TxGal, don't worry about the PM...gardening is more important. I've been doing as much as I can to get things in the ground before our predicted M-T-W rains. Am planting LOTS of potatoes and will use the same space for late season root crops after the potatoes are all dug later in the summer.
I have tons of sheets and mattress pads for covering plants and I've decided to store them closer to the outdoor garden areas as I'm afraid we could get dips down into frost temps even into May and June this year.
The one rabbit we bred had her very first litter last night, and we found them dead. Nephew thinks they must have frozen. If only she'd waited one more day! I asked him today to put some stuff in her cage for her to burrow into and when he started to do that is when he discovered the poor little dead babies.
Will be weeding and planting all day tomorrow, too, so I can stay ahead of the weather. I can keep at if for hours because it's pretty much a sit-down job.
Thanks to everyone for posting all these important articles and links here. I think this thread is one of the most important ones on this whole forum.

Hey there, Martinhouse, so very sorry to hear about your baby bunnies. Hopefully you've got a buck and she'll rebreed soon. We always preferred our cows to drop their calves in April because the grass has begun coming in so good for the Mama cows, but the downside is the chance of a sudden freeze. Here ranchers often have their calves dropping in Feb or so, but to me that's more troublesome. Sometimes there just isn't anything we can do about it, except hope and pray.
I have my tomato plants ready to go into the garden, but for now they're on the front porch up against the house (south side). Every single time I plant them before tax day, we get a freeze, it's like a jinx for me. Also have my potatoes ready to go into their tubs, I may not do any in the ground this year, still haven't decided. Still picking up raised bed soil when we're near the garden center, but prices are up (what isn't!). I have turned two raised beds (big ones) into compost piles and bought composting worms for them...they're reproducing already which is great. Earthworms have a tough time here.
I just got in an order of strawberry plants (Chandler), which will be going into a raised bed after the storms pass. Also several more thornless blackberries, and one blueberry. The blueberries we have are doing great in big planters after we changed out their soil for straight peat moss a few years ago...read somewhere to do that and thought it was nuts, but it's the best thing we did for them. Lucked out and got one leafed out blueberry plant in a box at Aldi's, and it's doing great ($5.99!), We also got several thornless blackberry starter bushes and they'll go into planters after the storm, too.
We still have other vegetables to get into the raised beds...after the storms. Trying cukes, lettuces, carrots, beans, pea pods, watermelons, cantaloupes, pretty much anything I can find space for, still want to test out some loofas and birdhouse gourds. Thought about corn for chicken feed. Biggest problems we have are typical for the country. Raccoons, possums, skunks, mice, voles, etc. Our fruit trees have been flowering heavily, but we've had almost solid wind from the north/south for about two weeks. I'm not sure if any pollination will take...time will tell!

TxGal, I have two breeding sets of rabbits, a total of two bucks and four does. Had to get new bucks so it might be a few weeks before we breed them, especially to one of the does who seems very aggressive. I never bred my last set of rabbits and the lady I gave them to said they therefore wouldn't breed at all by the time she got them. I don't want to make that mistake again, thus the breeding this spring and/or summer when I'm really not set up for more rabbits yet. They will be for pet food and for barter items when the time comes that pet food might not be available at all any more.
My strawberries are in my greenhouse and this year they are LOADED with berries. I picked the first one a couple of days ago. They are mostly second year plants, so I'll have to make sure I get the new runner plants to all root and survive this year.
The lowest temps in my ten day forecast are for around 36 at the end of the week. I lost six tomatoes, Friday even though I covered them and I may not even bother to replace them.. I'll use the containers for the few leftover seed potatoes I've ended up with.
Sure hope we don't get any more surprise overnight lows, but is, after all, only April and such nights used to be normal all the time when I first moved here. The ups and downs of the temps were not normal then and I'm already finding them pretty challenging.

Solar Cycle 25 Progressing Similarly To The Historically Weak 24; America’s Spring Freeze; + Shiveluch Erupts To 32,000 Feet
April 11, 2022 Cap Allon
Solar Cycle 25 Progressing Similarly To The Historically Weak 24
We’re a year and a half into SC25 now, and although the cycle is slightly outperforming both its forerunner (SC24) as well the official projection made by the Solar Cycle Prediction Panel in 2019, things are still progressing within the expected ranges — the cycle is on course to be another historically weak one, markedly weaker than SC21, SC22 and SC23:
Solar Cycle 25 progression (green line) compared to 24, 23, 22 & 21 [solen.info]The upshot?
Global temperatures will likely continue their well-established correlation with solar activity — and decrease.
Solar cycle 25, at least so far, is offering minimal relief from the multidecadal drop-off in solar output that we’re experiencing — what we’re in is an extended period of low solar activity not seen since the Dalton Minimum (1795-1835).
And although anything can happen from here –there are even credible forecasts still calling for a record strong SC25– things appear to be progressing in line with those original Solar Cycle Prediction Panel projections from 2019. Back then, panel co-chair Lisa Upton, Ph.D., solar physicist with Space Systems Research Corp, announced: “We expect Solar Cycle 25 will be very similar to Cycle 24 … another weak cycle, preceded by a long, deep minimum.”
The following cycle (SC26) is expected, by many, to be even weaker than SC24 and SC25, perhaps even nonexistent — a reality that could spell disastrous news for humanity. Historical documentation reveals human civilizations expand and flourish during prolonged spells of warmth (aka Grand Solar Maximums–such as the Modern Maximum: ≈1920 to ≈2000); and, conversely, contract and collapse during extended cool downs (i.e. Little Ice Ages). The periods of Minoan, Roman and Medieval Warming are all evidence of this. Overlaying the peak of these past civilizations atop the GISP2 Ice Core data clearly illustrates the pattern:
The most successful human civilizations are built on the presumed constant and predictable climate that comes with Grand Solar Maximums; however, as the decades of reliable climate pass, a societies’ reliance on its ever-brittle infrastructure grows — and this is the problem: When that presumed constant is broken it’s broken fast, and the system can’t adapt quickly enough to cope with the change (aka the descending cold).
Grand Solar Minimums and the Fall of Empires: A Great Crash Looms - Electroverse
Below is a chart comparing Solar Cycle 25 to the very weak cycles from the turn of the 1900s (the Centennial Minimum):
Solar Cycle 24 & 25 compared to 16, 14, 13 & 12 [solen.info]Clear to see is just how lackluster these past two cycles are; in fact, they’re the weakest in more than two centuries:
[swpc.noaa.gov]The official forecast by the NOAA/NASA Solar Cycle 25 Prediction Panel (made in 2019, and visualized by the red line above) called for a weak cycle 25, peaking in mid-2025. And while things are currently tracking slightly ahead of schedule, NOAA don’t believe that the cycle will peak much higher than SC24; instead, they simply see the peak arriving earlier, in late-2024.
If this plays out it would mean an earlier start to Solar Cycle 26–a key cycle for reasons detailed above.
As always though, time will tell.
America’s Spring Freeze
A buckling jet stream is about to drop frigid Arctic air into much of North America this week.
Such conditions will counter the anomalous warmth enjoyed over the past few days in a setup serving as yet another example of the swing between extremes prevalent during times of historically low solar activity.
Cities such as Reno and Nevada are forecast highs in the 40s Tuesday after enjoying near 80F warmth late last week; but from Alaska to Alabama, the next 14 days will see potentially record-breaking low temperatures sweep the majority of the continent.
According to the latest GFS run, departures from the norm could be as great as -24C below, particularly in central regions:
Accompanying the unseasonable cold will be heavy late-season snow, particularly in Ontario, the Dakotas and Nebraska:
GFS Total Snowfall (inches) April 11 – April 27 [tropicaltidbits.com].Shiveluch Erupts To 32,000 Feet
Explosive activity is continuing at Russia’s highly active volcano Shiveluch.
The VAAC Anchorage warned yesterday, April 10, of a volcanic ash plume rising to an estimated 32,000 ft (9.8 km).
Volcanic eruptions are one of the key forcings driving Earth into its next bout of global cooling with their activity tied to low solar activity and the resulting influx of magma-penetrating Cosmic Rays. Very simply, particulates ejected to altitudes above approx. 32,000 ft (10 km) –into the stratosphere– often linger where they have a direct cooling effect on terrestrial temperatures below.
Shiveluch Stats
Stratovolcano: 3283 m / 10,771 ft
Kamchatka, Russia: 56.65°N / 161.36°E
Current status: ERUPTING (4 out of 5)
Shiveluch volcano is highly explosive. It has a recent eruptive history littered with VEI 4s and 5s, and is known for large pyroclastic flows. Shiveluch is one of Kamchatka’s largest and most active volcanoes.
Eruption list: 1739(?), 1800(?), 1854 (Plinian eruption), 1879-83, 1897-98, 1905, 1928-29, 1930, 1944-50, 1964 (sub-Plinian, large dome collapse and debris flow), 1980-81, 1984, 1985, 1986-88, 1988, 1989 1990-94, 1997, 1998, 1999, 1999-ongoing
For more see VolcanoDiscovery.com.
Seismic and Volcanic activity has been correlated to changes in our sun. The recent global uptick in earthquakes and volcanic eruptions is likely attributed to the drop-off in solar activity, coronal holes, a waning magnetosphere, and the influx of Cosmic Rays penetrating silica-rich magma.

PORTLAND LOGS ITS FIRST MEASURABLE APRIL SNOW
Most of the Portland metro region awoke Monday to a blanket of more than an inch of snow — the latest date the city has suffered wintry showers in at least 82 years.
It’s the first measurable April snow at the Portland International Airport [PDX] since records began in 1940, reports oregonlive.com: “In 82 years of record-keeping, PDX had never recorded more than a trace of snow in April. That ended today,” said the National Weather Service (NWS).
Portland received 1.6 inches of snow Monday morning, with the city’s higher elevations copping much more: Rocky Butte saw 3.5 inches; nearby Washougal, Washington logged 11 inches; while Hood River noted 9 inches.
Many residents were keen to document the unprecedented late-season snow covering their cars, backyards and gardens:

Run time is 2:20
The peak of the rare spring snow fell from about 3 to 7 AM Monday. The conditions brought about the closure Portland area schools as well the region’s main highway, and the storm also knocked out the power to at least 100,000 homes.

