As Hurricane Willa rolled onto Mexico’s shores at a Cat3, Typhoon Yutu strengthens to Cat 5 as it starts its landfall on Guam. Reunion Island temperatures fudged to show warmest September ever, but its not. Rome cleans up after a once in a 100 year hail storm with six foot piles of ice along streets and five feet of snow forecast for Italy and Slovenia.
A mathematical model of the Sun’s magnetic activity suggests temperatures could start dropping here from 2021, with the potential for winter skating on the River Thames by 2030.
A team led by maths professor Valentina Zharkova at Northumbria University built on work from Moscow to predict the movements of two magnetic waves produced by the Sun.

Some strange anomalies are now manifesting over Europe as the Equatorial Vortex and Polar vortex collide with 20C below normal and 20C above normal fronts collide. Climate chaos is an understatement to what has been seen in the last few days and what is expected over the next ten days across the continent. Record rains in Spain, Italy and tornadoes Cyprus. Hail feet deep paralyzes Rome.

Tyskland feiler både i å redusere energiforbruket og utslipp av såkalte “drivhusgasser”. Myndighetene greier ikke å øke energiproduktiviteten og heller ikke andelen av såkalt “fornybar” energi i transportsektoren. Samtidig er kostnadene enorme.
De siste fem åra er det brukt 160 milliarder euro på Die Wende, tilsvarende ca. 1,5 billion norske kroner. Hvis kostnadene fortsetter å øke uten at målene blir nådd, er det fare for at folk taper tiltroen til myndighetenes evne til å handle, heter det i rapporten.
Bare i 2017 var kostnadene på 34 milliarder euro, over 300 milliarder kroner. Av dette faller tre firedeler på skattebetalerne gjennom “grønn” energibeskatning. Revisjonsretten anklager myndighetene for total mangel på både kostnadsstyring og transparens, og skriver at ressurssløseriet er “uten sidestykke”.

Without government subsidy, they are unaffordable. With governments facing financial troubles, the subsidies are unaffordable. It was a nice dream, a very expensive dream, but it didnt work.
California had the big three of wind farm locations Altamont Pass, Tehachapi, and San Gorgonio, considered the worlds best wind sites. Californias wind farms, almost 80% of the worlds wind generation capacity ceased to generate even more quickly than Kamaoa Wind Farm in Hawaii. There are five other abandoned wind farms in Hawaii. When they are abandoned, getting the turbines removed is a major problem. They are highly unsightly, and they are huge, and thats a lot of material to get rid of.

Unprecedented Rains in Qatar.
From Canada to China and throughout Europe, the world denounced the presidents decision as reckless and in contradiction to settled science. Without the Paris Climate Accords, they argued, Earth would soon find itself cascading off the global warming cliff.
One year later, Earth is still here, as you may have noticed.

Scott Base is New Zealands only Antarctic research station and will be home to 40 Antarctica New Zealand staff over the Austral summer.
A statement from ANZ called it the longest delay in decades for the start of the season.
There are only 22 weeks in the season, so a two-week delay, especially at the beginning, is significant, said operations general manager Simon Trotter.
Weather delays are beyond our control all we can do is re-schedule and wait for the window of opportunity.
