists include 21 letters, not 26, since it is difficult to choose 6 names for 6 lists that start with the Latin letters Q, U, X, Y and Z. Names meet certain conditions - they are recognizable, there is also a balance between English, Spanish and French names.
At the same time, the name by the letter of the Greek alphabet is not excluded from the list in the event of especially destructive consequences, since they are not used often enough.

P.S. Thus, in this 2020 we ALREADY have 23 cyclones and before the 2005 "record" (Hurricane Katrina was this year), there are very few cyclones of 27.
Wikipedia gives graphs according to which the peak of cyclones occurs in September-October. The most unpleasant months are yet to come.

The British edition of the Financial Times recently published positive reviews for two books that contradict part of the global warming narrative. Such a stance is unusual for the MSM who have been supporting the Global Warming agenda for decades.

Now, the question is why did the FT publish these two positive reviews? Is it just to maintain a veneer of balance, while 99% of the published articles are pro-warming and 1% disagree with this narrative? Is it because, as suggested by the article below, FT realizes that a pro-warming editorial line hurts its readership numbers? Is it the beginning of a change of the MSM narrative concerning the climate? Is it because those two books don't really address the core issues of the warming narrative - from the review below, one book deals with the polar bears population numbers and the other one dismisses any apocalyptic outcome?

It's difficult to say at this point. I guess future will tell.

British FT Positive Review for Two Climate Skeptic Books

September 18, 2020

Guest essay by Eric Worrall
The British Financial Times, like most British mainstream media, normally takes a radical green pro climate action stance. So it is a pleasant change to see the FT arguing against accepting every wild climate claim at face value.
Are cooler heads needed on climate change?
Two controversial authors take aim at the scare stories — and puncture a few myths on the way.

There was a time not long ago when one of the visual metaphors of choice for our planet’s sombre future was a sad looking polar bear standing on a fast-diminishing ice floe. As carbon emissions belched into the atmosphere, rising temperatures were devouring the bears’ icy habitat and threatening their starvation.

Yet there was something wrong with this picture. There was no real evidence that polar bear numbers were collapsing. According to estimates compiled by the Polar Bear Specialist Group, part of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, bear numbers have actually been going up — from roughly 15,000 in 1970 to about 26,500 today.
It’s a fallacy explored by Bjorn Lomborg in his book, False Alarm. The main threat to polar bears was not changing climate, he claims, but (now curbed) wild hunting. “If we want to protect [polar bears], rather than dramatically reducing carbon dioxide emissions to try to tweak temperatures over many decades with a clearly uncertain impact . . . our first step should be to stop shooting them,” he writes.
Lomborg’s is one of two books that set out to challenge what one might call “climate miserabilism”. The other is Apocalypse Never by Michael Shellenberger, an American environmentalist turned pro-nuclear campaigner. They explore the way in which climate policy is increasingly shaped by emotive, alarmist and sometimes misleading messages.

Many will take issue with some of the detailed arguments. Is the Paris agreement really as expensive as Lomborg says? Are extreme weather events really the phantoms that both authors claim?
But these books provide a corrective to many of the green assumptions that dominate the media. And if they make the world a little more questioning of the next polar bear story, that is no bad thing.
The books covered by the FT review are False Alarm by Bjorn Lomborg and Apocalypse Never by Michael Shellenberger.
I don’t want to get too excited. Even The Guardian occasionally publishes stories which contradict their usual green narratives. But just maybe FT is starting to notice that some of their audience is getting fed up with reading a constant stream of tired green negativity, day after day.
 
About 15cm of snow fell in Kyrgyzstan.

On the night of September 18, snow fell in Talas region of Kyrgyzstan, said district governor Zamir Sydykov.

Local authorities and farmers estimate the area under snow-covered crops.

Pastoralists managed to drive cattle out of pastures. However, the harvest remained untilled. In rural municipalities, damage is assessed.

Snow cover reached 10-15 cm in some places. There were traffic jams.

Tropical Storm Beta Makes Landfall On Texas - The Sun Awakens - Climate Fraud Exposed - LIA Science
Premiered Sep 22, 2020

Strong agitation and return of the #neige at the end of the week #pyrenees early episode in sight https://meteopyrenees.fr/actualites/%e2


A change of weather is approaching that will take us directly to autumn days, with highs of 20 ºC, snow and winds. we tell you https://bit.ly/32RHuS8#ElTempsTV3
 
Recently a sudden and potentially unprecedented mass die-off of migratory birds occurred in New Mexico and elsewhere, which appeared to have killed hundreds of thousands of birds, and perhaps even millions, scientists estimate according to Science Alert.