With the storm having now passed, the mercury is free to plunge close to the freezing mark, especially on the west side of the metro region where icy roads are forecast to impact the Tuesday morning commute.
The next weather system is expected Tuesday night into Wednesday, and although weaker it will still bring another chance of measurable snow to the valley floor, according to NWS meteorologist Colby Newman.
HISTORIC BLIZZARD TO PUMMEL THE NORTHERN U.S.
While the worst of it may be over for western states, swathes of the northern U.S. are under blizzard warnings this week with AccuWeather forecasters warning that the “storm of the century” could unfold across the region.
We’ve been tracking this storm’s potential for a while now and it looks set to deliver.
The system is on course to dump feet of record-breaking April snow to cities such as Bismarck and Grand Forks, ND — accumulations that are set to rival the record-setting, late-season snowstorm of 1966 (solar minimum of cycle 19) which dropped up to 2 feet of snow on these areas.
According to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Adam Douty, it will likely rank as “one of the worst storms in recent history.”
The combination of high winds and snow are expected to shut down roads and interstates across many areas, and snowdrifts may reach up to 20 feet. The monster storm is forecast to shift eastward from the Rockies into the center of the country Monday night into Tuesday. Meanwhile, another sharp southward dip in the jet stream will allow frigid Arctic air to funnel into the Southwest, the Rockies and northern Plains, setting the stage for a more robust volumes of snow as the week progresses.
On the northwest side of the storm, heavy accumulating snow will begin Monday night and continue through Thursday, especially for portions of the northern Plains into the Canadian Prairies. High terrain areas of the Rockies can expect to measure totals in the feet. And winds should be strong enough to produce blizzard conditions later on Tuesday through early Thursday.
The storm will bring snowfall to an expansive swath of North America, as visualized by the latest GFS run (shown below). Communities from Bismarck, ND, to Winnipeg, MB, and well into Ontario, could see up to 3 feet of snow. In Grand Forks, ND, the snowiest April ever was in 1970 when 17 inches of snow settled — this snowstorm alone could produce more than that.
GFS Total Snowfall (inches) April 12 – April 28 [tropicaltidbits.com].
GFS Total Snowfall (inches) April 12 – April 28 [tropicaltidbits.com].
This spells trouble for the region’s cattle ranchers.
Calving season is underway and significant snowfall threatens young cattle if they become buried for any extended amount of time. The infamous April blizzard of 1997 (solar minimum of cycle 22) killed an estimated 100,000 cattle in North Dakota alone.
Record cold is set to accompany the snow, and is forecast to persist through the second half of April, too:
GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C) April 12 – April 28 [tropicaltidbits.com].
In Bismarck, for example, AccuWeather is calling for lows of 21F overnight Wednesday, with the windchill making it feel like -3F.
We are in mid-April, right?
SUNSPOTS FADE
For all the Sun’s huffing and puffing in recent months, it appears that it may have run out of steam–at least temporarily.
Solar activity has fallen off a cliff this week. As of today, April 12, just one lowly sunspot is visible on the Earth-facing solar disc — the young, emerging ‘AR2988’, a small active region that poses little threat of solar flares:
[solarham.net]
Solar Cycle 25 is -so far- tracking its forerunner–the historically weak Solar Cycle 24.
If this trend continues then these will be the weakest pair of solar cycles for 200+ years (since The Dalton Minimum — 1795-1835). The upshot? Global temperatures are expected to continue their well-established correlation with solar activity, and decrease.

Record Late-Season Freeze Intensifies Across North America, Pushing Nat-Gas Prices To 13-Year Highs; + Europe’s Chilly March

Record Late-Season Freeze Intensifies Across North America…
As the jet stream plunges southwards, out-of-season cold is being funneled deep into the CONUS: Historic April blizzards are raging over the Dakotas, while potentially record-breaking chills are enveloping 85% of the North American continent.
Blizzard Warnings currently extend across parts of central and eastern North Dakota and northwestern South Dakota into eastern Montana; with Winter Storm Warnings in effect elsewhere, namely across the Rockies and into the Pacific Northwest.
Towns and cities across the continent are expected to see record-cold temperatures this week — hundreds of benchmarks are forecast to fall due to sheer size and intensity of descending polar air mass:
GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C) April 14 [tropicaltidbits.com].
Areas of the Pacific Northwest should brace for temperatures 24C below the norm for the time of year. Fox Weather was expecting a myriad of ‘record cold highs’ to tumble Tuesday–including those visualized below:
As the cold shifts eastwards throughout the week, hundreds of additional low temperature benchmarks are forecast to fall–from Alberta to Alabama.
The snow will also prove record-breaking — below are the projected totals for the next 7-days:
GFS Total Snowfall (inches) to April 20 [tropicaltidbits.com].
In fact, historic snowfall records have already been falling, including Portland registering its first measurable April snow in books dating back to 1940:

…Pushing Nat-Gas Prices To 13-Year Highs
The U.S. consumer price index (CPI), already at a 4-decade high, increased to 8.5% in March with surging food, energy and shelter costs accounting for much of the gain.
But on the bright side, official estimates see March as being the peak — it’s apparently back down from here:
Not exactly helping April’s inflation numbers, however, is the late-season cold currently engulfing the majority of the North America. U.S. natural gas futures climbed to a 13-year high on Tuesday on concerns that the freezing weather will boost heating demand.
U.S. futures have already soared 78% so far this year, and much higher increases in Europe are keeping demand for U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) near record highs as countries try to wean themselves off Russian gas–at least that’s the narrative.
However, while U.S. gas prices have soared 44% over the past month, European gas dropped about 23%. This is because Russia, despite the war and the rhetoric, is continuing to supply the continent with copious amounts of gas via pipeline and LNG vessels.
U.S. gas stockpiles are sitting 17% below the five-year average for the time of year. This combined with worries that April’s freeze will keep heating demand high enough to prevent utilities from injecting gas into storage explains why prices are on the rise.
Inflation figures are supposed to begin falling this month.
Personally though, I’m struggling to see how… grow your own.
Europe’s Chilly March
April has started exceptionally chilly across much of Europe, but March was also a cold one.
March 2022 in Italy came out cold and dry. The nation’s average temperature anomaly for the month was -1.17C below the multidecadal norm. It was coldest in the Adriatic regions, as visualized below:
[ISAC-CNR]
March in Portugal had an average temperature of 11.88C — some -0.4C below the norm.
While in neighboring Spain, an anomaly of -0.6C below the multidecadal average was registered last month, with the Canary Islands –a Spanish archipelago– averaging -1.3C below the norm.

Record Late-Season Freeze Intensifies Across North America, Pushing Nat-Gas Prices To 13-Year Highs; + Europe’s Chilly March

Record Late-Season Freeze Intensifies Across North America…
As the jet stream plunges southwards, out-of-season cold is being funneled deep into the CONUS: Historic April blizzards are raging over the Dakotas, while potentially record-breaking chills are enveloping 85% of the North American continent.
Blizzard Warnings currently extend across parts of central and eastern North Dakota and northwestern South Dakota into eastern Montana; with Winter Storm Warnings in effect elsewhere, namely across the Rockies and into the Pacific Northwest.
Towns and cities across the continent are expected to see record-cold temperatures this week — hundreds of benchmarks are forecast to fall due to sheer size and intensity of descending polar air mass:

As the cold shifts eastwards throughout the week, hundreds of additional low temperature benchmarks are forecast to fall–from Alberta to Alabama.
The snow will also prove record-breaking — below are the projected totals for the next 7-days:

Record Cold Hits Denver, Lake Tahoe, Seattle And Elsewhere; Minnesota’s “Epic” Waterfalls After Historic Winter Snow; + Ukraine’s Below-Average March
April 14, 2022 Cap Allon
Record Cold Hits Denver
Denver officially logged 10F (-12.2C) Wednesday morning, breaking the previous record low for April 13 by 5F (3.2C).
That’s unusual, reports denver.cbslocal.com. Most record temperatures are broken by 1 or 2 degrees. The fact the record was broken by 5 degrees is further proof how unusual it is to be so cold in mid-April, continues the article.
Also worth noting is the previous record low for April 13 was set just two years ago, in 2020 — our climate appears to be cooling.
https://electroverse.net/warming-arctic-drove-earth-into-the-little-ice-age/
Heavy snow accompanied the cold on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
Colorado’s higher elevations were measuring totals in the feet.
Snowmass, for example, logged 17 inches during a 24-hour period alone–just as its closing weekend approaches.
[CBS]
Lake Tahoe
South Lake Tahoe is another to set a new cold standard this week.
The mercury on Tuesday plunged to 7F (-13.9C) which is a reading 20F below the norm and one that set a new record for the date. That 7F also neared the April record-low for Tahoe City — the 5F (-15C) set more than 100 years ago, back in 1911 (during the Centennial Minimum).
More record cold and late-season snow is on the cards for the region into the weekend.

Seattle
Seattle saw temperatures hit 32F (0C) early Wednesday morning, making it the coldest April low for 14 years.
Western Washington remains in the grip of a winter chill, and with the freezing level so low, it doesn’t take much for snowflakes to fall and settle in the low lands.
Thursday and Friday are set to bring isolated icy showers, with the wintry conditions picking up in intensity again Saturday.
And Elsewhere
A blizzard warning, a winter storm warning, and a winter weather advisory are all still in effect in eastern Montana as the rare spring freeze continues to impact the state with drifts, strong winds and record cold temperatures.
“The entire state is cold,” writes ktvh.com Chief Meteorologist Curtis Grevenitz. Both Tuesday and Wednesday delivered a string of record cold-high and record cold-low temps, and the “unusual cold will continue into the weekend,” concludes Grevenitz.
Unusual cold has gripped much of the Western U.S. this week.
And looking ahead, April’s Arctic invasion is set to spread eastwards, further stoking fears of a slow start to U.S. planting.

