Climate Change SCAM

Fighting Climate Change By Poisoning Americans

The Obama Administration is INSANE. In his zeal to cripple the oil and coal industries to save the world from carbon dioxide, President Obama is spraying Americans with toxic chemicals and metals. This geo-engineering of the planet is intended to fight climate change. Americans are sheep being led to slaughter in order to fight Obama's climate change (carbon dioxide) hoax. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. It makes Earth green. Chemtrails make Earth toxic.

According to Susanne Posel, Occupy Corporatism, in an Internet article titled, "Obama's Science Adviser Says Chemtrails Will Save The Planet," "John Holdren, Obama's Science Advisor believes that geoengineering will assist the planet in stabilizing weather with regard to global warming. Holdren sees geo-engineering as a perfectly viable way to cool the planet's temperature. He fully supports the process of releasing particles of barium, magnesium, aluminum, nano-fibers, bacillus blood spores and other chemicals to reflect sunlight away from the Earth."

"Holdren blames human emissions of carbon dioxide as responsible for droughts, food shortages, and rising sea levels along with the extreme weather we have seen recently. Holdren is upholding Obama's goal of cutting greenhouse gas emissions 20% by 2020 and 80% by 2050."

Susanne points out correctly that "Holdren's recent statement is obvious fear mongering propaganda designed to coerce Capitol Hill and the American public of "truths' surmised by unscientific data." She notes that "The National Institute of Health has found that geo-engineering is directly responsible for neurotoxins found in human blood, lungs, as well as causing a whole host of neurotoxic conditions such as multiple sclerosis."

Chemtrail Pollution Over the United States

Our government is on the job polluting the atmosphere, clouds and the Pacific Ocean with, who knows what, chemicals and/or metals. Cloud tracks, seen in this visible image from space, are polluting only low clouds. There are no high clouds over this polluted patch. Thus it is likely a geoengineering experiment to increase reflectivity of low clouds in order to reduce global warming by reflecting sunlight back to space. That might seem harmless enough until one learns that two days later these pollutants were lifted by the approaching cold front and dispersed over the country. And these same experiments have been conducted several times a month for more than ten years. Is it any wonder that Morgellon's disease* is spreading like wildfire?

How do I know that this is government sponsored Geoengineering? Surprise interviews in the halls of the Capitol evinced grudging responses from two Congresspersons that we have to do this to fight climate change and we have to do this to stay ahead of other countries. Most Congresspersons knew nothing about it.

So what we have here is probably a decades old budget line item that was justified as necessary to fight global warming and like most government research projects will go on forever because there are congresspersons who have a vested interest in the climate change hoax and taxpayers are unaware.

Geoengineering the atmosphere is not only dangerous to humanity it is totally unjustified. The government should stop it now.

*Morgellon's disease-Earliest symptoms include the sensation that bugs are crawling under the sufferer's skin. The sensation is so excruciating and persistent 24/7 that some sufferers become suicidal. Persistent lesions appear on many sufferers. Tiny bundles of fiber-like filaments are exuded from the lesions and often from areas of the body that do not have lesions. Under a microscope these bundles respond to external stimuli as if to be alive.

Morgellon's can sometimes be infectious, although not always. It is suspected that perhaps there is a genetic connection. A family friend's son became infected. He became despondent and nearly suicidal, and decided to avoid contact with his mother until his mother convinced him otherwise. When he finally agreed to visit his mother, she became infected and is also under extreme stress. She no longer teaches and has closed her computer repair business for fear of infecting friends, students and clients. This mother and son, like so many other sufferers, have been told that their condition is "all in their heads," thanks to the Federal Government.

Why do I believe Morgellon's is spread by aircraft spraying chemicals and metals under government sponsorship? Because two Congresspersons admitted it and the government is covering it up. The CDC and the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology closed its Morgellon's investigation after a year. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recently declared that Morgellon's is psychological, and refers to this condition as "Delusional Parasitosis". As a result, most doctors will not attempt to treat the symptoms, but instead, refer the patient to a psychiatrist. Cases have been reported of people who lost their jobs and/or rights to rear their children because of having been labeled "delusional". This is unconscionable.

More Poison From The Sky

May 15 to 21, 2012

Cloud tracks reveal large amounts of pollutants from chemtrails entering the atmosphere and ocean 1000 miles northeast of Hawaii. A front approaching from the west will soon lift these pollutants to higher altitudes.

Five days later, the cold front loaded with chemtrail pollutants is precipitating over the Pacific Northwest and the Rockies. This has been going on for more than ten years. It explains the high concentration of aluminum dioxide measured in the snow on Mount Shasta. Concentrations far exceed maximum allowed levels. Fresh water for human consumption is being polluted. Rivers, streams and flood plains are being polluted. Agriculture is being polluted.

President Obama cannot be faulted for this madness in the past, but he should terminate it now. This research, paid for by American taxpayers, responds to fear mongering propaganda that we must fight climate change. Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels, thought to be responsible for climate change, are invisible, have no odor and are a necessary ingredient for all green plants. Burning fossil fuels makes Earth green. We are nuts to fight it, especially with chemtrail pollutants.

April 21, 2012

Paul Krugman wrote in his March 25, 2012, New York Times editorial, "...the conspiracy theories are proliferating so fast it's hard to keep up. Thus, large numbers of Republicans -and we're talking about important political figures, not random supporters-firmly believe that global warming is a gigantic hoax perpetrated by a global conspiracy involving thousands of scientists, not one of whom has broken the code of omerta."

Thanks Paul. This makes the November election decisions easy. Vote Republican and the global warming hoax will not destroy this country as it is the eurozone countries.

Cap and trade, imposed on Europeans to fight the global warming hoax, has increased the cost of gasoline to nearly $10.00 per gallon. Food, clothing and most other commodities are being priced out of sight. Unemployment is skyrocketing. Big governments and welfare states have become unaffordable. Default looms over most countries. Rioting frequents the streets. The entire eurozone is on the precipice, over an abyss of recession, threateninga worldwide depression. All of this was brought on by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), to fleece Europe and feather the nests of carbon traders and UN functionaries, in the faux fight against the climate change hoax.

President Obama has made his war on the climate change hoax, a central policy of his Administration. He is systematically destroying the American economy by financially squeezing oil, gas and coal companies into producing less so that he can shower his green energy cronies with taxpayer dollars. Before his election, Senator Obama said his plan would cause the price of electricity to skyrocket. Energy Secretary, Steven Chu wished for Eurozone gasoline prices in the U.S. Obama's trillion dollar stimulus bill squandered multibillions on his cronies' green energy projects and bogus research. His EPA has declared carbon dioxide a pollutant and is threatening to terminate generation of electricity by coal, our least expensive source of energy. Obama himself, is fighting against the XL Pipeline that can bring us oil from our close friends in Canada. The Obama energy policy is right out of Alice in Wonderland. It is based on the global warming/climate change hoax.

In three years, Obama has increased the U.S. National Debt by $5.3 trillion dollars and his Federal Reserve has printed many trillions more that will haunt our progeny through this century. Another four years of Obama and the Democrats in Congress, will surely send America over the abyss on the heels of the Eurozone disaster.

Thank you Paul Krugman, for enlightening us.

In his rant, Paul agonized that, "...Republicans... firmly (correctly) believe that global warming is a gigantic hoax perpetrated by a global conspiracy involving thousands of scientists, not one of whom has broken the code of omerta." Paul does not understand that thousands of scientists cannot break the code of omerta because their reputation and their meal ticket is global warming. No matter the overwhelming evidence against global warming contained in this website and www.climatechangehoax.com, the scientific consensus for global warming/climate change has nowhere else to go. Their predecessors dug them too deep a hole.

The Federal Government's National Science Foundation began funding research in the ancient Greenhouse theory and in El Nino Southern Oscillation(ENSO), in the 1960's. This soon became its central focus. Other research areas were either beggared or not funded. Soon university curricula in Atmospheric Science were modified to support these research projects. As a result, today's atmospheric scientists almost universally have been schooled to believe that weather and climate are controlled by average global surface temperature (global warming) and by surface temperature anomalies (ENSO). This has become a dead end for these scientists and for climate prediction.

As demonstrated by satellite imagery, McIdas cloud motion winds and National Weather Service wind and temperature analyses in this website, weather/climate in mid-latitudes is controlled by nonlinear upper atmosphere processes. Tiny average annual surface temperature changes on the planet have little to no influence on initial value Numerical Weather Prediction models. Climate prediction models based on radiation from greenhouse gases and near equatorial temperature anomalies have no useful skill.

Unfortunately, Paul Krugman's warning might be too little, too late. The Department of Education and the lame stream media have a long head start in brainwashing the publicthat fossil fuels are responsible for global warming/climate change. The local newspaper carried an article on April 18, 2012 written by Justin Gillis of the New York Times, with the headline, "Nearly 70% in Survey Call Climate Change Real." He writes, "...a large majority of Americans believe that this year's unusually warm winter, last year's blistering summer and some other weather disasters were likely made worse by global warming."

Hold it, Mr. Gillis. These false beliefs validate the Republican's contention that manmade global warming is a gigantic hoax perpetrated by the U.S. Government and the lame stream media presumably to allow President Obama to bring fossil fuel producers and users under control of the Democratic party in order to socialize the country. It is working in Europe, why not here?

The global warming hoax holds that burning fossil fuels has caused surface temperature of Earth to increase 1.0 degree Fahrenheit in the last forty years. That is .025 degrees per year. There is no conclusive proof that this temperature increase is caused by man. Earth's temperature has been gradually increasing, in an interglacial warming period, since the last ice age 19,000 years ago. If history repeats, Earth will continue to warm until the polar ice caps have melted and sea levels are much higher than today. Burning fossil fuels is not necessary for this natural variability to repeat, as it has five times in the last 600,00 years.

Oh, by the way, we recently learned that Polar Bears have been around for 600,000 years. Despite the anguish of moviemakers and media brainwashers, Polar Bear cubs should get through this warm period as did their forebears.

"...this year's unusually warm winter, last year's blistering summer and some other weather disasters," were not "likely made worse by global warming."Numerical Weather Prediction became operational in 1957. For the first time, computers routinely prepared three day predictions of temperature, wind velocity and precipitation. The forecasts were controlled by upper atmosphere circulation and middle atmosphere temperature. Surface temperature had little predictive value. The scientific consensus that insists global warming (surface temperature) causes extreme weather events seems to be unaware of these long known facts about the dynamics of weather and climate (average weather).

Appendix B of this website shows what caused this year's unusually warm winter. Global warming had nothing to do with it. The Southwest drought was targeted by an unusual storm track from Siberia to the U.S. West Coast, then on a Southwest storm track from Arizona to Texas. More than half the days this winter found a high altitude cold pocket or cyclone over Arizona, New Mexico or Texas. Texas, the drought center, experienced 240% more rain than during the winter of 2011.

A side effect of this drought relief was record warm temperatures in the North and East. Cold pockets and cyclones move north unless warm air prevents it. Thus an unusual amount of warm air was necessary north and east of the Southwest storm track in order to relieve the Southwest drought (See Appendix B, December through February 2012 and March 2012 in this Foreword).

Lame stream media emphasis on unusually warm temperatures "likely made worse by global warming" misses the real importance of these weather events. The Southwest U.S. drought was targeted throughout the winter of 2012 by an unusual and persistent storm track from Arizona through Texas. How did that happen? Can the atmosphere sense that soil moisture content is too low?

Prevailing storm tracks moving into the Pacific Northwest from Siberia dove abruptly south to Arizona where warm upper winds forced the storm track east over the drought center in Texas. What is going on here? Does the atmosphere drastically alter storm tracks to perform planet housekeeping functions? That is certainly what happened during winter 2012. Prevailing storm tracks were substantially altered in response to low soil moisture content in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. (See Appendix B and this Foreword)

The atmosphere demonstrated a similar drought relief performance in 2011. The three year California drought was cured during February and March 2011 by a succession of well placed and perfectly timed cyclones and fronts. Nonlinear cyclone formations forced the polar front jet stream south to Mexico. An upper level cold reservoir formed offshore of California and a steady succession of cyclones and cold fronts generated in the cold air, extinguished the drought (See Appendix A).

The atmosphere must have sensed soil moisture content in California below a threshold lower than during the previous two years. The atmosphere then drastically moved the prevailing storm track south from the Pacific Northwest directly into California.

Last year's blistering summer had nothing to do with global warming. High altitude cold air reservoirs off the West and East Coasts trapped sinking, warm air over the U.S. throughout the summer (See Appendix B from June through September, 2012).

The prevailing climate science wisdom holds that heat waves and drought serve only to make humans uncomfortable and cause wildfires that destroy forests and human structures. Also, since wildfires are the result of anthropogenic global warming, humans must reduce carbon dioxide emissions from use of fossil fuels in order to prevent heat waves, drought, and wildfires.

President Obama's criticism of Governor Perry for denying climate change when wildfires were raging in Texas, is typical of this mindset. It assumes that wildfires have been caused by manmade global warming, since the Industrial Revolution. This is nonsense.

Wildfires have been cleaning the planet since prehistoric times. According to the Associated Press (May 3, 2012), the black-backed woodpecker, a bird that survived for millions of years by eating beetle larvae in burned trees, is in danger of going extinct in parts of the West. Fire suppression, post-fire salvage logging and commercial thinning of forests is eliminating the bird's habitat. As a consequence Pine Beetles are threatening the timber industry in mountains of the West.

Thus the atmosphere intentionally causes heat waves and droughts as a vital planet housekeeping function. Man's interference is detrimental to forests.

May 18, 2012 Breaking News-A lame stream media TV News broadcast today, blamedwildfires in Colorado and Arizona on climate change. This is not news. It is propaganda to support President Obama's economy killing war against fossil fuels and carbon dioxide.

Returning to the New York Times article, Gillis writes, "And by a 2-1 margin, the public says the weather has been getting worse, rather than better, in recent years."

The U.S. Government is promoting this propaganda. NOAA published a finding recently that there were a record 14 extreme weather events that each cost the U.S. more than a billion dollars during 2011. NOAA infers that this is the result of anthropogenic global warming but it is obviously due to an increase of manmade infrastructure, buildings and vehicles.

In his Climate Reality Project, infomercial slide show on September 15, 2011, Al Gore tried to convince an Internet audience that global warming/climate change is responsible for extreme weather events. What is his basis?

Al Gore wrote, in his book, "Earth in the Balance" (1992):

"the skeptics argue that some feature of the global climate system may serve as a kind of thermostat to regulate temperatures and keep them within the narrow range we are used to-in spite of our apparent willingness to allow the blanket of greenhouse gases to thicken" (89).

"I think this vain hope for a magic thermostat goes back to an unwillingness to recognize the new relationship between humankind and the earth, in which we really can now affect the entire global environment. And thus far, the search for a powerful enough thermostat has proved to be fruitless" (90).

Gore is stating the rationale for one of the most important assumptions used to support global warming/climate change - "Weather is random" or "There is no God." That is, weather cannot be targeted to perform specific planet housekeeping functions. As the following corollaries demonstrate, this hypothesis is nonsense.

Corollary-Since weather is random, extreme weather events serve no useful purpose other than to cause death and destruction to humanity and its' structures. This gives NOAA, Gore and members of the climate science community, license to blame manmade global warming for the cost in lives and dollars of extreme weather events. It is justification for President Obama to shoot the U.S. economy in the foot by forcing reduction of fossil fuel use with legislation such as cap and trade or entering into agreements with other suicidal countries or treaties to enrich UN functionaries.

The corollary is false. Extreme weather events, man's nemesis since the beginning of recorded history, are the planet's principal method of housekeeping. How else can Earth maintain its beautiful blue-green surface? Floods flush silt, rot, decay, weeds and animal waste from streams, rivers and flood plains. Disease, insects and vermin would decimate forests and verdant plains without floods and wildfires. Hurricanes, tornadoes and severe straight-line winds clean out dead trees, branches and underbrush. Heat waves and droughts bring wildfires that clean out underbrush and overgrown forests. Without this upkeep of Earth's trees and plants, the planet would succumb to more rapid erosion and desertification. It would become a barren rock. There is no evidence of more extreme weather now than in the past. But if there is more extreme weather now, it must be to clean out the increasing filth from humans and their domesticated animals.

Corollary-Since weather is random, the atmosphere cannot protect itself and the planet from man's activities, specifically an overload of carbon dioxide. When manmade carbon dioxide concentration doubles from today's level, the planet will reach a tipping point from which it will plunge into a permanent worldwide heat wave and drought.

On its face, this fear mongering is absurd. Weather has regulated Earth's temperature and fresh water balance within the narrow range necessary to sustain plants and animals since they appeared on Earth. Carbon dioxide was ten times thicker when 100 ton herbivores roamed verdant plains and lowlands. Lush vegetation supplied increased oxygen and helped cool the planet so that large dinosaurs did not overheat. Later mammals grew to 17 tons. As volcanism abated, carbon dioxide concentration declined, plants and trees thinned out and mega fauna went extinct. Man's use of fossil fuels cannot replicate those early high carbon dioxide levels and will certainly not cause the planet to dry up.

Corollary-Since weather is random, the atmosphere cannot target heat waves and droughts for relief. This supports computer models that project unending and expanding droughts. These projections are the stuff of fear mongering about the Earth reaching a tipping point into a catastrophic dry climate.

To the contrary, the atmosphere maintains the planetary heat and fresh water balance by exercising thermostatic and hydrologic control with well coordinated weather events. Satellite evidence in this paper demonstrates that the atmosphere senses low soil moisture content and cures it by altering storm tracks to target droughts with precipitation.

For example, the three year California drought was cured during February and March 2011 by a succession of well placed and perfectly timed cyclones and fronts (See Appendix A).

The Southwest U.S. drought was targeted throughout the winter of 2012 by an unusual and persistent storm track from Arizona through Texas. (See Appendix B and the Foreword).

This capability of the atmosphere to control planet housekeeping functions is demonstrated by the following examples of the atmosphere targeting low soil moisture content for hydration.

Relieving the Southwest Drought

This is the National Weather Service Wind and Temperature analysis near 3.5 miles high for 7 AM E.S.T. May 4, 2012. A cold pocket, having originated over Lake Baikal, Siberia nine days earlier, is on the coast over Washington and Oregon. Normally a cold pocket would move east from here into Canada. But at this point the atmosphere must sense that soil moisture content is low in Texas.

The cold pocket over the Pacific Northwest separated into two cyclones. One strengthened as it moved south through Idaho and Nevada into Arizona where it begins the Southwest storm track. Arizona was the initial target for most upper level cyclones on the Southwest storm track during the winter and spring of 2012. How the atmosphere routinely found this target 1000 miles south of the prevailing storm track, after the long trip across the Pacific Ocean, is impossible to explain.

Warm air north of the Arizona cyclone forces it to remain on the Southwest storm track into Texas.

This is an infrared temperature image. Warm air at high altitude north of the Southwest storm track extends downward all the way to the surface.

This is a water vapor image. Converging winds flowing around upper level cyclones over Arizona and near Hawaii have opened dry air windows to space. This allows very intense long wave radiation to flow from the warm ocean surface into space. This cools the ocean surface in order to balance heating of the land surface north of the Southwest storm track. Surface temperature measurement systems do not sense this ocean temperature cooling because heavier cold water sinks and is replaced by warm water. Thus the land temperature increase is falsely recorded as global warming.

With this storm passage, more than 18 inches of rain was recorded by twelve Texas cities in the Texas drought region. Several locations flooded with more than 5 to 9 inches of rain in one day. How the atmosphere senses low soil moisture content and forces the Southwest storm track to address the problem is nothing short of miraculous.

Upper air heat that extends all the way to the surface moves east forcing the storm to stay on the Southwest storm track.

The window to space surrounds the Texas storm and extends to the East coast from the cyclone that moved over the Great Lakes when the original cold pocket separated into two cyclones over the Pacific Northwest. Presumably the window to space for outgoing radiation balances some of the land surface heating that forces the Southwest storm track to transit Texas. This coordination is remarkable.

The Great Lakes cyclone is receiving supplemental water vapor from the Pacific Ocean while the Texas cyclone is not. Evidently, the Texas cyclone receives enough moisture from the Gulf of Mexico while the Great Lakes cyclone does not. This amazing selective supplementation, which takes place throughout the winter and spring, is anticipated by convection over the Pacific Ocean appearing well before the mid-continent cyclone requires additional moisture. Again the coordination is incredible.

The processes of increasing soil moisture content over Texas and maintaining the planet heat balance was intricately choreographed by two upper level cold cyclones and a warm ridge between them. This amazing sequence of events demonstrates that Gore's "No magic thermostat" assumption is false.

These were not random occurrences. Similar intricately orchestrated events happened throughout the winters of 2011 and 2012. All are documented in Appendices A, B and this Foreword.

It does not take a very religious person to see the hand of God at work in the atmosphere maintaining Earth's heat and fresh water balance. How else can it be explained that the atmosphere senses low soil moisture content from a great distance, alters storm tracks and taps into water vapor rivers from thousands of miles away, to hydrate the soil and maintain Earth's heat balance in the process?

Four days later, the Southwest storm track has been extended through the deep south to relieve the Southeast drought and the East and New England dry spells.

Another cold pocket on the Southwest storm track has again targeted the Texas drought. Warm air trapping this storm is reflected in high temperatures at the surface.

This cold pocket also transited the Pacific Ocean from the Western Pacific and entered the U.S. over the Pacific Northwest. There can be little doubt that curing the Texas drought is not a random process.

These intricately coordinated events over an entire winter and spring are so orderly and accurately targeted that the hand of God must be involved. I know of no other explanation for this miraculous thermostatic and hydrologic balancing of the planet's temperature and fresh water distributions. The scientific consensus that dismisses Earth'smagic thermostat as a fairy tale of skeptics turns out to be misinformed.

Relieving the Southeast Drought

A low amplitude polar front segment is moving into Northern California. Warm temperatures in the Southwest are indicative of the late afternoon. Blow off clouds extend into Nevada.

Three days later, a cyclone has formed(nonlinear) and pulled the front into a high amplitude orientation entering British Columbia. Record high temperatures are recorded throughout the Rockies.

Upper level winds, traced in a water vapor image, arch over the Rockies and plunge into the Southeast. Record high temperatures in the Rockies are caused by this high altitude ridge. Sinking air under the ridge warms the air column all the way to the surface. Water vapor is invisible to the human eye and does not impede sunlight. But it absorbs and radiates heat back to the surface while the sun bakes the surface. This is the same process that resulted in blistering summer temperatures and record warm temperatures this winter.

Global warming was not involved.

The reason for the large undulation of the polar front jet stream is now apparent. A cold-core cyclone has formed over the Gulf of Mexico south of Mississippi. Diverging winds result in rainfall over the Southeast drought region.

This storm moved up the East Coast and became the "Snowpril" nor'easter that dumped a foot or more of snow in western Pensylvania and New York. Moderate to heavy rainfall fellalong the extremely dry East coast from the Florida Keys to New England.

Throughout the winter, the atmosphere contorted circulation patterns and polar front segments in order to relieve the Southwest drought. A side effect was record high temperatures in the North and East. Now it is repeating this housekeeping function on the East Coast. Accordingly, record high temperatures are now found in the West.

