ps. whoops, they are still nattering about the last heat wave
Not enough heat energy to go around, so we have to share.
So Europe gets our hand-me-down heat, and we are getting pleasant weather for a while.
A nice mixture. Looks like Arctic blobs have stopped, but you never know with those tricky beasts.
ps bumper cherry crop this year. We have the whole family up, three pitter production.
This is the start of the fall of the US. Now, trumpy wants to control the central bank. That's always a good thing.
I'm up way past my bedtime to wait for the redeye from sanfran. Blah.
ps can't wait for a robotaxi to go all Starship.
The talk of Gander has got me going. Obviously, none of this will work, since the only way to make money is "Selling Stupid Stuff to Stupid People". All efforts on the internet go down this road.
I am proposing we crawl hat-in-hand to Googs, and have an Artie-assisted discussion group to rival the nasties, and be head-over-heels better than the old g+.
The main thing is to have 'sticky' identities, and automated moderators. The anonymous thing doesn't work for Canadian Values (cv).
The first discussion would be 'what the heck are cv?' You have to separate cv from the usual political posturing.
The arties would control the main cv branch, and throw other comments to garbage pits, which could still be viewed. I would want a 'critical thinking' blurb on every post. For example 'Alberta outta here', would have questions such as 'what would you do?', 'Is there an economy?' etc.
Having arties stops human moderators from going insane. I've never seen a moderated group last longer than a few months. Myself, I only have brains for this 2 hours a day. The arties could be trained to be better. Googs would love this!
Ha, never going to happen.
And I thought him and Carns were getting along so well.
Since it can't get any worse, throw out all the US tech domination. And start the dang greenhouse pharmaceutical program. What could happen?
ps and nobody can stop him now from totally destroying the US economy. We Canadians will make out like bandits.
ps we shall call the greenhouse effort "Pleasant Under Glass"
That would be so funny, and the end of mushie. I mean, they are supposed to have a short life, and create a fireball. That's the consequence of a low orbit, and now the solar flares are supposedly pushing them down, but I haven't heard of any falling.
So, this would be the first, or just a rock, whatever, who cares in this modern age?
ps after a few days, nobody has found the 'rock' that went through the house. Suspicious much?
I sent them a letter.
Hello real person, My blog Ontario Geofish is deliberately contentious, but I would like to be polite on Gander. I want a section on pure Scientific Method, with no myth, consensus, or 'feelings'. However, social media is dumpster fire because of anonymity and dog piles. The real controversy is why we are getting colder, which is of great importance to Canadians. I've been kicked off places like Mastodon, for showing the weather maps, but I do have a core following. Perhaps I shouldn't sign up?
We had 'Neighbours', but it's all ads now, and cleaning ladies. I wrote my famous 'Roof Physics' there. All of these things have problems. You have a 'wild west' with no real names, but then it gets infected. Googs+ was great, but nobody read it. You can have moderation, like mastodon, but these people become power-mad trumpies, and all discussion is dampened.
Every single discussion group I've been on, has descended to chaos. Is it me? Anyway, I like the blog format with my 3 readers. I can't imagine pushing the Scientific Method, when nobody understands it. It's sad.
I don't think life is happy for a moderator. So much junk. Could you throw garbage into a public 'junk pile'? Then you wouldn't have such responsibility. Two versions - Polite and Not Polite. Positive and Negative. Would people just want to read the bad stuff? Constructive and Destructive.
ps lots of nice subjects --
Grow everything under glass
Get rid of Imperialist Microsoft
What's the snow budget?
ps I have to forcibly shut down my brain on all the ideas for what I know will be a useless effort, like fighting clange. Time for a beer in the sun.
There is a good chance of no more Arctic blobs for the summer. They'll come back end of August. The lazy Pacific plumes just drift over.
It had to happen one day. Now, will be the summer of our discontent. You think our little 'Heatwave of Doom' was something? Get ready for the summer of my youth, the ultimate 'Proof of Clange'.
