More Climate Change Collateral Damage: Hurricane Maria Takes Out Dominica // Published on Sep 18, 2017

Hello People of the World. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you have been lied to for years about the grave risks that we face.

Billions have been pissed away on Homeland Security and military equipment in the “Fight against Terror”, while abrupt climate change is ignored; even worse accelerated with global government fossil fuel subsidies of $5 TRILLION dollars every year.

Meanwhile, Terrorist Maria has just struck the island nation of Dominica, completely devastating it. Yet another nation (city, or region) lucking out in the climate casino. Collateral damage on our path to a world of hurt.

Six Storms Bracket North America: 3 hurricanes, a tropical storm, depression & a disturbance // Published on Sep 17, 2017

At this moment we have three hurricanes (Jose, Maria, and Otis), a tropical storm (Norma), a tropical depression (Lee) and a tropical disturbance (yet unnamed) surrounding North America.

I discuss the latest projections, and teach you the tools to track these storms yourself. Hurricane Jose is expected to curve northward off the US coast, while Hurricane Maria is likely to rapidly strengthen and bring pain to many Caribbean Islands hurt severely by Hurricane Irma.

Crisis in Capitalism and Cascading Climate Chaos

Posted on September 16, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Crisis in Capitalism & Cascading Climate Chaos // Published on Sep 15, 2017

I discuss how ongoing and cascading climate chaos is the root cause of our crisis in capitalism. The US is considered one of the richest and most powerful countries in the world, yet is being brought to its knees from repeated hits due to Superstorms made worse by climate change chaos.

It is not just climate change that threatens people. As technology rapidly advances, and more and more jobs are lost due to artificial intelligence and robotics, capitalism will be at risk of complete collapse. How do we address these growing risks and come out standing at the other side?

Always a favorite of Paul’s, back again for the upteenth time on Radio Ecoshock: Mind-bending Climate Strikes, Posted on September 13, 2017. As master host Alex Smith says:

‘Inhuman heat predicted by new science from Europe. Lead author Simone Russo explains 55 degree C (131 F) heat’ worldwide. ‘From Ottawa, climate scientist Paul Beckwith walks us through the forces behind record storms, fires, and floods. Record-breaking Harvey, followed by the largest hurricane ever seen in the Atlantic … West engulfed in fire, millions flooded out in Asia – who can keep up in a destabilized climate? We’re going to try this week on Radio Ecoshock. We start with … science from Italy about the incredible heat to come. Then our regular guest scientist Paul Beckwith paints the big picture missing in the media….’

Tornadoes Galore in Florida, spinning off Superstorm Irma

Posted on September 9, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Tornadoes Galore in Florida, spinning off Superstorm Irma // Published on Sep 9, 2017

I highly recommend you download the RadarScope app on your smartphone to track Hurricane Irma, and do your own real-time weather forecasting.

I explain in detail how Hurricane rain bands are formed, how the wind speed varies in the storm, and where there is a high probability of getting tornadoes generated. Irma has been spinning off many tornadoes, and the eye is still well offshore.

How You Can Track Superstorm Irma from Minute-to-Minute

Posted on September 8, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Track Superstorm Irma in Real-Time: Tutorial // Published on Sep 7, 2017

I teach you how to track Superstorm Irma (or any other storm) in real-time. Following Twitter Hashtags is the easiest way to get the very latest. I talk about factors increasing Irma’s strength, and those that could decrease it on the path to Florida. Also, how to access US & Euro track models, with the Euro being best.

The models are converging on the tip of Florida. I discuss storm surges, wave height, eye pressure and maximum wind locations.

The European Model Forecasts (ECMWF) track actual Irma path (red x’es) very well. The US Model Forecasts (GFS) is consistently too-far northward. Always check out both models.

Winds are highest in right-front quadrant of storms. For example, if Irma hit tip of Florida, with rotation winds 180 mph and forward speed 20 mph, the right side maximum is 180 + 20 = 200 mph; left side maximum is 180 – 20 = 160 mph.

Will Irma be a Superstorm Like Harvey? Two Video Tutorial

Posted on September 5, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Me, after I saw the latest forecast for Hurricane Irma

Will Irma be a Superstorm Like Harvey? Tutorial 1 of 2 // Published on Sep 4, 2017

The US and European Weather Models are both forecasting a strike on the US from Hurricane Irma. I teach you how to find important factors like ocean surface temperatures along the storm path, jet streams that can direct, block, slow, or speed up the hurricane, and thus let us find out how long the storm may stick around.

