Crazy weather continues to make the headlines as records keep being broken affecting millions of lives. Let's take a look.
Australia's Mixed Bag of Weather
Australia seems to be one of the major focuses of Mother Nature's ire. Cyclone Yasi is barrelling towards Queensland, an area which is already soaked to the bone from extensive rains that flooded an area the size of France and Germany combined. Many area are recieving evacuation notices while others are being warned of more possible flooding and storm damage.
Yasi was upgraded to a Catagory 3 storm Monday morning and is expected to make Catagory 4 with wind gust of up to 162 mph (260 kph) by landfall. Cyclone Yasi could turn into the worst storm the "region has ever seen" and could dump as much as 3 feet of extra water in some communities already devistated by earlier flooding.

And that's only the half of it for weather weary Aussies. Sydney just broke a record for the longest and hottest heat wave. The suburbs have had more than seven days of temperatures above 35°C, and the city has experienced six days of temps over 30°C. In the past 150 years, the longest heat wave was five days and that was set back in 1998. See http://www.weatherzone.com.au/news/sydney-to-swelter-in-record-heatwave/16061
China's Wheat Destroying Drought
Beijing, China broke a record over the weekend for the longest period in 60 years of record keeping for no rain. Snows that normally would have fallen over the city have yet to be seen this year.
The northern part of the country has been under a severe drought situation for some time which is the worst in the past 40 years. Drought has decimated key provinces that grow wheat putting tremendous pressure on the world's supply. See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41323072/ns/weather/
As we've seen in past posts, such catastrophic climate changes could cause massive global tentions and skyrocketing food prices. The really bad news is there are a billion Chinese and if they lose a large portion of their food supply then they'll be buying up huge amounts of the world food supply, creating less food for much higher prices for the rest of us. And China has the money to do that at this point. Get ready to start breaking those piggy banks!
Incoming Solar Blast
A large Coronal Hole has opened up on the sun's surface which is spitting a stream of solar radiation into space. The location of the hole combined with the rotation of the sun is directing the solar wind Earth-ward.
Scientists say the solar wind should hit the Earth between February 2-4 causing polar magnetic storms, so those living in higher latitudes should catch glimpses of some pretty cool auroras dancing through the sky. See http://spaceweather.com/
The alarming thing for a watchman such as myself, is the potential for further heating of the planet's core. This is my own theory. I've never heard anyone else say it, but it just makes good common sense to me.
It is scientifically verified that the Earth's ozone layer is weakening, both by natural means and by man-made pollutants. Ok. If the ozone is weakening then more solar energy can poor into the magnetic poles and into the magnetic center of the planet, especially from solar storms such as is mentioned in this article. Thus, we're back to physics 101... added energy heats up the source which receives it.
It's my opinion that the surge in volcanic activity which we are seeing throughout the world is due to this inner heating of the planet. Kind of like water boiling out of a pan with a lid on it. Once the inner liquid of the Earth heats up so much, it comes out of the Earth's crust at the points of less resistance.
And remember, the sun is not the only source of energy that is hitting us. The Earth is beginning to move through the Galactic Plane and we are increasingly being bombarded by energy from the Galactic Center. It's estimated by those studying this phenomenal journey through the Galactic Plane that it takes approximately 7 years for the Earth to venture through it completely. That's a long time considering the effects we are already seeing to the planet!
Anyway, I'll keep trumpeting the alarm of climate change, global warming, solar activity, cosmic occurrances and UFO sightings until the spiritual ascension takes place.
Until then, keep building your spiritual ark!
