All Arctic drainage is hitting Europe. Nothing happening in North America.
The warm and cold collision is forming one heck of a band of rain and snow.
I'm looking forward to one of those Olympics where you can't see anything on the ski hills.
ps taking a rest on blogging for a few days. or maybe not.
The American team has a trumpy little weasel, who is compulsive liar. Maybe it's not a player, maybe she doesn't exist at all. It's all a dream. But I didn't like that hockey game.
Reminds me of world cup soccer with players who made a big production of being wafted by another player. Oh, Momma Mia! Sprinkle a little magic water, and he runs off again. Is this good for the sport?
Anyway, I don't think the baby college girl made a big impact with her antics. The whole Canadian team looked like a bunch of old farts, entirely bamboozled by the American youngsters. Reminds me of trying to keep up with my grandson. Our only bright youngster is that fast fast girl. I think they weighted too much to experience.
ps what do I know about hockey?
This is actually the State of the Oceans - Feb 10, 2026. It tells us how we are going to be in the next few months. Heat transfer by the oceans is thousands of times greater than air. Think of a little fan in a water-cooled Artie data centre. Of course, the final stage of cooling is forced convection. With the Earth, most of our cooling is out of the poles.
Our biggest engine for the water portion is the Pacific Ocean. The Atlantic is a weeny side-show. Water is shipped around by convection in the ocean. The currents are driven by convection, not the air, which is the biggest weather-person myth. Our continents also move around by convection of the mantle, and not by Trump's Will.
There's nothing going on here. Our biggest influence is that warm blob in the South Pacific, but the effect is minor.
I like looking at the Gulf Stream, but that is just a little fun on the side. The UK keeps blaming the weather on the Jet Stream -- good for them!
We have had a little heating event in the West Pacific, starting the same as the huge 2024 heating event, but just a baby compared to that.
The more meaningful water temperatures show almost no effect. I always go with water temps since they even out little blips.
Just a little while ago, when that blip was rising, all the current in the W Pacific was reversing. For the monster heating event of 2024, we had a huge current disruption, and I wish I recorded it. Anyway, it will be seen one day when people start doing physics.
In summary, there is nothing stopping our major ice cycle from playing out to historic levels. We'll make the Little Ice Age look like a skating party. However, I still predict that the lip-flappers will continue to convince people that we are getting warmer. I find they are an 'unrestrained Trump' since they don't have to use charts any more. No chart can be found that agrees with them, unlike phoney viewer numbers for the trumpy sad half time show.
I think we are all allowed to make fun of musk. Does he care? The physics would indicate that he did this because the Starship can't fly with a load greater than a teddy bear. Too much bearing pressure.
He wants to get the attention off this because he is selling out spacex, combined very weirdly with face-planting robots. Everything is weird with him. I don't even think the starship could carry a boatload of robots.
ps this is also a fine act of desperation to combine rockets with Artie robots.
Trump wants the empty bridge for his company. He can sell 5 buck tickets "Come to the US, and go to jail free'. The batteries are also useless, since we are selling all our electricity to New York to stop people from dying in the cold.
We could start trading him frozen windmills, and iced-up solar cells, but he doesn't want them.
ps would he want a postal service?
ps this is great!
Mine would read "If you are upset that I'm dead, get over it. I did." Since my family wouldn't send it, we really need a web service -- "You're Dead"
All cold Arctic guns to Europe.
Looks like our interlude of 'default weather' is over. A big Arctic blob is coming down. Pacific air seems to be blocked.
One blob was fought off by a low Atlantic plume, like a Checkie headshot. But the Canadians are coming straight in, fast. Medal pieces will be flying all over the place.
We are getting pure white coming down on us, and taking pity on Europe by exporting weak whiskey.
All guns to starboard! Blow those fossil weenies out of the water!
Can't take the cold. That also sunk the Titanic. Lots of materials, including metal become extremely brittle in the cold.
They are stumped because they were perfectly good in the office. Another great medal disaster.
ps
Europe rolling out 'green metal'. Breaks in the wind. This headline is funny because it is the green agenda that falters the economy.
We are stagnant, but look at Happy Europe. That's moving as fast as a curling stone. It's going to hit that low plume, right over the Olympics.
That's the Beast from the East.
We get a nice break of default weather, and they can experience our lives for a while.
ps and natgas goes down. Also, skimming the headlines, clange seems stronger than ever. No need for charts.
My path through the public school system was, at least initially, quite uneventful. After spending time in Orangeville, my family returned to Toronto, where I attended senior public school for grades 7 and 8. At the time, I didn't consider myself particularly intellectual, and I suspect my teachers’ marks reflected that as I prepared for high school.