This is the National Weather Service wind and temperature analysis near 3.5 miles high. Nonlinear cyclogenesis at this level over the Eastern Pacific Ocean forced the polar front jet stream into Canada over the Rockies and then into a deep cold trough over the Mississippi River and Ohio River Valleys. The cold-core cyclone that was south of Mississippi is now a cold pocket in Florida. It will move up the East Coast and become the "Snowpril" Nor'easter bringing over a foot of snow to western Pennsylvania and New York and heavy rainfall to the parched Eastern Seaboard.

We just witnessed the atmosphere generate a cyclone in the Eastern Pacific Ocean that caused the polar front jet stream to abruptly change shape in order to form a cold-core cyclone in the Gulf of Mexico which later became the "Snowpril" nor'easter. It brought much needed rainfall to the dry Southeast, East Coast and New England. Can you honestly believe that sequence of unusual events was random? If so, try the rest of the examples in Appendix B and this Foreword during winterand spring 2012. Each sequence of complex events had a specific purpose-to relieve low soil moisture content. An explanation of these processes follows:

Climate in the U.S. during winter begins with a frigid column of air that develops, in the Sun's shadow, from the surface through the Stratosphere over the Arctic. The Polar Night Vortex, a west to east flow extending to the Equator, sets up around this cold column. As winter progresses, cold air near the base of the column moves toward the Equator. A succession of upper level cold pockets and cyclones move out of Siberia into the Polar Night Vortex. Diverging winds in advance of these cold pockets and cyclones create surface cyclones that move cold air downward toward the Equator and warm air upward toward the North Pole. The upper level warm air loses heat rapidly by radiation into space and reenters the cold column around the Pole.

Each cyclone creates a polar front segment in mid-latitudes by compacting cold air against warm. Cyclones and attached polar front segments, seen as a high altitude cloud deck, move generally north and east in the Polar Night Vortex, much like a tug and barge in a wide river. Except these barges do not seem well behaved. Barges often move ahead of the tug. Barges often become oriented across and block the flow. After moving across the North Pacific Ocean, each barge eventually disappears as the lower level of the polar front segment is blocked by the North American Rocky Mountains. Miraculously this intricately choreographed journey releases an upper level cyclone offshore of the West Coast. In most cases during winter 2012, this cyclone moved abruptly south into Arizona.

The process of transferring cyclonic spin from Siberia to the U.S. resulted in unerringly targeting drought with precipitation from a succession of storms over the same storm track. This well orchestrated process targeted the Southwest drought with an effective and persistent succession of storms from Arizona to the most severe drought in Texas throughout most of the 2012 winter. On more than half the days of winter a cold pocket or cyclone was located in Arizona, New Mexico or Texas. Rain fell in Texas 54% of the time. Rainfall in Texas exceeded 2011 winter rainfall by 240%.

This storm track required that warm air, north of the storm, trap it along a southerly track. Also, cyclone and polar front segment orientations crossing the Pacific Ocean often resulted in frigid Siberian air flowing into Alaska and being blocked from flowing into Canada and the U.S. As a result the winter of 2012 is best known for high surface temperature records in the northern U.S. and cold temperature records in Alaska.

On occasion the storm track took a respite from the Southwest. It moved southeast from the Pacific Northwest into the Central Plains. This storm track invariably resulted in a tornado outbreak and snow across the Midwest into the Northeast. It served to more evenly distribute precipitation in the U.S. Again, the atmosphere demonstrated its capability to target and relieve low soil moisture content.

One of the major TV Newscasts interviewed a climate expert to determine the cause of the late season Snowpril Noreaster. According to the expert, La Nina caused the jet stream to bring cold air down out of Canada. This pathetic answer is typical of that from the present generation of so-called climate experts. Intensity and direction of the polar front jet stream is a function of cold-core cyclone formation and intensification(See satellite imagery evidence in the appendices and this Foreword).

La Nina had nothing to do with the Eastern Pacific cyclogenesis that changed the jet stream direction resulting in "Snowpril." If there were ever a winter that did not conform to La Nina, 2012 is it. In fact ENSO conditions are neutral. That means there is no La Nina.

Even if La Nina were present, it is preposterous to believe that a 1 or 2 degree Fahrenheit temperature anomaly on the equator can influence the polar front jet stream. For La Nina to set up the dual cyclones of a nor'easter is even more ridiculous. This line of reasoning is what the country gets when government dollars shape science curricula.

ENSO, for U.S. weather and climate prediction, became the ploy for a National Science Foundation program to employ physical oceanographers in the mid-60's. Toward that end it was eminently successful. NOAA, established in 1970, gave ownership of the National Weather Service to oceanographers. The same thing happened to the Naval Weather Service in 1976. It is remarkable that the weather services can still function with the plethora of oceanographers and climate experts promoting ENSO and global warming as weather and climate forecast systems. None of these systems have skill.

Justin Gillis also writes, "A large majority of climate scientists say the climate is shifting in ways that could cause serious impacts and they cite the human release of greenhouse gases as a principal cause."

These climate scientists arevictims of the climate change scam. They invested four to six years and spent a fortune for a university education that failed them. As a result they are unaware that atmospheric dynamics are nonlinear. For that reason, models that predict "climate is shifting in ways that could cause serious impacts due to human release of greenhouse gases as a principal cause...," have no skill.

These climate scientists were educated to believe that U.S. weather and climate could be predicted from small Pacific Ocean temperature anomalies (ENSO). Evidently they were not informed that such techniques were discredited in the 1950's.

During the winter of 2011, nonlinear cyclogenesis forced the polar front jet stream south to Mexico. A steady succession of cyclones and cold fronts generated in cold air off the West coast, extinguished the drought. Climate scientists would have sworn that this abrupt polar front jet stream move southward was caused by El Nino. But there was no El Nino. La Nina was in town. The winter of 2011 was so embarrassing to the ENSO folks that the NASA ENSO expert denied the existence of La Nina. Meanwhile the NOAA ENSO expert blamed La Nina for all of the snow. Global warming experts also took credit for the record snow. They did not take credit for the record cold temperatures though.

Winter 2012 was also embarrassing for ENSO and global warming experts. After taking credit for the snow in 2011, no one could explain the dearth of snow in 2012 even though La Nina and global warming had not changed.

La Nina was blamed for the Southwest drought. But La Nina was still in effect as the Southwest drought was being hydrated in 2012. La Nina is supposed to move polar front jet streams and storm tracks north. These upper level features moved south in both 2011 and 2012. La Nina is static. The polar front jet stream is a moving sinusoid with a three to five day period. No teleconnection can bridge that gap.

Elsewhere Mr. Gillis writes that 97% of climate scientists attest that anthropogenic global warming/climate change is real. It is about time for these ENSO and global warming experts to speak up and admit that climate change is a hoax and the UN and Obama Administration are using it to scam American taxpayers.

April 18, 2012

AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM

American Exceptionalism was on display on April 14, 15 and 16, 2012 and during the previous week. The Storm Prediction Center of the National Weather Service scored one of its best forecasts ever. It issued a Day 3 outlook for a moderate risk ofsevere storms across the Central Plains.Twenty-four hours in advance, it predicted a severe tornado outbreak for the Plains states. 166 tornadoes were reported in the target area in three days. Due primarily to the advance warning, only 6 deaths were reported. Those happened at night with silent sirens as the storm displayed a nearly unpredictable nonlinear discontinuous retrogression (see satellite images).

The Storm Prediction Center accomplishment is a tribute to the expertise of today's front line specialists and to generations of government, private sector and university scientists and engineers. Storm prediction is an example of a highly successful government-private sector partnership that saves property and lives and influences almost everyone's life and livelihood, the economy and the course of history. More on that later.

Frigid air from Siberia is poised like a Tsunami about to engulf California and the Southwest. Warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico is pouring into Texas and the Southern Plains, where storms are already popping up ahead of a previous less powerful cold pocket and cold front.

At the National Meteorological Center in Clinton, Maryland, a highly advanced Numerical Weather Prediction model has issued guidance that the two diverse air masses will come together in the Plains states. National Weather Service specialists have been placed on alert. Specialized computer models at the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) in Norman Oklahoma are preparing watches and warnings for specific locations in the area. Satellite imagery loops with upper winds superimposed are updated every 15 minutes. National Weather Service wind, temperature and humidity charts are consulted as soon as they become available. Doppler radar sites are ready. Doppler radar analysts are preparing for fast and furious watch and warning operations when storms begin to form. Storm observers are being deployed. First responders are being alerted. Most of these operations were coordinated on the Internet, a weather service invention. Sorry Al Gore. This happened in 1961; well before your invention. More on that later, too.

Thirty-six hours later and thirty hours before the first tornado touches down in Kansas, the National Weather Service wind and temperature analysis, at about 3.5 miles high, displays a massive cold cyclone with a -32 degree Celsius center, riding the crest of the Siberian air mass tsunami. The polar front, indicated by the tight band of temperature lines, encircles the cold air then weakens and moves into Kansas then turns north into the Dakotas and Canada. That front, controlled by the cold cyclone, will play an important role in thunderstorm and tornado formation.

A cold pocket that came ashore over Southern California with a cold front is over Nebraska. Warm air over the Rockies was unable to hold it south along the Southwest storm track because the massive cold outbreak from Siberia is forcing it north. Nevertheless, this cold pocket and cold front are not done yet. As if to presage impending disaster, the combination spawns an afternoon tornado that seriously damages Norman, Oklahoma, home of the Storm Prediction Center.

The Storm Prediction Center did not need this wake-up call. It had already issued an unusual warning of extremely dangerous and catastrophic weather for the Plains states.

Under the massive upper air cyclone, the frigid Siberian tsunami is moving through Oregon and California into Nevada. Snow is falling on the I-5 Grapevine between Southern and Central California and in higher elevations.

The previous cold pocket is over Minnesota. Cold air, (light blue, green, yellow and brown cloud tops) behind that cold front is in the Rockies and the Plains. It is responsible for the high cloud mass in Oklahoma that spawned the Norman, Oklahoma tornado two hours ago. Warm air from Mexico is pushing into Arizona and New Mexico. The major clash between air masses is gathering.

It is late afternoon in Woodward, Oklahoma. The tail end of a squall line extends over Woodward. Sirens sound and a tornado touches down briefly one hour after the time of this satellite image. Woodward residents know from experience that as the sirens become quiet it is not time to relax their vigil.

Upper level westerly winds have moved the squall line away from the cold cyclone responsible for its formation. Other squall lines try to form as the cyclone moves north. This discontinuous retrogression does not prevent Thurman, Iowa from being obliterated by a tornado extending from a supercell as the squall line moves east.

Several attempts to form new squall lines were aborted but a new cold cyclone is moving east through New Mexico. A tiny sliver of clouds forming in west Texas heralds formation of the next squall line in advance of the new cyclone. This discontinuous retrogression, almost impossible to forecast, is very unfortunate in that it happens at night when most people are sleeping.

Five hours later, the new squall line is fully formed. During its formation, Woodward Oklahoma was demolished, eighteen minutes after midnight. Lightning rendered the sirens inoperative. Consequently six deaths were recorded.

The cold cyclone centered over the boundaries between Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado was responsible for the early tornadoes in Kansas and Nebraska and the supercell that moved into Iowa and destroyed Thurman. The cold pocket in New Mexicowas responsible for the squall line that wiped out Woodward, Oklahoma after midnight.

Jet stream winds are accelerated by the upper cold cyclones. This causes speed divergence and strong upward vertical winds. At the same time, winds fan out eastward causing directional divergence and upward vertical motion giving the squall line clouds their arrowhead shape. Supercells imbedded in the squall lines spawn the most intense tornadoes.

Satellite film loops with upper winds superimposed show the speed and directional wind divergence much better than does this fixed-time wind analysis. Satellite film loops are available in real-time at www.ssd.noaa.gov, click on geostationary, then click on Tropical Atlantic or Tropical Pacific. I prefer Water-Vapor, RGB and Rainbow images but all are interesting. Film loops are on the right side of the table.

Origin of the April 14, 15 and 16, 2012 Tornado Outbreak Storm

Eleven days before becoming a major tornado outbreak storm in the U.S. Central Plains, a cold pocket appears east of Lake Baikal, Siberia, moving rapidly south.

Five days later, it is a large cold pocket linking up with the polar front south of Kamchatka.

In two more days, it has become a cyclone, escorting its polar front segment, south of the western tip of the Aleutian Islands.

Three days before controlling a major tornado outbreak in the Plains, the cyclone is south of Kodiak Island, helping the polar front jet stream push a frigid Siberian air tsunami toward a rendezvous with warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico. The rest of the story begins at the top of the page titled, "American Exceptionalism."

Satellite and other data prove that this tornado outbreak is an example of an extreme weather event controlled by high altitude, nonlinear processes. Global warming, a tiny increase in surface temperature due to radiation from greenhouse gases, had no apparent influence on the origination and evolution of this storm system. Those who claim that extreme weather events are caused by global warming are either ignorantor crooks.

To Be Continued

April 3, 2012

A cluster, of four supercell thunderstorms extending from a squall line, surrounds Dallas-Fort Worth at the time that tornadoes devastated the area.

This is the water vapor image at the same time as the above image. Note: The last supercell to form is just a little dot at the end of the squall line.

This is a temperature image showing the squall line over cool temperatures with high temperatures behind the squall line. This is the reverse of the normal temperature distribution.

At the exact location of the supercell cluster, high altitude winds show strong directional divergence with weak speed divergence.

Life History of the Dallas-Fort Worth Tornado Outbreak Storm of April 3, 2012.

Ten days before it spawned tornadoes over Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, a storm originates as a cold pocket in frigid air at high altitude over Siberia, west of the Sea of Okhotsk.

Three days later, the cold pocket was south of Kamchatka.

Moving rapidly in cold air, the cold pocket reached the dateline six days before the Dallas-Fort Worth tornado outbreak.

North of Hawaii, the cold pocket began to develop a frontal tail signifying that it was extending toward the surface with low level winds pushing cold air against warmer air.

Low level clouds indicate that the cold pocket is becoming a cold-core cyclone as it merges with the polar front segment that has already gone ashore over Oregon.

Cyclogenesis is complete. Snow is falling in imported Siberian air at higher elevations from California to Washington.

This is the National Weather Service temperature and wind analysis near 3.5 miles high, six hours before the tornado outbreak. The cyclone from Siberia develops directional and speed divergence in high level winds over central Texas. This provides uplift of unstable moist air from the Gulf of Mexico forming a squall line, with supercells and tornadoes, right over Dallas-Fort Worth. Rain and hail fell in East Texas.

The Southwest storm track moved from Siberia through Arizona to Texas, as it did through the entire winter, evidently to relieve the Southwest drought. Unusually warm air north and east of the storm maintains the storm on its deep south track. This accounts for the warm temperature records set this winter.

Climate change advocates like to blame extreme weather events on man made global warming. This tornado event and the storm that spawned it were creations of upper level nonlinear processes. Climate change models cannot replicate these atmospheric dynamics. The satellite images demonstrate that manmade climate change is junk science.

March 18, 2012

Manmade climate change is a junk science scam intended to make politicians and their cronies wealthy at the expense of taxpayers. The consensus of scientists that insist manmade climate change is settled science have little or no knowledge of the atmospheric dynamics presented here and in the appendices. If they did, they would know that atmospheric dynamics is nonlinear. By definition weather and climate cannot be predicted beyond a few days. Climate prediction models have little or no skill. That precludes blaming fossil fuels for climate change.

Nevertheless our President is convinced that fossil fuels are evil. He has based much of his governing strategy on the global warming and climate change hoax(See also www.climatechangehoax.com). Before he was elected, President Obama announced that his energy policy "would necessarily cause the cost of electricity to skyrocket." He threatened to bankrupt any new coal operated utility. None have been built on his watch while the rest of the world is taking advantage of this least expensive source of energy to leapfrog the U.S. economy. Recently a press release explaining President Obama's delay of the XL pipeline project gave as a reason-"fighting climate change." The Interior Department has been dragging its feet in giving approval to offshore and onshore drilling projects. The EPA has labeled carbon dioxide a pollutant and is threatening to shutter frakking operations.

President Obama subsidizes battery operated automobiles for the wealthy with blue-collar worker's taxes. President Obama subsidizes rail projects that will be money losers for life. All of this waste of taxpayer money still requires fossil fuels to supply the electricity. Solar panels and windmills can never satisfy these new energy eating, federal deficit increasing abominations. Wind mills kill so many raptors, bats and birds that a return of rodent and insect plagues is around the corner. President Obama promotes nuclear power, while one after another, advanced countries swear off this deficit increasing genocidal potential.

President Obama approved sending one billion dollars to the UN in order to promote the climate change scam in third world countries. This is only a down payment. The UN has asked for $100 billion dollars from wealthy nations. This is a thinly veiled bribe for third world dictators to become filthy rich. The Obama Department of Education brainwashes our school children to believe that driving SUV's and eating cheeseburgers is going to cause a massive drought next century (This nonsense is part of the fifth grade curriculum for an East Coast State north of I-40).

Twelve large scale computer models coordinated by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted that a drought apocalypse will occur in 2100 if we fail to stop using fossil fuels. Evidently no one told the modelers that atmospheric dynamics are nonlinear making climate unpredictable. No one told their students that the ancient Greenhouse Theory and more recent ENSO models are woefully inadequate at predicting climate. The record, on official climate prediction skill is pitiful, but not unexpected. The appendices to this document show conclusively from satellite observations that weather and climate change are shaped by nonlinear (unpredictable) processes.

Appendices A and B prove conclusively that notwithstanding climate prediction models the atmosphere can extinguish a drought at will. A major nonlinear change in storm tracks wiped out the three-year California drought in February 2011(Appendix A). U.S climate was turned topsy-turvy by nonlinear processes, in order to relieve the Southwest drought in January, February and March 2012. These months set warm temperature records in order for an unusual winter storm track to move from Arizona through Texas into the Southeast (Foreword and Appendix B). Needless to say no climate prediction system forecast these extreme climate change events.

Evidence suggests that the atmosphere's response to the Southwest drought is responsible for the unusual cold and deep snow in Alaska and unusual warmth in the U.S., during the winter of 2012. High altitude cold pockets generated over Siberia controlled the processes that shaped these climate changes. This conclusion was made possible by the genius of NOAA and NASA scientists and engineers who developed instrumentation and software for Geostationary Orbiting Environmental Satellites (GOES) stationed over the Equator. The brilliant mix of infrared sensors on these satellites made possible the capability to follow the evolution of essential atmospheric processes from their inception. GOES imagery, McIdas cloud-motion winds and National Weather Service upper air temperature and wind charts demonstrate the evolution of these profound climate changing events.

No climate prediction models are capable of predicting the nonlinear processes responsible for these climate changes.

SOUTHWEST DROUGHT RELIEF

February 2012

LAST DAY OF WINTER REVEALS REASON FOR WARM WINTER

If anyone asks, "Why has this winter been so warm?" The answer is not global warming. This image of cloud top temperatures, on the last day of winter, tells the tale. Heavy rain is falling in drought stricken areas. Southerly winds in the East supply moisture and heat from the Gulf and West Atlantic. Cold air from Siberia is being pumped south along the Rockies. Throughout the winter the atmosphere has concentrated on curing the Southwest drought by targeting it with a steady succession of storms. Although the drought persists, precipitation in Texas during the winter of 2012 exceeded that in 2011 by 240%. More than half the days of this winter found a storm between Southern California and Texas. Each storm required a combination of cold and warm air to generate precipitation. Warm air was necessarily concentrated in the north and east to force storms on a track through the drought.

Warm air trapped this storm over Texas for four days. During that period, 15.6 inches of rain was reported by twelve Texas cities. Louisiana reported 14.4 inches. Oklahoma reported 7.0 inches and Kansas recorded 10.3 inches. All of these states were experiencing drought conditions.

A consequence of the Southwest storm track was the polar front over the Pacific Ocean channeling frigid air from Siberia into Alaska where cold temperature and snowfall records were set. Most of that cold air was blocked from flowing over the Rockies into the U.S.(See Appendix B for January and February 2012). This too contributed to the unusually warm winter over the lower 48 States.

Water vapor at high altitude reveals the intensity of much needed rainfall over Texas and the Plains. Water vapor is invisible to human eyes. Sunlight is not impeded by water vapor. But water vapor absorbs and radiates heat from Earth. So beneath the white areas, surface temperatures are elevated. This is insignificant to humans in the cold air inflow over the Rockies. On the other hand, inflow of moisture at the surface and water vapor aloft from the Gulf of Mexico, apparent west of Florida, makes surface temperature oppressive to humans while it enhances rainfall.

This image combines low clouds and high cloud blow-off. Thunderstorm clusters can be seen. Tornadoes appeared in Texas, Arkansas and Minnesota. The incredible genius of NOAA and NASA scientists and engineers is responsible for this and the previous images, available 24/7, that reveal important features of water vapor and cloud cover from space, used for forecasting extreme weather events. Cloud motion winds, computed from these images, are also of great importance for weather prediction. These images are one of a multitude of benefits received by Americans from the U.S. Space Program.

Yes, I said this before. But it bears repeating. For an old timer in the weather business, these data available for free to the public in near real-time, are unbelievable. Taxpayers got their money's worth. It is a shame that federal dollars pour into junk science research at the expense of satellite aided weather and climate research. Looking for a research project? How about relating cold pockets in Siberia to storms in the U.S-or formation of diverging winds aloft and tornado development (See next section)? Or water vapor rivers and precipitation efficiency? Or effect of polar front segments on the Polar Night Vortex and cold outbreaks half-way around the world? Or cold lows on hurricane intensity? Computer models do not do this well. Cursory examples appear in this Foreword, the appendices and www.climatechangehoax.com. These uses, and many more, of satellite imagery, might help find a real breakthrough to improved longer term weather and climate forecasts.

McIdas cloud motion winds reveal the unusual complexity of this storm. Cold air from Siberia is pouring into the Southwest with the polar front jet stream. The cold-core cyclone over New Mexico and the polar front, force winds to turn toward the north and accelerate. Strong temperature contrast across the polar front contributes to acceleration and divergence of upper winds. This results in thunderstorms, hail and tornadoes all the way from Texas, through the Plains to Minnesota.

This is the National Weather Service temperature and wind chart near 3.5 miles high. The tightly packed bundle of temperature lines locates the polar front. It moves ashore over California drops south to Mexico then heads north through Texas and the Plains into Canada and all the way to Hudson Bay. A cold pocket with a -32 degree Celsius temperature is located over Arizona. Warm air floods into the East U.S. and Canada. Diverging wind (direction and speed change), over Texas and over the polar front in the Plains, provides strong uplift of warm moist air creating thunderstorms, hail and tornadoes.

The cyclone over Wyoming is unusual and ingenious. It does double duty by accelerating southerly winds over the Plains causing divergence and strong uplift. At the same time it pumps cold air south into the cold pocket, reinforcing the polar front and upper level diverging winds.

There can be little doubt that this unusually complex storm system is intended to helprelieve the Southwest and Plains drought. Unusual warmth in the East is merely a side effect.

Evolution of this storm, from its roots in Siberia, is included in Appendix B with other similar storms that passed through the U.S. in March 2012.

