Given the weather events we've had so far this winter, is this the future of catastrophic climate change?



Weather Today – January 12th 2031


This is Andrea Campbell here on the Weather Channel with today’s top stories, and boy do we have a lot to talk about today in each region of the country.


Let’s start in the Northeast – Yesterday’s blizzard that hit the Northeast adds to the total of snowfall on the ground in New York City. In areas that haven’t been plowed such as Central Park, an estimated 14 feet of snow stands completely burying everything except trees and light posts. It all started with the surprise blizzard of August 26th which brought two feet of snowfall. Since that storm daytime highs have not went above 32 degrees allowing the snow from each subsequent storm to pile up. Convoys of city trucks dump the snow from street removal into the Atlantic 24/7.


Onto the Southeast, South Florida recorded its first ever subzero low temperature this morning. A low of -4*F was observed at Miami International. Overall, during the most recent cold snap, Miami International has recorded lows below 10*F for the past 3 nights. The beaches of South Florida have been empty since mid October due to uncomfortably cold temperatures.


Now, let’s head to the Midwest where there are many airport closures, but it’s not due to frozen precipitation, it’s extreme arctic cold which is causing mechanical failures in planes and also the vehicles that service them. Lows last night were -64*F at Minneapolis St. Paul International, -55*F at Chicago’s O’Hare, -47*F at Lambert St. Louis International, and -46*F also at Kansas City International. These airports will likely stay closed until temps can “warm” up at least into the -30’s overnight.


The next region with big weather news is the West Coast. The Pacific storm that struck Southern California left LA with a foot of snow, and San Diego with 18 inches. In LA, trying to clear the 405 of snowfall was a challenge after a 35-car pileup from the freezing rain that preceded the snowstorm. The snow will be sticking around for a while in Southern California with daytime highs this week only expected to be in the 10’s in LA and San Diego.


Stay tuned to the Weather Channel for more top stories up next…

Don't panic zoom zoom, it's nothing we can't fix with electric cars, high speed rail and enough income redistrubution to put most of us back to living in caves.

Ah, the world of the Younger-Dryas Event, while you in Europe and the USA are freezing your asses off, we in Lybia and Algeria are celbrating the return of the rains to the Sahara and the Near East! In a few generations the Cedars may return to Lebanon and the place may become a Garden along the banks of the Pithon River that flowes again out of Arabia like it did so many millenia ago. God is indeed Great.