Minnesota’s “Epic” Waterfalls After Historic Winter Snow
The whopping 150+ inches that fell on much of the Arrowhead region this winter are swelling North Shore waterfalls.
Spring snowmelt is expected to be “epic” in the coming weeks, “with record snowfalls in the forest,” according to Linda Jurek, executive director of Visit Cook County. With so much snowmelt creating rushing rivers, this season should be better than most, said Jurek.
[Brian Peterson]
More than 150 inches of snow fell in the Grand Marais area since October, according to NWS data, which surpasses all-time snowfall records kept by observers across the Arrowhead, said Joseph Moore, a meteorologist with the Weather Service.
This winter’s snow also bested Duluth’s record of 135 inches set in 1996 (solar minimum of cycle 22)–in weather books dating back to 1892; and also International Falls’ record of 125 inches set in 2009 (solar minimum of cycle 23)–with books extending back 115 years there, added Moore.
All that snow is improving drought conditions. Also, with a later-than-average snowmelt, the start of wildfire season has been pushed back, said Travis Verdegan, predictive services coordinator for the DNR: “We’re sitting good right now,” he said.
Ukraine’s Below-Average March
The Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center has managed to resume its work–despite the bombs raining down.
The agency has published its monthly bulletin for March 2022, revealing that it was a very cold month. Temperature anomalies generally held between -0.8C and -1.5C below the norm, with some areas in Donbass logging departures of -4C.
In related news, corn prices extended their gains toward the $8 a bushel mark this week as the war –and the cold– threatens to all but halt the Ukraine’s ability to ship and sow crops.
Food shortages are on the horizon, globally — there is little doubt about this; but we can all mitigate the impact of empty shelves and rationing by simply growing our own. Taking our family’s food security back from TPTB is a crucial step — they own us otherwise.

The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre).

Little Ice Age; “A Long Cold Winter” Forecast For Argentina As Food And Energy Shortages Mount; + U.S. Continues To Fell Cold Records
April 15, 2022 Cap Allon
Little Ice Age
Floods powerful enough to carry away cattle, winds strong enough to sink flotillas, and deep freezes and weeks-long snowstorms brutal enough to kill livestock and destroy crops — no, these aren’t the looming doomsday scenarios caused by increasing CO2 emissions (i.e. CAGW), they are in fact documented events during ‘The Little Ice Age’, a time in history of low solar activity and increased volcanic eruptions.
The LIA (proper) persisted from 1300 through 1860. Back then, or at least for a great chuck of that period, thermometers hadn’t been invented and ‘tornado’ hadn’t entered the lexicon. Weather was something one only experienced and didn’t measure, and many climate particulars of those miserable days have been lost to time.
Now, Western researchers have pulled those details into the present by scouring historical narratives, such as diaries and political treatises, and pinpointed specifically what extreme weather events took place, when and where.
Those details are part of a new geographic information system (GIS)-mapped database full of primary-source stories that illuminate daily particulars and larger trends of extreme weather during The Little Ice Age in England — and they can be found in more detail here in an article entitled, Western University Researchers First To Map Effects Of England’s ‘Little Ice Age’.
The takeaway: The causes of the Little Ice Age are not known for certain; however, climatologists contend it may have had its roots in reduced solar output, increased volcanic activity, or a shift in atmospheric high- and low-pressure circulation. Furthermore, a central lesson for the researchers was that people living through these times were forced to adapt to the changing conditions, rather than be duped unto thinking their actions and indeed sacrifices could prevent it.
“A lot of the response to climate change today seems to be, ‘well, how do we control this?’ And one of the interesting things I’m finding in this early research is that there was much less of an interest in controlling weather and much more of an acceptance of having to work with it and be flexible and adjust,” said literary historian Madeline Bassnett, a Western professor in the department of English and writing studies and director of the project.
Bassnett concluded: “I think there was a different conception then of human relationships with the weather and with the natural world more generally. Maybe we can learn from the past and see what we can integrate today in terms of our own thinking and grappling with our future.”
“Storms so fierce, they ‘hath not been seene, nor heard of in this age of the World.”
Translated to today: “Man’s CO2 emissions continue to intensify storm systems.”
“A Long Cold Winter” Forecast For Argentina As Food And Energy Shortages Mount
South America suffered a historically cold winter in 2021 which decimated crop yields, in particular Brazilian corn. And now this year is shaping up to be depressingly similar, only with the added misery of fuel shortages–which I see as being tied to the controlled demolition of civilization, from which ruins will come The Great Reset and the formation of global totalitarianism.
A fuel shortage is causing political turmoil and social unrest in Argentina, and is expected to result in food shortages as the South American nation’s grain transporters call for a strike in the face of sky-high fuel prices, reports oilprice.com.
A blow to Argentine grain exports would have sweeping consequences both at home and overseas, as the country is a major exporter on a global scale. According to local analysts, “the second quarter of the year is the time when the bulk of soybeans and corn are harvested.” Although crippling, it isn’t fuel shortages alone that are set to hamper harvesting efforts. Last year, this crucial season was plagued by historic freezes which decimated crops in not only Argentina but in Paraguay, Bolivia, Uruguay, and also in another key South American exporter, Brazil — and in recent weeks, cold waves have begun encroaching unusually far north, a scenario that looks set to intensify as the key harvest season draws closer, perhaps hinting at a repeat of 2021:
GFS Temperature Anomalies (C) April 14 – April 18 [tropicaltidbits.com].
Ironically, Argentina is one of the most gas-rich countries in the world, continues the oilprice.com report, but in spite of its vast natural gas reserves the government is facing the very real possibility that the natural resource will have to be rationed as the [orchestrated] global energy crisis intensifies.
Argentina has long dreamed of being a shale powerhouse thanks to the vast reserves in the massive Vaca Muerta shale play (world’s second shale gas reserves and world’s fourth shale oil reserves). But a cash-strapped economy has results in underdevelopment of the sector and an insufficient pipeline capacity to transport gas from remote Patagonia to urban and industrial areas, where it is increasingly desperately needed. As a result, not only has Argentina not become a major exporter of LNG, it hasn’t even been able to establish energy independence, instead relying on natural gas imports (mostly from the United States and Qatar). This has left Argentina competing with much larger economies for precious shipments of liquefied natural gas (LNG) on the international market right as winter sets in in the southern hemisphere and demand for energy expands.
The BNN Bloomberg report, entitled “War turns Argentina’s shale boom dream into a gas buying nightmare”, explains that in all likelihood Argentina will simply be unable to afford the amount of LNG it needs. The country already suffers from ongoing shortages of the hard currency used to pay for imports, and the skyrocketing prices of fuel are leaving Argentina between a rock and a hard place.
If its shale sector was developed to reach its full potential, Argentina could not only be energy independent, it could also be selling off excess LNG. However, there isn’t the political will to achieve this. It would require a huge investment, for one, and secondly, there’s the wide-held belief that all that gas would be better left in the ground in the face of ‘the climate crisis’. And that’s the game here. Energy is abundant on planet Earth, but TPTB simply don’t want us accessing it. Affordable energy loosens their controlling grip on the masses, and they have instigated this elaborate lie (CAGW) in order to justify this callous rationing.
“It’s going to be a tough winter ahead for fuel supplies with the way access to hard currency is in Argentina,” said Agustin Gerez, head of Argentine state energy company Ieasa. And in the bigger picture, it’s going to be a long cold winter for the world if solar activity continues its multi-cycle slump:

Hundreds of cold records are continuing to fall across North America as Arctic air expands southwards and eastwards:
GFS Temperature Anomalies (C) April 15 – April 20 [tropicaltidbits.com].
Seattle suffered its two coldest back-to-back April days in recorded history this week.
The NWS confirmed the feat, tweeting that in their 77 years of weather books, there have never been back-to-back days this cold. On Weds, the high in Seattle was 44F, then 44F on Thurs, too — April days had never previously reached a high of sub-45F .
The NWS added that it was the coldest April morning at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport since April 1, 2008 (solar minimum of cycle 23); and also that the last time freezing temperatures were recorded so late in the season at Sea-Tac was back on Apr 21, 1985 (solar minimum of cycle 21).
While in Wenatchee, WA “vaporized” its April snowfall record in one day this week, and also tied its coldest April temp.
Prior to this week, a half-inch was Wenatchee’s snowfall record for the month of April, but on Thursday alone, NWS meteorologists officially tallied 7-10 inches in town, with 16 inches settling just south of town.
The atmosphere remains ripe for a repeat performance, too, only in a different part of the Inland Northwest between Spokane and Pullman.
And in addition to the record-smashing snow, temperatures plummeted to benchmark-rivaling territory, too. Not since the April of 1981 has Pangborn Memorial Airport, in East Wenatchee, suffered such a low reading — thermometers struggled to a record-equaling 26F at the airfield on Wednesday.
The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre).

The atmosphere remains ripe for a repeat performance, too, only in a different part of the Inland Northwest between Spokane and Pullman.
And in addition to the record-smashing snow, temperatures plummeted to benchmark-rivaling territory, too. Not since the April of 1981 has Pangborn Memorial Airport, in East Wenatchee, suffered such a low reading — thermometers struggled to a record-equaling 26F at the airfield on Wednesday.
The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre). Prepare accordingly — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Antarctica Nears Low Temperature Record For April; Easter Felt Like Winter Across Much Of North America; South America’s Frigid March; + Threat Of X-Flares This Week

Antarctica Nears Low Temperature Record For April
Despite mainstream obfuscations and outright lies, Antarctica has been holding exceptionally cold over the past 12-or-so months — the continent actually suffered its coldest ‘coreless winter’ (April-Sept) in recorded history in 2021.
And now 2022 has started in a similarly frigid fashion: Antarctica logged its first sub -70C (-94F) of the season on April 3, at Vostok, but this has just been eclipsed by the French-Italian Antarctic Station Concordia which registered a low of -79.3C (-111F) on April 16 — and to put that reading into context, -79.3C is just 2.5C off the planet’s coldest April temperature ever recorded.
TPTB and their MSM lapdogs can disinform the compliant masses all they want, but it doesn’t change the facts.
Inconveniently for the AGW Party, ever since that entirely natural atmospheric river event of March 18 temperatures across Antarctica have been holding BELOW the 1979-2000 average, according to data from the Climate Change Institute at the University of Maine.
Today, on Monday, April 18, the anomaly stands at -2.6C:
In line with the persistent freeze of the past few years, the Antarctic ice sheet has been EXPANDING.
This recent uptick also continues the trend of growth witnessed over the past 4+ decades (the satellite era). Sea ice at the South Pole rebounded sharply in 2020 and 2021, to the levels of some 3-decades ago — this rebound is visualized in the chart below, as is the multidecadal expansion which stands at approximately 1% per decade.
Official data also reveals that East Antarctica, which covers two thirds of the South Pole, has cooled 2.8C over the past 40-odd years, with West Antarctica cooling 1.6C. It stands that only a tiny slither of Antarctica (the Antarctic Peninsula) has seen any warming –statistically insignificant warming, at that– but there are no prizes for guessing which region the MSM focuses on.

