Update: 30SEP2024:
Inexplicable Flooding in the US from Hurricane Helene has cost many lives and devastated the lives of thousands of Citizens. It appears now Helene will be followed by Hurricane Kirk, building in the Gulf.
As previously discussed with Hurricane Katrina (and other massive storms), I believe we are in the midst of a "Weather War" designed to cripple our Infrastructure which deteriorated significantly under 0bama and Biden.
Katrina was a tropical storm, fed by "Chemtrails" created by ships in the Gulf blasting large chemical clouds into the storm, converting it from a minor tropical storm to a Cat 5 monster.
The same occurred with Hurricane Helene
and
may occur with Hurricane Kirk.
Notably,
Historic flooding is occurring globally, as reported by The Guardian/Reuters.
[Oddly, that's not being reported in the US Press]
-- Although Q did repeatedly warn:
"Watch the Water!" this past year.

Because of both increasingly unusual weather, coupled with bizarre patterns of the Moon [and Sun]
We are reposting this discussion of the Polar Reversal, which seems now to be accelerating at a fairly rapid rate. In essence, it appears we are headed for a new Equator.

In view of highly unusual weather, and
odd placement of the Sun and Moon. It appears
the Polar Reversal may now be in progress. If so,
we may have a new Equator, and radically
different weather - and Climate Change!

New Update [5 Feb 2019]
In a Forbes article today, geologist Trevor Nace advises us that the Magnetic North Pole has moved much more rapidly than in the past. We've discussed this in the past [see below]. The official location of the "... magnetic poles is determined by the World Magnetic Model, which is the basis for Navigation, Communications, GPS, etc., around the World."
Fifty years ago, the Magnetic North Pole meandered about 7 miles per year. Recently, it has moved at 34 miles per year, with estimates as high as 45 miles per year, -- North, towards Russia [some estimates put it well within Russian borders already].
 |
| Magnetic North Pole on the move |
Why the concern?
In earlier reporting, based on geologic historical records, the magnetic poles flipped only about six times; Nace, a geologist, ups this figure to "... 183 times in the past 83 million years." That's a major change in professional estimates - a hint of massive change in the near term.
Magnetic Pole movement affects the navigation calculations of NASA space travels and launches, Federal Aviation (FAA) air routes and directions given by Air Traffic Controllers, and, of course, GPS signals, which could guide you into a cornfield as you head for the local bar.
Now, the imminence of a total flip is academic [i.e., the pros have no clue]; the last official flip was 780,000 years ago, and, there are no geologists around today who witnessed it -- so they have no basis for a prediction.
Officially, based on fossil records, there appears to be no catastrophic damage as a result of such a flip, but, it would appear there were a few unpredictable consequences.
As it happens, melting glaciers have revealed an Ice Age which appeared virtually overnight, capturing a Mastodon intact, with a mouthful of un-swallowed grass.
Given that, there were few, if any warning
signs which would alert animal life that something dangerous was about to occur.
Among other issues, some folks have projected we're on the verge of another Ice Age, similar to what occurred in Europe between 1300 and the 1400s and in North America in the 18th and 19th Centuries, during which residents walked across the frozen East and Hudson Rivers into New York City.

We've had some input from informed scientists who are concerned that we are currently in a Magnetic Polar Reversal, which could explain the weather changes; the issue now is, at what speed is the Reversal taking place. If we are in the Mastodon situation [caught with a mouthful of grass and frozen in place], we're essentially screwed. If we have some warning, it may still come in a speedy fashion during which we can prepare.
This flip could explain what happened to ancient civilizations, to include the residents of Antarctica, whose structures and plant life are now becoming visible through our enhanced technology.
We'll update, as needed.

