“What’s With All The Weird Weather?”
by Richard Mills
“In January 2018, something strange happened in the Sahara Desert: it snowed. The Algerian town of Ain Sefra, named the “Gateway to the Sahara”, reportedly received up to an inch, barely enough to get the average North American out of bed early to scrape the car, but for North Africans, the outlier snowfall would have been magical; it was only the third time in 40 years that the Sahara Desert, one of the hottest places on earth, has received snow. (the desert gets very cold at night but even if it dips below freezing, any precipitation that crystallizes to snow usually melts right away)
A year later, extreme heat and cold were experienced in Australia and Russia. Temperatures at Port Augusta, South Australia, shot up to 49 degrees Celsius, on the same day, Jan. 7, as the mercury plunged to -56 in parts of Russia. That’s numbingly cold, but not as bone-chilling as in January 2018, when a blast of -67 cold air hit Russia’s remote Yakuta region – low enough to freeze eyelashes.
Can these outlier weather events be explained by climate change? Global warming theory posits that higher temperatures are bringing more extreme weather and more frequent, high-intensity storms. Last summer in British Columbia, more of BC was burned by wildfires than any previous summer. Heat records were set in the United Kingdom, northern Siberia, the eastern two-thirds of the United States and southeastern Canada.
The hottest temperature ever measured, 51.3 degrees C, (124.34 degrees F) was in Ouargla, Algeria, in July 2018, shattering the previous record of 50.7C set in 1961 in Morocco. This summer has only just begun in the northern hemisphere, but already records are falling and residents are drooping from the relentless heat.
European scorcher: Few could have missed the headlines about the early-summer heat wave that blanketed most of Europe in June. According to the EU’s satellite agency, Copernicus Climate Change Service, last month was officially the hottest June ever recorded. The data showed that, while the average global temperature rose by just 0.1 degrees Celsius, compared to June 2016, the last record – in Europe, temperatures soared.
The heat wave on the continent meant temperatures of 2C above normal, but in France, Germany and Spain, the thermometer climbed to between 6 and 10 degrees higher than normal, in the last few days of the month.
Records were blasted through in France (45C), Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. In Spain, the 40+-degree temperatures set forests ablaze, burning at least 4,000 hectares. It reached 39 in Turin, Italy, 39 in Zarazoga, Spain, and 39 also in Avignon, France, a city normally known for its gentle Mediterranean climate.
The four-day heat wave was intense enough to kill seven people. It also led to flash floods, grounded planes, buckled train tracks, closed schools, initiated warnings over air quality, and triggered water restrictions that affected farmers and their crops – including widespread damage to grapes grown to make wine in southwestern France.
Meteorologists blamed the dangerously hot weather on a weakening of the jet stream, pushing super-heated air from Africa up to Europe. CBC reported that five of Europe’s hottest summers of the last 500 years happened in the 21st century, and quoted the World Meteorological Organization saying that the heat wave was “absolutely consistent” with the extreme weather linked to the impact of greenhouse gas emissions. Or was it? More on that below. Also remember, the heat wave of 2003 in Europe, which marked the hottest August on record, was many times worse than this past June – 35,000 people died!
But for now, let’s keep going on what has already been a wacky summer, weather-wise.”

Earth has shifted orbit, and so too, our moon, enough to cause MANY earth changes. The sun now rises and sets in the far north in summer, thousoands of miles north of it’s old limit, the tropic of cancer in central mexico. The moon now swings through dozens of degrees of latitude per MONTH instead of the old limit of 5 degrees above and below the ecliptic plane per YEAR. This causes massive weather changes along with dramatically increased tectonic activity, tsunami, volcanoes…etc. And it was ALL foretold in our Creator’s Word to the LETTER long ago… /v3/earthquakes/2018/2648755.html and /v3/prophecy/2014/2461772.html