Back then, the Canadian school system utilized "streaming," a practice of separating "bright" students into special sections while directing others toward shop and technical training. Although this was later abolished for being discriminatory, the system worked in my favor. I was originally slated for the "normal" course, but my brother pushed me to enroll in advanced grade 9.
Even so, my academic "engine" wasn't firing on all cylinders yet. I entered high school as a short, scrawny "nerd" during a time when several schools merged, bringing a flood of new faces. The social landscape was a bit lopsided: while the boys were small, the girls seemed to have hit their growth spurts all at once, appearing "huge" and tall by comparison.
Seeking an extracurricular activity, I joined a mixed-gender judo class. I was remarkably unathletic—clumsy, with virtually no hand-eye coordination. Consequently, I became the class’s official "punching bag" or "ragdoll". I was frequently matched with larger girls who would effortlessly toss me across the mat.
While I never became a martial arts master, I did learn one invaluable skill: the complicated procedure of falling without getting hurt. By using my arms and shoulders to break the impact, I became an expert at hitting the ground safely—a skill that has saved me from many accidents well into my later years.
Socially, I was infatuated with these "big girls," but they only had eyes for the grade 12 football players. During a fundraiser "slave auction"—a practice that would be considered highly inappropriate today—I was "bought" by my grade 9 crush. I spent the day carrying her books, only to be totally ignored as she went about her business.
By grade 10, my brain finally "kicked in". My academic skills flourished, and I rose to the top of my class. I remained completely unathletic, embracing my identity as a total nerd by joining several clubs.
In the Latin Club, we hosted toga parties where I put my technical mind to use, rigging an automatic lighting system for a bowl of alcohol. I also worked backstage for school productions and served as a lab assistant in the physics and chemistry departments.
The 1950s-era labs were a treasure trove of substances that are now strictly banned. I took full advantage of the "weird stuff" in the back, creating tiny amounts of stage pyrotechnics and explosives. Between the lab, the Library Club, and the Outing Club—where I spent time camping with like-minded individuals—I had found my niche.
Despite the social atmosphere of high school, I was a "late bloomer". While I felt a social pressure to be interested in girls, I had very little actual desire to get involved with them beyond being fellow students or camping participants. By the time I reached grade 13—a standard in Ontario at the time—my focus had shifted entirely toward preparing for university, leaving the typical high school social preoccupations behind.
This thing got called out, but I bet there is a human for every robot. I find it hilarious for the US racists. They want to kill all non-whites, but inside every robot painted white, is a brown person.
All mundane office work has already been outsourced to the immigration countries. That will be taken over by central Artie, which will have non-whites inside them. Are they consulted 10% of the time? Doesn't matter, they can run 10 of them, and have a nice house in India.
Every trump-voter will soon be replaced. They can't vote to 'keep them out' like the UK. Doesn't matter!
Ha! Get rid of the paper work, and then rid of the doctors. Lawyers, as well. All those jobs that require memory and no thought. However, we are talking 80%, always room for 'supers'.
Plumbers, painters, etc. Will this destroy the world? No, it will be as gradual as any productivity improvement. There will always be Microsoft to screw everything up. The productivity curve will always be a near-flat straight line. No great touted 'miracle' has ever worked. Stupidity will always rule.
Anyway, this is fun. I'm looking forward to robots lowering me into the grave.
Ha, mushie already just uses humans in the machine to demo his great achievments.
All robots should be white.
ps I can't imagine any automated future world where you wouldn't design an Ottawa LRT at half the required load.
Nothing is going on. We are in our 'default weather' time, when everything depends on latitude. Except for that little bit over by Toronto. A spill may be starting way up north, but it seems slow. I don't really know.
This is amazing cold. You can see a sag in the upper western air, but I don't know the speed. We'll have to wait.
Europe has a good flow coming down. Might hit the end of the Olympics.
ps no comment
ps stupidity of the day goes to the people complaining about fossil fuel ads for the olympics. Ha, winter sports are totally dependent on fossil fuels. Can a solar cell power a ski lift? Refrigerate an ice rink? I find this amazing. Of course, these people threw out all nuclear in Europe.
No 40 below stuff for them. Looks average.
Our heating event is turning, but there still is some residual hitting us, and Europe.
Since we have no more Gulf heat, our weather depends on the Pacific plumes. I think we have a last one hitting us.
It is fighting an Arctic spill, so we have to see what happens.
For the first time in a while, the Arctic is going back to 'colder than the old normal'. That baseline is 'pre warming'.
There is the last Atlantic plume fighting a big flow from the Arctic. Lots of snow.
