Looks to me the folks at WeatherTrends360 are predicting that the hurricane goddesses are going to do a reprise of the 2012, 2011 or even the 2004 hurricane season -- which was a doozy!
Polar stratospheric clouds, also known as nacreous clouds (from nacre, or mother of pearl), are icy structures that form in the lower stratosphere (15 – 25 km) when temperatures drop to around -85 ºC (-121 ºF). They are best observed when the Sun is between 1 and 6 degrees below the horizon.
“High-altitude sunlight shining through tiny ice particles ~10µm across produce the characteristic bright iridescent colors by diffraction and interference. Once thought to be mere curiosities, some PSCs are now known to be associated with the destruction of ozone,” Dr. Tony Phillips of the SpaceWeather.com explains.
Truls Tiller photographed these over Tromsø city, Norway, on December 16, 2015:
Here is a photo of last night's sunset in Metairie. A few minutes before the dull orange hues were much more vivid, with a lot of pink and rose colored areas; but in the time it took me to get my camera ready, the colors faded. :^(
BTW, that's no UFO on the right, it's a street light.
Okay guys, the first one out the door is a vid I made of Post-Tropical Depression Patricia in New Orleans proper and Metairie, La. Same storm as Cat 5 Pacific Hurricane Patricia; she went right over Mexico and Texas!
Next is the latest installment of "2015 IS STRANGE" by YouTuber LAST MESSAGES.
And the last is a vid of a flat cloud with a curved lip (in addition to having a bow-front, or an arc front)
YouTubers ANGEL OF APOCALYPSE and LAST MESSAGES have embarked on a collaboration video to be titled "SIGNS OF THE END - 2015 THE YEAR IN REVIEW." Their trailer, just let out, is reposted below.
Two major Atlantic hurricanes during a strong El Niño: a first
Strong El Niño conditions currently exist in the Eastern Pacific, where ocean temperatures have warmed to 2.3°C above average in the region 5°N-5°S, 120°W-180°W (called the Niño 3.4 region). Major Atlantic hurricanes are uncommon when ocean temperatures get this warm in the Eastern Pacific, and 2015 is the first strong El Niño year to experience two major Atlantic hurricanes since El Niño records began in 1950. The other four years that had strong El Niño conditions during the peak August-September-October portion of hurricane season have had only one major hurricane each. Those years were 1972, 1982, 1987, and 1997. Joaquin is now the second strongest Atlantic hurricane observed during strong El Niño conditions, behind only Hurricane Debby of 1982, which had 135 mph winds.
Joaquin is an uncommon beast: a major hurricane that did not develop from an African tropical wave. These waves serve as the origin of about 85% of all Atlantic major hurricanes. According to TWC's Stu Ostro, Joaquin's origin can be traced, in part all the way back to a upper-level trough that came off the coast of the Carolinas on September 15 (animation here). This trough became a cold upper low northeast of the Leeward Islands, then warmed and transformed into a warm-cored tropical cyclone. These sorts of systems are usually too far north to have warm enough water temperatures to make it to major hurricane status, but with the waters of Joaquin's birth a record warm 30°C (86°F), this was not a problem for the storm.
So now we must add two major hurricanes (111 mph winds or stronger, i.e., categories 3, 4 or 5) during an El Niño event as part of the strangeness of 2015 and the clear and present danger of global warming. Gadzooks! How many major hurricanes would there have been if we had a La Niña or a La Nada instead???
This one by LAST MESSAGES from 7:03 to 7:43 includes footage of sprite (heat) lightning over New Orleans Sept. 6 (early morning hours on the night of the 5th?) at Bayou St John in Mid-City.
Don't choose to be blind to the signs. Earth will shake humanity off like fleas.
Description: a wicked show of heat lightning on the night of September 5th, 2015 from the Great Lawn opposite the Peristyle, City Park, Mid-City New Orleans, USA.
Look at the huge cloud in this video! There's a light sky space in the middle of it looking northwest, while the setting sun itself is in the west-northwest. A part of the vid may be included in LAST MESSAGES' next 2015 IS STRANGE installment.
Taken from Rouse's Supermarket parking lot in Mid-City New Orleans at sunset on June 20th.
As the sun continues to go down, it looks more and more like a large streak of smoke from Alaska, where there are many, many fires. http://akfireinfo.com/2015/06/21/fire-report-southwest-area/
Sunrise, July 1, 2015, from Claiborne and Napolean Avenues in New Orleans. Note at the beginning of the video the strange clouds above Claiborne to the East, they look like vertical streaks.
Bonus July 2: Sunrise rays peeking through holes in the clouds over the Claiborne Avenue neutral ground, note the "corrugations" in the clouds. Very strange.
Huge cloud mountain developing into a thunderstorm at Sunset, July 8, 2015. Taken from the Jeff Davis Parkway bridge at I-10, New Orleans, La. Note the normal clouds in front and off to the right hand side -- look how tiny they are!
This was taken June 13th at sunset. There appears to be smoke in the sky from the wildfires up in the Far North (Canada, Alaska, Siberia).
These were taken on June 14th in the middle of the afternoon in between rainstorms. The white clouds in the first few photos look like they are glowing from within!
Taken June 11th about 9 pm. This is a close-up of clouds in the northwest from South Jeff Davis Prkway at Xavier University, New Orleans, LA. Note the band of clear sky, which is still (faintly) lit up by the westering Sun.
These photos were taken on Monday, April 20th, 2015 from the public roof patio of the New Orleans Public Library.
The planes spraying these trails have made quite a mess out of what otherwise would be a cloudless blue sky. In the middle photo you can see one of the planes made a sharp right turn while spraying.
Contrails, you say? They are all chemtrails. Deal with it..
The wind picks up and some clouds glow with light as an advance line of thunderstorms rolls through New Orleans Downtown. The view out Canal Street from Basin reveals a greenish sky. Mid-City residents reported the sky turned green there!
Description: First & Second Video Clips -- "Platter" type cloud. Slideshow Clip -- The sky is getting brighter behind the "platter" cloud, like an aura. To the northwest of my house, there are ripple clouds there is an aerial "river" that looks like a stream of soot.
There was a strange light in the northern overcast sky in Mid-City, New Orleans, La. on the night of April 5th. Here's my slideshow and video presentation, posted on Youtube under my alter ego.
I'm starting this new blog and I'll be linking to videos on the strangeness of the climate and other events of 2015, including my own. Also I'll be adding pictures.