The article mentions the recent 'cold spell' but focuses mainly on the West Coast wildfires as a cause due to smoke inhalation and smoke which could have forced the birds to change their migratory routes, which in itself might have exhausted the birds.

However, in this article from Electroverse, researchers at the University of New Mexico think the birds died of starvation due to the record-cold and snow.

Researchers at the University of New Mexico believe it was the RECORD COLD WEATHER that caused the hundreds of thousands of birds to fall from the NM skies earlier this month, due to a lack off edible insects and hypothermia.

For weeks social media was ablaze with speculation and theories, and it being social media, one cause was permitted to take-flight: the California wildfires. However, objective science has now spoken and, as usual, it completely contradicts the mainstream narrative.

According to UNM Ornithology PhD students Jenna McCullough and Nick Vinciguerra, who were busy collecting samples around the Sandia Mountains while the parrots on SM were blindly tweeting #climatebreakdown!, the historic Arctic front that rode anomalously-far south on the back of a meridional jet stream flow was the primary cause of the deaths.

For sure there seems a "veneer" approach, yet it makes me think of the C's on overlapping camps (not those words exactly - think it was more in line with circles). Without searching the exact words, they are overlapping and yet at odds with each other in terms of outcomes, and when to pull the trigger (or not to pull any trigger). We see that camp A did just that this past spring under the guise of covid, under the already established programmed mechanism of AGW, and the changes they can enforce. Camp A (here described by CJ Hopkins as 'GloboCap') may result in camp B having further losses (obvious this has/is happening), and camp B (not perfect) does not appreciate it, a camp with their own ideas - and perhaps some shared societal ideas of a better nature. Then there is the possibility of a camp C that may yet align with camp B, and both may be closer to the people.

Reading old history from three hundred years ago, the printing presses operated to attack or defend differing positions (of course this has been a constant); in the interests of political/economic camps, and sometimes it was done in creative ways against those with wishful thinking aligned against the people, and carefully done over time with a final chapter outside their initial 'veneer' (to use your word again) that people could no longer ignore having captured their sensibilities (also factoring their wallets and stomachs). Back then, the oligarchs survived or they were semi-defeated by the pen, the tower and bars - and worse, with the traditional public's loud voices taking over the charge. With the way things are going, camp A will have a harder time defending their AGW leaning Tower of Pisa, let alone their covid-fizzle that anyone who can read a graph can see, and then there are their designs for our electronic bondage (perhaps the capstone of their tunnel vision of utopia) that appeals to some, rejected by many. Thus, they can only enforce for so long (while causing a lot of damage in the interim) until the pendulum again moves the other way. Unfortunately, the stack is loaded, and a lot of powerful people have taken a knee.

Looking back into history, and one might think it does not change, it is not just one or the other in camps, there are the anti-oligarch oligarchs, the anti-imperialist imperialists (or monarchists et cetera). One might say there are anti-banker bankers, the anti-democrat democrats, the anti-republican republicans, just as there are the anti-journalist journalists and anti-globalist globalists caught where they are, so nothing is ever clear or settled - jockeying for positions in their overlapping and opposite ways - switching alliances (both STS and STO driven).

One never knows what can happen.

Back to polar bears in the FT article you quote, Pierre, noted Bjorn Lomborg in his book had said:

“If we want to protect [polar bears], rather than dramatically reducing carbon dioxide emissions to try to tweak temperatures over many decades with a clearly uncertain impact . . . our first step should be to stop shooting them”.

Can appreciate him dispelling one fallacy of the AGW crowd, yet he inserts another that does not make much sense in terms of the population reference (the reality of the arctic) and stopping the hunting of them, which is limited anyway, with the exception of the Inuit who do not harvest for food and clothing and who have quotas and may face deductions for when they kill them in self-defense (that is a problem for them - attacks on their communities from growing poplar bear populations):

For management purposes, there are 19 subpopulations of polar bears across the circumpolar world. Of those, 12 subpopulations are located mostly in Nunavut, though some overlap with other jurisdictions.
[...]
Charlie Inuaraq called on NTI and the GN to promote Inuit knowledge of polar bear management, saying news reports should include the perspectives of Inuit as well as scientists.

