    Carol, I did not imagine today, in the morning, that the wind and cold weather was causing so great problems in the northern hemisphere, and here, in the south too,

    Ventos de 61 km/h atingem a Grande Florianópolis na manhã desta ...
    Zero Hora - nove horas atrás
    A segunda-feira ainda amanhece chuvosa na maioria das regiões de Santa Catarina. Mas no decorrer do dia, a instabilidade afasta-se para o Sudeste do País, ...

    Chuva: agricultor morre ao ser levado por correnteza em SC
    Terra Brasil - ‎há 2 horas‎
    A chuva forte ainda trouxe ventos de 78 km/h no litoral catarinense na manhã de domingo. Na capital Florianópolis, as rajadas superaram os 60 km/h. ...

    My tongue has pasted the post - my dear south wind was at 61 km per hour today in my city and a man was dead in other city yesterday - which is not natural for us here.

    And closing of ports in Egypt, terrible winds in the Middle East and alerts in locations worldwide.

    Shocked

    Sorry, I'll read the news before posting in the Mists of Avalon and not find so funny to pull a blanket in our spring. Almost summer, 40ºC. In spring is near 104Farenheit here.

    Best regards, Monique.

    Large Halo CME recorded 24th November on the Solar Corona

    These specific ejection's are harmonically represented and translated into Tropical Depressions/Typhoons/Hurricanes here on earth. The nature of which is determined by angle and symmetry of the halo and foreshadow direction through time-space.

    The 24th November Halo CME is expected to produce a significant Sub-Tropical storm in the northern hemisphere in 14-21 days, expected latitude would be 46-53 Degrees North Latitude .... Its recommended if you live in these latitudes that you keep an eye out for weather forecasts and expect some very cold conditions and significant snowfall and wild weather.

    This analysis is based on my solar observations

    The expected date of arrival Dec 7-14

    Namaste'

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



    Its worth noting i made this comment Nov 24, based on Halo CME activity.

    Its important to warn people that the next 5-9 days severe cold weather will hit UK, Netherlands and Germany. The Polar vortex will run across Italy and running through Europe and pull down the arctic air lower and this is about to cause massive chaos, prepare now people.

    Areas expected to get super arctic effects are UK, Netherlands and Germany so if you live in these areas prepare now.

    Namaste

    Winds, rain, sandstorms and hail battered the southern and eastern Mediterranean on Sunday, killing at least five people, closing ports and disrupting traffic in the Suez Canal.
    Drought-stricken countries across the Middle East had been praying for rain for weeks when the weather turned violent at the weekend, with at least five people killed as gale-force winds and torrential rain pounded the coastline.

    Winds topped 100 kilometres (60 miles) per hour and waves reached up to 10 metres (32.8 feet) tall as cities in Lebanon and Israel suffered power cuts.

    Arctic outflow is reaching into Mexico
    14 Dec 10 -
    "CITY OF MEXICO. - Arrival of Cold Front Number 14 and associated cold air in the morning is keeping temperatures very low and causing night frosts in the northern mesas, the central mesa and the western part of the country, as well as the northern part of the Gulf of Mexico, the National Meteorological Service has advised.

    It has alerted the states of Aguascalientes, Coahuila, Chiapas, Chihuahua, Federal District, Durango, Guanajuato, Guerrero, Jalisco, Mexico, Michoacán, Morelos, Nuevo Leon, Oaxaca, Puebla, San Luis Potosi, Sonora, Tamaulipas, Tlaxcala, Veracruz, and Zacatecas where temperatures could fall below five degrees Celsius."

    It goes on to say that there will be cloudy, rainy weather with strong winds in the states of Campeche, Chiapas, Quintano Roo, Tabasco, Tamaulipas, Veracruz and Yucatan.

    In other words, almost 80% of Mexico is going to be experiencing very cold not typically Mexican weather especially at night.

    In other words, almost 80% of Mexico is suffering from the cold coming from the current large Arctic outflow...

    Here in Saltillo this morning we woke up to a low of 5 C with light winds. The local forecast for tonight is clear with a low of 1 °C, Wind South 14 km/h and Windchill of 1 °C . It is reminiscent of winter weather in the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, Canada.

