Another massive cold wave headed for Eastern US next week to put temperature 20 degrees below normal
Senior WeatherBell Meteorologist Joe Bastardi commented:
I am 58.. never seen anything close to this for late March.
and
[The] pattern next week has as much extreme potential for the time of the year as I can find. Coldest opening to calender spring in 50 yrs at least.
Weather forecast models such as the ECMWF and NCEP, both of which have had good track records this year in identifying polar vortex outbreaks in advance, are now forecasting a massive cold blast for the beginning of spring. See maps:
Dr. Ryan Maue commented on this forecast from ECMWF:
ECMWF 12z (WMO-Essential) 850-hPa temperature + wind streams. Final 10-day outcome after 2nd Arctic blast. Brutal.
He added:
Canadian ensemble system looks like other guidance at 7-days as well. This cake is baked. Arctic blast to end March
…
If Lake Michigan can open up a bit, then this cold could drop enormous amounts of Lake Effect snow on Lower Peninsula of Michigan.

In 1990 it snowed on Derby Day, the first Sat in May. I remember because I was there & freezing! Just that time of year…
Maybe the author, Mr. Watts, could obtain a comment from [snip – a bit extreme -mod] party fool and colossal fraud, algore.

“Logic…..”
I now have a name for for my next female bull terrier. Thank you.
Olde English saying. “Never cast a cloat (clothes) till May is out”. All the weather is doing is reverting back 50 years, when we never had any summers in England to boast about. “I remember it well…. school holidays ended in early September when the weather got sunnier, just normal really. It is cooling in my part of Australia, the Northern Tablelands of NSW, night temps are dropping to 10 C, and I am bringing in some of my plants and bonsais that don’t tolerate temps this low.

Brainless appeals to authority don’t work here — regulars have seen thousands of ’em. Yawn…..
I don’t want to brag, but I kind of saw this coming.
Who are HAARPS? Sorry to show my ignorance?

Spring is arriving earlier and earlier.
—————————————————–
Spring was arriving earlier and earlier for quite a few years. The reset button appears to have been pushed several years ago.
I guess the northern east coast are going to have hold on just a bit longer. Maybe the groundhog has something to do with that.
Is the snow and ice melting yet?
If you can believe in Jesus Christ, global warming is easy.
Who are these 97% of climate scientist? Have we got a real list of them? What happened to the other 3%? It is easy to pick percentages out to prove a dodgy point.
1/2 of UN climate scientist are not really scientist but UN bureaucrats, UN PACS, UN lawyers, or UN environmentalist.
I see who they are about 1x a year. My latest info of who they are was about a year ago and it is secret, so I saw it by accident.
They are being paid then! Lousy manipulation of data and consensus.
Consensus is not science. Several important discoveries have been discovered without consensus, instead they proved a scientific canon. Most recently was the true cause of ulcers.
Meterological explanation. The annual cold air moving south moved more intensely this year, “ there was a sharp dip in the jet stream (“trough”) over Canada and the U.S. that could be considered a portion of the tropospheric polar vortex circulation, but such a trough is not uncommon; this one was just particularly strong”, supporting global warming premise of weather extremes increasing.

Well, those f*ckwits have been doing it since medieval times to make a living, possibly well before.
Great link though. I’ll be pasting it on more sites.
The UNIPCC obviously used as text, Colleen McCollouchs ‘Creed of the Third Millennium,’ fiction novel. She describes a zero pollution growth, displacement of North American populations, no power only a few hours of the day, and death penalties for those who cut down trees for fuel. And a one world government? Do you reckon there as some similarities. Actually her descriptive writing of what it was like to live in New York was great. Had me turning on the electric blanket in our summer.