SIBERIA COORDINATES U.S. DROUGHT RELIEF

WINTER 2012

A weak cold pocket moves into Arizona. Warm air over Canada is forcing this cold pocket into the Southwest storm track from Arizona through Texas. This storm track has been relieving the drought throughout the winter. Upward vertical motion, caused by diverging winds, is forcing precipitation over Arizona and New Mexico. This storm track will result in the twelve cities of Texas reporting 4 inches of rain in four days.

Note: Cold air dips into the East, behind the polar front and thermal wind jet stream.

The strong upper level cyclone over Southern California made landfall as a cold pocket over Washington State two days ago. Unusually warm air, moving ashore over the Pacific Northwest, is forcing the cyclone to enter the Southwest storm track. Twelve Texas cities will report nearly 14 inches of rain over the next four days.

Note: The polar front dips into the upper Midwest. Frequent upper level cyclones on the Southwest storm track have pushed unusually warm air into the Midwest and East this winter. This accounts for some of the record high temperatures during the winter of 2012.

The question arises, why was this storm so much stronger and more efficient in bringing 350% more rain to Texas, than the storm five days earlier? The answer requires a look in the rear view mirror to the origination of these storms in Siberia and their long track across the North Pacific Ocean.

Three days after its appearance as a cold pocket over Lake Baikal, Siberia, a cyclone, identified by its hammerhead like cloud deck has pushed cold air into warm air resulting in a polar front segment trailing behind. The coldest clouds (yellow) result from strong uplift caused by diverging winds in advance of cyclonic spin. Eight days from today, remnants of this system will form a weak cold pocket over Arizona.

An expanded hammerhead cloud deck is trailed by a spin off cold pocket that has not yet extended to the surface where it can form another polar front segment.

As the expanding complex moves over the Mid-Pacific Ocean, the cyclone and several spin off cold pockets begin to trail the polar front segment that is being accelerated by its own thermal wind jet stream.

The original hammerhead cloud deck is a cold-core cyclone, north of Hawaii, trailed by a polar front segment extending into the Western Pacific. Jet stream winds accelerated by thermal winds over the polar front are moving this cyclone rapidly into a more powerful stalled cyclone. Thermal winds over the polar front segment trailing from the stalled cyclone are heading northwest. A collision is unavoidable. A cold pocket forming a hammerhead cloud deck is following the action.

The original cyclone has been ripped apart by the stronger cyclone. The hammerhead cold pocket following behind is now an elongated cyclone behind a hammerhead cold pocket merging with the polar front. Siberian air is heading for Hawaii. It is being blocked from the lower 48 States and, as the major cyclone moves into the Gulf of Alaska, Siberian air will be pushed into Alaska. This cyclone and polar front orientation, recurring throughout the winter accounts for cold temperature and snowfall records in Alaska while the U.S. set warm temperature and low snowfall records.

In the collision aftermath, Hawaii is shivering. The powerful cyclone is over the Aleutian Islands blowing Siberian air into Alaska. The cold pocket that merged with the polar front is now its escorting cyclone. A cold pocket at its southern extremity is all that is left of the elongated cyclone.

The cold pocket merged with the polar front segment. It is now a cyclone west of Washington. Only a cold pocket remains at the southern end of the elongated cyclone.

At long last, after many cyclonic spin iterations crossing the pond, a cold pocket appears over Washington and another cold pocket approaches Central California.

Two cold pockets landed on the West Coast after spending nine days crossing the Pacific Ocean. Warm air over Canada will force the southernmost cold pocket to pass over Arizona on its way to Texas to relieve the drought. 4 inches of rain fell on twelve Texas cities. A reason this storm is weaker than the one that will arrive in five days is related to its ocean track. This will be demonstrated with the next storm's arrival.

TO BE CONTINUED

TORNADOES ON FEBRUARY 29, AND MARCH 2, 2012

In one hour, Branson, Missouri will be damaged by one of an outbreak of 33 tornadoes extending from this cold air squall line inMissouri. Harveyville, Kansas was devastated three hours ago. Several lives will be lost in Harrisburg, Illinois in five hours.

Members of the scientific consensus that maintain manmade climate change is settled science, attribute the severity of extreme weather events like this tornado outbreak to a 1.0 degree Fahrenheit increase in average global surface temperature and a 4% increase in atmospheric humidity over the past 30 years. This claim represents a misunderstanding of atmospheric dynamics or an intent to dupe the public for political purposes (Governing policy of the present Administration includes, "fighting climate change." This policy is nonsense. Humans do not cause nor can they fight climate change).

NOAA/NASA Satellite images, cloud motion winds and a National Weather Service chart will demonstrate that dynamical processes resulting in this tornado outbreak have little to do with surface temperature or humidity averaged over the planet. These processes took place primarily at high altitude in frigid air. Temperature and humidity inputs were, on a planetary scale, from local sources.

Eleven days earlier, a cold pocket at high altitude over Siberia near Lake Baikal, became the source of cyclonic spin required to initiate the tornado outbreak that devastated the Midwest and Southeast U.S. on February 29, 2012. Obviously this cold pocket has been in existence for some time. Its original formation was a nonlinear event off the chart.

The Siberian cold pocket is now a cyclone south of Kamchatka in control of a polar front segment. Its cyclonic circulation compressed cold air against warm, controlling front orientation and jet stream wind speeds. Thermal or thickness(column temperature) winds increase jet stream speeds as the temperature contrast increases across the front.

The March 2, 2012 tornado outbreak cold pocket is over Manchuria approaching North Korea. Most, if not all, of the storms that relieved the deep south drought during January and February, 2012, originated as cold pockets in Asia.

Orientation of polar front segments and jet stream speeds influenced the change in the primary storm track that relieved the Texas and deep south drought during that period. Most cold pockets and cyclones came ashore over Southern California and moved into Arizona before heading east. Maintaining the storms in the deep south required warm air north of the storm track. This storm track change resulted in warm temperature records and little snow in the U.S. during the period. Details are provided in Appendix B, January and February 2012 sections.

Cyclones, south and east of Kamchatka that will eventually initiate the U.S. tornado outbreaks of February 29, and March 2, 2012, are like tug boats escorting barges, of their own making, across the North Pacific Ocean in the Polar Night Vortex, a west to east flowing river of air. The purpose of these polar front segments is to move warm air at high altitude to high latitudes where radiation to space discards some of Earth's excess heat. In the process, cold air is moved toward the Equator.

Tracking east over the east Pacific Ocean, the first polar front segment is breaking down because its escorting cyclone has become a weak cold pocket west of the crescent shaped clouds. Without a strong escort cyclone, temperature contrasts across the front will weaken and destroy the front.

Frigid Siberian air has tracked across the Pacific in advance of this front. This cold air is supporting snow in an earlier storm.

Polar front segments escorted by strong cyclones, remain intact and pile up against the Rockies sending frigid Siberian air into Alaska and preventing it from moving into the U.S. These cyclones were then forced south by the next oncoming polar front segment jet stream onto the Southwest storm track. Most Siberian cyclones this winter took this track and helped to relieve the Texas drought (See Appendix B for examples between January and February 2012). This contributed to the record cold and heavy snow in Alaska and the lack of snow and warmth in the U.S.

Less than a day later, the first polar front segment is almost gone. Remnants of the frontform crescent cloud decks east of thecold pocket, south of Valdez, Alaska. This cold pocket will initiate the first tornado outbreak over Nebraska in three days. The following polar front segment is being escorted by its' cold pocket over the west tip of the Aleutian Islands. This cold pocket will initiate the tornado outbreak over Illinois in six days.

The first cold pocket is now located west of Oregon. Its cyclonic circulation is strong enough to generate diverging winds that lift crescent shaped cloud decks on its eastern periphery.

The next tornado outbreak cold pocket is over the western tip of the Aleutian Islands. Its' cyclonic spin will become more pronounced due to interaction with Earth's rotation as itmoves south.

A water vapor river from convection north of Hawaii is supplementing moisture for an earlier snow storm located in Nebraska. Weak convection near the Equator will play a role in the tornado outbreak three days from now.

After seven days over the Pacific Ocean, the first cold pocket moved ashore over Southern California. This is a NOAA/National Weather Service temperature and wind chart for an altitude about 3.5 miles high. Notice that the cold temperature moving onshore is -32 degrees Celsius. This cold outbreak extends all the way to the surface. It brought snow to the I-5 Grapevine between Los Angeles and the Central Valley of California. Snow fell from Arizona into Colorado and then into the Plains and all the way east to New England.

Warm air is being forced northeast ahead of the cold outbreak. This will increase the temperature contrast and thermal (thickness) wind jet stream speeds. The next tornado outbreak cold pocket is south of Kodiak Island.

A 1.0degree Fahenheit average warming of the planet is in the noise of typical daily temperature changes and certainly of no consequence for this storm's progress.

This is the water vapor image of the storm as the first tornado touched down over North Platte, Nebraska. Normally tornadoes form near the cold front. In this case strong winds moved the cold front too far from strong upper level diverging winds near the storm center. Instead strong upper wind divergence near the storm center provided the lift for a surprise squall line to form in the cold air behind the front. Its initial formation is seen here in Nebraska and Kansas. The fully formed cold air squall line that produced most of the tornadoes is seen in the first image (FEB 29 12 06:15 UTC).

The next tornado outbreak cold pocket is offshore of Oregon. The Hawaiian water vapor river for the preceding storm has terminated. Convection, near the Equator sends a water vapor river to the present storm complex. Water vapor rivers supplement low level moisture with ice crystals that allow cloud growth to higher altitudes promoting formation of thunderstorms and super cells under strong upper wind divergence.

A 4% increase in average global moisture content over thirty years is of no consequence for this storm. The atmosphere merely reached out 2000 miles in order to supplement low level moisture from the Gulf of Mexico to fuel this storm. Most of the snow storms and tornado outbreaks of early 2011 were supplemented by water vapor rivers from convection near Hawaii (See appendices G and H).

Diverging upper level winds (direction and speed) over Missouri are responsible for strong upward vertical motion causing violent thunderstorms, hail and tornadoes in the cold air squall line.

Henryville, Indiana is being obliterated at this moment. Marysville, Indiana will disappear in ten minutes. West Liberty, Kentucky will be devastated in two hours and 40 minutes.

This cold air squall line is nearly a carbon copy of the one that passed through this area three days ago. The storm complex is plugged in to the upper level water vapor river from the eastern Pacific Ocean that supplemented the previous tornado outbreak storm now over Nova Scotia.

Diverging winds (direction and speed) over Indiana are responsible for the lift required to power the violent cold air squall line. Low level winds off the Gulf of Mexico have not reached Indiana.

THE SOUTHWEST STORM TRACK OF MARCH 6, THROUGH MARCH 11, 2012

The last three storms were responsible for a snow belt through the upper Midwest and into the Northeast. This storm track, with its own cold air from Siberia, was unusual for this winter. Most storm tracks this winter came ashore over Southern California or Mexico and moved through Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The atmosphere exhibited coordinated nonlinear processes all the way downstream from Siberia to relieve the Southwest drought. (See Appendix B for December, January and February 2012).

Cyclones naturally trend north. Warm air, north and east of the Southwest storm track, prevented the northward trend at least through Texas. It contributed to warm temperature records elsewhere in the U.S. throughout the winter.

A cyclone over Hokkaido is escorting a weak polar front segment. Remains of this cyclonic spin will initiate a Southwest storm track that brings 17 inches of rain to Texas between nine and fourteen days from now.

The Hokkaido cyclone is over the western tip of the Aleutian Islands with its polar front segment draped over the dateline. A cold pocket, in cold Siberian air approaching the Pacific Northwest, will initiate the snow storm and tornado outbreak of March 2, 2012. A snow storm is over Nebraska with tornadoes forming under a squall line in Missouri.

A cold pocket arrives over Queen Charlotte Island on March 5, 2012. The closely spaced bundle of temperature lines locates the polar front and polar front jet stream. The polar front skirts along the Canadian border then descends into the Northeast and crosses into the Atlantic Ocean over North Carolina. Surface temperatures are warm south of the polar front.

Two days later, the cold pocket is now a cold cyclone in Arizona. The Deep South storm track is reestablished. The polar front is over Canada except for a dip into Montana and North Dakota. Southwesterly flow downwind of the cyclone warms the Midwest and East. Warm air prevents the cold-core cyclone from moving north or east.

The polar front segment offshore of the West Coast extends into Canada. Cloud blow-off traces winds pushing a new cold pocket into Arizona.

The polar front jet stream extends into Canada in order to trap the cyclone west of Texas. Slower winds double back into an anticyclone over the West. As these winds proceed further south they take on cyclonic spin and reinforce an elongated cold cyclone from Arizona to Texas.

The elongated cyclone is trapped by warm air into remaining west of Texas. Diverging winds from the cyclone are lifting moisture from the Gulf of Mexico over central and east Texas. Light rain falls over Texas.

A heat dome prevents the cyclone, trapped over New Mexico, from moving north or east. Diverging winds from the cyclone maintain a rain shield over central and east Texas and Louisiana. A high altitude water vapor river from the Pacific Ocean supplements low level moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. Moderate rain falls in Texas.

Diverging winds over moisture from the Gulf of Mexico are responsible for 5 inches of rain reported by several central and east Texas cities in 24 hours.

Moving ashore over the West coast, an elongated cold pocket begins to erode the heat dome. As a result, four days after the cyclone arrived over Arizona it is lifting north out of Texas. During that period twelve Texas cities and two Louisiana border cities reported 17 inches of rainfall.

Southwesterly winds pump unusually warm air over the northern U.S. Unseasonal warm temperatures over the country since the beginning of winter are a side effect of the unusual procession of Southwest storm tracks relieving the drought. Obviously the atmosphere is not averse to causing widespread climate change in order to cure a severe drought on a much smaller scale.

As it lifts into Canada, the storm extends a squall line into cold air behind the cold front similar to the two tornado outbreak storms in early March. Six hours earlier an EF1 tornado touched down in Michigan. Hail was reported in Wisconsin and Michigan. A water vapor river from Hawaii continues to humidify the storm.

TORNADO LABS ACCOMPANY DROUGHT RELIEF IN HAWAII

MARCH 6, AND 9, 2012

A cyclone over the Aleutian Islands is escorting a polar front segment moving ashore over Queen Charlotte Island. The combination has dammed up Siberian air from entering the U.S., Canada and Alaska. Frigid Siberian air is being pushed toward Hawaii by the next polar front segment.

With the cyclone so far from its polar front segment the dam breaks allowing Siberian air to stream into the U.S. supporting a snow storm in the Northeast. The previously dammed up reservoir of frigid Siberian air sags toward Hawaii.

Cyclogenesis on the polar front segment, caused by a Siberian cold pocket,pushes Siberian cold air toward Hawaii. It tightens the temperature contrast across the cold front.

A cold pocket has formed northwest of the Islands with strong directional and speed divergence over the State. Thermal winds produced by the strengthened cold front accelerate the jet stream flowing south of the Islands.

A cold air squall line breaks out in the channel between Kauai and Oahu. Frontal convection occurs in the channel between Oahu and Molokai. The old cold front is south of the Big Island of Hawaii.

Notice the high cloud blow off over Kauai is toward the northeast. Over the small islands cloud blow off is toward the east and stronger than blow off further west. This represents strong directional and speed divergence, not normally seen in conventional wind observations. It accounts for thunderstorms, hail and nine inches of rain in 24 hours on the east end of Oahu. A waterspout was photographed offshore.

Three days later, thunderstorm clusters surround Oahu. A record 4 1/4 inch chunk of hail was found on East Oahu. At about the same time, a tornado with wind speeds near 70 mph moved through the same area. The weather service reported that the hail was generated by a supercell thunderstorm that was stationary over the area. This tornado and the waterspout three days earlier demonstrate that intense cyclonic spin is created by hail cooling a column of air that is surrounded by warmer air.

The supercell and weak tornado over East Oahu were caused primarily by directional divergence aloft. Directional divergence is often implicated in mainland tornadoes. The most intense tornadoes includethermal wind acceleration of the jet stream causing strong speed divergence resulting in intense vertical updrafts and rotation.

Additional images, for this time period,are available in Appendix B.

Real Environmental Pollution Sponsored by the U.S. Government

One day after the Midwest and Southeast are devastated by a tornado outbreak, our government is on the job polluting the atmosphere, clouds and the Pacific Ocean with, who knows what, chemicals and/or metals. Cloud tracks, seen in this visible image from space, are polluting only low clouds. There are no high clouds over this polluted patch. Thus it is likely a geoengineering experiment to increase reflectivity of low clouds in order to reduce global warming by reflecting sunlight back to space. That might seem harmless enough until one learns that two days later these pollutants were lifted by the approaching cold front and dispersed over the country. And these same experiments have been conducted several times a month for more than ten years. Is it any wonder that Morgellon's disease* is spreading like wildfire?

How do I know that this is government sponsored Geoengineering? Surprise interviews in the halls of the Capitol evinced grudging responses from two Congresspersons that we have to do this to fight climate change and we have to do this to stay ahead of other countries. Most Congresspersons knew nothing about it.

So what we have here is probably a decades old budget line item that was justified as necessary to fight global warming and like most government research projects will go on forever because there are congresspersons who have a vested interest in the climate change hoax and taxpayers don't care.

Geoengineering the atmosphere is not only dangerous to humanity it is totally unjustified. The government should stop it now.

*Morgellon's disease-Earliest symptoms include the sensation that bugs are crawling under the sufferer's skin. The sensation is so excruciating and persistent 24/7 that some sufferers become suicidal. Persistent lesions appear on many sufferers. Tiny bundles of fiber-like filaments are exuded from the lesions and often from areas of the body that do not have lesions. Under a microscope these bundles respond to external stimuli as if to be alive.

Morgellon's can sometimes be infectious, although not always. It is suspected that perhaps there is a genetic connection. A family friend's son became infected. He became despondent and nearly suicidal, and decided to avoid contact with his mother until his mother convinced him otherwise. When he finally agreed to visit his mother, she became infected and is also under extreme stress. She no longer teaches and has closed her computer repair business for fear of infecting friends, students and clients. This mother and son, like so many other sufferers, have been told that their condition is "all in their heads," thanks to the Federal Government.

Why do I believe Morgellon's is spread by aircraft spraying chemicals and metals under government sponsorship? Because two Congresspersons admitted it and the government is covering it up. The CDC and the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology closed its Morgellon's investigation after a year. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recently declared that Morgellon's is psychological, and refers to this condition as "Delusional Parasitosis". As a result, most doctors will not attempt to treat the symptoms, but instead, refer the patient to a psychiatrist. Cases have been reported of people who lost their jobs and/or rights to rear their children because of having been labeled "delusional". This is unconscionable.

President Obama's Green Graft Scam

November 22, 2011

President Obama takes every opportunity to fear monger the public that climate change is a threat to the planet and he must fight it with taxpayer dollars. Under this guise, he directs huge sums to be spent on so-called green energy projects and impedes fossil fuel production. This is one of the worst scams ever perpetrated on American taxpayers. It enriches his cronies while crippling the economy.

Appendices to this report prove conclusively that climate change caused by burning fossil fuels, the foundation of President Obama's energy policy, is junk science nonsense. Fighting climate change is impossible. President Obama's cronies, the United Nations and lame stream media toadies promote this scam. All are beneficiaries of this redistribution of American taxpayer dollars.

At a fund raiser in California, President Obama told his audience, "You've got a governor (Perry) whose state is on fire, denying climate change." In his attempt to demean an opponent, the President revealed his own dangerous ignorance. Fires in Texas have absolutely nothing to do with climate change (See Appendix A and B).

In remarks after the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Hawaii on November 13, 2011, President Obama said, "We agreed to reduce tariffs on environmental goods and make it easier to export clean-energy technologies that create green jobs." "...we'll aim for even higher energy efficiencies. And we're moving ahead with the effort to phase out fossil fuel subsidies. This would be a huge step toward creating clean energy economies and fighting climate change, which is a threat to both the beauty and the prosperity of the region."

"Fighting climate change" is a scam. Climate change as a threat to both the beauty and the prosperity of the region is hyperbole. No matter how much taxpayer money he wastes, the President can do nothing about climate change. "Clean energy technologies that create green jobs" can never achieve higher energy efficiencies for the same cost as fossil fuels. The President's misguided policy is not surprising. Before his election, he said his plan would cause electricity rates to skyrocket. All energy costs are now increasing.

President Obama has been duped by scientists who claim the ability to predict climate, weeks, months or years in advance. They must make these false claims in order to receive government funding for their phony research projects. Fear of manmade climate change was originally generated by climate models that project global heat waves and drought in the next century due to a buildup of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels.

These climate models are obviously invalid. They cannot include wind and temperature features that produce weather. Weather cools the planet's surface. Without it, the planet becomes a desert. Even young children know that weather cannot be predicted accurately beyond a few days. This is a natural limitation due to nonlinear atmospheric dynamics. For that reason, no climate model is capable of predicting climate (average weather) beyond a few days. Claims to the contrary are preposterous. Nevertheless these models fostered mass hysteria that humans were capable of destroying the planet and were the basis for the anti fossil fuel scam to promote cap and trade and green energy programs intended to bring untold personal wealth to UN bureaucrats and Obama cronies.

With exposure of climate prediction models as phony, the climate science community turned to other propaganda methods to promote climate change. Under auspices of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), several climate prediction groups met in 2010 to promote climate change by claiming extreme weather events are caused by global warming. This is even more ridiculous than climate prediction models.

Global warming/climate change caused by carbon dioxide heating of the lower atmosphere is credited with increasing surface temperature by an average of 0.03 degrees Fahrenheit over the past sixty years. This cannot be proved. Assuming it is true, for the sake of argument, no scientist can explain how this surface temperature change can be leveraged into an extreme weather event. This is because extreme weather events in mid-latitudes are controlled by cold air at high altitude. For proof, see the appendices to this report. All images in the appendices are from NOAA/NASA Geosynchronous Satellites. National Weather Service analyses of real time data support the satellite imagery.

The lame stream media is active in promoting the Obama green graft scam with propaganda that extreme weather events are caused by global warming/climate change due to use of fossil fuels. A blizzard with near hurricane force winds in the Bering Sea on November 9, 2011 was showcased on the evening news that night. It was cited as an example of man caused extreme weather events during 2011, including the October snowstorm on the East Coast, flooding in Thailand, flooding in Vermont, record temperatures in the summer heat wave, the Texas drought, the record spring tornadoes and winter snow. As in the past, the news anchor asked a so-called expert, "What is causing these extreme weather events? The expert dutifully replied, "Some scientists believe that global warming/climate change is the cause." Interestingly the expert did not include himself as one of those scientists. But the damage was done. The viewing public was brainwashed to believe that humans are responsible for extreme weather events. This is not news. It is propaganda.

I invite the scientists who believe extreme weather events are caused by man caused global warming/climate change to view the appendices to this report for the startling truth-extreme weather events result from natural atmospheric variability. Some are caused by a deviation from average storm tracks. (The Bering Sea snowcane and the Vermont floods). Some are the result of a combination of different weather features (The Thailand floods, October snowstorm). Some are caused by persistent blocking of storm tracks such as the summer heat wave and Texas drought). Some are typical weather sequences controlled by cold air outbreaks at high altitude (2011 winter snowstorms and spring tornadoes). All of these examples are explained as normal weather events in the appendices.