    Kindest regards,

    Freezing temps expected most of South Florida - 13 Dec 10
    Record cold tonight for FL, GA, SC and AL - Winter shuts down Midwest

    Winter weather shuts down the Midwest
    Wintry weather takes aim at Florida as the Midwest struggles to recover from a weekend storm that dumped more than a foot of snow in some areas, then sent temperatures below zero.

    In northern Indiana, frigid air racing over Lake Michigan churned up lake-effect snow that stranded "dozens upon dozens" of drivers in their vehicles, says Lt. Chris Eckert of the Porter County, Ind., Sheriff's Department.

    At Family Express, a gas station in Westville, Ind., clerk Sandi Oller could barely see the fuel pumps from the store windows Monday. She called conditions outside "a great big mess."

    Weather Channel meteorologist Brian Fortier says heavy snow will continue until Wednesday morning in southwest Michigan, northwest Indiana, northeast Ohio and western New York state. Cleveland could see an additional 1 to 2 feet of snow, he says.

    The cold has roared into South Florida. Monday, the National Weather Service issued wind chill warnings and advisories as far south as Miami, where wind chills were forecast to drop to the low 20s Tuesday morning.

    At Vo-LaSalle Farms in DeLeon Springs, Fla., workers covered hydroponic tomato and strawberry gardens with blanket-like coverings that protect fragile fruit from cold. "We run water under that, and we hope for the best," owner Bruce Crump says.

    Minnesota endured the worst of the cold Monday. International Falls bottomed out at 27 below zero. It was the coldest location in the lower 48 states Monday, the weather service says. It was minus-19 in Ely, Minn., Monday morning, says Mark Olson, owner of Canoe Country Outfitters. "Some people prefer winter over summer," he says. "It's never too cold."
    Florida shelters fruit from incoming cold

    13 Dec 10 — "Dozens upon dozens" of stranded motorists in northern Indiana, some for as much as 12 hours.

    Heavy snow forecast to continue until Wednesday morning, with southwestern Michigan, northwestern Indiana, and northeastern Ohio among the hardest hit. Cleveland should see an additional 1 to 2 feet of snow.

    Wind chills tonight are forecast to drop into the low 20s as far south as Miami..

    The Weather Channel is predicting about 30 record low temperatures tonight and Tuesday night in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama.

    Snow and wind move east on arctic blast
    BUFFALO (AP) — A storm that plagued the Midwest for days plodded into the Northeast and Canada on Tuesday with knifing winds and blowing snow, stranding hundreds of motorists on a southern Ontario highway and giving much of the region its first real taste of winter.

    The storm's bone-chilling cold continued its trek over the Great Lakes and into Canada. More snow was forecast or already falling Tuesday in parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. The frigid temperatures stretched into the deep South, where hard freeze warnings were in effect overnight in much of Florida. Hundreds of schools were closed or opening late.

    http://www.usatoday.com/weather/storms/winter/2010-12-14-winter-storm_N.htm

    Winter weather blasts Europe with bitter cold, heavy snow
    GENEVA (AP) — Heavy snow and subzero temperatures swept across Europe, killing at least eight homeless people in Poland, closing major airports in Britain and Switzerland and causing hundreds of highway accidents.

    Gatwick, London's second largest airport, and Geneva, a major hub for low-cost carrier Easyjet, were forced to shut down Wednesday as staff struggled to clear runways of snow. Edinburgh airport in Scotland, and Chambery and Grenoble in southeastern France also were closed.

    Eurocontrol, the central air control agency, reported severe flight delays in Frankfurt, Munich, Vienna and Prague.

    In Poland, police said eight men died Tuesday night after a bitter cold front roared in, with temperatures falling to around -4 degrees (F). Police spokesman Mariusz Sokolowski said the men, from different parts of the country, had been drinking. The eastern Polish city of Bialystok hit -15 degrees on Tuesday night.

    Meanwhile in Hawaii, it was 80 degrees here yesterday and the weather a bit warmer for this time of year.

    Boat Sofa makes sure you're prepared for global warming

    http://dvice.com/archives/2010/12/boat-sofa-makes.php#1

    Climate scientists tell us that one day global warming will cause low lying cities to be buried underwater, so why not be prepared with this sleek sofa that doubles as a row boat to get you out of the wet?

