bouche Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 That's a crazy cool timelapse. The polar vortex that appeared last year and again this year is almost directly ripped right out of this book: The Coming Global Superstorm I read that in 2000 and it eerily describes this type of unusual winter weather as the beginning of even more unusual winter weather that eventually overtakes spring and summer. If you want to creep yourself out, read that book. There's some effect of the super cold air in the stratosphere snapping down through the polar regions and flowing south. It's a work of fiction but the authors claim it's based on good science. still creepy accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Interesting to note Mike, that book was co-written by someone (Whitely Streiber) who claims to have been abducted by aliens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm well aware of the authors' associations with aliens. Also, Art Bell....famous crackpot host of Coast to Coast AM completes the credibility package. The book though....describes this type of weather that persists, quite well.. Looking at how much snow can fall and paralyse a city in one day, imagine a full month of snowfall like that. Cities would be buried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edger Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 It is all pretty humbling to be reminded how vulnerable we& our infrastructure is to the power of nature/extreme weather. We haven't really had much exposure to that in this part of the world. I don't think you need to be probed by aliens to have an inkling we may just be in for a whole lot more of that.

AD Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 I think we excel at having infrastructure and people that can endure, however imperfectly, both 40 degree heat and -40 degree "heat." Perhaps you were talking about hurricanes or tsunamis or something like that, but cities/civilizations built in areas with 70-80 degree temperature swings season to season are nothing to sneeze at. And same goes for the people, though many of them complain too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hal Johnson Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Apparently it supposed to reach +14 on Monday and it's all going to melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edger Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 We are an adaptive and resilient species to be sure, but guess my point was sheer volume/intensity of any weather stops us in our tracks pretty quickly and we really haven't had much experience dealing with that in these parts.