Frost fires have once again been lit across Western Europe, as they were last year, to protect the continent’s delicate fruit crops.
Easter Felt Like Winter Across Much Of North America
Swathes of both Canada and the United States suffered record low temperatures and rare April snowfall over the weekend.
Over the past 24-hours alone, cold records have been tumbling from Washington State to New England; from northern Texas to the Canadian Prairies. In fact, the Canadian Prairies just neared its all-time record-cold benchmark for mid-April — an exceptional -20C (-4F) was registered at Carman, with a similarly anomalous -13.7C (7.3F) noted in Winnipeg.
And below the border, a record -1F (-18.3C) in Idaho is one of the standouts, although hundreds of low temperature records have been slain across the states over the past few days, cold that is set to spill into the new week:

South America’s Frigid March
As discussed on Friday, South America suffered a historically cold winter of 2021. Record freeze after record freeze decimated crop yields, particularly Brazilian corn, and now this year is shaping up to be depressingly similar, too.
March 2022 in Uruguay was much colder than average.
Temperature anomalies ranged from -1C below the 1981-2010 average in the east, to -3C in the northwest.
[Inumet]
Likewise in Bolivia, temperatures held below normal in March, aided by a punishing cold front at the end of the month which smashed low temperature records across many Amazon regions, including key growing areas.
A reduction in South American grain exports would have sweeping consequences. The continent is a major exporter on a global scale and this time of year is crucial for the markets — according to analysts, “the second quarter of the year is the time when the bulk of soybeans and corn are harvested.”
During April, May and June last year, this key quarter was plagued by historic freezes which decimated crops in not only key exporters like Argentina and Brazil, but also in Paraguay, Bolivia, and Uruguay. The cold persisted throughout the entire season, too, and resulted in shortages and inflated prices across the continent.
Looking to this year’s key harvest window, farmer’s have been warned to brace for something similar, only with the added issues of 1) crippling energy shortages (see link below), and 2) spiraling fertilizer costs. Also unlike last year, a gap in the global grain supply created by South America won’t be as easily plugged by the global market. The U.S., for example, is off to a very slow start to its planting season, and we know about the delays and right-offs happening across The Ukraine–the breadbasket of Europe.
Little Ice Age; “A Long Cold Winter” Forecast For Argentina As Food And Energy Shortages Mount; + U.S. Continues To Fell Cold Records
Prior to this week, a half-inch was Wenatchee’s snowfall record for the month of April, but on Thursday alone, NWS meteorologists tallied 7-10 inches in town, with 16 inches settling just south of town.
Threat Of X-Flares This Week
While the sun’s historically low output is expected -by the majority of forecasts- to persist through Solar Cycle 25 (and beyond), the ramp-up to solar maxima can still be a highly active time.
There is currently a very active sunspot complex ‘AR2993-94’ turning around the limb of the sun:
The region has already unleashed an X1-flare, on April 17…
…but as Dr Tony Phillips of spaceweather.com contends, “[this] may be just the beginning”.
NASA’s STEREO-A spacecraft is monitoring another potentially large active region right behind it (shown below).
Stay tuned for more sunspots emerging over the sun’s northeastern limb later today or tomorrow, concludes Dr Phillips.
Why is this newsworthy?
Given our planet’s ever-waning magnetic field –due to its migrating magnetic poles, among other forcings– outbursts from the sun are having a greater and greater impact here on the ground. Field strength is the biggest threat to our modern tech-driven civilization. Earth’s magnetosphere protects us from bombardments of cosmic radiation. It stands that if a big enough plasma discharge were to occur –or if Earth had a weak enough shield– it would lead to a total failure of the global electrical grid.
Earth’s magnetic field is weaker than we’ve all realized.
In the year 2000 we knew the field had lost 10 percent of its strength since the 1800s.
Another 5 percent was lost by 2010.
Further accelerations occurred in recent years, 2015 and 2017, but we laymen were not privy to any additional loss data.
The sun’s ramp-up into Solar Cycle 25 occurring simultaneously with Earth’s drastically reducing magnetic field is the biggest threat we humans have faced in hundreds, potentially thousands of years, given how completely and utterly technologically-dependent we have all become.
I would be willing to bet that 90% of the western population would fail miserably at growing their own food, which in any prolonged disaster scenario would see them perish, or at best render them completely dependent on state rationing.
That destructive X9+ flaring event (that ‘killshot’) will come soon enough, and when it hits we’ll be on our own: No more grocery stores; no more pharmacies; and, God forbid, no more ‘how-tos’ on YouTube. This apocalyptic scenario has around a 50% chance of playing out by the peak of solar cycle SC25 (so by 2024/25). But the message is get prepared, not scared. This event, like a Grand Solar Minimum, is entirely survivable. It could even free us from the increasingly Totalitarian nightmare we’re all existing in: Their Central Bank Digital Currency can’t function without an electrical grid, and neither can their Identification apps/chips.
Head off-grid now. Grow your own food now. Because I’m willing to bet that your first few years will end in failure, as mine did, and the stress of trial and error during an actual disaster is far from desirable: Prior Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.

Are you sure about that?
This is really driving world events. The question in my mind is whether it's an "invisible hand" thing, and TPTB are merely reactionary, or are there plans in play that are meant to be made invisible to us. Given the machinations we keep uncovering in so many things, I lean heavily on the latter...

Is Bird Flu The Next ‘Scapegoat’ For The Collapse?; Record Cold Grips Canadian Prairies; + Manam Erupts To 45,000 Feet
April 19, 2022 Cap Allon
Is Bird Flu The Next ‘Scapegoat’ For The Collapse?
In recent months, TPTB have been warning of the next pandemic and have been stressing that in all likelihood it will be “much worse”–and when these elites tell us something we best pay heed because they have the power to shape reality.
The first cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) have been -we’re told to believe- confirmed in Pennsylvania in a flock of commercial layer chickens on a Lancaster County poultry farm. This marks the first confirmed case of HPAI in the state’s commercial poultry since an outbreak in 1983-1984, according to the USDA and the APHIS.
“While there is no risk to the public, and poultry and eggs are safe to eat if cooked properly, HPAI is highly infectious and can be fatal to domestic birds (chickens, ducks, geese, quail, pheasants, guinea fowl and turkeys),” reads a USDA statement.
As of April 15, 2022, 27 other U.S. states are currently experiencing positive cases of Avian Flu in commercial poultry, according to a recent agricensus.com report, but as of yet no human cases of the virus have been detected, at least not in the States.
Genetic analysis reveals that the virus is being spread by infected wild birds, with wild birds in Pennsylvania confirmed to be infected back in March. The CDC has called the outbreak “primarily an animal health issue,” adding that it “poses low risk to the public.” Still, a task force will carry out the response plan, which includes public education and outreach as well as minimizing risk factors though “strict biosecurity measures and continued surveillance, testing, and management”.
Trading has suffered because of the spread, as importers like China have blocked imports from many US states. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has also implemented measures to protect Canada’s poultry from outbreaks by restricting imports of live birds, bird products, and by-products from states affected by HPAI. However, if the outbreak is in the wild bird population then these efforts are likely in vain.
The upshot is, of course, shortages and skyrocketing prices of both poultry and eggs–and they claim inflation will start cooling off in April…? The average wholesale price of a dozen eggs cost less than $2 just four months ago. But according to data from the USDA, 12 eggs now costs $3, and that’s on the rise. Year-on-year, the average weekly price of large eggs is up 44%. While the price of wholesale poultry –which rose 4% in Feb alone– is forecast to rise 12% over the course of the year, in part because of the outbreak, but also because of crippling-high fuel prices and other supply chain issues, according to the USDA.
The outbreak, even if it doesn’t make the ‘leap’ to humans, is already aiding their Great Reset. The purchase of live poultry is now restricted or banned in many states which is hindering people’s ability to become self-sufficient.
EVERY global event is now advancing their shift to Totalitarianism.
Their controlled demolition of society is playing out, now.
Each disaster -from CAGW, to COVID, to the war, to now bloody bird flu- is, along with driving the collective mental health of society into the gutter, pricing everyday essentials out of the reach of ordinary folk. The aim? To break the masses, to have them on their knees themselves demanding for whatever solutions the globalists propagandize–no matter how intrusive or restrictive.
The masses can’t be trusted: They let their governments lock them inside their homes for a flu that didn’t pose a threat to 90+% of the population, and they also allowed criminally guilty, profiteering corporations to pump them full of untested drugs. According to official ONS data in the UK, COVID had an average age of death of 83 years which is older than the average life expectancy.
We must do all we can to combat their dystopian plans for the future of humanity — their Great Reset.
A great many good-numbered resistances must be formed.
We must build a secure future for our family, off-grid and growing our own.
I believe that EVERTHING is at stake here.
The minds of the masses are failing while the effrontery of TPTB is surging, with the latter feeding off the former; and to the point of why I setup Electroverse, both are manifesting in line with cosmologically-driven electrical shifts on our planet, such as the ongoing magnetic excursion and the ever-intensifying Grand Solar Minimum.

