You may have heard the tornado sirens in the area Tuesday morning.
They were being tested as part of Severe Weather Preparedness week.
Illinois ranks in the top ten for number of tornadoes each year in the United States, and severe Weather is especially common this time of the year.
That's why we should all be ready for it.
Pekin Fire Chief Kurt Nelson's team responds to emergencies like tornadoes.
He wants you to know the importance of sirens.
"Unfortunately, a lot of people go outside," said Nelson. "The outdoor warning siren is to let you know you need to get inside due to the fact that there is severe weather in the area," added Nelson.
Just a few miles away, when severe Weather is moving through, Tazewell County EMA Director Dawn Cook's crew is relaying info from trained spotters to the National Weather Service.
"The information we get from spotters out in the field comes into this office ... and then that information is directly relayed to the National Weather Service."
That's a couple of ways officials work to keep you safe, but they say a lot of it lies in your own hands.
"Tornadoes have happened in every single month across Illinois," said Ed Shimon, Meteorologist for the National Weather Service's central Illinois office.
Meteorologists say that's all the more reason to be prepared.
If skies look gray, you may think you're safe, but there are often hidden dangers.
For example, tornadoes are not always visible; they can be rain wrapped. That is just one of the severe weather myths.
Many believe rivers and valleys detour tornadoes, but that is also false. We have seen many in the Illinois River valley.
Likewise, tornadoes often happen within cities. There have been many cases, especially in the Great Planes, where tornadoes have struck metro areas.
There is also the old tale that you should seek shelter under an overpass or bridge; that is false too.
What about opening your windows to equalize pressure? That's something you also should never do.
"Seconds save lives," said Shimon. " Adding, "don't worry about what the windows are doing, just get to safe shelter."
Like many, you may have been confused by the tornado drill Tuesday morning.
If you have cable or satellite television, the message may have been worded strangely.
Many expressed concern that the alert stated, "tornado warning" and not that it was simply a test.
That is because many cable and satellite companies have their own Emergency Alert Systems.
Tuesday serves as an example of how it is important to always be on alert; you never know when Mother Nature could strike.

CLIMATEGATE: The Global Warming Cover Up Spreads to NASA
Global Warming Alarmists have more reason to be alarmed thanks to Chris Horner's ongoing investigation of the climate science community. The more Chris digs, the uglier the science gets. PJTV's Danika Quinn talks to the "Red Hot Lies" author about the latest troubling revelation. The data NASA scientists use to calculate global warming, it turns out, is totally tainted. Why does the mainstream media continue to treat the institution as credible? Horner has some thoughts. Watch the Video.

Firefighters take part in St. Patrick's Day parade
Planning on attending St. Patrick’s Day festivities in Sacramento? Don’t forget to accessorize your green garb with an umbrella, as there’s a chance of showers Saturday.
The National Weather Service predicts a 30 percent chance of showers Saturday during the daytime, potentially drizzling upon parade-goers at the 22nd annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade through Old Sacramento. Festivities will begin at 11:30 a.m. before the parade steps off at 1 p.m.
Any precipitation should clear up by Saturday night, when holiday revelers can join up with the Old Sac bar crawl, or go see Sacramento Republic FC’s opening match against San Antonio FC at 7:30 p.m. at Cal Expo. You may want to bring a blanket, though, as lows will drop to about 38 degrees.
Sunday is expected to be mostly sunny, with a high of 59 degrees.
Those trying to get away for the holiday weekend should keep an eye out for road closures. In the Sierra, a continued snowstorm led to the closure of Interstate 80 in both directions from Colfax in Placer County to the Nevada state line on Friday due to zero visibility over the Donner Summit.
Caltrans highly discouraged mountain travel, warning motorists to be prepared for near-whiteout conditions.
The snowstorm dumped several feet of snow on Lake Tahoe ski resorts, with Heavenly and Kirkwood reporting a 28-inch one-day snowfall, and Northstar reporting 26 inches. A winter storm warning will remain in effect for the greater Lake Tahoe area until 5 a.m. Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.
Northstar spokeswoman Stephanie Myers recommended that eager skiers attempting to head to the slopes heed Caltrans warnings, and noted that snowfall is expected to continue through Saturday.
Sunday is expected to be mostly sunny with plenty of fresh powder blanketing the trails — making for “fantastic spring skiing or riding.”

Flash floods across the Fylde coast as storm hits
Motorists faced difficult conditions during their evening commutes as stormy weather pelted the Fylde coast.
Areas of flash flooding have been reported in areas of Blackpool, Fleetwood and Wyre.
The Met Office had earlier issued a severe weather warning on Wednesday afternoon with storms moving north through Lancashire towards Cumbria.
Gary Culpan posted on Facebook: "It was like driving into the sea under the bridge on Devonshire Road."
Meanwhile, residents were reporting sewers and drains were overflowing due to the deluge and public transport was being diverted away from the worst affected areas.
The Sainsbury's store on Red Bank Road in Blackpool was forced to close due to the weather with reports on social media that the roof had been breached.
The Tesco superstore at the Clifton Retail Park was also heavily flooded.
Karen Clifft posted on Facebook: "It has flooded our road in Bispham too, water was nearly in the houses, myself and my neighbours had to go out and unblock drains to take the water away. The road at the front is also flooded, but thankfully subsiding now the rain has eased."
A spokesman for the Lancashire Fire and Rescue service said crews were dealing with a number of incidents in relation to the flooding.