I also show you where to find real-time instantaneous expert views on the progression of Irma. Will Irma be more like Katrina, Sandy or Superstorm Harvey? How has climate change monkeyed with our Jet Streams???

Will Irma be a Superstorm Like Harvey? Tutorial 2 of 2 // Published on Sep 4, 2017

All eyes are on Hurricane Irma. Yet the x is a tropical disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico which is where Harvey originated.

Behind Irma (hidden by my head) is a tropical disturbance formed off Africa near where Irma formed. If either disturbance grows bigger it will be named Jose, next would be Katia (see below).

Sequentially named storms

Hurricane Irma (by my glasses) and Jet Stream pattern.

If the jet streams continue to sweep over Florida when Irma arrives she will not linger like Harvey but will move through like most hurricanes. If the jet streams move north, then watch out, even more.

Best place for instant expert updates on Irma is to go on Twitter (join if you aren’t on) and search for #Irma, selecting Top posts and also Last posts (also follow me @PaulHBeckwith and say hi:)

My cannonball attempt to create a storm surge or tsunami. Educating you on abrupt climate change is stressful and needs decent coping skills.

Science of Superstorms. After Harvey, What’s Next?

Posted on September 1, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Science of Superstorms. After Harvey, What’s Next? // Published on Sep 1, 2017

Why was Harvey a Superstorm: expected $ losses greater than Katrina & Sandy combined?I teach you about how the science of abrupt climate change is turbocharging storms.

Global warming has greatly increased ocean surface and deeper water temperatures, warmer air holds much more water vapour and latent heat, and storms are staying in place much longer due to broken jet streams. Blame the Arctic.

Horrendous Hurricane Harvey Tutorial A // Published on Aug 26, 2017

Welcome. Please sit down in front of your computer and join me in a harrowing journey into how horrendous Harvey is. I guide you through the many sources of data to examine the formation, path, landfall and projected future path of the storm.

Before

We look at wind speeds and pressures, rainfall totals and rates, ocean surface temperatures, storm surges and waves [dk: ABC coverage, here for summary and footage].

How Bad is That?

Stop the video frequently, and investigate the maps, plots, and info that I guide you to, so that you can be more informed on all storms.

Cockamanie Climate Change Claims

Posted on August 21, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Cockamanie Climate Change Claims: Removing CO2 from the Atmosphere & Oceans with Exponential Algae Growth // Published on Aug 18, 2017

Sunlight warms Earth’s surface. Heat radiates up and is trapped by greenhouse gases (GHGs). Human emissions increase GHGs increasing warming. Right!

Bizarre claims out there say otherwise, and I discuss how they are incorrect. They include “Chinese hoax”, cosmic rays, magnetosphere change, Grand Solar Minimum, polar shifts, Planet X (Nibaru), volcanoes, HAARP, chemtrails (deployed geoengineering), Fukushima Radiation, NTHE, …

Suck CO2 Out of Atmosphere & Oceans with ALGAE // Published on Aug 20, 2017

Gut-wrenching weather extremes are wreaking havoc on our societies, food and water supplies.

As landlubbers, we seldom think of 71% of Earth’s surface for climate restoration. The vast oceans are mostly barren away from coastlines due to lack of nutrients.

Get nutrients to the surface, either from 300 feet below or by adding them from cargo ships already plying the deep oceans. Algae will grow exponentially, cascading growth up the food chain, helping reduce GHGs and ocean acidification.

It’s Raining in Antarctica and In The Arctic (But Not in Spain)

Posted on August 16, 2017 by paulbeckwith

Arctic Sea Ice Thickness mid-August 2012 (year of record minimum extent)

It’s Raining in Antarctica & in the Arctic (but not in Spain) // Published on Aug 14, 2017

Jet Streams are so wavy in the Northern Hemisphere that in the last few years, wave crests have brought warm air and rainfall (above freezing temperatures) to the Arctic’s North Pole in the dead of winter, and wave troughs are crossing the equator.

Present Arctic Sea Ice Thickness (mid-August 2017)

Now it is the Southern Hemispheres turn. Slower, wavy, wide, space-filling Jet Streams are bringing warm air, and even rainfall to Antarctic coastlines in the dead of winter. Look for yourself, and be amazed and awakened.