For those of you who are new to standard Canadian summers, note that the last 30 years was the anomaly, due to a very active Pacific Ocean. Now, we are in stagnant continental weather. That means horribly hot summers and ridiculous winters. The fun thing is that nobody will know what is happening because physics is outlawed by the lefties.
This shows our nice soup. Or, we made our bed and now have to lay in it.
Let's be hysterical! You're going down to Dizzyland? Bang, you're dead!
Just after our little heat wave has been declared 'absolute proof of clange', the Arctic air breaks through again.
The cold air is so sludgy that it is having a tough time.
This is funny. I finally decided to put on my reading glasses to look at this plot. My usual degree of effort in all this precludes me from finding them, and picking them up. However, I have noted that they actually block out the 'megacity' of the East Coast, and it is not a temperature thing. I think it's a recent thing, but I wouldn't know.
Very light air movement. The Arctic blobs have to stop soon, and then we'll be in for it.
ps so next time you are in a heat wave, just wait for the washpost to declare it proof of clange, and it will be cold the next day.
I'm so happy the washpost has risen to the occasion. All this heat is clange.
That timing speaks to a broader trend, connected to human-caused climate change, in which summerlike weather is creeping earlier into June and lingering deeper into September
Hot summer of the 70's is really last week in June, to the middle of August. During the peak of the warm cycle we had warmth in May to the end of October. I love how they just come up with things. I'm going to miss this complete distortion. That's why nobody reads anything any more.
Where will they be when the cold winter comes? Regardless, the snow costs will double, and our heating bills will zoom. It's all clange.
They should push that it is hotter because the nasty lefties eliminated all our nice SO2 and nox pollution from coal plants. That put out a nice fug that kept us cooler in summer. Without that, we are going to fry, a fine prelude to the clange to come.
We continue to live with changing definitions. There is no warmie way to define it is getting 'hotter'. They are using the city peaks on their corrupted chart, but even that is changing on them. They will have to find something new, like these very small and local heat waves.
ps and let's drink the coolaid and build windmills.
ps and as said before, we need to make money. Using the nato percent to develop mines for critical minerals is a brilliant idea. Push the lefties out of the way. Since trump hates us, we need to do the greenhouse thing for all drugs. That's big money.
The reason that they are sad is that if they don't use Artie, they will fail. Sad. General arts university was always summer camp. In the US, they use ivy league schools to perpetuate the elite. They all became climate scientists. Nobody wants to pay for that crap now.
We are talking about rot on top of rot. No difference. The future is in physics and the Scientific Method - Yeah! I've said that a million times. As we know from Splat Trump (the bombing) the Age of Influencers is over. Writing things is over, since nobody reads. Artie will be used as a tool for people who actually do things successfully. All that fine Toronto subway building is useless. No more bureaucrats.
However, the job market for Labour Inspectors is booming. They visit factories who can't find workers. That is probably over soon. All the factories will have no people.
I have hope that Artie will shatter the Great Stupidities that dominate our lives, but not quickly. 5 years from now, you will find everything exactly the same. Automation will continue to eat up the bottom jobs. Our general productivity will climb at the exact same rate as always, because stupidity is a great dampener.
General arts students will continue to drift in their 20's until they find something to do, other than baristas. Central Artie will go away, as we go to distributed Artie, which makes my pictures better. Mass tourism will die. Clange will just slink under the rock it came from.
Housing in Canada will finally stop being propped up and go the way of Japan. Remote work will die. All very slowly, like watching paint dry.
So, as usual, there are good things with the bad things. The doomers are always 100% wrong, so I have hope for a better tomorrow. At least for me. I'll have a 'do the shit' robot instead of young people.
Today is a fine example of stewing in our own juices. Toronto and the US East Coast were the hottest places on the planet.
It starts with having stagnant, clear air. In the 70's we had huge coal power plants to spread a fine funk over us. Not now.
This is the world max temp. Note our unique place in the world.