Al Gore has also been promoting the Obama green scam. In his Climate Reality infomercial slide show on September 15, 2011, Gore agonized that Earth is in a climate crisis. He continued his long, lucrative vendetta against fossil fuels by blaming carbon dioxide for every recent extreme weather event. He blamed heavy rainfall and snowfall, strong winds, tornadoes, floods, heat waves and droughts, on manmade carbon dioxide.

Gore explained that manmade carbon dioxide has warmed the lower atmosphere causing water vapor in the atmosphere to increase. He blames this process for all extreme weather events. This is junk science. If high moisture content alone causes heavy precipitation there would have been no droughts along the Gulf Coast in 2011.

In his sky-is-falling horror show,Gore attributed wildfires in Texas to triple-digit surface temperatures and drought caused by climate change (heat trapped by manmade carbon dioxide in the lower atmosphere). Gore is wrong. Heat waves and drought occur in the absence of cyclones and fronts that are controlled by cold air at high altitudes.

Appendix A shows how the record three-year California drought was terminated. A steady procession of cyclones and fronts, controlled by high level cold air, caused enough rainfall and snowfall to extinguish the drought in only two months.

Appendix B shows that a persistent high altitude dome of sinking warm air was singularly responsible for triple digit temperatures in Texas and elsewhere in the U.S. Cyclones and fronts were excluded by a "ring of fire" that encircled the heat dome.

Gore blamed excess water vapor, from manmade carbon dioxide warming, for the $12 billion damage to the Northeast and devastation of Killington, Vermont, during flooding from Tropical Cyclone Irene. Ridiculous. Tropical cyclones almost always bring heavy rainfall into mid-latitudes. Irene brought its own source of water vapor tightly wrapped around its eye (See Appendix B, August 28, 2011, 0645 UTC, Water Vapor) . More than 5 inches of rain was recorded from landfall in North Carolina throughout the Northeast with a high level cold pocket enhancing Irene's own convection. Rainfall over Vermont was enhanced by high altitude wind divergence (See Appendix B, August 28, 1800 UTC, Upper Winds).

Extreme weather events are not caused by manmade carbon dioxide heating the lower atmosphere. Cold air outbreaks at high altitude control most intense cyclone and frontal formations. The intensity of rainfall and snowfall depends on the velocity of upward vertical motion that lifts water vapor above the condensation level. High altitude wind divergence lifts water vapor to heavy rainfall and snowfall heights. Supercells, hail and tornadoes are most often caused by high altitude wind divergence. Appendices A through H show examples.

Gore blamed Mississippi River spring floods on excess water vapor from carbon dioxide warming. Nonsense. All snow storms and rain storms that contributed to Mississippi floods needed supplemental water vapor. The atmosphere reached out 4000 miles to waters near Hawaii for this supplemental water vapor delivered in high altitude water vapor rivers directly to each storm. Appendices G and H show examples of this process.

Gore is not a scientist. Where does he get his junk science information? It must come from his consensus that he insists believes climate change is settled science. This consensus skipped or slept through Atmospheric Dynamics 101. They have not figured out that sunlight and greenhouses gases unabated would turn the planet into a cinder. Weather controls Earth's heat balance. It has since plants and animals first appeared on the planet. Weather keeps the planet cool enough to sustain humanity. Extreme weather events require strong upward vertical motion. This can be caused by convection, frontal lifting or upper level wind divergence. These processes lift water vapor to the condensation level and above. Gore knows nothing about these water vapor lifting processes because climate prediction models do not include them. This failure of climate prediction models is responsible for the climate change hoax.

There is no climate crisis except for the one created by faulty climate prediction models. For example, Gore displayed a drought prediction map that shows extreme drought over Europe and the Middle East for the decade from 2090 to 2099. Gore assured his audience that this apocalyptic prediction is right because it was derived by 12 computer climate models. Gore is not aware that the 12 climate prediction models do not include cyclones and fronts explicitly. Formation of these atmospheric circulation features is nonlinear and thus cannot be predicted beyond a few days.

A climate prediction model that does not include nonlinear processes cannot terminate a drought. That is why the 12 computer climate models predicted the atmosphere would reach a high temperature tipping point in 2100. These models have no way to brake radiative heating when increasing carbon dioxide is assumed. The atmosphere does it with nonlinear weather. See appendices.

Inaccurate computer climate models, not manmade carbon dioxide, are responsible for Gore's climate crisis. Gore should understand this. A graph in his book, "An Inconvenient Truth," shows Earth's climate alternated between hundred year ice ages and shorter interglacial warm periods for the last 600,000 years. The last interglacial was warmer than now. Sea ice melted, polar ice caps melted and sea levels rose 20 to 40 feet higher than today. All of this global warming came without any help from humans burning fossil fuels.

If, as Gore's chart suggests, history repeats, Earth will continue to warm, sea ice will melt, Greenland and Antarctic ice shelves will partially melt and sea levels will become much higher, before onset of the next ice age. According to Gore's chart, there is no climate crisis now or in the near future. Earth's climate is in a sweet spot. There is nothing man can do to change it.

To those of us who have been driving the roads and highways of America since before the Interstate Highway system was built, Gore's diatribe against carbon dioxide would be hilarious, were it not so dangerous. In the past fifty years, we have witnessed the spectacular greening of an entire country. Trees planted along Interstate Highways have become densely packed and have attained awesome heights. Forest vistas and neighborhoods everywhere have become magnificent in emerald green hues. Agriculture has flourished like nowhere else in the world. We need not speculate on the cause. Only carbon dioxide from fossil fuels is capable of this miraculous beautiful makeover of America. How much manmade carbon dioxide goes into greening the planet and how much goes into warming it? No one knows. Average surface temperature is determined by weather, not by burning fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are the source of green energy. Fossil fuels made America the only superpower with the most powerful economy the world has ever known. Gore's infomercial message, to restrict America's use of fossil fuels in order to prevent climate change, is nonsense. He knows it. Why else would his carbon footprint be so massive?

President Obama is not a scientist. He has been duped by the same climate consensus that duped Gore. The appendices to this paper prove conclusively that anthropogenic climate change is a hoax. The consensus knows little or nothing about atmospheric dynamics. Their climate models depend on greenhouse theory to avoid the nonlinear dynamics of Earth's atmosphere. In so doing they come to erroneous sky-is-falling conclusions about the future condition of the planet.

President Obama's embrace of the climate change hoax is contributing to the economy being driven off a cliff. His administration is squandering massive amounts of precious financial resources on alternatives to fossil fuels despite North America having more fossil fuel reserves than Saudi Arabia, Russia and China combined. Overregulation of U.S. fossil fuel production contributes to unemployment and poverty by threatening private sector businesses with unstable and increased labor and energy costs. U.S. energy independence is a non-sequitur under Obama's energy policy enforced by EPA, Energy and Interior. The President's promotion of so-called clean energy with billions of taxpayer dollars, is an expensive exercise in crony socialism.

The Climate Change Scam

I. Introduction-

Catastrophic climate change caused by manmade carbon dioxide is ludicrous. It was fabricated by the United Nations to bludgeon developed countries into transferring massive amounts of wealth to UN bureaucrats and dictators of failed countries. The U.S. has already begun to transfer billions of dollars to the UN. This insanity must be stopped. Toward that end, this website will expose the truth, about anthropogenic (manmade) global warming or climate change, using NOAA/NASA satellite imagery.

II. Swindling Americans-

Catastrophic climate change caused by manmade carbon dioxide is fear mongering nonsense. It was adopted by the United Nations to frighten people in developed countries into transferring massive amounts of wealth to UN functionaries and their cronies. Toward this end the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference was held in Cancun, Mexico from 29 November to 10 December 2010.

An agreement was adopted to establish a large Green Climate Fund and a Climate Technology Center and network. Developed countries are expected to jointly commit $100 billion a year by 2020 to the Green Climate Fund. A 24-member UN board is to govern the fund. Board members stand to receive massive compensation packages. The Climate Technology Center is to facilitate a "Network of national, regional, sectoral and international technology networks, organizations and initiatives." The Climate Technology Center is undoubtedly intended to perpetuate the anthropogenic climate change hoax.

This will be the most lucrative intergovernmental scam ever perpetrated. If any part of this massive extortion scheme is funded it will be the slickest con job since the UN sponsored "Iraq Oil for Food" program made several UN functionaries filthy rich and propped up Saddam Hussein's genocide of his own people.

The U.S. Government protected Americans from this band of swindlers until a Democrat with an extensive climate change background, gained at Harvard Law School and in community organizing, announced in 2008, "My cap and trade system would necessarily cause electricity rates to skyrocket." The media went silent. What was Senator Obama thinking? His presidential campaign billed him as the champion of low and middle-income Americans. He vowed to raise taxes on only the wealthy. His cap-and-trade plan would cause the price of electricity, coal, heating oil, gasoline, natural gas and related products to skyrocket. The extra cost of energy would be a tax on fossil fuel producers and users. The tax, paid to Obama cronies who own carbon trading companies and green or alternative energy companies, passed on to customers would bust the budgets of low and middle income Americans.

No wonder the fawning media said nothing about this scatter-brained energy policy. If Obama's opponent had made such an outrageous promise he would have been pilloried unmercifully on TV and in the press. The mainstream media remained mute. It could not tell the truth about this plan for fear of upending presidential ambitions of their hero. Did the next president of the U.S. misspeak?

Unfortunately, he meant what he said. His cap-and-trade plan was included in "The American Clean Energy and Security Act" (H.R. 2454), passed in the US. House on June 26, 2009. It is now being held in limbo until enough Senators can be bought off to pass it. The cap-and-trade law is a U.S. Government scam, to redistribute wealth of fossil fuel producers and users to political cronies, justified on the ridiculous fear-mongering pretense of saving the planet from carbon dioxide. It requires the U.S. to reduce GHG (primarily carbon dioxide) emissions 83% from 2005 levels by 2050. With the U.S. population expected to increase substantially by then, it will severely depress the American standard of living. Alternative energy sources will bust the budget even more and cannot make up the difference. By limiting coal, oil and natural gas exploration, extraction and production in the U.S., President Obama's cap-and trade plan will make America more dependent on foreign oil.

When the Presidents cap-and-trade plan is finally passed into law it will join the most corrupt green legislative scam ever passed into law in America-The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, aka the Stimulus Law. This is among the most fraudulent acts on the books. It is "Pork on Steroids" and "Clean Energy Insanity." The law purports to increase employment. Two years later, it has failed to lower unemployment below 9%. The law is a combination Santa Claus, Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy give away to Democrat cronies. Only 3 faux Republicans in both houses of Congress voted for it. It proves that politicians without opposition cannot be trusted. It is unadulterated graft. It expands the size of the Federal Government and provides large monetary gifts for every cockamamie project likely to buy votes. The 2000+ page bill was rammed through the U.S. House in two days. Signed into law by President Obama, three weeks later, it saddles all Americans, present and future, with an $862 billion debt. That's only the start of it. Most new jobs are government jobs for which wages, salaries and benefits must be paid by taxpayers forever. Thus the law has already increased the national debt by more than one trillion dollars. Compounded by debt servicing costs and government employee salaries and benefits this act will add another trillion dollars to the national debt nearly every decade.

The law includes $27.2 billion for energy efficiency and renewable energy research and investment; $21.5 billion for energy infrastructure and $7.6 billion for scientific research. All of this spending is in response to fear mongering that carbon dioxide is going to destroy the planet. Catastrophic climate change caused by manmade carbon dioxide is a hoax. Despite many billions of American taxpayer dollars spent over the years to validate anthropogenic climate change, Earth's nonlinear atmosphere-ocean system cannot be predicted for more than a few days even with satellite data and the most powerful super computers. This has not stopped the Obama Administration from using it as the basis for its energy policy. Clean energy research gets $5 billion primarily to brainwash the public, especially children, that carbon dioxide is a pollutant that causes catastrophic climate change. The United Nations Green Climate Fund scam pales in comparison to the U.S. Government cap-and-trade and clean energy stimulus scams.

In his press conference on June 29, 2011, President Obama threatened to cut NOAA's National Weather Service budget as a scare tactic to pressure Republicans into increasing taxes on oil companies and others. The President was duplicitous. NOAA was one of a few government agencies that shared $5 billion of the stimulus bill for clean energy research. That is in addition to NOAA's regular huge research budget devoted to climate change research. Clean energy research is nice but not essential. National Weather Service warnings are essential. They protect property and save lives. Weather forecasters are on duty 24/7. Few government departments have such a vital purpose. Yet in the Obama Administration, clean energy research takes priority over National Weather Service warnings. President Obama's threat to cut the National Weather Service to accommodate climate change research was a scam within a scam. It proves the bankruptcy of the Obama energy policy.

President Obama wasted no time implementing his illogical energy plan after his inauguration. He threatened to bankrupt the next coal-fired power plant built in the U.S. For that reason there have been no coal-fired power plants built in the U.S. since 2008, while China and India build them with abandon. This country is the Saudi Arabia of coal reserves. Coal is the least expensive form of energy available to Americans. Restricting the use of coal, by itself, will achieve the Presidents plan to cause electricity rates to skyrocket. The Presidents energy policy objectives included energy independence. His cap-and-trade plan and restriction on use of coal makes the U.S. more dependent on foreign oil. What is he thinking?

The President explained recently, "The challenge with coal is that although it's very cheap, it's also dirty. And it can create the kinds of air pollution that not only is contributing to climate change but is also creating asthma for kids nearby." How can the President of the U.S. utter such fear mongering nonsense? The cause of asthma is unknown. And there is no credible evidence that burning coal causes climate change.

President Obama's visceral disdain for the oil and natural gas industries makes America more dependent on foreign oil. Oil and gas companies have found new oil reserves offshore, in Alaska and throughout North America. But the President's lackeys erect every conceivable regulative barrier against exploration and extraction of known reserves. At every juncture he adamantly proposes penalizing oil exploration and production companies with increased taxes. The President's propaganda that oil companies are too wealthy fails to recognize the increasing costs of exploration and extraction of oil and natural gas from much more difficult locations. The President's constant haranguing to redistribute oil company funds from oil exploration and extraction to the Government is insane. The government demonstrated its total incompetence during the BP oil spill. Oil companies provided all the equipment and expertise to solve the problem. President Obama and his Cabinet could only impede progress by grandstanding. Increasing taxes on oil companies serves only to increase energy costs for consumers.

Recently, President Obama complained, One of the biggest burdens over the last few months has been the price of gasoline. Well duh. If he and his lackeys stop harassing the oil companies, supply can increase and prices will come down.

Alternatives to fossil fuels will be necessary in the next century. Basic research should be funded. The problem is not so dire now as to add $billions to the national debt for feel good solutions. The stimulus law picks so-called clean energy winners like windmills, solar panels, and nuclear power. These energy sources are dead ends. None can provide more than a tiny fraction of the energy required for the country's electrical power. None can power aircraft, diesel locomotives, or large trucks. All represent significant problems. Swarms of rats, mice, and disease carrying,crop eating insects will be set loose by raptor, bird and bat killing windmills. Pristine desert habitats will become dead zones under solar panels. Nuclear power is hazardous.

Within days of the Japan earthquake and tsunami, President Obama appeared on television to assure us that nuclear power plants in America were safe and nuclear power would be a major component of America's future electricity generation (because it does not emit carbon dioxide.) He said this as three reactors in the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant were melting down and spent nuclear fuel was burning. Nuclear contamination, of the surrounding land, ocean and atmosphere, was on a level with Chernobyl. It is now expected to take 30 to 50 years to clean up the radiation poisoning.

President Obama was disingenuous. The next nuclear disaster in the U.S. is inevitable. Two nuclear plants in California are situated on bluffs over the Pacific Ocean atop the San Andreas fault. Those plants are upwind of the entire U.S. population, infrastructure, industry and agricultural lands. Everyone knows the "Big One" in California is overdue.

The President failed to admit that many nuclear power plants are within the New Madrid fault earthquake zone. The Mississippi River flowed backward and waterfalls formed during the last earthquake over that fault system. Land liquefaction occurred in an earlier earthquake.

The President neglected vulnerability of East Coast nuclear installations to a monster tsunami due to inevitable landslides from equatorial Atlantic volcanoes. Escaped radiation will prevent those who take refuge in the hills from returning.

President Obama ignored the effect on all U.S. nuclear plants of the unmentionable horror of a Yellowstone eruption. Geologists tell us that such a horrendous disaster is long overdue. In this event, loss of life in the West will be without parallel in human history. With outside delivery of food and water, Americans in the East can survive under a blanket of ash. But infrastructure necessary to back up nuclear power plants, exposed high tension wires and air breathing engines, are not likely to remain functional. People fortunate enough to survive the ash will be subject to the horror of radiation poisoning from 104 old nuclear power plants.

High explosives delivered from a civilian aircraft might not penetrate the core of a nuclear reactor, but the lesson from Fukushima Daiichi is that spent fuel rods are not so well protected and are equally dangerous. Human error has already resulted in several instances of radiation releases to the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide releases and the BP oil spill pale in comparison.

III. Carbon Dioxide Panic-

With leadership from the U.N. and the Obama administration, the world has gone berserk from fear of carbon dioxide. The health of U.S. agriculture, forestry and fisheries depends on carbon dioxide. Yet President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency declared carbon dioxide a pollutant. So what is the EPA protecting the environment from? Government bureaucrats and on-the-take scientists warn that we must severely reduce our combustion of fossil fuels or feel nature's wrath. The party line is that if we fail to make draconian reductions in fossil fuel use, catastrophic climate change will surely follow. How do they know this? Climate prediction computer models tell them so. Do these computer models emulate Earth's atmosphere? No. Earth's atmosphere is non-linear. No computer is powerful enough to accurately predict real climate change beyond a few days. Climate prediction has not graduated from research. Those who insist that the science is settled and that a scientific consensus exists for anthropogenic climate change are scoundrels. Basing the energy policy of the world's only super power on climate change junk science is dangerous. It would bring the nation's economy to its knees. It could lead to global famine and the demise of civilization.

What is the specific emergency that requires Americans to increase the national debt by more than $50 billion for clean (no carbon dioxide emissions) energy? It is the anthropogenic climate change hoax. Climate change models project that average surface temperature will increase to levels untenable for humanity by 2100 if we do not make severe cuts in carbon dioxide emissions. Oh, really? Burning fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide. CO2 is invisible. It is odorless. It is clean. More important it is vital to humanity. Growth of all green plants requires CO2. Green plants release oxygen. Thus CO2 is essential for all plants and air-breathing creatures. Does it make sense that the trace gas responsible for life on Earth might bring on the apocalyptic demise of humanity? What is the evidence for such a ridiculous projection? Phony climate model predictions.

Geological evidence does not support climate change model predictions. During the last interglacial warm period, average temperature was higher than now. Most of the Polar ice caps melted. Sea levels were 20 to 40 feet higher than today. Remains of a deciduous forest were recently found on Ellesmere Island, near the North Pole. Humans burning fossil fuels were not responsible for global warming then and are not now.

Earth will be quite comfortable with CO2 levels double the concentrations of today. 100-ton herbivores roamed North America and Eurasia when carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere were ten times greater than today. Later, 17-ton mammals replaced the dinosaurs. These animals required lush vegetation, and elevated oxygen levels. A cool climate was necessary to keep their massive bodies from overheating. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere at several times the level of today provided the necessary ingredient for this healthy environment. Higher levels of carbon dioxide are good for agriculture, forestry, fisheries and are vital to support the burgeoning human population. Agriculture is the only U.S. industry that makes a positive contribution to the country's trade deficit. CO2 and fertilizers made from oil are responsible.

IV. Unsettled Science-

Those who claim there is a scientific consensus that global warming is settled science,have short memories. From the 1940's through the 1970's, global temperatures suggested that global cooling was a problem for humanity. The U.S. National Science Board's Patterns and Perspectives in Environmental Science report of 1972 noted that the planet was entering a phase of cooling after a warm period. It made this projection, "Judging from the record of the past interglacial ages, the present time of high temperatures should be drawing to an end, to be followed by a long period of considerably colder temperatures leading into the next glacial age some 20,000 years from now."

The Board's report of 1974, Science And The Challenges Ahead, continued on this theme. "During the last 20-30 years, world temperature has fallen, irregularly at first but more sharply over the last decade. The cause of the cooling trend is not known with certainty. The report cannot conclude whether carbon dioxide in warming, or agricultural and industrial pollution in cooling, are factors in the recent climatic changes."

Newsweek and Time magazines warned of massive population dislocations and widespread famine due to an approaching ice age.

The "ice age is coming" scare was put to rest by a U.S. National Academy of Sciences report in 1975. It stated, "we do not have a good quantitative understanding of our climate machine and what determines its course. Without this fundamental understanding, it does not seem possible to predict climate." The report concluded, "The climates of the earth have always been changing, and they will doubtless continue to do so in the future. How large these future changes will be, and where and how rapidly they will occur, we do not know.."

More recently climate change scientists convinced members of the U.S. Senate that global warming would soon preclude snow and ice from falling over the U.S. In a televised conference, some Democratic members of the U.S. Senate agonized that global warming would prevent their grandchildren from seeing natural snow and ice. Again the climate prediction models failed. These Senators should have been humiliated at their gullibility but several continue to support President Obama's cap-and-trade plan.

V. Extreme Weather Events-

Fear of a tipping point in 2100 or the projected disappearance of snow and ice did not convince Americans to support UN plans to exploit American taxpayers or to stop Americans from driving SUVs and eating cheeseburgers. So the climate change community came together in 2010 in various meetings around the globe to adopt a new fear-mongering ploy. They decided to blame extreme weather events on anthropogenic global warming or climate change. These so-called climate experts seem to have forgotten that extreme weather events appear in earliest recorded human histories. "Biblical proportions" describe extreme weather events to this day. Geological evidence of extreme weather goes back much further. Failure of climate change experts to settle on a credible storyline is strong evidence that anthropogenic climate change is fraudulent.

According to Al Gore, global warming caused the snowfall during the 2010-11 winter. He claimed, "Scientists have been warning for at least two decades that global warming could make snowstorms more severe. He explained, "Here's a basic fact. There is about 4 percent more water vapor today than there was in 1970. That extra water is because of warmer oceans and warmer air and is returning to earth as extra-heavy rain and snow." This has become the U.S. Government and mainstream media party line to explain extreme weather events. This is junk science. Global warming cannot control extreme weather events.

Warmer oceans and warmer air together with an extra 4 percent of water vapor over the planet cannot explain the extreme weather events of 2010-11. Frigid air from Siberia, Alaska and Canada together with water vapor from the cold Pacific Ocean and from the warm Gulf of Mexico caused U.S. snowstorms, flooding and tornado outbreaks. Although water vapor from the Gulf of Mexico was a principal source of moisture for rainstorms and tornado outbreaks, drought worsened along the entire Gulf Coast. Snowfall and rainfall remained north of the Gulf Coast. Obviously increased water vapor alone cannot cause precipitation. Upward vertical motion must carry water vapor to higher altitudes and colder temperatures before precipitation falls. For that reason, every rainstorm, snowstorm and tornado outbreak formed in advance of a cold air outbreak under diverging winds in advance of a high altitude cold low/trough. (See appendices).