    Designer Bongyoel Yang says he designed his Boat Sofa concept for the "global warming generation", but even if you aren't a big Al Gore fan, you've got to admit that the sofa makes for a great conversation starter, and it sure looks better than that other sofa boat thing we looked at last spring.

    Azores: warning of volcanic eruption at sea

    Quote

    The President of the Regional Service of Civil Protection of the Azores (SRPCBA) ruled out any risk to people associated with the possibility of being underwater volcanic eruption occurs between the islands of central and western groups of the archipelago.

    Nevertheless, compared to the warning received from the Information Centre and the Azores Seismological Surveillance (civilian) that an eruption could be occurring in this area since early December, the Civil Protection comes with the "phenomenon carefully," assured Peter Chapman the Lusa news agency.

    The President of SRPCBA said that the situation was also reported to the maritime authorities to take steps for the possibility of gathering information for vessels operating in the area that eventually will be recording the eruption.

    Teresa Ferreira of CIVILIAN, justified the suspicion of an outbreak among the island groups of western and central zone of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, recorded with more than a hundred earthquakes in the last 10 days.

    The researcher said the Lusa that the area in question is located more than 100 km nearest islands ¿Flores, Corvo, Faial and Graciosa ¿and at depths ranging from 800 to 2000 meters.

    The last documented eruption occurred in marine waters of the Azores in 1998 occurred off the Serreta, Terceira Island.

    Solstice-eclipse overlap first in 456 years

    This year's winter solstice — an event that will occur next Tuesday — will coincide with a full lunar eclipse in a union that hasn't been seen in 456 years.


    OTTAWA — This year's winter solstice — an event that will occur next Tuesday — will coincide with a full lunar eclipse in a union that hasn't been seen in 456 years.

    The celestial eccentricity holds special significance for spiritualities that tap into the energy of the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year and a time that is associated with the rebirth of the sun.

    "It's a ritual of transformation from darkness into light," says Nicole Cooper, a high priestess at Toronto's Wiccan Church of Canada. "It's the idea that when things seem really bleak, (it) is often our biggest opportunity for personal transformation.

    "The idea that the sun and the moon are almost at their darkest at this point in time really only further goes to hammer that home."

    Cooper said Wiccans also see great significance in the unique coupling of the masculine energy of the sun and the feminine energy of the moon — transformative energies that she plans to incorporate into the church's winter-solstice rituals.

    Since the last time an eclipse and the winter solstice happened simultaneously was just under five centuries years ago, Cooper said she wasn't familiar with any superstitions or mythologies associated with it. Instead, she said, they can only be interpreted personally.

    "Wiccans don't think of things as being good or evil — they just are. Our experience of them makes them positive or negative for us." The winter solstice also played an important role in Greco-Roman rituals.

    "It's seen as a time of rebirth or renewal because, astrologically, it's a time where the light comes back," said Shane Hawkins, a professor of Greek and Roman studies at Carleton University in Ottawa. For the ancient Romans, it was also a time of great feasting and debauchery.

    "If (the eclipse) happened on the 21st, they might well have been drunk," he said. A lunar eclipse taking place during the solstice is not an event Hawkins has seen in research, but he said it would have been viewed as something special.

    "Eclipses could be taken either way," he said. "Certainly it would have been an omen, but it would have been up to the interpretation of specialists of whether it was good or bad." And that interpretation would likely be based on whatever was happening at the time.

    The last time the two celestial events happened at the same time was in AD 1554, according to NASA. An otherwise seemingly unexceptionable year in recorded history, the darkened moon happened during a bleak year for Tudor England.

    Lady Jane Grey was beheaded for treason that year, while Princess Elizabeth was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Mary of Guise — the mother of Mary, Queen of Scots — became regent of Scotland.

    Scientifically, however, it's just a coincidence of natural cycles. "It's quite rare, but there's no profound significance. It's luck of the draw; you got dealt four aces," said Robert Dick, an astronomy instructor at Carleton.

    The eclipse will start just after midnight Eastern Time on Tuesday, with the main event starting at 1:30 a.m. ET and lasting until 5:30 a.m., when the moon reappears.
