Mike Bastasch writes at the Daily Caller:
Daily low temperature records are being smashed in the western half of the U.S. as states from Michigan to California experience wintry weather.
Meteorologist Ryan Maue tweeted Monday that “record low temperatures are covering the map with a major cold front blasting through the Rockies to the Mississippi River.”

Snowing pretty good in the greater Pueblo area. Snowing here at the weather office at the Pueblo airport (left) and CDOT pic in Pueblo West area (right). Note that US-50 is getting snowpacked #cowx pic.twitter.com/ZzsQjlJPXi

However, Americans are experiencing frigid weather as far south as the Rio Grande, Maue tweeted. Parts of the south, including parts of Texas, will still be relatively warm compared to western states.

The surface temperature in region Nino 1 + 2 is important for circulation in winter in North America.
Hooray for the warm weather!
We don’t get many mosquitoes in Calgary – it is typically too dry.
We do get lots of other pests to bug us though. There are so many corrupt leftist politicians and civil servants at City Hall with their multitudes of petty laws and rules that we are always in violation of something. Our 30kmph playground zones are a major source of revenue for these crooks, especially at 9:29pm, when it is minus 40 degrees outside.
Then there is our utterly brutal and corrupt police force and the corrupt Courts system that supports it – another manifestation of the Deep Marxist State that Canada has become.
In 2016 Calgary cops shot 10 civilians, whereas the number for other cities our size in Canada was ZERO. Murder charges recommended by ASIRT against one trigger-happy cop were not pursued because the Crown Prosecutor refused to do so. The same brutal cop who killed unarmed and non-threatening young Anthony Heffernan also shot and killed quadriplegic Dave McQueen – what a man!
It should be noted that most of the victims of cop shootings were white – Calgary cops are proudly equally-opportunity murderers.
Calgary cops are typical of such dysfunctional groups – a bunch of brutal sociopaths set the rules, and the rest are too cowardly to clean up their own shop.
Sooner or later somebody is going to completely lose it, and then they will probably retaliate against the wrong people – that is the problem with violence.
In the meantime, the thinking people are leaving Canada for saner countries. My friend Dr. L, an accomplished specialist physician, just moved to Thailand – he has had it with Canada and is completely done with all the Marxist lies.
Did I mention that almost all our civic politicians and civic employees pay lip service to global warming alarmism?
moderator – please delete this double-post. Thank you.
But at least you can all be potheads now. Progress!
Yesterday (Friday 19Oct2018) at about 4pm my young daughter and I were biking up the bicycle path beside northbound (1-way) Edmonton Trail when a Calgary Police van with sirens blaring drove SOUTHbound on the bike path, forcing my child to emergency-crash onto the adjacent grass verge. Half a block away, the southbound lanes of Edmonton Trail were not that busy.
This cop stunting is highly irregular. I have never seen or heard of this happening before. However, it does coincide with the legalization of marijuana in Canada.
My analysis is that the two cops in the van were vaping grass or hash and had a bad case of the munchies, and were in a big rush to get to the donut shop.
Like global warming, “there can be no other explanation”. 🙂
This is the ising on the climate cake:

Exactly what climate change theory predicts.
Move along…
The cold temperatures are from gradually lower solar activity since the end of SC24 TSI peak in 2015, since March 2016 when daily TSI fell below my solar ocean warming threshold, leading to a current deficit in incoming solar energy, and since Feb 2017, when 2017-2018 Greenland ice growth commenced in earnest as my long-term F10.7cm running average fell below my warming/cooling 120 sfu/day threshold. The cold is spreading fast as the low TSI sun quiets even more.
The bluer this image gets, the lower the TSI goes, and the colder it gets:
TSI has down-trended during the last few solar rotations. The current bright sunspot, with F10.7cm of 70, bumped up TSI very slightly but not much. It, with the photospheric plasma in the sun’s RH quadrant, will roll out of sight early next week leaving a much bluer dimmer sun in this image, taking TSI down with it, and along with that more spreading and deepening cold, snow and ice.
