Climate change has no bias, but our societies and systems do. And although it’s a danger to all of us, a changing climate affects some groups disproportionately, raising issues of justice and equity. In this episode of Crash Course Climate and Energy, we’ll take a look at the ways injustice within societal structures causes climate change to affect some more than others and discuss some of the work that environmental justice advocates are doing in response.

The sun. Smooth and round and peaceful. Except when it suddenly vomits radiation and plasma in random directions. These solar flares and coronal mass ejections, or CMEs can hit earth and have serious consequences for humanity.

How exactly do they work, how bad could they be and can we prepare for them?

Weird Weather Watch – Hurricane Blanca moisture & heat to travel across the USA https://paranormalactivity.org/weird-weather-watch-hurricane-blanca-moisture-heat-to-travel-across-the-usa/ https://paranormalactivity.org/weird-weather-watch-hurricane-blanca-moisture-heat-to-travel-across-the-usa/#comments Thu, 11 Jun 2015 03:18:55 +0000 http://paranormalactivity.org/weird-weather-watch-hurricane-blanca-moisture-heat-to-travel-across-the-usa/

We’ve got the wet ghost of Hurricane Blanca traveling up into the Colorado Rockies through the Plains past the Great Lakes and out across the north East coast and Canada. We’ve got some renegade weather ahead people.

God bless everyone,

SantaBomb Alert! Weird Weather Watch is ON! for 1/2 of America Now through 2014 https://paranormalactivity.org/santabomb-alert-weird-weather-watch-is-on-for-1-2-of-america-now-through-2014/ https://paranormalactivity.org/santabomb-alert-weird-weather-watch-is-on-for-1-2-of-america-now-through-2014/#comments Sun, 21 Dec 2014 04:22:38 +0000 https://paranormalactivity.org/santabomb-alert-weird-weather-watch-is-on-for-1-2-of-america-now-through-2014/

We’ve got a SantaBomb binary double low pressure on the East Coast all along the Atlantic & an atmospheric river low pressure system hitting the West Pacific Coast are of the USA, plus a plunging Jet Stream that will freeze the middle of central America.

This will be in rolling waves and rounds.

The following excerpts are from Accuweather.

“A storm bearing strong winds, heavy snow, torrential rain, thunderstorms and fog will converge on the Northeast and Midwest on Christmas Eve and will likely create major travel delays, both on the roads and at airports.
The early stages of travel problems from patchy rain and fog will develop on Tuesday. The most widespread travel disruptions and the worst weather conditions in terms of windswept rain and travel-impairing snow will be centered on Christmas Eve.

Problems due to snow and wind will continue in the Upper Midwest and central Appalachians into Christmas Day.

Drenching Rain to Raise Flooding Risk in Northeast
For many people traveling by ground and air, rain will be an inconvenience. However, enough rain can fall at times to cause poor visibility and increase the risk of hydroplaning for those traveling at highway speeds.
Excess water on the roads will reduce the braking action and increase the distance required between vehicles in an emergency situation.
Heavy rainfall in the Midwest will tend to be spotty, but as the storm moves northward on Christmas Eve, heavy rain will become widespread progressing through the mid-Atlantic and New England.

According to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Henry Margusity, “We are concerned about rapidly melting snow, combined with heavy rain leading to a stream and river flooding situation in northern New England.”

Strong Winds Could be a Snag for Airline Passengers
One of the most common causes of flight delays is strong winds, especially where they blow perpendicular to runways.
Gusty winds blowing from the south and east may lead to flight delays in the mid-Atlantic, New England and eastern Great Lakes region Tuesday night and Wednesday.
Increasing winds from the west and northwest may cause similar problems throughout the Midwest on Christmas Eve with the risk expanding to the mid-Atlantic and Northeast on Christmas Day.
The strongest winds are likely in New England Wednesday into Wednesday night, when gusts could reach 60 mph along the coast and over mountains across the interior. Gusts could approach 50 mph around New York City Wednesday into Wednesday evening.
These strong winds can also lead to coastal flooding from the coast of New Jersey all the way up the coast of Maine.
This can result in flooded roadways and properties located along the immediate coast.
Turbulence during and in the wake of the storm could be a problem on some flights.

Strong Thunderstorms May Affect the South
The storm system may become strong enough to produce drenching and gusty thunderstorms in the Deep South.
The concern for these thunderstorms is greatest from eastern Louisiana and Mississippi to Florida and South Carolina.
AccuWeather.com meteorologists will be monitoring the potential for the risk to expand to the eastern Carolinas on Wednesday.

Snow to Create Hazardous Travel in Midwest, Appalachians and Ohio Valley
While much of the South, mid-Atlantic and New England will be spared travel problems from snow with this storm, significant travel delays and dangers will develop in the Midwest and perhaps the Appalachians from Christmas Eve through Christmas Day.
The greatest risk of an all-out snowstorm is over a part of Michigan and central Ontario.
It is during the transition to colder air following rain, when the greatest dangers for travelers may develop farther south.
While not a huge amount of snow is forecast for the Ohio Valley states, the lower Great Lakes and central Appalachians with the storm itself, snow showers or a quick burst of snow could lead to a rapid covering of snow on the highways.
From parts of Illinois, Kentucky and lower Michigan, eastward to western Pennsylvania, western New York and West Virginia, motorists should be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions on Christmas Eve. This could occur during the day over the Midwest and toward the central Appalachians as temperatures fall.

A storm bearing strong winds, heavy snow, torrential rain, thunderstorms and fog will converge on the Northeast and Midwest on Christmas Eve and will likely create major travel delays, both on the roads and at airports.
The early stages of travel problems from patchy rain and fog will develop on Tuesday. The most widespread travel disruptions and the worst weather conditions in terms of windswept rain and travel-impairing snow will be centered on Christmas Eve.”

God Bless Everyone,

https://www.youtube.com/THORnews I’ve spotted a line of 5 wind formations in a row. 4 in the Atlantic Ocean, 1 in the Pacific Ocean – Norbert and here is the weirdest thing. They’re all in a row. That is super bizarre. With Flash Floods taking out roads and highways in Phoenix Arizona and then Nevada, plus the devastating floods in India and Australia getting hit hard, I’m taking my THORnews weather watch up a notch.

God Bless Everyone,

Climate Change, Chaos, and The Little Ice Age – Crash Course World History 206 https://paranormalactivity.org/climate-change-chaos-and-the-little-ice-age-crash-course-world-history-206/ https://paranormalactivity.org/climate-change-chaos-and-the-little-ice-age-crash-course-world-history-206/#comments Thu, 21 Aug 2014 23:29:57 +0000 http://paranormalactivity.org/climate-change-chaos-and-the-little-ice-age-crash-course-world-history-206/

In which John Green teaches you about the Little Ice Age. The Little Ice Age was a period of global cooling that occurred from the 13th to the 19th centuries. This cooling was likely caused by a number of factors, including unusual solar activity and volcanic eruptions. The Little Ice Age greatly impacted human social orders, especially during the 17th century. When the climate changed, and the weather became unpredictable, the world changed profoundly. Poor harvests led to hunger, which led to even less productivity, which even resulted in violent upheaval in a lot of places. All this from a little change in the temperature? Definitely.