With temperatures expected to dip overnight in the Lower Mainland and snow in the forecast, Vancouver is opening extra emergency shelter spaces in the city.
Environment Canada issued a special weather statement over the weekend, warning of accumulations up to 10 centimetres in some parts of the region.
In preparation, the City of Vancouver issued an extreme weather alert and announced it's opening extra shelter spaces and a warming centre.
The spaces are at:
- Directions Youth Services Centre at 1138 Burrard St. – open from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. with seven mats
- Evelyne Saller Centre at 320 Alexander St. – open from 11 p.m. to 8 a.m. with 32 mats
- Tenth Church at 11 10th Ave. – open from 9 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. with 10 mats
- Warming centre at Powell Street Getaway at 528 Powell St. – open from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m.
"If you are sleeping outside, please come to the safety of the shelters," the city's notice says. "Physical distancing will be encouraged to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19."
Environment Canada says the weather system bringing wet snow or rain is expected to arrive to the South Coast by the afternoon. Precipitation will last overnight.
"Prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions," the weather statement says. "Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow."
Monday's forecast predicts Vancouver's temperatures will dip as low as 2 C in the evening.


Wind alert sug

Hi - In addition to the prevailing wind speed and direction, it would be great if wind gust velocity could be incorporated into the wind alert filter. Gust intensity is equally - perhaps more - important than average wind speed for free flight planning.

The solar events of the last 24 hours :
- Solar activity has been eruptive during the past 24 hours, featuring nine C flares. The brightest flare (C3.6) peaked at 04:28 UT on September 4 and was produced by NOAA AR 11837 like most C flares in this period. More C flares are likely within the next 48 hours, with a slight chance for an M flare, especially from NOAA AR 11837.
- The solar wind speed ranged between 380 and 480 km/s in the past 24 hours.
- In the same period, the Interplanetary Magnetic Field decreased from around 8 to 4 nT.
- Currently, on the Sun can be identified 4 active regions with sunspots .
The geomagnetic activity was at quiet levels during the past 24 hours. Quiet conditions are expected for September 4 to 6, with a chance for active periods on September 5, due to the effects of a Coronal Hole high speed stream.

Google’s ‘Desire to Live in the Desert’ program is offering free trips to remote desert areas, including parts of Africa and Australia.
In the first half of this year, Google has set up a network of 100 free destinations in Africa and the Middle East, which will be spread out across 25 countries.
Google will give away free travel to 100 destinations around the world this year.
The first 100 destinations include parts of Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya, Lebanon, Pakistan, Sudan, Yemen and the United Arab Emirates.
“This program is a big step forward in bringing people together around the globe to enjoy our shared shared shared natural resources,” said David Anderson, CEO of Google.
Desert environments are a hot topic, with climate change posing a threat to desert ecosystems worldwide.
More than 50 countries around the planet have committed to limiting global warming to 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels, while more than one million people have been forced from their homes by drought.
On Wednesday, the UN’s World Meteorological Organisation said it would be raising the threshold for climate change to 3.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels by the end of the century.
It also said global warming is “the greatest threat to life on Earth” and that we have the ability to stop it.

Early Birds should keep an eye on the sky Friday morning!
November’s Full Moon will also be a “Blood Moon” as it undergoes a lunar eclipse, taking on a reddish appearance between 1am EST and 7am EST. The peak of the lunar eclipse takes place at 4:02am EST.
What is a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the full moon moves into the shadow of Earth, when the moon, Earth and sun are exactly or closely aligned.
As the moon moves into the Earth’s shadow, the moon’s surface begins to darken and eventually a color shift occurs.
Why is it called a “Blood Moon”?
“Blood Moons” receive their nickname as the moon shifts from the more common white to a reddish hue.
But what is causing this color change?
As the moon moves into Earth’s shadow, the Earth blocks all sunlight from reaching the moon’s surface. The only light that is reaching the moon is light that has traveled through Earth’s atmosphere, which filters out all blue wavelengths and only allows reddish wavelengths to pass through.
As a result, only reddish light is able to travel from Earth to the moon -- which is then reflected back to Earth for us to see.
Atlanta Weather Forecast during the Lunar Eclipse
The eclipse will take place early in the morning Friday, well before sunrise. It will be chilly, but the skies will be mostly clear!
Temperatures will be in the low 40s at 1am, dipping into the upper 30s through the peak of the eclipse. Expect breezy conditions as a Northwest wind gusts 10-15 mph.
Share your photos with us!
If you are a shutter bug with an eye on the sky, we would love to see your photos of the Blood Moon! Share your photos with us on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram!