All of this is not a coincidence.
But although humanity seems in dire straits right now, this message from Jordan Peterson is important to remember:
Record Cold Grips Canadian Prairies
Record cold has been persisting across the Canadian Prairies as low solar activity continues to buckle the jet stream.
Hundreds of unprecedented low temperatures for the time of year are being reported this week, including the -21.9C (-7.4F) in Wasagaming, MB; the -19.5C (-3.1F) in Broadview, SK; the -18.9C (-2F) in Estevan, SK; the -18.5C (-1.3F) in Melita, MB; the -18.4C (-1.1F) at Cypress River, MB; the -18.2C (-0.8F) Weyburn, SK; and the -17.2C (1F) in Brandon, MB — to name just a handful.
North America’s spring freeze is forecast to persist today, Tuesday, April 19, too.
This is visualized by the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer tool (shown below) which is also suggesting that the world’s average temperature anomaly today will be 0C against the 1979-2000 base:

Manam Erupts To 45,000 Feet
On Monday, April 17, Papa New Guinea’s highly active Manam Volcano produced another stratospheric eruption, continuing its uptick which began in 2010.
A thick volcanic ash plume rising to at least 45,000 feet (13.7 km) was registered by the Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Darwin using satellite imagery:
Such a high-level eruption is noteworthy because particulates ejected to altitudes above 32,800 ft (10 km) –i.e. into the stratosphere– often linger where they have a direct cooling effect on the planet.
Volcanic eruptions are one of the key forcings driving Earth into its next bout of global cooling. Their worldwide uptick is tied to low solar activity, coronal holes, a waning magnetosphere, and the influx of Cosmic Rays penetrating silica-rich magma.
Hunga Tonga’s eruption of Jan 15 fired particulates through the stratosphere and into the mesosphere; at 36 miles up, it was the highest volcanic eruption ever recorded. Those particulates are now ‘trapped’ in the upper atmosphere where they are expected to cool the planet by approx. 0.3C.
MANAM BACKGROUND
Stratovolcano: 1807 m / 5,928 ft
Papua New Guinea: -4.08°S / 145.04°E
Current status: ERUPTING (4 out of 5)
Manam volcano, located 13 km off the northern coast of New Guinea near Bogia town, is one of Papua New Guinea’s most active volcanoes. It has one of the longest records of historic eruptions in the SE Pacific region. The larger eruptions of Manam produce pyroclastic flows and sometimes lava flows. Both have repeatedly reached the coast and affected populated areas.
The volcano’s current ongoing eruptive phase technically began back on June 29, 2014 and it has already registered a “4” on the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI). Manam’s eruptive history is peppered with VEI 2s and 3s, but it also has two previous confirmed VEI 4s, from 2004 and 1919 — see volcano.si.edu for more.
Eruption list: ongoing since Aug 2010 (31 July 2015: large vulcanian explosion), 2000-2004 (small subplinian eruptions), 1974-1999, 1965-66, 1963-64, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1959-60, 1959, 1956-58, 1954, 1953, 1946-47, 1936-39, 1932-34, 1926-28, 1925, 1924?, 1923, 1922, 1920-21, 1919, 1917, 1909-14?, 1907?, 1904, 1904, 1901-02?, 1899, 1887-95, 1885, 1884?, 1887, 1830, 1700, 1643, 1616 — for more see VolcanoDiscovery.com.

On Monday, April 17, Papa New Guinea’s highly active Manam Volcano produced another stratospheric eruption, continuing its uptick which began in 2010.
A thick volcanic ash plume rising to at least 45,000 feet (13.7 km) was registered by the Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Darwin using satellite imagery:
Such a high-level eruption is noteworthy because particulates ejected to altitudes above 32,800 ft (10 km) –i.e. into the stratosphere– often linger where they have a direct cooling effect on the planet.
Volcanic eruptions are one of the key forcings driving Earth into its next bout of global cooling. Their worldwide uptick is tied to low solar activity, coronal holes, a waning magnetosphere, and the influx of Cosmic Rays penetrating silica-rich magma.
Hunga Tonga’s eruption of Jan 15 fired particulates through the stratosphere and into the mesosphere; at 36 miles up, it was the highest volcanic eruption ever recorded. Those particulates are now ‘trapped’ in the upper atmosphere where they are expected to cool the planet by approx. 0.3C.
MANAM BACKGROUND
Stratovolcano: 1807 m / 5,928 ft
Papua New Guinea: -4.08°S / 145.04°E
Current status: ERUPTING (4 out of 5)
Manam volcano, located 13 km off the northern coast of New Guinea near Bogia town, is one of Papua New Guinea’s most active volcanoes. It has one of the longest records of historic eruptions in the SE Pacific region. The larger eruptions of Manam produce pyroclastic flows and sometimes lava flows. Both have repeatedly reached the coast and affected populated areas.
The volcano’s current ongoing eruptive phase technically began back on June 29, 2014 and it has already registered a “4” on the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI). Manam’s eruptive history is peppered with VEI 2s and 3s, but it also has two previous confirmed VEI 4s, from 2004 and 1919 — see volcano.si.edu for more.
Eruption list: ongoing since Aug 2010 (31 July 2015: large vulcanian explosion), 2000-2004 (small subplinian eruptions), 1974-1999, 1965-66, 1963-64, 1963, 1962, 1961, 1959-60, 1959, 1956-58, 1954, 1953, 1946-47, 1936-39, 1932-34, 1926-28, 1925, 1924?, 1923, 1922, 1920-21, 1919, 1917, 1909-14?, 1907?, 1904, 1904, 1901-02?, 1899, 1887-95, 1885, 1884?, 1887, 1830, 1700, 1643, 1616 — for more see VolcanoDiscovery.com.
I am so far behind in reading all the posts so please forgive me if this has been discussed already. I am curious to know if any of the various volcanic eruptions that have reached the stratosphere in the past year will affect the USA this summer or are the affects more local to the countries of origin?

April Nor’Easter Drops More Than A Foot Of Snow As Record-Flurries and Freezes Threaten North America’s Crops
April 20, 2022 Cap Allon
An April nor’easter has dropped a foot and a half of snow on parts of New York and Pennsylvania, leading to more than 250,000 customers losing power Tuesday morning (with 160,000 still without as of early Wednesday morning, according to poweroutage.us).
The most snow –18 inches– fell in New York’s southern Cortland County town of Virgil; in second place, with 16.3 inches, was another Central New York spot: the village of Erieville, in Madison County; Piseco, in upstate New York, had received 14 inches by Tuesday morning, with snow still coming down; while Broome County to the south saw a foot and implemented a travel ban — all record totals for the time of year.
In Syracuse, the rapid snowfall –falling at a rate of 1 to 2 inches an hour– prompted numerous school and business closures.
In total, some 40 million Americans were under frost and freeze alerts Tuesday morning stretching from the central Plains to the mid-Atlantic as historically low solar activity continues to weaken the jet stream, reverting its usual tight ZONAL flow to a wavy MERIDIONAL one:
RECAP: The Changing Jet Stream and Global Cooling This forcing fully explains why some far-northern latitudes (such as Siberia) have been experiencing pockets of anomalous heat of late while the lower-latitudes have been dealing with “blobs” of record cold.
Temperatures 20C below the average are making it feel more like winter than late-April; and looking ahead, the freeze is expected to persist: An “abnormally chilly air-mass” in the east will remain through the week, said the NWS, meaning that further low temperature records are under threat across swathes of the Midwest, Great Lakes, and Northeast.
GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C)April 20 – April 26 [tropicaltidbits.com].
Likewise north of the border, historic late-season freezes and snowfalls are prevailing in Canada, too.
This week’s flurries have been one for the record books in London, Ontario.
Monday saw an astonishing 9cm (3.5 inches) of snow settle across the London region, busting the previous benchmark of 7.9cm (3.1 inches) set back in 1947, according to Environment Canada (ECCC).
“Given that it’s the record, I’d say it’s unusual to get (that much),” said –Captain Obvious– Gerald Chang, a meteorologist with the federal weather agency. The snow also prompted ECCC to issue a weather advisory as roads quickly became treacherous.
The area is forecast more snow in the coming weeks: “It’s not a good time to completely put away the shovels,” said Chang.
In fact, looking at the latest GFS run (shown below), this weekend is currently on course to deliver a truly exceptional late-April snowstorm to parts of Wyoming, Montana and North Dakota, and up into southern Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario, too.
A pair of storms will also reach Northern California this week, delivering heavy April snow to the Sierra Nevada mountains Wednesday through Friday. A winter weather advisory is already in place for the greater Lake Tahoe area, warning that 7 inches of could fall across the area’s higher elevations. While chain controls were in place Tuesday on Interstate 80 at summit level.
The Sierra saw heavy snow last week, too, boosting California’s drought conditions after what was a dry January through March. The UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Lab said it measured 39 inches last week alone — a historic amount for mid-April. All this April snow also neatly ‘book-ends’ the season after the state suffered its snowiest December in recorded history at the open — 202 inches accumulated in Dec 2021, breaking the prior all-time record of 179 inches set in Dec 1970.
Eyeing the GFS run below, significant snow is also on the cards for northern Quebec, Labrador and Newfoundland–even as the calendar flips to May, while Greenland can also expect a healthy spring dumping.
GFS Total Snowfall (inches) April 20 – May 6 [tropicaltidbits.com].
Snow this April has already slain hundreds of record across North America.
Enough accumulated at Bogus Basin Mountain, Idaho –for example– that the resort reopened its slopes on Saturday. After a record-snowy December and January, but a relatively snow-less February and March, Bogus Basin’s topsy-turvy season –similar to California’s– dealt another surprise last week after a mid-April blizzard dropped 4+ feet of snow across the Northern Plains.
“…with more snowfall in the last 72 hours than we saw all of February and March (20″+) and more on the way, this is a moment that we can’t pass up!” managers at the Idaho resort wrote on Facebook. The mountain received more than 38 inches of snow by Saturday, and was able to open three lifts.
In neighboring WA, April’s record-breaking chill has reportedly put many Washington farmers on edge as subfreezing temperatures this past week hit orchards, vineyards and fields: “We are definitely concerned and nervous,” said Sean Gilbert, a fruit grower in the Yakima Valley.
This comes after the news that U.S. grain farmers are suffering planting delays which is driving the price of corn to near record highs (spurred also by lower than expected output in Brazil and the Ukraine). Frigid weather is to blame for the delays, reports nasdaq.com. As of Sunday, U.S. corn planting was barely 4% complete –below the five-year average of 6%– and with further delays expected given the persistence of the spring freeze, the situation is only forecast to worsen. Wheat is also in bad shape, according to the USDA, with the agency recently rating 30% of U.S. winter wheat in good-to-excellent condition — a 26-year low.
And headed back above the border, cherry farmers in British Columbia are also struggling, with some using helicopters to force warm air over their trees as unseasonably cool temperatures threaten this year’s crop, reports comoxvalleyrecord.com.
“There were quite a number of temperature records broken across the province,” said ECCC meteorologist Dave Wray — a reality that is proving problematic for Sukhpaul Bal, president of the B.C. Cherry Growers Association: “Buds are starting to open up and blossoms are not too far down the road,” said Bal. “Around this time of year, we don’t like to see too much cold weather.”
Bal said he is grateful that B.C. cherry orchards haven’t suffered heavy snow like in some parts of the United States. But still, Canadian cherry farmers and other fruit growers have endured much recently, as the Grand Solar Minimum continues to intensify the swing between extremes in our planet’s weather patterns.