As for more severe snowstorms since 1970, the worst East Coast blizzard on record occurred in 1888. The East Coast blizzard of 1947 was worse than the blizzards of 2010-11. The snow pack in the Rockies has been exceeded in the past. The greatest snow depth from a single storm was 63" in Colorado in 1913.

Gore's threat of extra-heavy rain since 1970 ignores history. The Mississippi River basin flooded 21 times during the twentieth century. Water volume in the floods of 1927, 1937 and 1973 were equal to or greater than the flood of 2011. Nothing since 1970 compares to the California deluge of 1861. It inundated a 300-mile stretch of the Central Valley, according to Marcia McNutt, director of the US Geological Survey. The state capital had to be moved from Sacramento to San Francisco. Geological evidence reveals that even larger California storms happened in past centuries over the dates 212, 440, 603, 1029, 1418 and 1605. And of course there was Noah's epic flood. Anthropogenic global warming is not responsible for the floods of 2011.

Some government and media experts are blaming the tornado outbreaks in 2011 on global warming. Here again 2011 was not a record-breaking year for tornadoes. Doppler radar, operational for only two decades, and trained spotters are responsible for the high number of tornadoes recorded in 2011. Lives lost are related to population growth as much as to number of tornadoes. Urban sprawl has populated rural areas. Cities have annexed the suburbs. Heavy loss of life in Joplin, MO was caused by destruction of structures that were not built before the deadly tornado outbreaks of 1974, 1953 and 1936. The most deadly tornado on record took 700 lives on March 18, 1925.

VI. Climate Reality-

Anthropogenic global warming is supposed to cause extreme weather events by warming Earth's surface with a blanket of carbon dioxide. Warmer air and warmer oceans are then expected to miraculously create cyclones, anticyclones and fronts that cause extreme weather. This is true only for tropical cyclones and monsoons. All other mid-latitude extreme weather events are caused by cold air. The so-called experts rely on climate prediction models that cannot include cyclones, anticyclones and fronts. Ignorance, of these nonlinear processes, is the fundamental reason for the fear mongering nonsense that global warming will eventually result in catastrophic climate change.

Television and print media are rife with claims by politicians and experts that anthropogenic global warming was responsible for extreme weather events during the winter and spring of 2010-2011. This is nonsense. A cyclone was responsible directly or indirectly for every extreme weather event during the period. Global warming had no influence.

Every mid-latitude or extratropical cyclonehas its genesis in high altitude cold air. Cyclones are at work constantly throughout the year making Earth cool enough for humans by moving warm air up and poleward and cold air down and equatorward. The global warming theory, that manmade carbon dioxide is going to burn us up, neglects the ubiquity and efficiency of extrtropical cyclones.

NOAA/NASA satellite imagery, McIDAS wind maps and weather charts in the appendices prove that global warming is not responsible for extreme weather events or for climate change:

Appendix A. Breaking the California Drought, 2011.

Governor Jerry Brown declared the end of the three year California drought on March 30, 2011. The drought was terminated by a series of extreme weather events unusual for a California winter. Climate change caused by carbon dioxide induced global warming played no part. Warmer oceans, warmer air and more water vapor were not evident in near record rainfall or snowfall in higher elevations. Instead frigid air from Siberia, introduced with a steady procession of arctic fronts, moved the polar front south. Extra-tropical cyclones spawned in the cold air dumped heavy rainfall on lowlands and near record snowfall in higher elevations.

The sequence of events is revealed in NOAA/NASA Geosynchronous Satellite imagery and McIdas computer generated cloud motion winds:

A New Year storm put a dent in the three year California drought that was considered one of the worst on record. It turned out to be a disappointment. California remained dry with mild temperatures for another 43 days.

A month later the polar front stalled north of Hawaii for several days on its trip east. Cold air from Siberia is pouring in behind it. Frigid air over the warm ocean results in the speckled cloud pattern. But the cloud pattern changes closer to the front as the air becomes warmed nearly to the sea surface temperature. Often in similar cases the front backs up. In this case, the atmosphere sent reinforcements to move the cold air further east to its destination in California and beyond. The upper level (wispy) cloud puff with a low level tail, approaching the dateline (180 degrees longitude), is coming to the rescue. It is a tiny cold pocket or short wave trough. It's tail is an infant front straddling the boundary between frigid and less cold air near the surface.

Wind vectors at all altitudes show an abrupt direction change from northwest to southwest and acceleration near 30N, 175W. This identifies the short wave trough or cold pocket in the wind that is creating the wispy cloud at high altitude. Air traveling into the center of a cold pocket is forced to spin counter-clockwise and then clockwise as it exits downstream. This causes air to converge going into the cold center and diverge coming out. Converging air sinks, warms and dries out; diverging air rises, cools and causes any moisture to condense. Thus the cold pocket aloft is evidenced by a clear area following a small cloud. This dynamic process is vital to Earth's heat balance. It triggers cyclone formation (cyclogenesis).

The polar front jet stream flows over a ridge from Hawaii to California. Wind speeds exceed 100 kts from the dateline all the way to California. This reveals a strong temperature contrast in the surface front. The cold-core low near the Aleutian Islands is weak. Its surface winds (red vectors) are becoming too weak to maintain the temperature contrast and push the front east.

The short wave trough is showing cyclonic characteristics. Counter-clockwise surface flow is pushing the new cold front and the frigid air behind it toward the polar front.

The short wave trough has morphed into a full blown cyclone. Another cold pocket is approaching with more frigid air reinforcements behind an infant arctic front.

The new cyclone has become a powerful storm. Storm force surface winds are tightening the temperature contrast and moving the polar front faster. Air in the storm is so cold that upper winds have doubled back and accelerated east of the storm. This is characteristic of a bomb (record wind speed increase). Further east, winds fan out causing strong wind divergence and upward vertical motion. This accounts for the comma shaped cloud shield. This storm is an extreme weather event at the surface. Storm force winds and high seas make it dangerous for ships.

The new cyclone has pulled the polar front back to await frigid air reinforcement. The next cold pocket is already showing signs of cyclone formation.

A day later, the storm has pulled north. The temperature contrast at the front has weakened, especially near Hawaii. The next cold pocket is approaching with a batch of frigid air from Siberia. Will it be in time to refresh the front?

Northerly surface winds near the dateline, from a Siberian cold outbreak, compact the temperature contrast along the polar front causing jet stream winds to accelerate. Storm force surface winds continue to maintain the northern portions of the front and move it east. But the weak surface front near Hawaii allows the jet stream to weaken and head south.

Good progress is being made by the frigid air behind the polar front pushed by the rejuvenated cyclone.

The polar front has arrived on the West Coast and is bringing rain and snow to the Pacific Northwest. Frigid Siberian air behind an arctic front is approaching British Columbia. A bulge in the polar front suggests cyclogenesis.

The arctic front jet stream is pushing east. The polar front jet stream is moving northeast. There is no wind component pushing either front south. Cyclogenesis begins in the upper levels as revealed by green wind vectors near 35N, 140W. Diverging winds east of the cold core cyclone on the dateline are responsible for the vast cloud shield west of Hawaii.

Convection in the upper level cyclone can be seen west of the front. The surface cyclone created by upper level divergent winds can be seen southeast of the upper cyclone. Both developing cyclones are in cold air behind the front.

Separation of convection from the upper and lower developing cyclones can be seen in the water vapor image. The front is being pulled into the circulation of the surface cyclone.

McIdas winds display the relationship of the upper trough to diverging winds over the surface cyclone near 35N, 135W and the cloud shield over the front.

Cyclogenesis is complete. Both cyclones have merged with the front. The polar front is being propelled southeast rapidly by surface winds flowing around the developing cyclone. Heavy snow is falling in the Pacific Northwest. This extreme weather event was created by cold air within cold air over a cool ocean. Warmer oceans, warmer air and more water vapor due to global warming and climate change played no part.

The polar front is now in Southern California. A vast pool of cold Siberian and Alaskan air has moved offshore of California. This is the primary ingredient for climate change from three-year drought to fully hydrated in the next month and a half.

Much colder air is offshore of Southern California. Rain falls in San Diego and in Northern California. Snow falls in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. An arctic front is poised to deliver another batch of frigid Siberian air to California.

A cyclone with trailing arctic front arrives over San Francisco. Heavy rain falls in Northern California. Snow is falling in higher elevations. A wispy upper air cloud reveals a cold pocket west of Oregon.

Short wave troughs at 47N, 137W and 35N, 135W, will influence weather over California soon. Divergent upper winds, east of the offshore cold pocket at 40N, 125W, are responsible for rain and snow in Northern California.

The short wave trough with wispy cloud is now a cyclone off Washington State pulling down frigid air behind a trailing arctic front. Snow is falling in the Pacific Northwest. The polar front moves rain and snow to Southern California. A tornado warning is issued for Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. Snow closes the Grapevine on I-5 between Los Angeles and the Central Valley. Snow falls on the San Diego Mountain Range. This extreme weather event was caused by cold air in cold air. Carbon dioxide created global warming and climate change were not involved.

Extreme weather, including snow along the coast, is caused by upper level cold pools west of San Francisco and west of Washington State. Tight cyclonic flow is forced by the core of the cold air. Moving away from the core, wind directions fan out causing strong divergence and upward vertical motion from the Mexico border to San Francisco.

Southern California receives a respite from rain and snow.

The Norwegian cyclone model and baroclinic instability models assume cyclogenesis takes place in fronts. Satellite imagery and McIdas winds reveal that cyclogenesis takes place in the cold air behind a front. This assumes that cold air causes cyclonic spin. Here is an example. Cyclogenesis is occurring in cold air off Northern California. A cold outbreak from Canada is also causing cyclonic spin.

The two cold pools with trailing frontal vestiges wrap around each other and plunge south in the cold air mass. Cold air supports cyclonic spin.

A rejuvenated polar front deposits snow in Burbank and on the San Diego Mountain Ranges.

March opens with a cyclone and front approaching California with rain and snow from the Canadian border south to Los Angeles.

Rain and snow are falling on Southern California.

A cold core cyclone and cold front bring heavy rain and snow to Northern California.

The front moves into Southern California with rain and snow.

Cyclogenesis in cold air behind the polar front brings rain and snow to the entire state.

The cold front brings rain and snow to Southern California. Siberian air behind a cyclone and arctic front approaches from the west.

The arctic front is bringing rain and snow to most of the state while another arctic front approaches. This was the last storm of the month. It was enough to convince Governor Brown to declare the drought ended.

Every cyclone and cold front was generated in cold air over a cold ocean offshore of California. Warmer oceans and warmer air were not involved. Global warming and climate change are not responsible for the rain and snow required to extinguish an extreme drought in less than two months.

Appendix B. The U.S. Heat Wave and Texas Drought of 2011-

The lame stream media is intent on convincing the public that man's activities are responsible for climate change. TV News broadcasts and press releases are offering on-the-take scientists to testify that climate change is responsible for the heat wave and Texas drought of 2011. It is shocking that these so-called scientists are willing to put their reputations on the line to spout junk science propaganda.

Manmade carbon dioxide is blamed for increasing Earth's surface temperature by 0.01 degree Fahrenheit each year. The heat wave of 2011 recorded triple digit temperatures in Texas for more than two months. The settled science experts never explain how their scientific consensus believes carbon dioxide warming can be leveraged to cause triple digit surface temperatures. Attributing heat waves and droughts to surface temperature heating of 0.01 degree Fahrenheit per year, by manmade carbon dioxide, is utter nonsense. This appendix demonstrates conclusively that carbon dioxide heating of Earth's surface does not create and maintain a heat wave or drought. Upper atmosphere processes control the entire sequence of events.

Heat waves and droughts develop under persistent upper level warm air domes. Air lifted to very high altitudes by convection and/or wind divergence must come down. As it sinks, it warms by compression and dries out. This process also applies to cyclonic turning of wind. The entire air column below is heated and clouds are suppressed. Without clouds the sun bakes the surface. Moisture trapped under the heated column raises the heat index.

Appendix A detailed exhaustion of the three-year California drought during a 41 day period from February 14, to March 27, 2011. A procession of Arctic fronts brought frigid Siberian air to a cold air reservoir off the California coast. Cyclones and fronts, generated in the cold air, brought heavy rain and snow to the entire State. California Governor Jerry Brown declared the end of the drought on March 30, 2011. Cold air, cyclones and fronts were responsible for termination of the California drought. Likewise, the absence of cold air, cyclones and fronts is necessary for heat waves and droughts to originate and persist. NOAA/NASA satellite imagery and McIdas cloud motion winds reveal generation and persistence of the heat wave and Texas drought of 2011:

1. Heat Wave and Drought Fundamentals-

The fundamental process, creating and maintaining heat waves and droughts, is air sinking from very high altitudes, warming by compression and drying out. In this example, cold air over warmer water causes fair weather clouds to form by shallow convection. Each cloud is formed by upward vertical motion, lifting water vapor to the level of condensation and higher. Air pushed upward must be replaced by air moving downward. Downward moving air heats up and dries out, forming the open space between clouds.

Three days later, more cold air has pushed south behind a cold front over the California-Mexico border. Deep convection over a polar front segment and a disturbance has raised precipitating clouds to very high altitudes, on the order of eight miles. High altitude winds are blowing toward the U.S. Blow off, from the convection, sinks, warms and dries the air surrounding the cloud shield. The low level cloud deck is capped from above by a temperature inversion. This caps convection and the cloud tops spread out into a solid deck. Immediately downstream of the cloud shield, warming extends all the way to the ocean surface, completely evaporating all low clouds. This cloud image demonstrates the effect on low level temperature from deep convection. This is the fundamental process that causes heat waves and droughts. Global warming is not involved.

Cold air at high altitudes controls heat waves and droughts. This is the high altitude temperature and wind pattern that caused the heat wave and drought. Approximately half of the atmosphere, by weight, is below and half is above this level, between 3 and 4 miles high. Low pressure centers, nearly concentric with low temperatures (-22 degrees C.) off the West Coast and (- 20 degrees C.) off the East Coast, confine a high pressure ridge, containing high temperatures (-8 degrees C.), to the middle of the U.S. This is a persistent temperature/wind pattern. Sinking air in the ridge, warms and dries the air out all the way to the surface creating a warm dome. Clouds are suppressed under the warm dome allowing sunshine to bake the surface. The longer the warm dome persists, without ventilation from passing cyclones or fronts, the hotter the surface temperature becomes over time. Triple digit temperatures were recorded in Texas after this date.

On June 1, 2011, the atmosphere is still configured as it was during winter and spring, with a large upper level cold air reservoir off the West Coast. This has good and bad implications for summer. On the good side, it is evidence that cyclones and fronts can develop and might be able to penetrate and cool a heat dome over the U.S.

On the other hand, the cold air reservoir could lock in an upper level heat dome. Upper winds flowing through the cold reservoir will be forced to turn cyclonically (counter-clockwise) moving warm air poleward, then turn east and begin sinking. The polar front describes this pattern.

Intense convection over Texas is from the tail end of a cold front and instability in advance of the polar front. The cloud shield, between the polar front and convection in Texas, is caused by diverging upper winds and upward vertical motion lifting moisture above the condensation level.

Dry air (brown) swirls around Hawaii and near the polar front are caused by cyclonically turning winds that converge, sink, warm and dry out.

Monsoon clouds together with pre-frontal clouds are evident over the Southwest in this view.

Low level cold air clouds, downwind of an oncoming polar front segment, have been fused into a solid mass of cloud tops by sinking, warming and drying air from convection in the front. Similarly sinking, warming and drying air will cap a warm air dome over the U.S. Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas will get a double whammy with sinking, warming and drying air from monsoon clouds.

High altitude winds turn cyclonically around the cold air reservoir. Lifted by diverging winds and convection over Mexico, the four corner States and Texas, air sinks and warms by compression forcing winds to turn clockwise and double back into a warm dome over West Texas and Mexico.

This view reveals two warm air domes. One is located over the Southwest. The other begins in Southern California and is capped by the polar front jet stream from Wyoming to Cape Cod where it departs the jet stream and doubles back describing a racetrack pattern from Florida to include the Southwest dome. Sinking, warming, drying air in these upper air domes heats the entire air column from top to bottom.

A cold cyclone is spinning over Hawaii. Strong winds turning cyclonically in a tight radius of curvature, converge, sink, warm by compression and dry out. This process is responsible for the dry air swirls west of Hawaii in the water vapor image. This source of warm dry air will become significant in the summer.

2. The Heat Dome Ventilated by Cold Air and Rainfall-

Dallas enjoyed high temperatures from 54- to 90-degreesuntil May 28, when highs increased to the upper 90's under a warm air dome. A cold front, extending from an upper level cyclone in Canada sliced through the warm air dome on June 1. This front reduced high temperatures in Dallas to the lower 90's briefly. Temperatures in the upper 90's reappeared on June 4.

A surface cyclone develops in the cold air on June 4. As the front proceeds inland it should cool surface temperatures and provide much needed rainfall to the Southwest's parched landscape.

The surface cyclone is supported by a strong upper level cold cyclone. This cold-core cyclone looks potent enough to move inland and cool surface temperatures.

A day later the surface cyclone and front are almost gone. Sinking warm air under the dome prevents the cyclone from penetrating further inland.

One day later there is nothing left of the surface cyclone and front. Instead of the cold front cooling off the land, warm air from the warm dome over the Southwest wiped out the surface cyclone and front. The entire system has been fused, from the top down, into a nearly solid cloud deck. The warm dome over the Southwest is veritably impenetrable already by June 6. Dallas records its first triple digit temperature of the year on June 7.

The upper level water vapor image is still spinning offshore of Northern California after the surface cyclone and front have disappeared.

Rivers of dry air moving into the U.S. are from convection to the east of Hawaii and from the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). This warm dry air contributes to the heat wave under the warm dome building over the U.S.

The cold cyclone, over Hawaii on June 1, disappeared. A new cold cyclone is forming. It will remain near this position into August. Upper air divergence and convection east of this system will be a source of warm dry air to supplement the warm air dome over the U.S. This outside source of warm air will also serve to lock out cyclones and fronts from eroding the warm air dome.

A cold pocket (-26 degrees Celsius), west of British Columbia, is beginning to separate from the cold air reservoir over Alaska. This nonlinear (not forecastable) event begins a sequence of events that will significantly reduce triple digit surface temperatures across the Southwest. It demonstrates that cold air at high altitude controls surface temperature.

Four days later the tiny cold pocket has become a cold core low with strong cyclonic winds reaching all the way to the surface over Saskatchewan. It has released a cold outbreak, into the Great Plains, behind a cold front extending from North Dakota into New Mexico.

A new nonlinear cold pocket, over Southeast Alaska, is breaking away from the cold air reservoir.

The new cold pocket has moved intoOregon under the influence of a northwesterly steering flow.

The new cold pocket, now a short wave trough,isin Idaho. A surface cyclone forms in Colorado under diverging winds in advance of the short wavetrough. The cold front has strengthened and movedsouth along the spine of the Rockies, intoNew Mexico, Arizona andCalifornia.

The cold cyclonic circulation center is in Washington State. Diverging winds over Idaho, Utah and Southern California lifted moisture into the typical comma shaped cloud shield and frontal system.

Easterly winds south of Mexico are sinking winds generated by Hurricane Beatriz. These warm winds reinforce the warm dome over Texas by entering a racetrack pattern turning clockwise over Baja California and over Louisiana. Dallas records a 105-degree temperature. This is the highest temperature measured so far this year.

Hurricane Beatriz raises air to extreme heights. As the air moves away from the storm it sinks, warms and turns clockwise over Baja California.

The short wave trough in Colorado, with a surface cyclone in Kansas and cold front extending into Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, begins to break down the heat wave. Maximum surface temperatures in Dallas have been in triple digits for the past week.

The upper level cyclonic circulation center that appeared over the Pacific Northwest three days ago is now located in Kansas. Cold front clouds with embedded thunderstormsextend into Texas. Dallas records a 99-degree maximum temperature.

The upper level cold cyclone and surface cyclone merge over Nebraska/Iowa. The cold front is reinforced by water vapor from the Pacific, over Mexico, and from the Gulf of Mexico. Frontal convection causes rain and hail to fall. Surface temperatures cool below triple digits in Texas.

A strong cold front extends to the East Coast then back through the Southeast to intense convection in Texas.

Texas received 1 to 3 inches of rain as the cold front passed through. The heat dome was ventilated like opening the door of an oven. The cold front reduced maximum temperatures below 90 degrees and night time temperatures below 80 degrees in Texas.

The heat dome formerly over Texas has been pushed south to Mexico. The temperature in Dallas falls to 96-degrees.

A heat dome has formed over the Southeast. 102 degree temperatures appear along the coast. These are high temperatures for this year to date.

A heat dome has formed over the West coast. Sacramento records a 104-degree temperature today and 107 degrees tomorrow. These are high temperatures for the year to this date.

The cold front passes southeast of Dallas. Dallas records a high temperature of 93-degrees. This will be the lowest high temperature until a temperature of 85 is recorded on August 14, after a cold front passage.

Five days later, a cyclone originates over Minnesota in a cold outbreak from Canada. A dry line and corkscrew front indicate that winds around this cyclone are strong.

Despite this cyclone being very powerful, its front cannot make it through Dallas. The heat dome has been compressed over Texas. Also warm dry air in south Texas, from the Pacific Ocean prevented the front from cooling Dallas below a triple digit high temperature.

3. The Heat Dome Wins-

A cyclone and front barely make a dent in the heat wave on July 1. Warm dry air from the Pacific Ocean is on the cold air side of the pathetic little front. Dallas swelters under triple digit high temperatures for another month and a half.

Cold air off the West Coast continues to pump warm air into the heat dome. Cold air off the East Coast blocks the heat dome from moving east. There have been no cold fronts moving into the heat dome since the end of June. Like a closed oven,temperatures have been increasing steadily. Dallas records a 105 degree temperature on this date.

Blaming record high surface temperatures on global warming is incredulous. Global warming caused by carbon dioxide is supposed to have increased average surface temperature by 01.6 degrees Fahrenheit in the past 60 years. This is mere noise.

Water vapor lifted by convective cells makes a ring around the heat dome. A river of high level sinking warm dry air pours into the U.S from the Pacific Ocean. It acts as a buffer to prevent cyclones, fronts or cold air pockets from infiltrating the heat dome.

Convective cells with thunderstorm clusters form in the water vapor on the periphery of the heat dome. This is referred to appropriately as the "Ring of Fire." Where upper level warm dry air was sparse in the east, the heat dome was infiltrated by the tail end of a cold front. This is a back-door cold front. It moves down the backside of an upper level cold air reservoir that has been locked off the East Coast since winter.

The center of the East Coast cold reservoir is over Nova Scotia. It has blocked the heat dome from moving east and dissipating. A similar cold reservoir off the West Coast continues to pump warm air into the heat dome. These upper level cold reservoirs are primarily responsible for persistence of the heat domes this year. Global warming cannot establish high altitude cold reservoirs or high altitude heat reservoirs. Anthropogenic climate change has nothing to do with the heat wave and drought of 2011.