This is the min temp. Note that we are still the hottest. Massive urbanization holds the heat.
Can't wait for the doomer headline - Getting rid of coal plants makes us hotter!
No question we are heading to that seventies show, with trump and the housing price overhang. But let's have fun.
I got this for the cottage where I have drains that regularly clog. I went to half force and it sounded like a gun shot that got everybody screaming. It is an air gun for drains.
Now, I've used a lot of air guns in the old geophysics business. We got excellent images in Lake Ontario that showed how high the seismic hazard is here. All forgotten now. The air gun compresses air and blows it with a high-speed valve. It is an explosion.
Also, this would produce a neat air vortex for science class. Probably can blow out a candle at 50 feet. Get it before it is banned by lefties.
ps -- world's simplest potato cannon.
That's why I think those umpteen billion passwords came from every system in the world running MS. However, anybody running that crap never knows they've been hacked until somebody hits them in the head with a 2x4. The article says the big security guys saw 'hints' in everybody's systems. Ha.
So Mr Windows-fan, your system is running tickity-boo because the Chinese hackers are fixing it from the Russian hackers, or vicey versy. However, you are in a doomer story to beat all leftie doomer stories.
This is the world temperature anomaly plot. Had there actually been physics in global warming, we would expect it to be all red. But, it is mostly blue, with a few blobs of red. To be diplomatic, we shall call this a 'blip'. Any day now, the heat will come back. You've got to have faith, brother.
NA is a nice swirly, stagnant mess. More cold blobs fighting against having the Sun directly overhead. Toronto is lucky to be at the boundary of hot and cold, so it gets rain.
My tomatoes are magnificent, and the broccolis are trees. I got a cheap Chinese water timer so the water bill doesn't exceed the air conditioning bill. My soaker hose system is working great, and I'm going 4 hours at night.
You've got to get this, or you will be watered out of house and home.
ps we will get the 'summers of my youth' when the Arctic blobs weaken and don't reach Sont. Then we are talking endless days of infinite heat and no rain. The outskirts will declare watering bans.
Everything looks horribly dangerous in isolation. Cannabis cuts down on inflammation. That gives it two points on the killer scale.
Every food has something in it that can cause cancer, but eating some broccoli cancels all that. Moon dust was called deadly, but they found that city life is deadlier. NYC life has 4 story walk-ups, and makes you skinny, and live longer.
I'm only taking cannabis for severe muscle injury, flu, and covid. It stops the pain and clears you up. For general health, I find my Aronia Berry tea is better, a vital nutrient to the gut, brings clear thinking, and cuts inflamation.
If you are a crack and alcohol addict, like some people we won't mention, you'll live to 45. That's constantly soaking yourself in the worst poison that doesn't kill you instantly. If you are a heavy smoker, then 65. Living with a smoker is 70, along with heavy drinking. Overweight is 75. These are the major things, and all the doomer stories are phoney, designed only to make these guys money.
As well, heavy cannabis smokers go to the heavy smoker zone. You can enjoy everything in moderation, and live to your genetic limit. From family history, mine is maybe 85, but I have an older brother and sister who can test that 'death ceiling' for me. Then I'm good for whatever gets them at 105.
ps Geez, it's hot. I just got some zero alcohol Sapporo beer from Costco. That's a good substitute for my usual stuff, and allows me to walk straight.
I don't really see it, but the forecast has it coming down. You can see we in Toronto are in a puddle of heat that makes the news. Everybody else is cold. That's the trouble with no heat energy.
ps "The record for June 23rd is 33.3 set in 1923. And if we surpass 36.7C, it will be the warmest overall June day. That was set on June 28 in 1944, at 36.7C.” That's from a news story today. Those who are fans of my tidal gauge record will note that 1944 was a horrible cold dip that froze out Hilter in Russia.
ps. and companies continue to pour every cent they have into decarbonization.
ps and we know, Alberta deserves the snow
ps so a big static blob of hot weather is caused by a "heat dome" which is defined as a big static blob of hot weather. The media is the best.