The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre).

An ag economist says his concerns of tight wheat ending stocks are getting worse with more adverse weather in parts of the Western Plains and Western Cornbelt.
The University of Missouri's Ben Brown said freezing temperatures early this morning in states like Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska give farmers a reason to worry.
"Well, we don't want freeze warnings when the wheat is coming out dormancy...," he said. "This morning would've been something that would've caused some panic."
Brown said the freeze might have knocked out some early planted soybeans too.

Quebec’s Longest-Streak Below 20C, As Record Snowfall Sweeps Montreal; Fresh Snow Buries Serbian Mountains; + Europe Braces For Extreme Arctic Outbreak In May
April 21, 2022 Cap Allon
Quebec’s Longest-Streak Below 20C
The entire Canadian Province of Quebec hasn’t seen the temperature hit 20C (68F) since October 21, 2021 as historic chills –due to historically low solar activity and a weak and wavy jet stream flow– continue to persist across “La Belle Province”.
October 21 to now (April 20) is 183 days — that’s how long Quebecers have been waiting for their thermometers to read 20C (68F), with the forecast suggesting spring will continue to stall across the province, even into May:
Quebec looks set to easily pass the 190 day milestone which would break the record set in 2018-2019 (189 days). If this occurs, it would be the province’s longest-streak below 20C for 27 years–since Oct 14, 1994 to May 2, 1995 (201 days). It would also be the first time since 1995 (solar minimum of cycle 22) that the month of April failed to deliver 20C, reports The Weather Network.
Record Snowfall Sweeps Montreal
A strong coastal storm moved inland over New England Wednesday producing a record-breaking 10cm (4 inches) of late-season snow in Montreal, comfortably enough to break city’s previous daily record of 7.6cm from back in 1949.
The snow was poorly timed, too, coinciding with the morning commute. During a 3-hour window, the flakes accumulated quickly reducing visibility to less than a half kilometre at times and coating area highways causing traffic to slow to a crawl.
Dozens of accidents were reported across metro Montreal and off island to the south and west.
Strong winds combined with the weight of the snow knocked the power out to nearly 50,000 Hydro-Québec customers across the southern portion of the province — the utility’s second major outage in less than a week for the utility.
B.C. Freezes
Looking east, April 16 saw almost two-dozen British Columbia communities set new record low temperatures, causing untold headaches for the province’s cherry farmers.
For some locales it was the third straight day of new record lows: Clinton was one of four communities that saw its lowest-ever minimum temperature for April 16, after also setting new record lows on April 14 and 15 — the low of -9.5C (14.9F) on April 16 smashed the village’s previous low of -7.2C (19F) set back in 1976 (during the solar minimum of cycle 20).
Two of the fallen records on April 16 date back to the 19th century: Vancouver, with -1.2C (29.8F), busted its previous low of -0.6C (30.9F) from 1896 (The Centennial Minimum), while Princeton’s -8.4C (16.9F) broke a record that had stood since 1895’s -6.7C (19.9F). Many of the remaining broken benchmarks extend back to the early 20th Century: Bella Coola (1901), Quesnel (1909), Nelson (1918), and Prince George (1927); with the others: Ashcroft/Cache Creek’s (1995), Kamloop (1971), Lillooet (1973), Lytton (1971), and Merritt (also 1971).
And a final point on Canada, it has been noted that school students in Manitoba have missed as much as three weeks of instruction in 2021-22 as a result of wintry conditions and persistently low, record-breaking temperatures.
As reported therecord.com, the average annual number of “snow days” between 2004-05 and last year ranged from 1.2 to 5.4 days, according to the education department. This year, the provincial average –a figure that takes into account the total number of schools that have experienced at least one shutdown as a result of cold weather conditions– has reached eight days.
“I can’t believe we’re having another storm. I’m done with storms,” said Jerret Long, superintendent of Lord Selkirk School Division, before a Colorado low started moving into the province last week. Long called the closures in his division located northeast of Winnipeg –which stood at 11.5– “unbelievable”, but that unprecedented figure has since risen to 13.5.
Also, metro Winnipeg superintendents have logged the first city school winter-related closures in 25 years.
Fresh Snow Hits The Mountains Of Serbia
Fresh snow is hitting the mountains of Serbia this week as polar cold continues to grip Eastern Europe.
The snow had received record-challening depths by 8AM local time Wednesday: Mt Kopaonik had received 35cm (13.8 inches); Karajukića Bunari saw 22cm (8.7 inches); while Kukavica observed 20cm (7.9 inches).
By 4PM Wednesday the snow line had dropped below 500m in southern half of Serbia–an incredibly rare feat for the time of year; while also by 4PM, the snow depth on Mt Kopaonik had increased to 45cm (17.7 inches), with the flakes still falling.
Temperatures have also been extreme.
Low-lying stations at Vranje and Dimitrovgrad, for example, struggled to daytime highs of around 3C (37.4F).
Europe Braces For Extreme Arctic Outbreak In May
Looking at the latest GFS run (shown below), much of Europe, particularly Western and Central regions, can expect a return to wintry conditions in the coming days and weeks, even as the calendar flips to May.
GFS 2m Temperature Anomalies (C) April 23 – May 7 [tropicaltidbits.com].
From Belarus and Russia in the East to the UK and Portugal in the far West, current weather models are suggesting a historically frigid open to May could be on the cards as the continent’s spring still refuses to show.
Focusing on the UK, a MET Office forecaster predicts temperatures could plummet to as low as -3C (26.6F) within days, with even colder lows expected as we enter May–a month that also threatens widespread snow across vast portions of not only Britain, but also a large bulk of mainland Europe, too, particularly Scandinavia, the Alps and Northern Spain:

These forecast are subject to change, however — so stay tuned for updates.
Crunch Time
There is crunch around the corner. Their Great Reset is in play. And everybody should be bracing/preparing for hyper-inflation, food shortages and civil unrest in the very near future–perhaps even by the harvest of 2022 (so Sept/Oct).
But as gloomy as all this sounds, these issues can be mitigated by 1) exiting the system, and 2) growing our own food. A great many of us feel that it’s time for a reset, but let us rustics be the one leading it. Let us not be led back down the path of authoritarianism, taxes and slavery; let us instead create our own new world off-grid and free from any governing hand.
The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre).

There is crunch around the corner. Their Great Reset is in play. And everybody should be bracing/preparing for hyper-inflation, food shortages and civil unrest in the very near future–perhaps even by the harvest of 2022 (so Sept/Oct).
But as gloomy as all this sounds, these issues can be mitigated by 1) exiting the system, and 2) growing our own food. A great many of us feel that it’s time for a reset, but let us rustics be the one leading it. Let us not be led back down the path of authoritarianism, taxes and slavery; let us instead create our own new world off-grid and free from any governing hand.
The COLD TIMES are returning, the mid-latitudes are REFREEZING in line with historically low solar activity, cloud-nucleating Cosmic Rays, and a meridional jet stream flow (among many other forcings, including the impending release of the Beaufort Gyre). Prepare accordingly — learn the facts, relocate if need be, and grow your own.

Record Snow Sweeps Prince George; Northern Plains And Rockies Set For Second Blizzard In 10 Days; + Global Food Prices At Record Highs, Crippling Shortages Expected By Harvest Time

Record Snow Sweeps Prince George
Prince George, B.C. has endured yet another week of winter, breaking longstanding records in the process.
Snow totals topped 15cm (5.9 inches) in parts of the city on Tuesday, with 11cm (4.3 inches) accumulating at the Prince George airport — these readings smashed April 19’s previous record of 4.2cm (1.6 inches) set back in 1980.
Prior to this week’s record-breaking snow, Prince George was busy busting low temperature benchmarks.
On April 13, -11C (12.2F) usurped the previous record low of -10.5C (13.1F) set in 1981. And then on April 16, a low of -9.5C (14.9F) was logged, pipping the previous record of -9.4C (15.1F) set way back in 1927.
Looking ahead, ECCC meteorologist Derek Lee sees the chance of more anomalous cold and snow into May. And the latest GFS runs (shown below) would appear to back that up. Stealing my attention, however, are the string of Arctic outbreaks readying to engulf North America’s more central/eastern provinces/states…

Northern Plains And Rockies Set For Second Blizzard In 10 Days
As visualized in the animation above, a powerful wintry storm system is poised to unleash very heavy snow and strong winds across much of the northern Rockies and northern Plains starting this Friday.
Affected areas should brace for double-digit snow totals and blizzard conditions for the second time in less than two weeks. The combination of snow and wind is expected to result in extremely difficult travel, downed trees and prolonged power outages.
The system’s northwest flank will be where the harshest, winterlike conditions concentrate, and will drop temps into the 20s.
Winter storm watches were recently upgraded to blizzard warnings for some half a million people in northeast Wyoming, northeast Montana, northwest South Dakota and central and western North Dakota; while another several hundred thousand people in the surrounding areas are under winter storm watches and warnings and winter weather advisories.
The power outage risk will be heightened by the heavy, wet nature of the snow, along with the potential for wind gusts over 50 mph. The National Weather Service warned of “impacts to infrastructure” and “tree damage.”
This winter storm comes hot on the heels of a late-season event that blasted the Northeast with a foot and half of heavy, wet snow earlier in the week, which snapped tree limbs and power lines, and knocked some 300,000 customers off the grid.
Binghamton, serving as just one example, received over 14 inches Monday and Tuesday — a two-day April snowfall record.
And just five days before that, the northern Plains and northern Rockies were hammered by a truly historic blizzard that dumped as much as 2.5 feet of snow across western North Dakota, and more than 1.5 feet in Bismarck–the city’s biggest April snowstorm ever recorded.