High altitude winds remain intact around the inner heat dome. The outer heat dome has been moved west by the East coast cold reservoir. The high temperature in Dallas today will reach 105 degrees F.

The ring of fire begins to repair itself with warm dry air forming a rear guard buffer. The high temperature in Dallas has cooled to 101 degrees F. 80 degree temperatures appear under convective precipitation in the upper Midwest. Three tornado, 17 hail and 7 high wind reports were recorded in the ring of fire.

A tiny cold cyclone could not erode the northwest section of the heat dome. But it distorted the ring of fire northward. As a result temperatures reached triple digits and the high 90's in the upper Midwest. The convective cell in Wisconsin is developing in early evening due to surface warming during the afternoon.

Upper level cooling at night causes expansion and intensification of the convective cell and imbedded thunderstorms.

Hurricane Dora reinforces the water vapor ring and the heat dome buffer at the same time. Seven hurricanes developed in this location from early June to mid-August. All reinforced the ring of fire and heat dome. Meanwhile cyclonic turning and upward vertical motion caused by the cold cyclone west of Hawaii continues to churn out sinking warm dry air moving into the U.S. to reinforce the heat dome buffer.

The heat dome continues to receive warm air from the west and is blocked to the east. No cold frontspenetrated and ventilated the hot air building up in the dome since June. Dallas reports recordhigh temperatures between 104 and 110 degrees from August 1, through August 11, when the next cold front finally ventilates the heat dome.

The print and TV media report that the record temperatures are caused by global warming.This junk science propaganda is being used to brainwash the public and ourschool childrento believe that clean energy is the only way to prevent the dreaded tipping point from consuming Earth in 2100. This hypeis intended to bring great wealth to UN bureaucrats and US charlatans.

The heat dome has been entrenched for two months. Triple digit temperatures were recorded in Dallas for every day of the past month. High temperatures escalated during the past week reaching 100 degrees in Sacramento, 110 degrees in Dallas and 115 degrees in Yuma. Triple digit temperatures appear frequently in the California Central Valley and daily in the Great Basin. Monsoon showers and a small cyclone provide a respite north and west of Texas.

Record temperatures on August 4 included 115 degrees in Fort Smith Arkansas, 105 degrees in Springfield, Missouri, Memphis, Tennessee and Augusta, Georgia. A front is cooling North Dakota. A developing cyclone is cooling Kansas and Nebraska. Cold air has infiltrated the heat dome in the Northeast.

Hurricane Eugene has been contributing water vapor to the ring of fire for the past four days. The cold cyclone, formerly over Hawaii, has moved west to the dateline and weakened. Warm dry air generated in that cyclone is still moving toward the U.S. where it is reinforcing the buffer outside the ring of fire.

The inner heat dome winds trace a race track pattern over the entire country.

A cold pocket appears west of Vancouver Island. This nonlinear event will be responsible for destroying the sound stage at the Indiana fairgrounds and for heavy rainfall in the Northeast U.S. that later contributed to floods blamed by climate change lunatics on global warming.

The cold pocket, now a short wave trough, is approaching Indiana.

The small upper level cyclone over Indiana is responsible for blowing down the sound stage at the Indiana State Fair. Over the next three days it will receive additional upper level cold air support and become a major storm in the Northeast.

A back door cold front passes through Dallas with 0.79 inches of rain. Dallas' high temperature falls to 85 degrees. Triple digit temperatures resume the next day and persist for the rest of August.

The Pacific Northwest cold pocket that became a small Indiana cyclone is nowa major storm over the East Coast. Three days of soaking rain, 3 tornadoes, more than 300 high wind and 100 hail reports were recorded.Saturated grounds will soon be the basis forextreme flooding in the Northeast.

As this storm passes east, cold surface winds from the north will cool high temperatures into the 60's, 70's and 80's from New England to the Mid-Atlantic States.

Sinking warm air, from cyclonically turning winds around the storm center, is sending dry air south and west to reinforce the heat dome.

Cold pockets (nonlinear events), over Southeast Alaska and Ontario, Canada spawn surface cyclones with trailing cold fronts in advance of cold air outbreaks. The two cold fronts will rendezvous with and escort Hurricane Irene's remnant convection along the Eastern Seaboard and through New England.

August 26, 2011-

The high altitude cold pockets have generated surface cyclones over Hudson Bay and Labrador with trailing cold fronts in advance of cold air masses labeled, "H."

August 28, 2011

Both cold fronts merge with the remnant convection of Hurricane Irene as the combination moves through New England. This rare confluence of heavy rainfall events coming on top of saturated ground from heavy rainfall one week earlier, explains disastrous flooding over Vermont. The media and Al Gore blamed this extreme flooding event on manmade global warming. This catastrophic weather event was controlled by cold air at high altitude. Global warming had absolutely nothing to do with it. Extreme weather events caused by global warming/climate change are fear mongering fairy tales.

Warm, dry air from Hurricane Irene's cyclonic circulation is blown all the way to Texas. This prevents mid and high level clouds from forming. The heat wave becomes more oppressive. The temperature in Dallas is 106 degrees Fahrenheit.

Irene is being besieged by factors not included in computer models that predicted it would be a CAT 3 hurricane at landfall and a CAT 1 hurricane over New York City. Cold lows bracket the storm. As a result cold air is eroding Irene's outflow plumes in its east and west quadrants (See Appendix I for details). Dry air created by Irene is now returning and being drawn back into its circulation. Irene is beginning to weaken, not intensify. It will be only a CAT 1 hurricane at landfall.

Strong westerly winds have sheared off the southern half of Irene's upper structure exposing the storm's eye to satellite view. This is the coup de grace for Irene's surface wind speeds. It will be a weak tropical storm as it passes abreast of New York City. Storm surge is no longer feared. Flooding is now the primary concern for already saturated flood plains in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and New England.

Irene's redeveloped convection center is entering Vermont where flooding was of epic proportions.

Devastation of Killington, Vermont was showcased by Al Gore in his infomercial slide show on September 15, 2011. Gore attributed the extreme flooding event to Irene being strengthened by global warming and additional water vapor in the atmosphere caused by manmade carbon dioxide.This is junk science nonsense.

Tropical cyclones moving into mid-latitudes almost always bring concentrated water vapor and a strong convection center. Serious flooding is typical. In Irene's case, strong high altitude wind divergence over New England strengthened Irene's convection center over Vermont. The combination was catastrophic.

Flooding in the Northeast with a heat wave and drought in the West are typical of the dichotomy that often characterizes climate in the U. S. To blame this dichotomy on carbon dioxide warming of average global surface temperature and average low level water vapor content makes no sense. This is why global warming became climate change. It still makes no sense for climate change to be forced by average global surface temperature and average water vapor.

Gore's attempt to blame surface warming by manmade carbon dioxide and average global water vapor for Irene's extreme rainfall over Vermont is typical climate change foolishness.

A cold pocket appears (nonlinear) over Southeast Alaska. This little shot of energy will form a surface cyclone and trailing cold front that escorts the cold reservoir over the Rockies eastward. Three days later, the cold front will rendezvous with Tropical Storm Lee, now forming south of Louisiana.

September 4, 2011SFC

The cold pocket is now associated with a surface cyclone in Ontario, Canada. A cold air mass (H) pushes a cold front toward Tropical Storm Lee on the coast of Louisiana. Heavy rain is falling along the Gulf Coast.

September 6, 2011 SFC

As the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee moved northeast along the cold front, rainfall over 12 inches was recorded in Jackson, Mississippi; over 8 inches in Birmingham, Alabama; more than 10 inches in Chatanooga, Tennessee; nearly 5 inches in Kentucky, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Coming on the heels of the heavy rainfall from an earlier extratropical storm and from the remnants of Hurricane Irene, these rains caused flooding along the entire cold front.

Cold air at high altitude controlled this extreme weather event. Global warming was in the noise.

An upper level cyclone over the cold air mass controls the flow of Tropical Storm Lee's remnants as they pass northward along the cold front. This retrogression of the East coast cold reservoir moves the heat dome west of Texas. On this date, Dallas records a high temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the beginning of the end of the heat wave over Texas. Cold air at high altitude controls surface temperature too.

A cold pocket (nonlinear event) enters Alberta, Canada. High temperatures in Dallas are slowly increasing as the cold reservoir over the Mississippi Valley begins to move eastward and the cold reservoir over California pumps warm air into the heat dome over the four corners.

The cold pocket is now a massive cold-core cyclone over Ontario, Canada. It is releasing a cold outbreak over the U.S. Canada border. The cold reservoir over the Mississippi valley is gone. The heat dome has moved over Texas and Oklahoma. Dallas records a high temperature of 105 degrees Fahrenheit. Oklahoma City reports 102 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cold air at high altitude controlled record high surface temperatures.

September 14, 2011

A cold front extends from the surface cyclone in advance of the cold air outbreak. It will reinforce a stationary front over Texas.

September 16, 2011

The surface cyclone is now over Labrador. The cold front has passed into south Texas. Dallas records a high temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Oklahoma City measures 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

Again, cold air at high altitude controlled surface temperature.

DROUGHT RELIEF

Light rain has been falling since the cold front moved into Texas and became stationary. A total of 7.5 inches of rain is measured by the twelve principal cities of Texas from September 14 through September 17, 2011. On September 18, 2011, divergent winds in advance of an extended upper level cold trough reinforce updrafts over the stationary front in Texas. Nearly 6 more inches of rain falls in two days.

Divergent winds are better viewed from McIdas cloud motion winds. Changing wind directions and accelerating wind speeds, between South Texas and Kansas, indicate diverging winds causing strong updrafts responsible for the heavy rainfall.

The old cold front has moved through Texas. A new front, with strong convection in North Texas, Arkansas and Missouri, moves east. An upper level water vapor river, from Pacific Ocean convection passing through Mexico, feeds moisture to the storm complex.

A total of nearly 16 inches of rain is recorded among the twelve principal cities for September 2011.

East Pacific Ocean convection sends a water vapor river to supplement Gulf of Mexico moisture in the frontal complex. This humidifies upper levels allowing cloud growth to reach higher altitudes and provides ice crystals acting as condensation nuclei. Both processes intensify precipitation. This can be seen in South Texas.

Every snowstorm last winter and most tornado outbreaks in the spring were enhanced by water vapor rivers emanating from convection near Hawaii (See Appendices G and H).

Enhanced rainfall caused by divergent winds, strong updrafts and upper level water vapor rivers cannot be resolved by any climate prediction model. For that reason, the prediction of apocalyptic droughts next century by computer general circulation models touted by the UN IPCC, are nonsense. These false predictions were the basis for the 1997 Kyoto Protocol Agreements that have slowed economic growth in the industrial country signatories. The U.S. agreed to sign the same agreements at the recently concluded UN Climate Change Conference in Durban, South Africa.

On October 2, 2011, the general circulation over the Pacific Ocean looks like a carbon copy of last winter when the three-year California drought was snuffed out. Frigid air from Siberia is pouring over the Aleutian Islands behind a storm and cold front approaching the Pacific Northwest.

Three days later, the storm center is west of Vancouver Island. The cold front brought rainfall along the entire West coast. Snow fell at higher elevations. A cold pocket or short wave trough (wispy high clouds) is passing over the California/Oregon border.

The storm center is entering North Dakota. The cold pocket has become a cyclone in Arizona.

Water vapor imagery six hours later shows the storm center moving into Canada and the cold pocket cyclone still in Arizona.

The normal west to east (zonal) flow over North America has become a high amplitude (meridional) ridge, trough, ridge or warm, cold, warm system. A result of this climate change is strong upper level wind divergence in the Southwest. 500oct8

McIdas cloud motion winds display the upper wind divergence more clearly. Cyclonic winds turn abruptly to the north and accelerate rapidly to over 100 knots east of the cold cyclone. This is evidence of strong horizontal temperature contrast. Accelerating wind speeds and changing wind directions indicate strong upper level wind divergence causing powerful updrafts. Moisture flowing in from the Gulf of Mexico is lifted to the condensation level and above.

Heavy rain fell in central Texas from a cold front and squall line that formed under strongly diverging upper winds.

A high altitude water vapor river flowing from two Pacific Ocean tropical cyclones supplements moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. This humidifies upper levels allowing cloud growth to reach higher altitudes and provides ice crystals acting as condensation nuclei. Both processes intensify precipitation. Every snowstorm last winter and most tornado outbreaks in the spring were enhanced by water vapor rivers emanating from convection near Hawaii (See Appendices G and H).

Waco reported nearly 6 inches of rain in two days. Lubbock, San Angelo and Houston recorded more than 3 inches. Brownsville had an inch. Amarillo, Dallas and El Paso reported a trace or none. Relief from the extreme Texas drought accelerates.

National TV and print media have been stressing adverse consequences of the Texas drought, incorrectly blamed on global warming. No mention of this heavy rainfall relief of the drought appears in media reports.

Zonal flow returns. A cold pocket breaks away from an elongated trough and remains over New Mexico. The upper section passes over the Mississippi Valley. Another elongated trough moves into Saskatchewan. Upper level divergent winds in advance of the cold pocket caused light rain to fall over Texas. Light rain falls in east Texas.

This cold pocket has more important things to do farther downwind. On October 30, 2011 it will set a record for snowfall in October.

The cold pocket and elongated trough combine into a Nor'easter. Nearly two feet of snow fell throughout the Northeast. This sequence of events under west to east storm tracks was common during the winter of 2011. It is not effective for hydrating the South. Meridional flow and a change in storm tracks will soon solve that problem.

A polar front segment extends from the dateline northeast to Alaska. A warm ridge pushes the front's leading edge north while cold air pushes the front's trailing edge south. Cloud tops turn south as jet stream winds move beyond the front.

During the summer, storm tracks over North America, from the Pacific Ocean, were predominantly northeast then east over the heat dome. Without storm winds and precipitation, the South became parched. Now the atmosphere must relieve the southern drought, especially over Texas. It will do so by establishing new storm tracks toward the south.

The temperature contrast across the polar front powers jet stream winds at high altitude. The jet stream turns south as it moves beyond the front. Initially these winds double back to the west forming a warm anticyclone. Further east, cold winds move into warmer environs and are turned east. Cold pockets generate surface storms that move in this steering flow.

FYI: Cold winds, moving south from the polar jet stream, turn cyclonically as the surroundings become warmer. With sufficient temperature contrast, closed cyclones form. As the temperature contrast strengthens, these cold cyclones become strong enough to create diverging winds that lift moisture from the surface to very high altitudes. These cyclones are elements of a warm season cold air corridor labelled the Tropical Upper Tropospheric Trough (TUTT). The TUTT powers the subtropical jet stream, seen here between Hawaii and the Equator. The subtropical jet stream carries water vapor lifted by cold cyclones. These water vapor rivers enhance moisture in storms that form over North America.

Weak cyclones over the dateline and over Hawaii are remnants of TUTT cyclones.

Polar front jet stream winds turn south and weaken as they outrun the front offshore of the Pacific Northwest. Initially these winds backtrack forming an anticyclone. As the cold winds move farther south they turn cyclonically and are reinforced by the subtropical jet stream over Southern California. A weakening cold cyclone southwest of Baja California has cooled ocean surface and subsurface waters by enhancing evaporation through convection.

Convection from the cold cyclone over the dateline is sending a water vapor river into Alaska and the Northwest U.S. via the polar front jet stream. A water vapor river from the cyclone north of Hawaii supplies a developing storm entering Nevada. Convection east of Hawaii from a previous cyclone created a water vapor river that supplied moisture to an earlier storm that moved through Arizona. All of this convection cools the ocean and warms the upper atmosphere. La Nina is often mistaken as the cause of this ocean cooling.

Surface temperature analyses do not detect ocean cooling from atmospheric convection or advection. Cooling causes surface water to sink and be replaced by warmer subsurface water. This is one of many reasons that global warming is junk science.

The cold pocket in Nevada had its genesis in cold air west of Vancouver Island. A precise balance, between a warm air ridge in advance of the polar front and cold air to the east, forces the cold pocket to move south instead of on a more normal easterly track. This cold pocket is receiving upper level moisture in a water vapor river from Hawaii.

The cold pocket has moved through Arizona and New Mexico into Colorado as a cold cyclone. Denver experiences a blizzard. A surface cyclone (not shown) has formed under divergent winds in the Texas Panhandle. The storm is too far north to bring precipitation to Texas. Rain falls in the Midwest and the East. The atmosphere must try again to target the Texas drought.

A warm ridge in advance of the next polar front segment, moving into Alaska, propels another cold pocket southeast. Convection can be seen in a cold air reservoir behind the polar front segment entering Southern California.

A delicate balance between warm and cold air has placed this cold pocket precisely on target in Arizona again. This is remarkable considering the longer distance, different location and orientation of the polar front and warm ridge. Light snow falls in Arizona and New Mexico but Texas stays dry. Rain falls in the Plains.

The next polar front segment sends another cold pocket to Southern California. The location and orientation of this polar front segment differs appreciably from the last two. Yet the cold pocket is on the same target as others before.

The cyclone forming over the western Aleutian Islands is the precursor of a new storm track that will target the Texas drought. Development of this storm track will be revealed by satellite imagery.

Despite a different location and orientation of the polar front segment, the Arizona target is hit again. It is amazing that the balance between warm and cold air is unerring in its cyclone placement. Obviously the atmosphere intends to relieve the Southwest drought.

A water vapor river flows from Hawaii into Oklahoma where tornadoes will begin to rumble in two hours. Water vapor humidifies upper levels and increases ice crystals, which act as condensation nuclei, allowing cloud growth upward to high altitudes forming violent thunderstorms and tornadoes.

Diverging upper winds over a surface front lift warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico to very high altitudes. Additional moisture from a water vapor river allows cloud growth to higher altitudes spawning six tornadoes over Oklahoma.

Six tornadoes plowed through southwestern Oklahoma six to eight hours ago. The water vapor river continues to supplement this storm system with moisture from Hawaii.

Diverging upper winds over a surface front spawn nineteen tornadoes over Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana.

Tornadoes will begin to form in one hour over Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana.

This is the location of the upper level cold cyclone between the two tornado outbreaks. Diverging winds in advance of the cyclone are obvious. Despite all of the ingredients for heavy rainfall including warm air from the Gulf of Mexico at the surface, diverging upper level winds and a water vapor river, Texas cities reported only two inches of rain. Moderate rain was reported in Nebraska, Missouri and Louisiana. Indeed Texas is a difficult target for mid-latitude storms. In this case the storm track was too far to the north.

Unable to relieve the Texas drought with the new storm track, the atmosphere pulls out a new trick. Cloud top temperature imagery reveals a cyclone forming in very cold air at the west end of the Aleutian Islands. This nonlinear event, together with additional nonlinear events along a circuitous route, will help relieve the Texas drought. This sequence of events will demonstrate again that no computer model can predict drought relief, months, years or centuries in advance. General circulation, radiative and statistical models cannot account accurately for nonlinear events.

Frigid air behind an arctic front is escorted by the cyclone, now approaching Kodiak Island.

The cyclone, approaching Kodiak Island, seen here in water vapor imagery, is being sheared off from the arctic front. It is being pushed southward as a cold pocket by powerful northerly winds in advance of a ridge and polar front segment moving into the Bering Sea.

Though less distinct, it is necessary to follow cold pocket changes in water vapor imagery. Other radiometers cannot follow important details of its progress.

The cold pocket is being propelled southward by very strong northerly winds evident from a few cloud motion computations (There are few clouds in the area).

The cold pocket has moved rapidly south into the cold air behind a polar front segment.

A severe storm in the Bering Sea is moving toward the coast of western Alaska.

On November 9, 2011 a storm with hurricane force winds moved through the Bering Sea pummeling Nome, Alaska and other coastal towns with snow and ice floes on high seas. The media labeled this near-record event a snowcane. Of course the national media explanation was global warming. Ignorance is bliss when one is tasked to explain why an extreme weather event occurs. One can always count on being able to con the public with global warming or climate change.

Actually climate change was correct. But this change had nothing to do with burning fossil fuels or carbon dioxide emissions. It was a typical temporary circulation change from zonal to meridional. Storm tracks over the Pacific Ocean were being moved. Normally, mature storms move south of the Aleutian Islands into the Gulf of Alaska. That track was moved into the Bering Sea by a ridge that formed over the Gulf of Alaska. This temporary ridge blocked westerly winds from moving storms from west to east over the U.S. It forced storms to move south down the West coast then into the Southwest U.S. This change could better relieve the extreme drought in Texas and the lesser droughts in the Southwest and along the Gulf of Mexico.

There will be other extreme weather events caused by this change to the storm track direction.

600 miles south of the storm, the cold pocket shows up as a field of small dots in water vapor imagery. These are convective towers caused when cold air overrides warm moist air.

The cold pocket is now a cyclone. Diverging winds ahead of the cyclone are evidenced by the solid water vapor mass, approaching the polar front segment.

The cyclone and polar front merge. This is typical of cyclogenesis over the North Pacific Ocean.

Vertically stacked cyclonic flow at all levels identifies this as cyclogenesis of a cold-core cyclone. Cold-core cyclones normally show little movement.

Diverging winds east of the cold-core cyclone lift massive amounts of moisture into a water vapor river flowing into the Pacific Northwest. The cold cyclone over Hawaii is being reinforced with cold air from the polar front jet stream.

Convection identifies the cold center of the cold-core cyclone. East of the center, divergent winds form the characteristic triangular-shaped high cloud deck and the water vapor river. The water vapor river from Hawaii is reinforcing a storm passing through Texas.

The cold-core cyclone, most intense at upper levels, is in equilibrium between steering flows north, south, east and west. At this point it is meandering.

The weak upper level cold cyclone over Hawaii is being reinforced with cold air from the polar front jet stream. It will strengthen the subtropical jet stream that provides a steering flow from Southern California into the Southeast.

One day later, the next ridge and polar front segment positions strong northerly winds over the cold-core cyclone, now offshore of central California.

The circuitous route taken over the past week places the cyclone over Baja California as it comes ashore. This more southerly storm track results in 4 inches of rainfall reported by the cities of Texas. This is the most two day rainfall in more than a month.

Targeting the Texas drought with extratropical storms is proving extremely difficult. A storm track slightly too far north or too far south results in little or no rain for Texas due primarily to mountainous terrain.

Two more storms moved through Texas on similar tracks during the month. Over 13 inches of rain was recorded by Texas cities in November. At this rate it will take a long time to completely extinguish the Texas drought.

This is another example of U.S. Government sponsored spraying of chemicals on clouds and into the Pacific Ocean. Ostensibly this is Geoengineering to increase reflection of sunlight from clouds in order to cool the ocean surface and suppress global warming. This crackpot scientific experiment has been going on since at least 2000. It is a danger to humanity. Where is EPA when we need it?

NEXT SEQUENCE-

A cold pocket is approaching British Columbia. A trend following forecast would place the mature storm somewhere in Canada.

Instead, the cold pocket plunges into Oregon without significant surface storm development. The surrounding wind flow suggests that the cold pocket and developing surface storm should move east from here.