The Arctic now has that 'double barrel shotgun' clockwise spin. One outlet goes to Europe, and one to Canada. Both are pouring down on plumes.
In summary, we had our chance for warmth redemption, and it has been cruelly snatched away. Look to heavy winter weather.
ps OMG, the dog walk! Strong wind -30 wind chill.
ps Huntsville at -30C. This year or next, we'll have 70's weather at -30 for Toronto, and -40 up north. This is just for a standard 20 year cycle, we have no history for a major ice cycle. And to be smug, this was all predicted.
The fun of having Pacific air coming in, is that there is lots of snow.
The Arctic mechanism is listless.
THE BIG NEWS!
Remember yesterday when someone said there was a heating event, and no more cold fun? Ha! Fooled you once!
Somebody snipped off the bud of the heating event. Going down, total false labour pains. It was a damp squib.
It was such a perfect reversal yesterday, and the chart confirmed it. Now the reversal is shattered. I expect the temperature chart to continue going down. No fun for the warmies. They won't burn fire barrels on the street.
That's the way the cookie crumbles. I don't expect the ocean current to go back to warmness now, it never does. I'm very sorry if you cashed in your natgas tickets. I now expect the Pacific plumes to stop careening over the mountains, and leave things open for the Arctic spills.
The leftover plumes from the 'flash' heating event are still piling in. Expect lots of snow. Then we'll have fun with natgas, and the chance of the US running out.
The draw is huge, and straight down.
ps and natgas people are sipping pina coladas on the beach
ps I never expected such a weenie heat event. I was expecting it to be smaller than the last one. The big reversals used to be our El Nino events, then that stopped. Then we had a transverse event (N-S in the W. Pacific) I suspect no more heating events for 300 years.
ps Yeah, Canada in the Olympics - We Are Ice!
ps Come against us, you rotten Trump-Titanic
It has never been easier to create your memoir. Mine, can't be published while I'm alive. Perhaps, I'll get it done when I am dead.
On your Pixel 8 or higher, dictate the story to Google drive, with voice typing. It's really good now, and must download a bit of Artieness. I find very few errors.
Then go to Gemini 3, and just prompt 'proof and edit for publication' It's amazing in that it does all the tedious stuff like paragraphs and quotes, etc. The result is fantastic, and asks if you want it more or less humorous. I'm humorous enough for 10 people.
You can just close your eyes and dictate 'in the zone'. It's as good as typing for me. I remember 20 years ago trying to use voice typing, and you had to enunciate every word, and worry about punctuation. I may even use it for the blog. I started this a few days ago when my back went out. Ouch!
A hundred years from now, physics might be back in style, and it will be a big seller.
We had a glorious winter of no heat energy. So much fun with the US natgas. The warmies would predict warmer weather, and it would always get colder. Good thing nobody ever writes things down.
All this 20 below stuff has broken the spirits of top warmies, and they are now saying we'll be cold for months because of Aspect 5 of the Polar Vortex. Ha, they will be wrong again.
I'm totally certain we have a heating event that will break the winter. It's a question of whether it has enough energy to last the year, like 2023-4. That heating event was totally missed by the warmie weather people, and they will miss this one, because it doesn't fit into their pattern. All their patterns are dead.
This heat thing will waft tropical Pacific breezes over us. Snow will melt in March, planting peas in April. Will I get to the cottage early? Who knows.
We did not have a disaster sufficient to bust the warmie groupthink, and go back to the Scientific Method. I am sad for that, but I didn't really want a disaster. Perhaps, it will become a fashion statement to fire all the leftie intellectuals.
If this heating event is smaller than the last one, then we are following 'reverberation' pattern like the decline of the El Ninos. These are 'transverse' flow events. A declining series would mean we will go back to our major ice cycle soon.
I thought those Pacific plumes were getting a bit too frisky. They are responding to a mini heating event. This explains my tremendous confusion.
Lots of heat-discharge vortexes that are spinning out plumes, going right over Vancouver.
A heat event is a discharge of stored heat energy. The mechanics is complex, but it usually involves a reverse of current, and a concentration of heat in the upper surface. You can see the action here, but a major heat event usually has a planar-laminar flow. We don't know the final effect.
The last heating event was huge and this one wants to match it.
Just like the last one, this reversal is dumping heat down south, where it will be a hot water bottle for the world. If it has sufficient energy, it should break our cold spell, and we'll never see the excitement of the US running out of natgas. As well, the warmies should be able to bring back the washpost in some form or another.
Curses, foiled again!
ps a heating event will give us a nice Spring, perhaps a warm May. It's better than a groundhog.
ps warm air wanting to push out the cold means lots of snow. My new books is "Fifty Shades of the Polar Vortex".