The COLD TIMES are returning, the HARVESTS are failing — PREPARE.
In addition to travel disruptions and power outages, this next round of April cold and snowfall will create “hazardous conditions” for young livestock, warns the NWS. It’s calving season in the northern Plains, and calves are very vulnerable to snow drifts and frigid temperatures.
Last week, extensive reports of cattle and calf losses to the blizzard were reported. However, and on the flip-side to that, some ranchers commented that the storm had a positive impact on the area’s ongoing drought.
Global Food Prices At Record Highs, Crippling Shortages Expected By Harvest Time
Food prices are skyrocketing globally, and gaps are appearing on the shelves — this is your final call to action.
A confluence of catastrophes have all-but assured mass starvation for the unprepared–or at best, days spent in ration lines and a complete and utter dependence on state handouts.
This is no longer and mere prediction. This is playing out NOW. And it isn’t a case of paying a little over the odds for a pint of milk or a loaf of bread, it’s a matter of historic, unprecedented food price increases which are already forcing societies poorest into tough choices such has between heating or eating.
The above chart, though accurate, only goes back to 2018 and so doesn’t reveal the true scale of the increases. Statista are also keen to blame the Russia-Ukraine war on the increases, but prices were soaring well-before the conflict began.
TPTB have played a blinder, I hate to admit it. With their COVID debacle, unchecked money-printing and crippling policies tasked with combating climate change, they have orchestrated a global catastrophe, one that is entirely self-inflicted and meticulously planned. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this is a controlled demolition of civilization: before a ‘Great Reset’ you need a Great Depression.
The below ‘World Food Price Index’ better reveals the unprecedented nature of the increases.
FAO Food Price Index | World Food Situation | Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
As touched on above, the reasons are wide-ranging: from supply chain disruptions to delayed planting and fertilizer shortages, and from spiraling inflation to those crippling COVID restrictions — all roads are leading to disaster, but only for the unprepared.
There is a electrical shift occurring on our planet: Earth’s magnetic field is weakening and the output of the Sun is stepping down. This change of frequency is being felt by every living organism. It can explain the increasingly irrational behavior visible in our fellow man, but it can also serve as the catalyst for positive change.
For many, the shift is proving a powerful awakening slap, one snapping them out this hypnotic slave model we’ve all been duped into accepting in which we work and work and work for pennies and then lose 60-70% of it in taxes (in total). This means that from January to September people are effectively working for the government. And for what? Trash collection?
To all those still twiddling their thumbs, THIS is your final call to action.
Truly.
THIS IS IT.
Use this weekend to get out and plant some bloody vegetables already, because by harvest time 2022 there is every chance the proverbial penny will have have dropped for the masses meaning hunger-driven panic and nationwide riots could quickly ensue.
They want to break us. They want us on our knees begging for their Great Reset, their dystopian digital IDs and their intrusive CBDCs. They want the masses so cold, so hungry and so miserable that they’ll sign over the last of their remaining liberties.
But they have, for whatever reason, provided us with an out. It is still possible to exit the system –by heading off-grid and growing our own– but that opportunity is ending, fast: soon people either won’t be able to afford the prepping supplies required or the goods simply won’t be available. (bold mine - alpha)
Back in 2018, myself and my wife took our young family out an increasingly corrupt order in the UK and began building a state-free existence in Central Portugal (an area that has proven a safe haven for humanity for time immemorial). Now, after four years of hard graft and a lot of trial and error –having had no experience in any of this before– we have a self-sustaining bolthole which includes an abundance of fruit and vegetables, a sizable flock of chickens, and an ever-expanding herd of goats–that’s our food covered, but we also have our own water source (a spring-fed lake) and we power everything with solar.
We wanted to work ourselves into a position where if the outside world were to disappear we would largely be unaffected, and we’re almost there. I urge everyone else to take serious steps in this direction, too. It’s currently spring in northern hemisphere, and it’s also the weekend: sow seeds / stockpile dried food / purchase a backup solar array — do whatever, just be sure to make moves each and every day to take back your family’s food security from an increasingly callous, totalitarian regime.
They’ve given us time to escape, for whatever reason.

You and me both! I read a book last night called A Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Written in 1911. She also wrote Little Lord Fauntleroy. She uses a term for this wind: Wuthering.
It was pouring down in torrents and the wind was wuthering round the corners and in the chimneys of the huge old house."
It's been wuthering so hard around here, I wonder if the roof will stay on?!

They used the term Anthropomorphic (man-caused) Climate Change, so the American Holodomor intentionally thrust like a piece of Rebar into the Great Wheel of Progress, seems to me apropo.

‘Earth Day Obsessed with Climate Crusade’ — By Tom Harris
April 25, 2022 Cap Allon
Friday was Earth Day, an event that has been almost entirely hijacked by the climate change movement.
On Earth Day, “Climate” appeared 10 times on the earthday.org home page. The first action item on the Greenpeace USA home page was a link to a new climate communications report. The United Nations International Mother Earth Day home page cited “climate” no less than seven times. Pollution was referenced once. Land once. Water and air not at all. Even Friday’s Google home page doodle took you to a page that showed the supposed impact of climate change.
This has been going on for years. Instead of concentrating on issues affecting people today, Earth Day has been taken over by long term concerns about climate change no matter what else is happening in the world. For example, two years ago, UN Climate Chief Patricia Espinosa “urged the international community to remain focused on Earth Day 2020’s overarching theme of climate change, despite the COVID-19 crisis…” The Earth Day 2020 website went further and called, climate change “the biggest challenge to the future of humanity and the life-support systems that make our world habitable.”
But most people in the world apparently do not agree. For the almost 10 million people who voted in the UN’s “My World” poll that was on the web between 2013 and 2020, “Action on climate change” ranked dead last, despite the agency listing that priority first among issues to be selected from.
Such results are inconvenient for UN climate bureaucrats, so, after ending the My World survey, they are essentially running the poll again. This time, they ask the public to tell them: “WHICH SIX OF THE FOLLOWING GLOBAL GOALS ARE OF IMMEDIATE CONCERN TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY?” So far, 582,106 people have voted and “Climate Action” is currently ranked 9th out of the 17 goals, securing about 10% of the votes cast.
When their surveys showed relatively low concern about environmental issues in their 2015 poll, Gallup proposed several causes of the decline, one of which should trouble Earth Day strategists: they are, in effect, focused on the wrong issue. Gallup explained,
“The primary focus of the environmental movement has shifted toward long-term threats like global warming — issues about which Americans tend to worry less about than more immediate threats like pollution. Importantly, even as global warming has received greater attention as an environmental problem from politicians and the media in recent years, Americans’ worry about it is no higher now than when Gallup first asked about it in 1989.”
Most sensible people are environmentalists and want clean air, land, and water. Yet climate change now dominates, not just Earth Day, but the entire environmental movement, sucking funding and energies away from tackling important short and mid-term issues such as pollution and species at risk. Besides the strategic blunder of focussing on an issue the general public seems to not really care much about, there is a serious ethical problem that will eventually come back to haunt the movement.
Documents such as the Climate Change Reconsidered series of reports from the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change illustrate that debate rages in the scientific community about the causes of climate change. Scientists cannot yet even agree on whether cooling or warming lies ahead, let alone how much we affect the climate. Yet global warming campaigners assert that “the science is settled.” We know for certain, they claim, that our carbon dioxide emissions will cause a planetary emergency unless we radically change our ways.
This makes no sense, of course. Uncertainty is inherent to all science, especially one as complicated as climate change.
The consequence of this overconfidence is tragic. According to the San Francisco-based Climate Policy Initiative, of the over one-half trillion dollars that is now spent annually across the world on climate finance, 91% goes exclusively to mitigation, trying to control future climate states. Only 7% of global climate finance is dedicated solely to helping vulnerable people cope with climate change in the present. Based on an hypothesis about the causes of climate change, we are letting people suffer today so as to possibly help those yet to be born. As the public come to understand this, they will soon regard the climate crusade as fundamentally immoral and today’s environmental movement misguided.
That scenario, not theoretical future climate, is what should most concern environmentalists who worked on Earth Day this year.