Not this time. The cold pocket plunged further south to Southern California. At this time a ridge has come onshore in the Pacific Northwest. The combination of the ridge over the cyclone resulted in fierce Santa Ana winds at the surface.

December 01, 2011

Extremely tight spacing of the isobars from Colorado to the West Coast indicate wind speeds that attained hurricane force. A 150 mph wind gust was measured on one mountaintop in California. Damage caused by falling trees was extensive and unusual.

Evidently the atmosphere's purpose for this extreme weather event was to move the storm track far enough south to relieve the drought in the Southwest. Over the next six days, rain fell from Southern California to Texas. The drought in Texas benefited from more than two inches of rain in Dallas and Waco. Houston reported more than an inch and other locations in Texas measured close to one-half inch.

The abrupt storm track jump, of a cold-core cyclone approaching British Columbia, one-thousand miles south to Arizona, in less than two days is remarkable. As a result, snow and rain fell in the parched Southwest. During the next five days, twelve principal Texas cities recorded over 10 inches of rainfall. This example should give pause to the scientific consensus that maintains climate change science is settled based on climate prediction models that predict apocalyptic droughts. These models assume the atmosphere has no internal thermostatic or fresh water distribution controls. This example suggests otherwise.

Satellite imagery and McIdas cloud motion winds show an intricate and precisely choreographed combination of cyclogenesis, frontogenesis and water vapor river genesis that results in this remarkable storm track jump and subsequent drought relief. These processes are nonlinear and cannot be replicated in any climate prediction model.

A cold pocket is approaching a Polar Front segment from the west. It is identified by the blob of high altitude clouds about 400 miles south of the westernmost Aleutian Islands. Amazingly it It will eventually bring copious rain to Texas.

One day later, the cold pocket is morphing into a cold-core cyclone. This is evident from the bulge in the polar front caused by cyclonic winds near the surface. Following closely behind is another cold pocket morphing into a cold-core cyclone. This is evident from the cold front that has formed in cyclonic winds near the surface. These cold-core cyclones will interact for the purpose of relieving the drought over the South U.S.

This is the cyclogenesis pair as seen in water vapor imagery. Cyclogenesis is also occurring east of Hawaii behind an upper level subtropical front and jet stream. This new cyclone will support the other new cyclones to relieve the Texas drought.

A day later, the original cold pocket is a cyclone approaching British Columbia. The trailing cyclone is over the Aleutian Islands. Its' cold front is merging with the Polar Front. A new cyclone is forming east of Hawaii. Convection from this cyclone reinforces a water vapor river flowing across the Southwest into Texas.

An Arctic front extending from the cyclone over the Aleutian Islands is overtaking and replacing the southernmost segment of the Polar Front. High cloud blow off, downstream of the Aleutian cyclone, indicates that wind from the north is enveloping the Vancouver Island cyclone and northernmost segment of the polar front. This new steering current abruptly turns the storm track south.

The original cyclone is over Salt Lake City moving south under the northerly winds downstream of the Arctic front. The water vapor river, from the new cyclone east of Hawaii, is providing moisture to the Salt Lake City cyclone.

Jet stream winds trace the strong temperature contrast near the surface. The powerful ridge in the Gulf of Alaska is responsible for the new storm track south along the West Coast, then east in the southern U.S. It should help to relieve the drought in the South. This temporary ridge is also blocking Siberian air from reaching Canada and the U.S. It is sending the mid-Pacific storm track farther north in Alaska. This is a major climate change pattern. If continued it willcause warm temperatures and a dearth of snow in the U.S. while itrelieves the southern drought.

One day later, the original cyclone is over Arizona with its polar front segment still intact through Mexico into Arizona. Hurricane force Santa Ana winds blow west from Colorado across Utah, Nevada and California.

The cold-core cyclone east of Hawaii has dissipated. A new cold-core cyclone is forming north of Hawaii.

A day later, the cyclone remains in Arizona. Light snow, associated with divergent upper level winds and a water vapor river over the weakening cold front, is falling in Arizona and New Mexico. Light rain is falling throughout Texas. The cold front is washing out over the Pacific Ocean.

Notice the unnatural tracks in the clouds west of Oregon. This is a routine occurrence over the ocean along the U.S. West Coast. It can only be caused by the U.S. Government dumping chemicals in the atmosphere and ocean. And the U.S. Government wants to protect us from global warming? Who is protecting us from the U.S. Government?

Here are similar cloud tracks three days later. It suggests that the Canadians are also involved in dumping chemicals on clouds and the ocean. These tracks do not show up in water vapor imagery. They are not contrails.

As the original cyclone moved south into Arizona the cyclone east of Hawaii and its water vapor river became unnecessary and atrophied. The new Pacific Ocean cyclone, north of Hawaii, replaced and strengthened the water vapor river into Texas. A cold pocket in New Mexico broke away from the original cyclone, still in Arizona. The cold pocket is creating upper level diverging winds and strong updrafts. Snow fell in Arizona and New Mexico. Rain is beginning to fall in Texas.

The cold-core cyclone is still over Arizona with a cold pocket in New Mexico. The water vapor river continues to deliver moisture from Hawaii to Texas and the Midwest. Moderate rain falls in Texas.

Divergent upper level winds promote moderate rainfall over Texas and the Midwest.

A new cyclone with its own cold front drops in to Arizona. Rain falls more heavily from the old cold front persisting in east Texas. Upper level wind divergence provides the needed lift. Moisture from the Gulf of Mexico is supplemented by the water vapor river from Hawaii.

Moderate rain falls over Texas and the Midwest. A total of more than 5 inches of rain is reported from cities in Texas.

Divergent winds over east Texas and the Midwest provide the updrafts.

The new year begins with frigid air from Siberia dammed up against a south-north polar front segment off the West Coast. A west-east polar front segment terminates north of Hawaii.

A nearly stationary convection center, 1200 miles south of Baja California, is powering the subtropical jet stream and cooling the ocean surface. This ocean cooling is often confused with La Nina.

Temperature contrasts, across the polar front, power the thermal wind driven jet stream. When the polar front terminates north of Hawaii the jet stream loses speed and turns southeast until thermal winds in the next polar front segment propel the jet stream north into Alaska and Canada.

Low clouds reveal polar front segments and cold air reservoirs over the ocean. Some cold air is leaking in across the Rocky Mountains. Most cold air continues to move north accounting for the unusually heavy snowfall in Alaska and dearth of snowfall in the U.S. this winter.

When the polar front segment turns southeast over the U.S., the thermal wind jet stream follows.

Convection near the Equator interacts with cold air moving south from the polar front jet stream to power a subtropical jet stream segment into Texas.

A polar front segment extends from Hawaii to the Pacific Northwest. High clouds over the western Plains are caused by convection resulting from cold air turning south over warm air in advance of the polar front ridge. Absence of high clouds over Southern California and Arizona is caused by sinking warm air under the ridge.

A variation on the drought relief storm track that does not require a pre-existing cold pocket, has the polar front jet stream turning south over the Plains states. Sinking warm and dry air is trapped in a heat dome anticyclone over Southern California and Nevada. Cold air forms a cyclone over west Texas. Record high surface temperatures appear under the heat dome.

This separation of warm and cold air south of the polar front jet stream occurs frequently over the North Pacific Ocean. Warm air close to the jet stream doubles back forming a heat dome that extends to the ocean surface as the semi-permanent Subtropical Anticyclone. Colder air begins to turn cyclonically forming cold-core cyclones that extract moisture from the ocean, sending it in water vapor rivers to developing storms in the U.S. These cold-core cyclones make up the Tropical Upper Tropospheric Trough (TUTT). The TUTT propels the subtropical jet stream that carries the water vapor rivers. Rarely does this circulation system extend inland over the U.S. But it is convenient now to relieve the drought without the need for a preexisting cold pocket.

Water vapor imagery shows polar front moisture and clouds turning south over the western Plains. Upper level cyclones, as in the TUTT, have formed offshore of Southern California and in West Texas and Mexico.

The heat dome extends farther east while the western Texas cyclone becomes better organized.

The cyclone over Mexico has a strong temperature contrast but weak winds due to mountainous terrain. Despite a surface front and moisture flowing onshore from the Gulf of Mexico, there is no rainfall in Texas. This is due to a lack of upper wind divergence with a weak circulation. The Texas drought is a tough nut to crack. A fine line separates a storm track with precipitationand storm tracks too far south and too far north to bring rain.

The upper level cyclone over Mexico and south Texas is weak. It has no support from a water vapor river.

Water vapor imagery reveals the ring of fire forming north of the heat dome (Remember water vapor is invisible to the human eye and does not impede sunlight). The sun bakes the surface. Water vapor in the ring of fire traps the heat. More than 1700 surface high temperature records were set in the U.S. under this heat dome. This is an upper level circulation feature. Those who attribute the high temperature records to global warming are nuts. These are the same junk science experts who said heavy snow last winter was caused by global warming.

Weak divergent winds lift water vapor over south Texas in advance of the cold cyclone in west Texas and Mexico.

The weak upper level cyclone over south Texas is moving offshore. It has produced only light rain in Brownsville, Texas. A cold pocket approaching Vancouver Island portends a return to the storm track south along the West Coast then east through Texas.

The weak upper level cold cyclone moves into the Gulf of Mexico. Upper level cyclogenesis typical of the general circulation over the North Pacific Ocean failed to relieve the Texas drought.

A polar front segment moves into British Columbia. Its cyclone has moved aberrantly southeast to a point south of Kodiak Island where it is pumping frigid air toward the front, increasing the temperature contrast across the front, which accelerates the thermal wind and the jet stream. Two weak arctic fronts follow in succession.

Two days later the cold pocket off Vancouver Island is now a cyclone in Arizona. The ridge moving onshore along the West Coast forces the cyclone south.

The ridge has pushed the cyclone into Mexico and West Texas. This is the sweet spot for a storm track to bring heavy precipitation to Texas.

Strong diverging winds, over moisture from the Gulf of Mexico, and a water vapor river are responsible for heavy rain in Texas.

Rainfall in Texas is supported by a water vapor river from convection over the eastern Pacific Ocean. The water vapor river increases precipitation by allowing cloud growth to higher altitudes and by increasing ice crystals that act as condensation nuclei.

A total of 7.0 inches of rain fell in twelve Texas cities. 7 inches fell in two Louisiana cities bordering Texas. Flash floods occurred in West Texas.

Heavy rain fell throughout the Southeast. A tornado was confirmed in western North Carolina.

The North Carolina tornado formed under strong upper level divergent winds. This was an ingredient in the devastating tornado outbreaks in Spring 2011.

A major cold outbreakdescends on the storm that caused heavy rain in the Southeast and a tornado in North Carolina. The two combine to produce the first major snowstorm of the winter in the Midwest and Northeast.

A view of low level clouds in the cold outbreak over the Midwest and in the storm over the Southeast that together become a major snowstorm. Global warming had nothing to do with this snowfall.

The cold outbreak and deep south storm track combine to create a major snow storm.

A polar front segment is moving into the Pacific Northwest. An arctic front is pushing against it. The two fronts increase the thickness contrast (temperature change with height) across the fronts. This accelerates the thickness wind and the jet stream where the two fronts merge at the U.S.-Canada border.

The two jet streams merge, top out near Vancouver Island and plunge south along the West Coast.

The jet stream's momentum carries it south to a point of maximum cyclonic turning where a cold-pocket forms in Arizona. Again, the atmosphere is unerring in initiating a storm track out of Arizona.

A water vapor river, from convection over the eastern Pacific Ocean, supports the cyclone passing through Texas.

The storm track finds the sweet spot in West Texas where diverging winds over moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and a water vapor river from the eastern Pacific Ocean bring drought relief to Texas.

Convective precipitation is falling from the storm center over West Texas. Heavier precipitation is falling from the triangular cloud deck caused by diverging winds over East Texas.

Twelve Texas cities and two Louisiana border cities recorded 21 inches of rain in two days.

A new convection center forms near the Equator, in the eastern Pacific Ocean, southwest of California. Eventually it will increase precipitation by providing high altitude water vapor to developing storms in Mexico and the U.S.

The new convection center is regenerating a subtropical jet stream segment. The convection results from diverging winds in advance of a high altitude cold cyclone lifting moisture from the ocean surface. Evaporation to sustain this convection cools sea surface and subsurface temperatures. La Nina is mistaken for this ocean cooling near the Equator.

NEW SEQUENCE:

Cloud top temperatures trace an intact cloud deck that has separated from the Himalayas and is now moving east, in the Polar Night Vortex, south of Japan. It is linking with a polar front segment that is being led and reinforced by a regenerating cyclone system. A succession of cold pockets is moving out of Siberia across the North Pacific Ocean. One is located west of Hokkaido in the Sea of Japan. One is east of Honshu and another is 600 miles south of Kamchatka. These cold pockets initiate formation of cyclones that control the direction and flow of polar front segments and the polar front jet stream. No climate prediction model can replicate these nonlinear atmospheric processes.

One day later, the cold pocket, formerly south of Kamchatka, is over the dateline, chasing a regenerating polar front segment. The cold pocket, formerly east of Honshu is becoming a cyclone picking up the Himalayan polar front segment south of Kamchatka. The Sea of Japan cold pocket is also becoming a cyclone and generating its own polar front segment.

Another day finds the easternmost cold pocket has moved over the eastern Pacific Ocean. Its' surprising evolution will be followed elsewhere. The other cold pockets have become cyclones that lead polar front segments formed from cold air pushed south and east to increase low level temperature contrasts. Low level temperature contrasts power high altitude thermal winds, which accelerate polar front jet streams.

Most of these polar front segments will move under the influence of the Polar Night Vortex, cyclone dynamics and circulation, steering flows and their own thermal winds, to profoundly influence North American weather and climate change in a few days.

Returning to the original January 30 date over the eastern Pacific Ocean, the cold pocket south of Kamchatka is approaching two polar front segments stacked one next to the other. This orientation is unusual. Most mature polar front segments continue to beled by a cyclone. Cyclones tend to move north, moving the polar front segment and its jet stream into a more south-north orientation. The cyclones leading these two polar front segments have weakened suggesting a lack of cold air. As a result jet stream flow is zonal. It outruns the polar fronts and moves into Southern California and Mexico. A cyclone moving into South Texas brought rain to drought stricken Mexico as well as to Texas.

There are two west to east oriented jet streams over the stacked polar fronts. This creates zonal flow across the North Pacific Ocean until the jet streams begin to move south at the end of the polar front segments.

Low level clouds reveal front structures and high level blow offs trace jet streams from this unusual polar front conglomerate. Cyclones at the leading end of the two polar front segments are beginning to regenerate. Rain is falling in Mexico and in South Texas

.

The two polar front jet streams merge, slow down and create weak cold pockets in California and in West Texas.

The peculiar orientation of polar front segments sent the jet stream south into Mexico and Texas. During the next two days, 2 inches of rain fell over several Texas cities.

Droughts exist in the absence of cyclones and fronts. Global warming enthusiasts that maintain droughts are caused by burning fossil fuels should try to explain how the atmosphere targets drought relief by reorienting polar front jet streams with control exercised by nonlinear cyclones.

Regeneration of the cyclone near Kodiak Island moves Siberian air and the developing cold pocket closer to the midpoint of the polar front segment. The next cyclone and polar front segment follow closely behind.

One day later, the cold pocket merges with and creates cyclogenesis on the polar front segment. Strong northerly surface winds move frigid Siberian air rapidly southeast to increase the temperature contrast across the front. This increases thermal wind and jet stream wind speeds as seen in high cloud blow off.

Accelerated jet stream winds flow over the top of the polar front segment and then double back to flow south along the West Coast.

Accelerated jet stream winds flow over the top and then rapidly south to the point at which cold and warm air reach a balance andcyclonic curvature is maximized around a cold pocket in Arizona. Again the atmosphere hit the desired storm track target.

Denver reported a record February snowfall of two feet in one day from this cold air outbreak.

Warm winds accelerated northward by the new cyclone turn clockwise in a colder environment and double back in a warmer environment to form an elongated cyclone under a closed anticyclone. This is referred to as a trapped low. Convection over the eastern Pacific Ocean interacts with cold air plunging south to accelerate the subtropical jet stream over Baja California.

Convection over the eastern Pacific Ocean supplements the cyclone developing over the Plains with high altitude moisture.

The trapped low, a consequence of polar front cyclogenesis in the Aleutian Islands and further south, is creating strong diverging winds (speed and direction) over Texas.

Cloud growth to higher altitudes is allowed by the water vapor river from convection over the eastern Pacific Ocean. Twelve Texas cities record over 8 inches of rain in two days. Rain falls in Mexico.

In WestPac, a cold pocket moved out of Siberia into the Sea of Japan. It is recognized by the frigid green and yellow cloud top temperatures approaching Honshu in the Sea of Japan. The Western Pacific atmosphere is unusually warm for this time of year. Normally there is a solid polar front with green and yellow cloud tops. In this case the polar front is washed out with no high clouds.

Evidently the Polar Night Vortex has moved to the other side of the planet causing extreme cold in Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Events over EastPac suggest a reason for this Arctic Oscillation.

Meanwhile in EastPac, the Honshu and Hokkaido cyclones have intensified in cold air and are moving their polar front segments northward. A polar front segment not controlled by a cyclone moves in rapidly from the west.

Moving through frigid air flowing south from Siberia, the Siberian cold pocket and its front are beginning to perk up and accelerate. The Honshu and Hokkaido cyclones and polar front segments are stalled in relatively warm air. The unaccompanied polar front segment has stalled north of Hawaii.

Differential speeds result in the unescorted polar front segment catching up to the Honshu cyclone and polar front segment stalled in warm air. The Siberian cold pocket and polar front segment is threatening a collision.

The jet stream turns abruptly northwest as it accelerates around the Honshu cold-core cyclone. The Siberian cold pocket is detectable only as a short wave trough in the flow south of the Aleutian Islands.

The unaccompanied polar front segment joins and reinforces the Honshu cyclone and polar front segment. The Siberian cold pocket is transitioning into a cyclone.

A day later, both cyclones begin to rotate around each other in much colder air.

The peculiar polar front segment orientation has created a thermal wind that has the jet stream reversing course. Warm air is trapped over the Gulf of Alaska and Alaska. The subtropical westerly wind normally south of Hawaii has disappeared.

This polar front segment has been turned completely around and upside down. Believe it or not there is an explanation for this unusual behavior.

Offshore of Northern California, a cold pocket is being forced southeast under the warm air accumulated by the polar front segment congregation. It will become a trapped low and help to relieve the drought in Mexico.

Cyclonic circulation around the Honshu system was much stronger and captured the Siberian cyclone. The combination has spread cold Siberian air behind a polar front segment all the way to Hawaii and warm air over Alaska and Canada. If drought relief is the objective, there is a rational explanation for this mix-up of polar front segments and topsy-turvy air masses. Notice the cyclone forming offshore of Southern California.

Thermal winds over the polar front segments are well behaved. The polar front jet stream turns northeast over Hawaii. Where that polar front segment makes a 90 degree turn to the left, the flow separates into two branches. One branch slowly turns south. The other branch abruptly turns northwest and merges with the very peculiar jet stream proceeding west over the Aleutian Islands. This turns the atmosphere upside down with warm air to the north and cold air to the south. The Polar Night Vortex is displaced far poleward. Meanwhile, an Arctic front crossing the dateline heading east just brings in more cold air to lower latitudes.

An upper level cyclone, developing in cold air moving southeast offshore of Southern California, shows strong divergence from Baja California to Northern California. Notice, there is no subtropical jet stream or water vapor river coming from the eastern Pacific Ocean. There is no sign of the Polar Night Vortex suggesting an Arctic Oscillation toward the opposite hemisphere. This accords with extreme cold and heavy snow in Eastern Europe.

Rain falls along the West Coast from Mexico to Washington.

The cyclone over Baja California is trapped beneath a warm ridge that extends into Canada. Cyclones normally move poleward. Trapped cyclones are prevented from moving north. Heavy rain is falling in Mexico.

The trapped cyclone is forced farther south by a ridge moving onshore along the West coast. More rain helps to relieve the drought in Mexico. A cold pocket, moving through Arizona, is bringing rain to Texas.

The cold pocket, moving through Texas, brings rain to northern Texas. Rain from the trapped low falls across Mexico and southern Texas.

The trapped cyclone is forced further south. The cold pocket in Texas brings rain to northern Texas. The trapped low continues to feed rain into Mexico. Very warm air aloft extends along the Rockies into western Canada and the Northwest Territories. Contribution of the trapped low to relief of the Mexican and Texas droughts explains the weird topsy-turvy polar front segment turnaround. It produced the upper level warm air that trapped the cold cyclone west of Mexico.

Appendix C.The Extreme East Coast Weather Event of July 3, 2011:

There is not a cloud in the sky and seas are calm, 150 miles east of Cape Hatteras, on July 1, 2011. Carbon dioxide must be warming the ocean and air to make this a perfect day to sail, fish or just cruise. A cold front is moving through but it is breaking up and weakening. Besides, cold fronts in July are not a problem.

A day later, two bulges in cold front clouds, east of Cape Hatteras and east of Cape Cod, portend trouble. The frontal surface bulges are caused by counter clockwise flow around surface cyclones that formed behind the front. Before satellite data, it was believed that all cyclones resulted from instability in surface fronts caused by the temperature contrast in the front. Satellite imagery proves that cyclones form initially in the cold air behind fronts. Since cold fronts in July rarely have strong temperature contrasts, weak cyclones should move along the front and pose little danger to our sailors. There seems to be no need to change course or return to port.

The cause of this cyclogenesis is a high altitude cold air outbreak. The evidence can be seen in the wispy water vapor image of two high altitude cold cyclones. One is over New Jersey. The other is north of Cape Cod. This is dire for those at sea.

McIDAS computed cloud motion winds show cold air at high altitude being pumped south along the East Coast creating a cold pocket or short-wave trough over the coast. Surface cyclones form under strongly divergent upper winds and upward vertical motion in advance of the trough.

One cold core cyclone has merged with the front. The other is southeast of Cape Cod. A violent storm rages beneath this high level cold low.

Both cold core cyclones are evident in the wind field. One is east of New Jersey. The other is over Nova Scotia. A surface cyclone is forming east of North Carolina. Triple cold core cyclones pull a cold air outbreak south over the entire East Coast. Jet stream thermal wind speeds accelerate due to the strong temperature contrast near the surface. Directional shear and jet stream acceleration are potent ingredients for surface cyclone development and intense thunderstorms along the front.

Strong convection, from high altitude wind divergence over a cold front and warm moist air over the Gulf Stream, results in a violent storm with 100 kt.+ surface winds east of Cape Hatteras and 50 kt.+ northerly winds along the coast from Cape Cod to Florida. Our sailors are holding on for dear life.

Triple cyclones give a peculiar racetrack pattern to upper level water vapor and clouds. Moderate rain fell along the coast to South Carolina. Temperatures fell to the mid 50's in New England. A high altitude cold air outbreak triggered this extreme weather event in July. Water vapor from Gulf Stream waters pulled upward by frontal convection and upper wind divergence powered this super storm. Global warming had no influence. Carbon dioxide warming of 1 or 2 degrees Fahrenheit in a century was a pushover for cooling by this cold air outbreak and its attendant cyclones.