[Original post in 2014]
Now, much as we are willing to believe this is a plot by the energy companies to rob us again [even though natural gas prices have suddenly skyrocketed], it is not. And, oddly, this event is not a result of Global Warming [Al Gore has been mysteriously absent in the absence of any such evidence --
and we're now focusing on "Climate Change" (previously known as Global Warming)].
So, what's causing this weird weather.
Our meteorologists have seized on the Polar Vortex to explain this annoying phenomenon, and if you'll follow the bouncing Jet Stream in the illustration above, you'll note that it circles the upper portion of the globe with air currents generated by warm air rising and mixing with Arctic drafts, creating a counter-clockwise motion. The Jet Stream is then affected by cold air masses pushing down from the Arctic, and by moist, warm air masses pushing up from the tropics.

| Normal Polar Vortex [NOAA/Washington Post] |
Now, normally, the Polar Vortex is trapped inside a mini-Jet Stream tagged as the Polar Night Jet, and the effect is normal and seasonal.
 |
| Cold Air Tsunami? [WeatherBell.com] |
Occasionally, though, an atmospheric wave will break the Polar Night Jet fence, and we'll see a cold air mass escape and give us a rush of cold air.
In this case, it was more like a Tsunami -- and as you can see from this image, it pretty much covered all of North America.
[If you look carefully, you can see Mexico peeking out from under the southwest part of the wave.]
In the midst of this cold air scientific explanation, the Left Media immediately raised the specter of Global Warming, noting that "...humans dumped billions of tons of carbon dioxide into the the atmosphere...".

"Ergo, that causes Global Warming, which causes ice storms."
Now, there is some accuracy in that.
However, as we've noted in the past, for every pound of carbon dioxide humans pump into the atmosphere, Mother Nature pumps a trillion pounds with each of her volcanic eruptions.
Now, there is some accuracy in that.
However, as we've noted in the past, for every pound of carbon dioxide humans pump into the atmosphere, Mother Nature pumps a trillion pounds with each of her volcanic eruptions.
So, we'll ignore the Leftist rhetorical nonsense [although we do agree that humans should cut back on their pollution
-- particularly the Chinese, whose pollution is saturating our Pacific Northwest!].
To clarify, weather patterns are cyclical and vary every 20 - 50 years.
Climate generally refers to a static set of variable weather patterns which fall within an established range. And, weather patterns change for a variety of reasons; for example, after the European settlers arrived and displaced most of the Native American farmers, their land then became overgrown with trees and vegetation, and the resulting increase in oxygen lowered the temperature, which in turn, lowered the temperature range significantly. A few years ago, Iceland was blessed with a massive volcanic eruption, which followed eruptions by several other volcanoes, and Earth was enveloped in a blanket of dust -- and sulfuric acid mist.
But, we digress.
What else are we looking at to explain the shift in our Solar Vortex which is freezing our buns off.
We've discussed in the past a theory which encompasses both Global Warming AND [ta daa!] Climate Change -- but, unfortunately, it has little to do with politics, and everything to do with Geomagnetism, a real concept of which few are aware, much less conversant.
[If you went through a Military Boot Camp, you were taught to read a map, and learned that Magnetic North was different from True North; so you had to compensate a few degrees on your Army map to adjust for the direction in which the needle pointed to find "True North" on the map.]
So what!