I'm so happy this is all 'CBC Approved'. We can look at all the things happening in the oceans, and be happy this doesn't mean anything because the world temperature is still so high.
They don't mention the 'Original Catechism' of the carbon warming religion was that carbon produced an 'insulating blanket' that warmed the whole earth. There was no place in here for the temperatures going down, but now, everybody is fine with that.
This is a weird integration of all the temperatures, and it is showing the north warming season, as a double-humped camel.
This is the whole North Atlantic. Very cold right now, but enjoying the summer.
The ocean that controls the UK temperature is sinking rapidly.
The band in the Atlantic that generates hurricanes is doing the ostrich with bird flu. Anybody seen an Atlantic hurricane yet?
The Gulf of Maine is our best thermometer for North America. Why is it going down when we are so hot? It's because of exactly what I predicted. No ocean heat energy leaves us stewing in our own juices for a short 2 month summer. Even the cbc worries about this.
Finally, the most important band in the world is spiking up and down, but a far cry from the good old carbon warming days.
You can see that the source of heat for the world, the east Pacific, is getting the life squeezed out of it by the Great Double Pincer of Cold. We don't have any sat data for the last time this happened, so we can close our eyes and sleep as our temperature plane dives because the engines have conked out.
You can see the little puff of heat that is spiking the Nino band. Note that the Atlantic has become very cold.
If I was going to give the cbc the finger, it would be in the extrapolation of basic physics. No heat energy means we are going down, down, down. All cities should double their snow clearing budget.
ps whoops forgot the videos. I always show the ocean currents because they always show something in hindsight.
This is the North Atlantic, and the all-important Gulf Steam. This was tremendously cut back after 2016, but the warmies are using it as a doomer story now. "No Doom, No Zoom".
This is the weird Pacific current, and I have no idea what it means that it only goes for half the distance.
No Pacific air, and a constant stagnant battle between Arctic and Gulf air. When it is super hot at the cottage, like 30-40 years ago, all you can do is go out at night, down the Mosquito Path, and soak in the lake until you are a cold slab. Then try to fall asleep before you warm up. Good when I was young, not so great now.
ps. and another doomer story bites the dust.
'Forever chemicals' are nothing compared to the shit we breathe every day.
After dying from stagnant heat Wed, I am now freezing on the cottage deck. But, the Sun just peaked out and it is supposed to be hot. Such is our wonderful life. All temperatures are falling like a rock, and the cbc lefties are admitting it. I am stunned. They even looked at the ocean temps.
However, they have great language on how high it still is. It's like all engines stop on your plane, and the people enthuse about how high they still are. Are you kidding?
Physics shows that all our engines have stopped for heat energy. Even the drifted land temperature graph of nosa is dropping. Next month it will be -- Still dropping, but still higher than most.
ps waiting for a huge storm coming in from the west, on Sat aft. We'll go home after because it will be melting temperature again.
I'm being very polite today. All the engineers told him about physics, and he replied in his polite manner, so they politely went off to do Artie stuff. 10 times the money.
This is exciting. The North Pacific current is going again, but not giving us heat. It is diving early, and bringing down a tremendous amount of cold water to hit the Pacific Belt. That adds to the Antarctic water, for a pincer movement. Again, I take this as a mechanism for the Major Ice Cycle, rather than the standard decade cold cycle.
ps the funny mushie thing is that all the brights are being yelled out, leaving only the average types. This is now acting like one of my computer programs, where I fix and fix it, and it gets worse and worse. He can't even launch to blow up any more. The fact he is allowed to keep going means that trummy still loves him.
ps stagnant heat - warmie heaven is coming for our very short summer.
At the cottage yesterday, it was pure stagnant air. I remembered my youth. Without any cannabis, I was stoned on the deck looking at the all the leaves for any sign of fluttering. I went into an alternate state -- Is that a breeze? It was such an effort to get the hot air in and out of my lungs. And the water is still too cold.