“Put the news out about what we do,” he said. “It’s misleading.”

He called it “bothersome” to have researchers come into his community for short periods of time, and then dictate to residents how many bears can be hunted.

They take their research over our traditional knowledge,” he said.

Qikiqtarjuaq HTO representative Loasie Alikalaqtuq said Inuit subsistence hunting is a right.

“It’s what I eat and what I use for clothing,” he said.

But we pay respect to the animals,” he said. “The polar bear is an intelligent, complicated, thinking species.”

It will be interesting to see who, if any, follows suit in the publishing world and the strength of their direction. Perhaps these cracks will open up to more balance, yet at this point some shocking outside intervention will be required before people start to take real notice.
 
NORTH JET STREAM: MASSIVE DECAY OF THE NORTHERN JETs
23 September 2020
Regarding the ice melt in the Arctic ... now you can see on the jet stream that a fragment regulates the heat and cold precisely in this polar region - a very strongly charged jet fragment that moves the Polar Vortex with its atmospheric cold air currents over the eastern 60th parallel chases - the result: extreme, sometimes local weather aberrations! - I recommend everyone to put on their winter tires very soon - the weather will be unpredictable and extreme!

Two recent articles on the Mini Ice Age from Electroverse:

“EARTH IS ABOUT TO ENTER A MINI ICE AGE” — ROBERT FELIX

Robert W Felix, author of “Not by Fire but by Ice” and proprietor of iceagenow.info, has written a great article entitled “Earth about to enter Mini Ice Age” — below is my abridged version.

I’ve been saying this for years, begins Felix, but now we’re starting to hear it from the mainstream media. As power-hungry politicians ramp up their man-made global warming propaganda, some scientists warn that a far different type of climate change is headed our way.

We should be bracing for a prolonged solar minimum that could last for decades, until the 2050s, is the stark advice coming from Valentina Zharkova, professor at Northumbria University in Newcastle, England.

"The Sun is approaching a hibernation period," says Zharkova, who holds a BSc/MSc in Applied Mathematics and Astronomy, and a Ph.D. in Astrophysics: "Less sunspots will be formed on the solar surface and thus less energy and radiation will be emitted towards the planets and the Earth."

This could cause global temperatures to drop by one degree Celsius, warns Zharkova-and while a 1C drop may sound insignificant, it is more than enough to trigger a slowdown in agricultural production: "This would dramatically effect food harvests in middle latitudes, because the vegetables and fruits will not have enough time for harvesting," explains Zharkova.

These shorter growing seasons might mean empty supermarket shelves and even famine: "It could lead to a food deficit for people and animals, as we have seen in the past couple of years when the snow in Spain and Greece in April and May demolished the veggie fields, and the UK had a deficit of broccoli, and other fruits and veggies." Zharkova also points to the recent unusual chills in Canada and Iceland as evidence of the Grand Solar Minimum already taking hold, and she concludes by saying "we can only hope that the mini ice age will not be as severe as it was during the Maunder minimum" (a climatic 'event' which brought about crop failure, starvation, disease, social unrest, and the untimely deaths of millions upon millions of people).

The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING, in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow. Both NOAA and NASA appear to agree, if you read between the lines, with NOAA saying we're entering a 'full-blown' Grand Solar Minimum in the late-2020s, and NASA seeing this upcoming solar cycle (25) as "the weakest of the past 200 years", with the agency correlating previous solar shutdowns to prolonged periods of global cooling here.

“We are plunging now into a deep mini ice age,” says British astrophysicist Piers Corbyn, “and there is no way out”.


For the next 20 years it’s going to get colder and colder, on average, says Corbyn who holds a B.Sc. in Physics and an M.Sc. in Astrophysics. The jet stream will be wilder: there will be more wild temperature changes, more hail events, more earthquakes, more extreme volcano events, more snow in winters, lousy summers, late springs, short autumns, and more and more crop failures.

“The fact is the sun rules the sea temperature, and the sea temperature rules the climate,” explains Corbyn.

“What we have happening now is the start of the mini ice age … it began around 2013. It’s a slow start, and now the rate of moving into the mini ice age is accelerating.