So what!
Well, on a geological scale, the inner-core of the Earth is an irregular spinning blob of hot [think in terms of Sun-surface-hot] nickel-iron alloy, about two-thirds the size of our Moon.
That hard blob is surrounded by a spinning liquid blob about 1,400 miles thick, and this lies about 1,800 miles below the surface of the Earth.
The value of True North is essential only as a reference point on a map -- or a library globe.
But, the declination of the Globe with reference to the Sun is what gives us our weather patterns.
If the declination of the Globe [Earth] were to shift its exposure to the Sun by a few degrees, the Polar Ice Cap exposure to the Sun would increase, and melting it, causing large masses of Arctic air to shift -- in turn, affecting the Polar Vortex.
According to NASA, two relatively recent events did change it a bit; one was the 2004 Tsunami, and the other was the massive earthquake in Chile in 2016. The NASA scientists explained that
"... the key to the declination shift was the location of the quake, and the fact that the fault sliced through Earth at a steeper angle, making the Chile fault more effective in moving Earth's mass vertically and hence more effective in shutting Earth's figure axis."
Here's how far the Polar Vortex shifted in the first week of January 2014. Note the shift from near the North Pole to central Canada.
The shift is not permanent though, and the Vortex is receding, indicating the Earth's axis may be a bit wobbly, and the Poles are unstable and possibly shifting faster than we'd like.
The question that our geologists should be asking:
Are we in the process of another Polar Reversal?
Liquid nickel-iron around an irregular solid blob core
That hard blob is surrounded by a spinning liquid blob about 1,400 miles thick, and this lies about 1,800 miles below the surface of the Earth.
By analyzing seismic waves from earthquakes of magnitude 6 or larger that occurred over the past decade, the scientists identified 16 events with waves bouncing through the inner core multiple times.
[Notably, Panama recently suffered two 7.7 level earthquakes, followed by two at the 6+ level (Sep 2026)]
Seismic data revealed that this inner heart is approximately 600 kilometers across, about half the diameter of the full inner core. Understanding the core is essential because it generates Earth's magnetic field, which protects us from solar particles and radiation. Earth’s core, which is about 6,600 kilometers across, consists of a liquid outer core and a solid inner core.
As iron-rich fluid cools and crystallizes in the outer core, it forms a solid center, generating a magnetic field.
The exact origins and timing of the core's formation remain uncertain, but it plays a crucial role in Earth's history. The core's magnetic field has likely undergone numerous pole reversals over the planet's lifespan. Seismic data suggests the presence of a hidden heart in the innermost core, potentially a long-preserved remnant of the core's early formation.
The combination of all that spinning [Inner vs Outer Core] creates a magnetic field, and in turn, creates sort of a giant magnetic axis -- with a North Pole and a South Pole. But, because the core is irregular, the magnetic poles are not exactly opposite.
Another So What!
With all that subterranean activity and molten metal movement, periodically, there's a hiccup -- and presto-chango, the Poles reverse.
No one is sure how long this process takes, but our geologists have evidence that complete reversals have occurred no fewer than 20 times.
The intervals have ranged from as much as 50 million years, to as little as 100,000 years; the most recent reversal was 780,000 years ago -- so, theoretically, we have roughly another 200,000 years to go --
but, maybe not.
During our last Ice Age, about 41,000 years ago, we had a quickie, called the Laschamp Event, and they're still trying to figure that one out, along with its impact on our geomagnetic field -- and our climate.

In a little over 100 years, the
Magnetic North Pole has moved Northwest by about 1,000 miles. Up until
2000, that shift had been at roughly five miles per year. Recently, the
pace has advanced to about 25 miles per year, or one degree every five
years.
What they have been noticing is that over the last 150 years [that's a lot closer than 200,000 years], there has been a deterioration of 10-15% in Earth's geomagnetic intensity -- and the pace has been accelerating.
But, our official geologists advise that the
"...rate of decrease and the current strength are within the normal range of variation."
We're not sure what they regard as "normal".
As the little boy says, while pointing at a tree, at the end of a Bones episode:
Well, I'm no geologist, but, I did stay at a Holiday Inn once, and I have been recognized as a Professional Smart Guy by the CIA, the State Department Bureau of Intelligence & Research, the Senate Sub-Committee on Intelligence, and DOD, so here's my theory based on reading a bunch of books and science stuff.

But, the declination of the Globe with reference to the Sun is what gives us our weather patterns.

| If the Poles shift, would the Equator also shift? |
The result is that the Polar Ice Cap
seems to have tilted slightly towards the Sun and has been melting for a number of
years - which partially explains Global Warming/Climate Change.
That would then raise the water temperature, altering oceanic and weather patterns originating from the North
Pole.
[It might also explain the melting of the ice covering Antarctica.]
Thus explaining our odd weather in the last 10 years [massive tornadoes,
mega-hurricanes, warm winters, brutal summers, droughts,
etc.], and, plunging temperatures causing cold air masses to flow across half the Earth.
Has the declination of the Earth changed?

Or, are we measuring this process in terms of months -- and would that be why our government has been building underground facilities and highways?
Possibly to manage affairs if our surface becomes ice covered -- like Antarctica?
