A sudden stratospheric warming event reversed the winds that make up the northern polar vortex on March 9. A new animation shows the vortex also moved away from the Arctic towards Europe. Between March 1 and March 20, the polar vortex traveled from above the Arctic to above Northern Europe. (Image credit: NOAA Climate) A major disruption to the Arctic polar vortex has bumped the ring of wind that circles the North Pole off its perch and towards Europe, a new animation shows. The migration could trigger colder-than-average temperatures in parts of the continent and across the eastern U.S. over...

There is a major story developing on Capitol Hill after House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer, R-Ky, revealed that a long-withheld report from the Biden Administration directly contradicted the claims of climate change used to limit increased U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. The suggestion is that this was an knowing effort to cap carbon admissions rather than carbon emissions.The impact that new U.S. LNG exports have on the environment and the economy was reviewed by U.S. Energy Department scientists and completed by September 2023. It appears that neither President Biden nor Secretary Jennifer Granholm liked...

Over three hundred people at a climate action conference had to be rescued on Thursday, March 13 after a heavy snowstorm left them stranded at a camp near Big Bear. The group began to leave YMCA Camp Whittle in Fawnskin, where the conference was held, walking through roughly two feet of snow in an attempt to get to an area where the roads were clear enough for buses to wait. Initially, those buses were stuck in the snow, and that caught the eye of firefighters, including Captain Anthony Muscarello. The buses happened to be stuck near San Bernardino County Fire...

Feet of snow across parts of central New York caused more than two dozen homes and businesses to collapse under its weight, according to Oswego County officials. A lake-effect snowstorm started on Feb. 14 and did not let up until Feb. 19, piling feet of snow on roofs. According to the National Weather Service’s Buffalo office, the highest weekly totals included 79.1 inches in Palermo and 55.8 inches in Minetto. On Feb. 19, the city of Oswego had 20 inches of snow on the ground, the highest snow depth so far in February, according to the NWS.

America is bracing for a brutal Arctic blast as a massive polar vortex smashes the country bringing deep freeze and catastrophic winter storms. Meteorologists are warning this will be the most punishing Arctic invasion yet, cementing this period as one of relentless, record-breaking cold. Frigid forces in the Arctic are converging, pushing what should be confined to the North Pole deep into the US, several meteorologists tell The Associated Press. This will be the 10th time this winter the polar vortex - which keeps the coldest air at the top of the world - stretches like a rubber band to...

ALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida spent Tuesday preparing for its most significant bout of winter weather since 1989, with airports closing and officials calling for residents in the western Panhandle to stay off the roads. On Tuesday evening, widespread reports of 5-12 inches of snow were reported around Pensacola, causing troopers to shut down a nearly 70-mile stretch of Interstate 10. National Weather Service offices along the corridor issued a rare Winter Storm Warning for counties from Pensacola to Jacksonville, warning of snow and ice accumulations that could make travel hazardous. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a state of emergency on...

The weather outside will soon be frightful. Upstate New York could be facing up to 6 feet of “extreme” snow as the city braces for the coldest temperatures yet this season. Every morning is going to be essentially below freezing for the next, at least 10 days, maybe two weeks,” Fox Weather meteorologist Cody Braud told The Post Saturday. “And our afternoon highs are going to be in the low to mid-40s every day as well for this entire week. “Looking long term to the start of next weekend, we may not even get out of the 30s,” ...

Surface ocean temperatures are plunging rapidly around the world with scientists reported to be puzzled at the speed of the recent decline. Less puzzlement was to be found when the oceans were ‘boiling’ during the last two years. Plebs flying to Benidorm for an annual holiday and causing ‘global heating’ was a favourite explanation, although mainstream media put it in marginally more polite terms. For almost two years, this boiling ocean trope has been a reliable standby for every alarmist spiv promoting the Net Zero insanity. But expect the scare to be parked for a while along with coral reefs,...

When it comes to climate science, basically, researchers, mainstream media outlets, the UN, and the Democrats simply make things up as they go along to fit the narrative. When the earth didn’t warm up as much as they predicted, they changed the terminology from global warming to climate change. When hundreds of dire predictions never came true, and they had no scientific data to support their policies to destroy industries and our quality and way of life, they just made things up, just like they did with COVID. Now, take a look at this, from The Washington Post, via Yahoo...

People living in southern Australia won’t have failed to notice how cold it is. Frosty nights and chilly days have been the weather for many of us since the start of July. As winter continues, we are left wondering how unusual the cold is and whether we can expect several more months of this. Warmer conditions are in the forecast but winter has a long way to go. Further cold snaps could occur. Cold conditions have been in place across southern Australia for the past few days. Temperatures have fallen below zero overnight in many places.

The California snowpack is at 110% of average in 2024, the state Department of Water Resources (DWR) said on Tuesday, after conducting the annual snow survey. Officials measured the snow depth at Phillips Station in the Sierra Nevada mountains, recording a depth of 64 inches, which is 113% of the annual average. Measurements from elsewhere in the mountain range were used to calculate the combined average of 110% — a good sign of a healthy water supply. While some expected a dry winter, especially after the wet 2022-23 winter produced record snowfall in parts of the state, the 2023-24 winter...

A specialized C-130 aircraft provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) will assist in the CAESAR campaign’s investigations (Credit: Dan Zietlow/NSF/NCAR) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The U.S. Naval Research Lab (NRL) is assisting an investigation into unexplained arctic phenomena associated with the sudden formation of intense “polar lows” that are known to lead to hazardous conditions at sea. Since late February, a field campaign, the Cold-Air outbreak Experiment in the Sub-Arctic Region, or CAESAR, has been collecting data on the phenomenon underlying these potentially dangerous arctic events by observing cloud formations and other Arctic meteorological conditions....

After a multi-day blizzard dropped 6 to 11 feet of snow across the Sierra Nevada, California’s snowpack has surged to above normal for the first time this year.State data updated Monday morning shows the snowpack at 104% of normal for this time of year. It’s a stunning change from just two months ago, when the state snowpack stood at a paltry 25% of normal on Jan. 2.The snowpack was highest relative to historical averages in the Northern Sierra, where it stood at 111% of normal. Last weekend’s storm buried Lake Tahoe to the point of closing ski resorts. The Northern...

Image Credit : Oleg Kuznetsov - CC BY-SA 4.0 Geologists have solved the source of Snowball Earth, a period when the planet’s environment was an extreme “icehouse”. A new study by the University of Sydney has applied plate tectonic modelling to understand the cause of the ice-age climate. According to the geologists, the event was the result of low volcanic emissions that occurred more than 700 mya, providing new insights into how sensitive global climate is to atmospheric carbon concentration. “Imagine the Earth almost completely frozen over,” said the study’s lead author, ARC Future Fellow Dr Adriana Dutkiewicz. “That’s just...