The Rockefellers, World Bank, IMF And WEF All Warn Of A “Massive Global Food Crisis”
April 26, 2022 Cap Allon
Their plan is to thin the herd. They’re achieving this by manufacturing a total failure of our energy and food supplies, which, in turn, will bring down our civilization. They’re going to starve us out. However, as their scripture demands, they’re giving us the chance to opt out, to resist, and to prepare — they’re broadcasting warnings:
Rockefellers
Rockefeller Foundation President Rajiv Shah called for debt relief and emergency aid to poorer nations to avert a “massive, immediate food crisis”. Shah is keen to blame Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on the shortages, but the issue, as we know, runs far, far deeper — this is a complete, controlled demolition with all corners of the supply chain — we are under attack.
The war has put at risk exports of wheat, corn, sunflower oil and other foods from Russia and Ukraine that account for some 20% of all calories traded globally (30% of the grain exports). Food prices are now hitting record highs, and low-income nations, already reeling from economic damage due to the pandemic, are already suffering, and are already imposing rationing and curfews as civil unrest mounts.
Another factor finally reaching the masses –via a complicit MSM– are global fertilizer shortages.
In our fragile, mono-cropping and GMO-dependent agricultural racket, shortages of fertilizers are a serious concern. Without such assistance, crop yields across the planet will be dramatically reduced.
The Russian Federation is the world’s number one producer of NPK fertilizers, satisfying more than 30% of the world’s demand. And with Russia effectively offline –i.e. refusing to trade with ‘unfriendly nations’– the 2022 yields of North American crops –for example– are going to be drastically lower (that’s if farmers can even get the seeds in the ground given the historic low temps sweeping the continent’s key growing regions) — a reality that will dawn on the masses come harvest time, so around Sept/Oct.
The fertilizer –and the coming herbicide and pesticide– shortages will have an “even worse” impact on global hunger, cutting crop yields in Africa and other parts of the developing world, added Shah, who went on to call for debt relief for struggling nations so they can purchase fertilizer and food for their people with “money that would otherwise go to creditors in the rich world, including the World Bank” — but Shah isn’t advocating change here, he’s simply spelling out the rules of the game.
World Bank
The world faces a “human catastrophe” from a food crisis, World Bank president David Malpass told the BBC late last week: record rises in food prices will push hundreds of millions of people into poverty and lower nutrition.
The World Bank calculates there could be a “huge” 37% jump in food prices. This would hit the poor hardest, who will “eat less and have less money for anything else such as schooling”. But that 37% figure looks a serious underestimate to me — food prices are already up significantly (see chart below): world wheat prices soared 19.7% in March alone, while maize posted a 19.1% month-on-month increase–hitting a record high along with those of barley and sorghum. Moving ahead, initial price increases of 200-300% are more realistic, with even higher prices to come as the shortages quickly fuel hyperinflation.
When this thing actually gets going –we’re still in the ramping up phase– it will be like a fully stoked stream train.
The FAO Food Price Index hit a fresh record of 159.3 points in March 2022, with no letup in sight.
“It’s a human catastrophe, meaning nutrition goes down,” warned Malpass at a recent IMF-World Bank meeting in Washington. “But then it also becomes a political challenge for governments who can’t do anything about it, they didn’t cause it and they see the prices going up,” he continued.
Malpass added that a knock on “crisis within a crisis” is also arising from the inability of developing countries to service their large pandemic debts, amid rising food and energy prices: “This is a very real prospect. It’s happening for some countries, we don’t know how far it’ll go. As many as 60% of the poorest countries right now are either in debt distress or at high risk of being in debt distress,” he said. So there are your global famine and your global liquidity crisis warnings issued: check & check.
IMF
The IMF have also warned, in strong terms, about the impending global food crisis “if the world leaders do not act fast”.
In a joint statement with other global bodies, such as the WTO and WFP, the IMF recently wrote: “The world is shaken by compounding crises. The fallout of the war in Ukraine is adding to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that now enters its third year, while climate change and increased fragility and conflict pose persistent harm to people around the globe. Sharply higher prices for staples and supply shortages are increasing pressure on households worldwide and pushing millions more into poverty.”
The IMF also listed ways governments and organizations can help strengthen global food security, including provision of emergency food supplies, deployment of financial support to households and countries, facilitation of unhindered trade as well as investment in sustainable food production. But what about simply planting more crops? Why are farmers being paid to not grow crops and instead to keep their land fallow? If the IMF, et al., truly wanted to avoid a food crisis, they would being upping global fertilizer production and also paying all farmers to get planting and rearing. Moreover, if they really had our best interests at heart then they would be urging all of us start ‘Victory Gardens’ and they would be teaching gardening classes in school.
Instead though, we see the exact opposite occurring: the masses are being told that the looming food crisis can only be solved politically. But this is patently absurd and is only being said to 1) ensure the catastrophe actually occurs, and 2) to compound and prolong it. In reality though, where the enlightened reside, food shortages can be solved by dropping seeds into some compost and with the occasional watering.
WEF
World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab told the World Government Summit last month, “History is truly at a turning point,” with economic instability, conflict between major global powers, and the coming fourth industrial revolution.
In a short address delivered virtually to the World Government Summit in Dubai in March, Schwab said there will be systemic and structural changes, and that global supply chains, energy, and food systems will be deeply affected.
Again, they are broadcasting their intentions.
They are giving those that are awake the time to prepare.
Their plan likely actually requires the survival of the alert and strong, because these people will be tasked with ‘building back better’. I worry that after a few years of struggling in an off-grid existence, and long after after famines have ripped through the cities, that many of us preppers will be seduced by the proposed restructuring and will willingly assist in the formation of the New World Order, dooming the cycle to repeat, once again.
The U.S. Administration
Finally, we have Joey J-Joe Biden.
And although very few are still paying attention to anything this bumbling shell of a man says, the guy is reading from the very same script that all the others are, meaning his utterances will also prove prophetic: “It’s going to be real,” he mumbled recently re. food shortages.
America, you are a country full of wonderfully resourceful and creative people, but what’s happening right now is tragic. Famine is on the horizon and social unrest is already rife; and although these issues aren’t confined to the U.S., it stands that you guys have the most the lose. With each passing day more and more power is being ‘wired’ to the east, almost gleefully, and as a result the U.S. dollar is collapsing and, in turn, the American dream is threatened with collapse.
The entire West is guilty of being asleep at the wheel. Social distractions and concerns with fabricated catastrophes (such as AGW) have allowed malign forces to stealthily penetrate the deepest reaches of our culture –our schools– and destroy us from the inside. Children are growing up vacuous and devoid of original thought. They are more concerned with their preferred pronouns rather than the ‘slave-like’ workforce their about to enter into, or how they’re going to eat in a genuine catastrophe.
Because as is always the case with transitions into The New World, it’s the ordinary folk that pay the ultimate price.
And be sure to disregard any MSM spin and hopeium. This collapse is baked in. It is going to happen — it’s ALREADY happening!
Now, with all these warnings entering the mainstream consciousness, it would be pretty dumb to go down with the ship, right The opportunity to resist has been afforded us. Take it. Heed their warnings. Head off-grid and grow your own — take back your family’s food security, either that, or psychologically brace them for breadlines.
I’m off outside to transplant my beefsteak tomatoes (third generation, seed-saved from the past 2 seasons). I urge you all to start a vegetable garden today because failure is part of the game and it’s better to fail now while food is still largely available.
A years food supply and a sizable (heirloom) seed bank are other necessities.
This is going to be bumpy ride, unfortunately. But the sun will still rise each morning and the rains will still come. My overarching hope is that this upheaval will allow those that escape to live life as it was intended, free from totalitarian control and, without getting too hippy-dippy about it, at one with the earth and with cosmological forcings. There is so much we have been untaught.
Confluence Of Catastrophes: The Next Great Depression Could Be Just Months Away
The Rockefellers, World Bank, IMF And WEF All Warn Of A “Massive Global Food Crisis”
April 26, 2022 Cap Allon
Their plan is to thin the herd. They’re achieving this by manufacturing a total failure of our energy and food supplies, which, in turn, will bring down our civilization. They’re going to starve us out. However, as their scripture demands, they’re giving us the chance to opt out, to resist, and to prepare — they’re broadcasting warnings:
Rockefellers
Rockefeller Foundation President Rajiv Shah called for debt relief and emergency aid to poorer nations to avert a “massive, immediate food crisis”. Shah is keen to blame Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on the shortages, but the issue, as we know, runs far, far deeper — this is a complete, controlled demolition with all corners of the supply chain — we are under attack.
The war has put at risk exports of wheat, corn, sunflower oil and other foods from Russia and Ukraine that account for some 20% of all calories traded globally (30% of the grain exports). Food prices are now hitting record highs, and low-income nations, already reeling from economic damage due to the pandemic, are already suffering, and are already imposing rationing and curfews as civil unrest mounts.
Another factor finally reaching the masses –via a complicit MSM– are global fertilizer shortages.
In our fragile, mono-cropping and GMO-dependent agricultural racket, shortages of fertilizers are a serious concern. Without such assistance, crop yields across the planet will be dramatically reduced.
The Russian Federation is the world’s number one producer of NPK fertilizers, satisfying more than 30% of the world’s demand. And with Russia effectively offline –i.e. refusing to trade with ‘unfriendly nations’– the 2022 yields of North American crops –for example– are going to be drastically lower (that’s if farmers can even get the seeds in the ground given the historic low temps sweeping the continent’s key growing regions) — a reality that will dawn on the masses come harvest time, so around Sept/Oct.
The fertilizer –and the coming herbicide and pesticide– shortages will have an “even worse” impact on global hunger, cutting crop yields in Africa and other parts of the developing world, added Shah, who went on to call for debt relief for struggling nations so they can purchase fertilizer and food for their people with “money that would otherwise go to creditors in the rich world, including the World Bank” — but Shah isn’t advocating change here, he’s simply spelling out the rules of the game.
World Bank
The world faces a “human catastrophe” from a food crisis, World Bank president David Malpass told the BBC late last week: record rises in food prices will push hundreds of millions of people into poverty and lower nutrition.
The World Bank calculates there could be a “huge” 37% jump in food prices. This would hit the poor hardest, who will “eat less and have less money for anything else such as schooling”. But that 37% figure looks a serious underestimate to me — food prices are already up significantly (see chart below): world wheat prices soared 19.7% in March alone, while maize posted a 19.1% month-on-month increase–hitting a record high along with those of barley and sorghum. Moving ahead, initial price increases of 200-300% are more realistic, with even higher prices to come as the shortages quickly fuel hyperinflation.
When this thing actually gets going –we’re still in the ramping up phase– it will be like a fully stoked stream train.
The FAO Food Price Index hit a fresh record of 159.3 points in March 2022, with no letup in sight.“It’s a human catastrophe, meaning nutrition goes down,” warned Malpass at a recent IMF-World Bank meeting in Washington. “But then it also becomes a political challenge for governments who can’t do anything about it, they didn’t cause it and they see the prices going up,” he continued.
Malpass added that a knock on “crisis within a crisis” is also arising from the inability of developing countries to service their large pandemic debts, amid rising food and energy prices: “This is a very real prospect. It’s happening for some countries, we don’t know how far it’ll go. As many as 60% of the poorest countries right now are either in debt distress or at high risk of being in debt distress,” he said. So there are your global famine and your global liquidity crisis warnings issued: check & check.
IMF
The IMF have also warned, in strong terms, about the impending global food crisis “if the world leaders do not act fast”.
In a joint statement with other global bodies, such as the WTO and WFP, the IMF recently wrote: “The world is shaken by compounding crises. The fallout of the war in Ukraine is adding to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that now enters its third year, while climate change and increased fragility and conflict pose persistent harm to people around the globe. Sharply higher prices for staples and supply shortages are increasing pressure on households worldwide and pushing millions more into poverty.”
The IMF also listed ways governments and organizations can help strengthen global food security, including provision of emergency food supplies, deployment of financial support to households and countries, facilitation of unhindered trade as well as investment in sustainable food production. But what about simply planting more crops? Why are farmers being paid to not grow crops and instead to keep their land fallow? If the IMF, et al., truly wanted to avoid a food crisis, they would being upping global fertilizer production and also paying all farmers to get planting and rearing. Moreover, if they really had our best interests at heart then they would be urging all of us start ‘Victory Gardens’ and they would be teaching gardening classes in school.
Instead though, we see the exact opposite occurring: the masses are being told that the looming food crisis can only be solved politically. But this is patently absurd and is only being said to 1) ensure the catastrophe actually occurs, and 2) to compound and prolong it. In reality though, where the enlightened reside, food shortages can be solved by dropping seeds into some compost and with the occasional watering.