LITTLE ICE AGE TRIGGERED BY ARCTIC SEA ICE

image_8865e-Little-Ice-Age.jpg


The Little Ice Age (LIA) was triggered by a large outflow of sea ice from the Arctic Ocean into the North Atlantic, according to the findings of a new paper published in the journal Science Advances.

The paper combines marine sediment cores drilled from the ocean floor from the Arctic Ocean to the North Atlantic, and what these records indicate is an abrupt increase in Arctic sea ice and cold waters exported to the North Atlantic starting around 1300, peaking in mid-century, and ending abruptly in the late 1300s.

Crucially, the provocative paper concludes that external forcing from volcanoes or any other cause may not be necessary for large swings in climate to occur — a previously widely held assumption: “These results strongly suggest that these things can occur out of the blue due to internal variability in the climate system,” said Dr. Martin Miles, researcher in the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research at the University of Colorado. But the marine cores do also show a sustained, far-flung pulse of sea ice near the Norse colonies on Greenland, an event which coincided with their demise in the 15th century; a cooling climate is thought to have pushed hard on their resilience.

Today, it is feared a similar event may be about to occur.

“We are waiting for a huge burst of cold water to be released from the Beaufort Gyre,” says David Mauriello of the ORP, a release which is is long overdue with the gyre having circulated in-place far longer than is normal. “And when it does this,” continues Mauriello, “it will potentially shut down the Gulf Stream.”

barents-gyre-beaufort-labrador-current-circuits.jpg

The Beaufort Gyre has been circulating in-place for far longer than is normal. When it finally lets-up, cold water will outflow into the Atlantic, potentially disrupting/shutting-down the Gulf Stream.

gulf-stream.jpg

The Gulf Stream is key to Europe having the mild, habitable climate that it does.


A shutting down of the Gulf Stream will lead to cold Arctic-like conditions invading Western Europe almost overnight, concludes Mauriello, with Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia at the forefront of the blast.

However, it must be stressed that these processes and mechanisms remain poorly understood–but then so do the majority of subjects within the field of climate science: this reality makes the purported 100% confidence and consensus around the impact a trace gas such as CO2 can have on global temperatures even more absurd. Again, that Michael Crichton quote rings true: “Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.” And for those out there crying ‘but Crichton’ isn’t a scientist’: 1) err, he brought dinosaurs back to life, and 2) fine, you got me, so I’ll included astrophysicist Piers Corbyn’s views on CO2 instead. So, to conclude: “Carbon dioxide levels do not have any impact –I repeat, any impact– on climate,” states Corbyn, “the CO2 theory is wrong from the start.”
 
It seems that starting today a Cyclone coming from the Atlantic will hit Italy with strong winds till 120 km/h in the south and very low temperatures in the North, in some northern regions the temperatures will drop till 3-4 C° during the night which is highly unusual for this time of the year.

I must say that this is the first time I experience such low temperatures for this time of the year. Could it be a sign of what it may come this winter? Like a pretty harsh winter that will give chills to many? Will see.
 
"Robert Felix, a former architect, became interested in the ice-age cycle back in 1991 and has been researching and writing about the possibility of a coming ice age ever since. In the first half, he argued that we are seeing the beginnings of a mini-ice age, which several astrophysicists have also recently concluded, he noted. This cycle may be similar to what happened in the 1600s when the sun had no sunspots. Because of the colder weather in that time frame, there were crop shortages and mass starvation. One of the initial patterns for a small ice age, he explained, is that the rainy season lasts a little longer in the spring, and starts a bit earlier in the fall. It doesn't take many weeks of that to start messing with the food supply, he warned.

Among the signs of unusually early cold weather, he cited the following events from Sept. 9-12th: a surprise winter storm dropping 17 inches of snow in Wyoming, Kansas City setting a new cold record, Denver recording its earliest ever freeze, and Midland, Texas hitting a new cold record that was 14 degrees colder than the previous one. Additionally, many glaciers are advancing, such as in the Western Himalayas, including Mount Everest, he reported. During a mini-ice age, the jet stream will change, and we'll actually see sea levels drop significantly, Felix said. Increased underwater volcanic activity is heating up the oceans, he added, yet above ground volcanoes are also more active, which puts more ash in the sky and contributes to the cooling effect."
