Off for a few days

 We are well into my final scenario of it getting colder and colder, while the warmies are saying it is getting warmer and warmer.  It is like an elastic band stretching.

In this scenario, they get more desperate and more violent.  So, once again, I am hiding.  When I find my courage again, I'll be back.  As long as I only have a few readers in the world, with my Cult of the Scientific Method, the ticktock killers will not move.

Also, I am cold and miserable with our Ontario weather, that's supposed to support windmills and solar panels - Ha!

Air turbulence continues to be 'magic'

 In the old days, anything that could not fall under the Scientific Method was considered 'magic'.  It could not be detected, reproduced, or have a mechanism found.  This is the state for all our weather situations.

When it was cold in the 70's, there was a lot of clear-air convection and turbulence.  Then we had our warming cycle, and the turbulence went away, along with the ozone hole.  Now, everything is back.

The 70's were a golden age of atmospheric physics measurements.  Then it all went away.  Now, we will continue to run into this, and it will all explained away.  Keep your seat belt on.

Arctic blobs dominate our future

 The Cult of the Scientific Method is good for longer-term forecasts.  If you like explanations, then go to the usual sources.

We have a mucky blob coming down.  If that warm air settles over the Gulf, then we have conditions for hurricane #3, because there is still a blob of very hot water in the Gulf.

Europe is interesting.  We have this huge Siberian blob coming down.

Look at that sucker!  There's no wind behind it, so we don't know the energy.  It is cutting through the African plume, and the Atlantic plumes await.  

ps.  the furnace that keeps us warm in the winter continues to turn down.

Meanwhile, our anxiety merchants are left to look at desert temperatures at the peak in the daytime.  That happens with stagnant pockets, and has no heat energy.  Good for the news.

For the deserts, it is fun to flip between the max and min temperatures.