Appendix D. Extreme Weather Events During December 2010-

Red vectors identify winds from the surface up to two miles high. Green is for winds from 2 to 5 miles; blue is from 5 to 10 miles high. One wind barb signifies 10 knots; atriangle is 50 knots. Jet streams have winds equal to or greater than 50 knots.

A cyclonehas formed in cold air at high altitude near the Dateline west of Hawaii. It is being reinforced with cold air by strong northerly winds (left margin). The upper level cyclone has extended to the ocean surface. This identifies it as a cold-core cyclone. High altitude winds east of the cyclone center fan out or diverge causingstrong upward vertical motion, water vapor, clouds and precipitation. This is the upper atmosphere process responsible for most extreme precipitation and tornadoes in mid-latitudes.

These are cloud top temperatures.Orange and yellow locate very cold and therefore high cloud tops, normally associated with heavy precipitation. Diverging upper winds have raised massive amounts of water vapor to the level of condensation and above. A band of high clouds proceeds to California over the polar front seen as the white near-surface band between cold and warm air. Cold air can be identified by the speckled clouds north of the front. The powerful cold core cyclone in the Gulf of Alaska reinforces the temperature contrast by feeding cold air from Siberia and Alaska to the polar front. The temperature contrast at the front influencesthe jet stream speed.

The polar front jet stream moves a river of water vapor from the Dateline to California. This is the source of water vapor for rainfall and snowfall on the West Coast.

The polar frront jet stream flows from California to North Carolina in almost a straight line. This is zonal flow. Little precipitation occurs along the polar front. This zonal wind pattern is unstable. It portends extreme weather.

With a steady flow of frigid air from Siberia and Alaska, the polar front has pushed south to the latitude of Hawaii. Heavy rainhas been soaking Southern California, Arizona and Utahfor two days. More heavy rain during the next two days causes record floods. Heavy snow falls in the Sierra Nevada and Rocky mountains. A new influx of Siberian air can be seen following an arctic front approaching the Aleutian Islands. This air is so cold that it will soon trap several oceangoing ships in ice on the Sea of Okhotsk.

Cold air has reinforced and moved the cold-core cyclone, near the Dateline, northward to cut offcold air from Siberia.The powerful cold-core cyclone in the Gulf of Alaska has lost its frigid air source of energy. Ithas broken up intofour small weak cyclones. Without a strong cold-core cyclone in the Gulf of Alaska and cut off from frigid Siberian air, the polar front could not be maintainedat the latitude of Hawaii. The front has reformed farther north and comes ashore over Oregon and Washington. The cloud mass over Utah and Arizona is a tiny newupper atmosphere cyclone. In four days it will become a raging East Coast blizzard. But first the atmosphere must coordinate formation of a cold outbreak to meet and intensify this infant storm. We shall observe this process.

The cold-core low near the Dateline has collapsed. Frigid Siberian airagain moving into the Eastern Pacific has strengthened the Gulf of Alaska cyclone and moved thepolar front south.

Siberian air has moved the polar front all the way down to the latitude of Hawaii again. The front makes a sharpturn to the northandextends along the West Coastfrom Southern California to Alaska.Rain and snow fall fromnorthern California to Alaska.

The atmosphere has erected a barrier to zonal flow along the West Coast similar to the earlier barrier near the Dateline. The Dateline barrier forced the jet stream to move north then dive south. This caused floods in the Southwest. Later it resulted in thispile-up of extremely cold air offshore of the West Coast. The strong temperature contrast at the front has forced the thermal wind jet stream to turn abruptly to the north. It will soon dive south,forcing another cold outbreak over the U.S.This cold outbreak will intensify the tiny cyclone that came ashore over Los Angeles three days ago. The combination will result in a blizzard on the East Coast. Timely coordination of the various ingredients for the Southwest floods and the East Coast blizzard should leave no doubt that these extreme weather events are not random. Theatmosphere has a preciseagenda for maintaining Earth's heat balance.

The tiny cyclone that entered the country over Los Angeles is now in Georgia.It has dropped about an inch of rain as it moved straight across the south. Its wind speeds haveactually weakened. Cold air in the upper atmosphere, centered in Illinois, is closing in on it. Cold air causes cyclonic spin.

The West Coast jet stream,directed north by the polar front turns clockwise in Canada then acceleratespulling cold air south. The cold air begins spinning cyclonically with a center in Indiana. The small cyclone moving into the Atlantic Ocean from South Carolinacannot be seen in the wind field. Clouds are too dense to compute cloud motion winds.

The small cyclone is over the Delmarva peninsula. The cold cyclone is centered in Kentucky. The combination is rapidly intensifying. This can be seen from the wide dry slot surrounding the combination. As air is forced into the cyclonic flow it converges, sinks, is compressed, warms and dries out. Outside of this strong cyclonic turning, air fans out or diverges. This pulls moist air up from below, resulting in heavy precipitation.

The two cyclones have merged into a strong nor'easter moving offshore east of Cape Cod. Strongwinds and heavy snow weredeliveredto the northeast corridor. The media and the public were amazed at this blizzard coming at the onset of winter. They would have been more amazed if they had known this storm began as a cold low near Hawaii and that the atmosphere manipulated cold air at high altitudes to createheavy rain and snowfall in California, Arizona and Utah; floods in Southern California; heavysnowfall in the Northeast and near record cold temperaturesin Mexico, on the Gulf Coast and in Florida.

Anthropogenic climate change is supposed to causeextreme weather events by warming Earth's surface with a blanket of carbon dioxide. The so-called expertsseem not to understand that cold air at high altitudes creates extreme weather events.

Appendix E. Caribbean Snow-

Experts claim that snowfall during the 2010-2011 winter was caused bywarmer oceans, warmer air and more water vapor. If this were true why did the atmosphere have to supplement these storms with water vapor sources 3000 miles away?

Asnowstorm over Great Britain receives water vapor from deep convection over South America and the Caribbean Sea.

The nor'easter hooks up with the deep convection from the Caribbean. The storm over GB is no longer on-line. No further deep convection occurred over the Caribbean, the Gulf of Mexico and the eastern Equatorial Pacific Ocean for the remainder of the winter.

Appendix F. Hawaiian Snow-

Every snow storm this winter formed under a cold low/trough and was supplemented by rivers of water vapor from deep convection near Hawaii. Snowstorms of January 24-28 and February 1-3 are examples:

January 24-28, 2011-

Deep convection southeast of Hawaii lifts moisture that becomes an atmospheric river passing over Mexico.

The deep convection begins under divergent winds east of a cold trough and generates a subtropical jet stream segment moving toward Mexico.

A branch of the atmospheric river moves across Mexico and links up over Louisiana with a developing snow storm. There is little or no deep convection over the equatorial East Pacific, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea and West Atlantic.

The snow storm linked to Hawaiian moisture is developing over the Gulf States. A massive cold air mass is moving rapidly south. This tiny cyclone is forming in the divergent winds ahead of the cold low. Wind charts from the National Center for Environmental Prediction will show the relationship between upper atmosphere and surface development.

Wind map for 0700 EST Jan. 25, 2011 at about 20,000 feet.Red dotted lines are temperature lines. Cold air plunging south from a ridge over the West Coast has moveda cold pocket to Oklahoma. Cyclonic spinaround the cold center creates diverging winds and strong upward vertical motion in advance of the cold trough.

Surface Wind Map for 0700, 25 January 2011-Atiny surface cycloneis developing beneath upper levl diverging winds over Louisiana. Upper level cold air, now in Oklahoma,will turn it into a bomb.

A break in the upper level Hawaiian river results in the storm extending its cold front into the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea for additional moisture.

Cold air aloft is nearly vertical with the surface storm creating a bomb (rapid wind speed increase). The Hawaiian river links up with the storm's cold front again. Hawaiian snow falling from a nor'easter paralyzed the northeast coast. A maximum 12 inch snowfall was predicted. New York was surprised by 19 inches and Philadelphia by 17 inches. Presumably the computer models did not account for Hawaiian moisture.

Hawaiian snow is falling over Newfoundland and Labrador. The Nor'easter continues to receive moisture from Hawaii in a broad atmospheric river. The atmosphere reached beyond the La Nina affected waters of the equatorial East Pacific all the way to Hawaiian waters to supplement a mainland snowstorm. Ostensibly this was necessary since the equatorial East Pacific, West Atlantic, Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico were too dry to provide sufficient moisture for this snowstorm.

February 1-4, 2011-

The last cold front for the next three weeks exits the Hawaiian Island chain. It extends north all the way to Alaska. It's southern end displaced the deep convection center that fueled the previous snow storm. This is a warm spot west of cooler La Nina waters.

Strong thermal winds push Hawaiian moisture north to Alaska. Again the jet stream takes a steep northerly trajectory over a West coast ridge. Cold air plunges into the Midwest. A new subtropical jet stream segment forms in the divergent winds east of the front. It moves Hawaiian moisture east over Mexico.

Deep convection raised south of Hawaii flows eastward in a water vapor river across Mexico.

The water vapor river moves across Mexico to a front extending south of New Orleans. Notice that the equatorial East Pacific, the equatorial Atlantic, the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico are all dry. There is no deep convection anywhere in the region. This must be why the atmosphere had to reach out to Hawaii for moisture to power this storm.

Surface Wind Map for 0700, 01 February 2011-A weak surface cyclone is over TX/LA/AR.

500-mb (20,000 ft.) Wind Map for the same time-A massive cold air mass, with cyclonic winds aloft over anticyclonic winds at the surface, is plunging south. Divergent winds ahead of this trough create strong upward vertical motion and will intensify the surface cyclone over TX/LA/AR.

The cold low together with a water vapor river fuels a powerful storm that dropped up to 2 feet of Hawaiian snow from Dallas, TX to Boston, MA. National Weather Service numerical weather prediction models were very accurate in forecasting the amount and location of snowfall across the entire 2000 mile snowfall swath. Presumably, Hawaiian moisture was included in the models for this storm.

Appendix G. Hawaiian Tornadoes-

A record for total number of April tornadoes in the U.S. was set in 2011. Water vapor rivers from Hawaiian waters were a significant factor. Ice crystals falling from water vapor rivers acted as condensation nuclei causing precipitating clouds to reach higher altitudes. Strongly diverging winds in advance of cold outbreaks triggered massive updrafts. The combination increased precipitation efficiency beyond normal frontal precipitation. Supercell thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, hail, tornadoes, lightning, and powerful downdrafts caused extensive damage. Loss of life, injuries and property damage were held to a minimum by timely warnings from the Storm Prediction Center of the National Weather Service.

Evidence suggests that processes increasing precipitation efficiency were not random. Water vapor rivers that formed from deep convection, over the Polar front and on the periphery of cold-core lows near Hawaii, rendezvoused unerringly with cyclones and fronts developing separately nearly 4000 miles away. Water vapor and clouds at altitude took several days to link up with precipitating systems over the Continental U.S. Cold-core lows appeared over Hawaiian waters just in time to move massive amounts of warm air and water vapor from the surface to high altitudes. Warm air arriving in colder environs at altitude created subtropical westerly jet stream winds that transported water vapor to the precise locations required to increase precipitation efficiency. These processes, revealed by NOAA/NASA Geosynchronous Satellite imagery, wind vectors computed by McIdas from cloud motions and National Weather Service maps, are a powerful example of the atmosphere's thermostatic control capability.

Examples:

Tornadoes, hail and strong surface winds, associated with a cold air outbreak and water vapor rivers from Hawaii occurred on April 5, 2011.

Two cold lows formed southwest and northeast of Hawaii at altitudes above three miles.

Both cold lows pulled up large amounts of warm air and water vapor. The warm air contrasted with cooler air to the north created subtropical jet streams extending from each cold low all the way to the Continental U.S.

A cold air outbreak centered in Colorado extends south into Arizona and New Mexico. Surface temperatures in the teens were recorded overnight in Wyoming and Colorado. A surface cyclone is deepening rapidly over Michigan. Two water vapor rivers deliver moisture from Hawaii to the storm. This contributes to unusually high cloud tops from Kansas to Michigan.

The water vapor river emanates from the two cold lows in the Pacific.

The surface cyclone and front receive strong support from diverging winds in advance of a deepening upper air trough. This trough came ashore over the West Coast two days ago.

The Hawaiian water vapor river remains attached at the base of the front.

The National Weather Service, Storm Prediction Center recorded 68 tornadoes, 91 hail events and 1325 high wind events from the upper level cold outbreak supplemented with moisture from Hawaii.

Tornado events from April 14 through April 16, 2011-

One of the deadliest tornado outbreaks in U.S. history occurred from April 14 through April 16, 2011. The tornadoes formed in advance of a cold air outbreak that moved across the country in 3 days. More than 300 confirmed tornadoes were reported across 16 states. Water vapor rivers from Hawaii were influential in this system's development.

A water vapor river extends from Hawaii to a cold low developing over Colorado. A dry line is evidence that the cyclone is intensifying. A ragged water vapor river is breaking away from deep convection southeast of Hawaii.

A cold low has formed in Kansas over a cold outbreak. Hail, heavy rain, lightning and tornadoes prevail where cloud tops are highest. The western water vapor river has broken away from the storm while another water vapor river is plugged in on the east side of the storm. High altitude Hawaiian water vapor intensifies the storm by injecting ice crystal condensation nuclei near cloud tops.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 38 tornados, 155 hail and 145 high wind reports from the morning of April 14, to the morning of April 15, 2011.

Strong wind divergence in advance of this cold low accounts for an increase in tornado and hail reports. High cloud tops are concentrated over Mississippi and Alabama. The dry line has expanded indicating stronger convergence in intensifying cyclonic flow. Sinking air punches a hole in the center of the cold low. There is abundant low level moisture flowing in from the Gulf of Mexico to sustain a storm. Links to Hawaiian water vapor rivers are no longer needed and have been terminated. Note the water vapor rivers were first severed over the Pacific Ocean. Coordination of water vapor, first from the Pacific, and later from the Gulf of Mexico is more evidence of the atmosphere's thermostatic control.

A strong cold outbreak cyclone, centered over Missouri, causes the polar front jet stream to turn abruptly to the north and west. As centripetal acceleration relaxes away from the cold center, jet stream winds fan out resulting in divergence and strong upward vertical motion creating the comma shaped cloud shield.

A surface front between warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and the cold air mass creates a strong thermal wind causing the jet stream to accelerate producing divergent winds and strong updrafts over Mississippi and Alabama. Powerful upward vertical motion causes hail to fall. Falling hail cools the air column creating cyclonic spin and rotating supercells. Tornadoes form from the strong vertical component of cyclonic spin in the supercells. A clockwise spinning tornado is possible if the cold air is sufficiently heavy to create a micro-anticyclone near the surface.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 146 tornado, 189 hail and 152 high wind reports from the morning of April 15, to the morning of April 16, 2011.

North Carolina and Virginia are under maximum wind divergence and cloud top heights.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 139 tornado, 72 hail and 216 wind reports from the morning of April 16, to the morning of April 17, 2011.

The three day period from April 14 to April 17, 2011 was one of the deadliest tornado outbreaks on record. There were 323 tornado, 416 hail and 513 high wind reports recorded by the Storm Prediction Center. These vital reports are a testament to the heroism of volunteer weather observers specially trained by the National Weather Service.

The Deadliest Tornado Outbreak Since 1925 Occurred Between April 22, and April 28, 2011.

The Polar Front stretches across the Pacific Ocean from the Dateline to a cyclone in the Dakotas. A squall line, extending from Texas to Illinois, has formed in advance of the Polar Front. A weak water vapor river from Hawaii reinforces the Polar Front In California and Nevada. A southern water vapor river has been terminated in Mexico.

The squall line shows extremely high cloud tops in Oklahoma and Missouri indicating numerous supercell thunderstorms with tornadoes. One hour and 30 minutes after this image, a single tornado classified as EF4 (165 kts) destroyed suburbs of St Louis and damaged terminal buildings at Lambert International Airport. Some water vapor flow into the cyclone is from Hawaii. The other water vapor river was cut off approaching Mexico. Presumably the atmosphere determined that the storm will receive sufficient moisture from the Polar Front and the Gulf of Mexico to sustain heavy rainfall. An old squall line that produced 1 tornado, 65 hail and 56 wind reports the day before, moved east and is dissipating.

The squall line is over St. Louis. Supercell thunderstorms can be seen approaching from the southwest. The Polar front through Kansas and Colorado is dissipating. The boundary between cold and warm air has moved north into Wyoming.

The red dots are supercells. The supercell that spawned the tornado that struck Lambert Field, one hour from this image time, can be seen forming southwest of St. Louis.

Weak westerly winds over Arkansas become strong southwesterlies over Missouri. These diverging winds provided the updrafts that created the squall line in warm moist air over Oklahoma, Missouri and Illinois.

SPC Storm Reports for 04/22/11-29 tornado, 263 hail and 61 wind reports were recorded from the morning of April, 22 to the morning of April 23, 2011.

The southern branch of the Hawaiian water vapor river has hooked up over Missouri with the squall line that spawned extreme weather yesterday.

The Polar Front is bent back like a pretzel. This is because the temperature contrast across the Polar Front is strongest along the U.S. branch of the front. This causes the thermal wind jet stream to be stronger over the U.S. Supercells have popped up in the new Hawaiian water vapor link over Missouri. This substantiates the purpose of high altitude water vapor rivers as a source of ice crystal condensation nuclei to increase precipitation efficiency. Tornadoes are reported in Missouri, Illinois and Kentucky at this time.

Tornadoes, hail and high winds are reported along the Hawaiian water vapor river in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois and Kentucky.

The squall line is in warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and under diverging jet stream winds.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 13 tornado, 108 hail and 61 high wind reports from the morning of April 23, to the morning of April 24, 2011.

Water vapor rivers are weakening over the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific segment of the Polar Front is approaching California. An Alaska segment is ushering in a cold outbreak now reaching Salt Lake City. An intense thunderstorm complex is strengthening over Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri.

One day later, the water vapor river from Hawaii remains plugged into the developing storm. The Polar Front will soon plug in too. Presumably the storm is not yet receiving sufficient low level moisture from the Gulf of Mexico.

The SPC records 16 tornado, 161 hail and 55 high wind reports from April 24 to April 25.

Cyclogenesis occurred in the cold outbreak. The Polar Front is plugged into the new cyclone, now located in Kansas and Nebraska. The Polar Front passing north of Hawaii picks up water vapor from a cold low south of Hawaii. The combination is plugged into the developing storm.

The Midwest storm is powered by a cold air mass that can be seen extending south to the Texas panhandle. It receives moisture directly from Hawaii and the Gulf of Mexico. The Polar Front and thermal jet stream wrap around the cold center and move northwest to the Great Lakes and over Nova Scotia.

A thermal wind jet stream over a strong cold front extends from California to Louisiana where the jet stream accelerates around the cold air mass, northeast to the Great Lakes then to Nova Scotia. Horizontal wind divergence, where accelerating southwest winds separate from weaker west winds, results in strong upward vertical motions creating a high cloud shield, thunderstorms and tornadoes over the cold front. Water vapor from Hawaii and the Polar Front still fuels the storm.

Warm moist air flowing from the Caribbean Sea through the Gulf of Mexico should be sufficient to power the storm now.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 59 tornadoes, 107 hail and 309 high wind reports from the morning of April 25, to the morning of April 26, 2011.

Polar front water vapor is supplemented from the cold cyclone south of Hawaii. This water vapor river plugs into the cyclone in Texas.

Hawaiian water vapor is contributing to tornadoes, hail and strong surface windsover Texas and Arkansas at this time.

The polar front jet stream enters the country over Oregon. A weak northern branch is turned northeast by a cold outbreak cyclone centered in Colorado and Wyoming and a cold outbreak cyclone centered in Wisconsin. A much stronger southern branch curls under a new rapidly deepening cold outbreak cyclone in Oklahoma, accelerates and fans out over Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee and Kentucky. These divergent winds intensify the squall line and spawn supercells, tornadoes, hail and strong surface winds. Warm moist surface winds from the Gulf of Mexico preclude the need for a water vapor river linked into the squall line base.

The rapidly developing cold outbreak cyclone in Oklahoma increases upper wind divergence over the front. A surface cyclone develops under diverging winds over Missouri. Accordingly this squall line is the most powerful of the tornado outbreak sequence since the Lambert Field tornado on April 22, 2011.

The Storm Prediction Center records 126 tornado, 304 hail and 395 wind reports from April 26 to April 27.

The Perfect Storm Tornado Outbreak of April 27, 2011:

The polar front jet stream enters the country over Oregon. It is abruptly turned north in Arkansas and Missouri by a cold outbreak cyclone centered over South Dakota. Strongly divergent winds spawn a rapidly intensifying surface cyclone over Arkansas. East of this cyclone's influence, the jet stream fans out toward the southeast, east and northeast creating a squall line under strong wind divergence and upward vertical motion.

Tuscaloosa, Alabama was devastated by an EF4 tornado 25 minutes after this image was taken. A dry line through Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota identifies the cold outbreak cyclone centered over Minnesota. A dry line originating in Louisiana and Mississippi reveals a cold outbreak cyclone in Missouri and a rapidly intensifying surface cyclone centered in Kentucky. Energy from the northern cold cyclone powers the southern cold cyclone which in turn powers the surface cyclone and convection bands in the front. This rare and powerful energy cascade generates supercells in convection bands that produced nearly 300 tornadoes from Mississippi to Maine on this one day.

This wind field computed one hour before Tuscaloosa was devastated displays the wind systems responsible forthe incredibly powerful tornado outbreak. A cold outbreak cyclone centered over Minnesota pushescold air south into Missouri where another cold low has formedcausingjet stream winds to accelerate and fan out over a rapidly strengthening surface cyclone centered in Kentucky. This powerful energy cascade causes jet stream winds to fan out and accelerate, producing incredibly strong upper wind divergence and upward vertical motion over Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky. The surface cyclone pulls in warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico. Strong convection begins when this humid air rises in the coldfront. The rising motion is accelerated by heat of condensation and wind divergence creating heavy rainfall, hail, tornadoes and strong downdraft winds at the surface.

A cold air mass behind the Polar Front and thermal jet stream extended into Texas. A dry line caused by convergence of cyclonically turning winds merges into a series of intense convection bands as centripetal acceleration is relaxed. Orientation of the convection bands reveals strongly divergent wind directions. That divergence over the surface boundary between cold air and warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico creates the supercells within the convection bands. Supercells can be seen in the convection band over Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

The red spots are supercells. Three can be seen near Tuscaloosa. More are located in Tennessee and Kentucky. The southern extent of the cold outbreak into Texas is indicated by white low clouds.

Two hours after Tuscaloosa was devastated both cyclones converged over Wisconsin and moved east. Accelerating and diverging upper winds continued to spawn tornadoes throughout the night, from Mississippi into Maine.

The Storm Prediction Center recorded 292 tornado, 231 hail and 440 high wind reports during the 24 hour period from the morning of April 27 to the morning of April 28, 2011.

This extreme weather event was caused by a massive cold outbreak, which created two high altitude coldcyclones and a surface cyclone. Moisture came from the Gulf of Mexico. Global warming had no influence.