World warming is a gradual enhance within the general temperature of the earth’s ambiance usually attributed to the greenhouse impact brought on by elevated ranges of water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Examples of gases ( GHGs) which contribute to international warming are
- Carbon dioxide
- Water vapor
- Nitrogen oxides
- Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
Though methane, nitrogen oxides, chlorofluorocarbons are current in small portions these gases stay within the ambiance for a really very long time and have a higher potential to soak up warmth. One molecule of CFCs can have the identical impact as 10,00zero Co2 molecules in its potential to soak up warmth.
Causes of world warming
- Burning Of Fossil Fuels- Fossil gasoline combustion provides about 5billion tons of CO2 per 12 months to the ambiance. About half of that is absorbed by the oceans and crops whiles the opposite half stays within the ambiance.
- Tree felling or Deforestation
- Burning of wooden for objective of gasoline
- The usage of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC’s) in refrigeration and air situation techniques and within the manufacturing of plastic foams.


The summer-like period of fine weather is slowly coming to an end! During the change, increasing humidity will add to the heat. The morning will start bright, but with cumulus cloud increasing and the air becoming sultry, showers and thunderstorms will develop. Strong gales and even hail are expected!
After a fairly cloudy and cool Saturday, a new area of high pressure will follow on Sunday and persist for the next few days.
In Praxmar is a toboggan run, which is always in good condition. Based on the large car park you can toboggan down the valley, just 700 meters you get to the fish pond in Lüsens. For the return you have the opportunity to just go to the toboggan run track back up, or to walk to Lüsens, and from there via the trail along the cross-country to get back to Praxmar. The toboggan run is lit daily until 1:00 clock!


Heat record in Schleswig-Holstein: More than 39 degrees on July 20th, 2022 in the district of Herzogtum-Lauenburg and also in Kiel, the thermometer climbed to over 36 degrees on Wednesday afternoon.
The two-day heat wave in July 2022 also set a heat record in Schleswig-Holstein. The previous high of 38 degrees, measured in August 1992 in Lübeck, was clearly surpassed yesterday, Wednesday. In Grambek in the district of Herzogtum-Lauenburg, 39.1 degrees were measured in the evening. And in many parts of the country the thermometer showed well over 30 degrees. For example in Kiel with 36.5 degrees, Hohwacht (37.5 degrees) or Lübeck (37.9 degrees).
Only on the North Sea islands was it quite tolerable on Wednesday, here the temperatures remained below the 30 degree mark, such as in Westerland and List on the island of Sylt or in Wyk auf Föhr.
The temperatures are measured in the shade, but of course it was much warmer in the direct sun. For example, the thermometer in Kiel at 6.30 p.m. was still showing more than 46 degrees in the sun.
The bathing beaches in Kiel and the surrounding area on the Kiel Fjord and the Baltic Sea have been particularly well attended in the past few days, such as the bathing beaches in Schilksee, Strande, Falckensteiner Strand on the west bank and the beaches in Hasselfelde, Mönkeberg, Heikendorf and Laboe on the east bank of the fjord.


Kpbj.com When discussing global warming, one phrase recurs: “scientific consensus.” Environmental activists often cite “science” when arguing for far-reaching and costly responses to global warming. Ironically, those activists ignore the findings of that same science. The potential impacts they cite are based not on science but on speculation which contradicts the actual science.
One activist claimed that, “In the lifetime of a child born today, sea levels could rise three to six feet.” The scientific consensus says this is nonsense. Using the science from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), University of Washington scientists found the most likely sea level rise for the next century is about 13 inches, with the high of 50 inches called “very unlikely.” Understand also, sea levels rose about one foot during the last 150 years.

Lakeshore Flood Warning in effect; waves to 18 feet expected
BERRIEN COUNTY, Mich. -- Well, here we go again. Powerful winds and waves are heading for our lakeshore communities. This time, though, it could be even worse than what we've seen this season.Instead of a Lakeshore Flood Advisory, the National Weather Service has placed the counties of Berrien, La Porte and Van Buren under a Lakeshore Flood Warning.
That is a step above the advisory, and means significant problems along the lakeshore are either imminent or expected in the near future.Winds will turn westerly and eventually northwesterly Saturday evening. They will gust 35-45 mph, especially along the lake.
That will send waves into the shoreline from the northwest, significantly impacting all beaches. Those that face slightly north of west -- Tiscornia Park, Lions Park, Washington Park, etc. -- will see the absolute worst of the conditions.Waves will grow all day Saturday before reaching maximum heights of 10-15 feet Saturday late evening into Sunday morning.
Some waves could potentially grow to 18 feet from St. Joseph northward to Grand Haven, Michigan.That will lead to extensive beach and dune erosion, possible structure damage to sidewalks and parks, lakeshore flooding, and deadly conditions on piers and jetties up and down the eastern side of Lake Michigan.
Wave action and winds will calm a bit late Sunday as our system pulls farther away from the region.

The DAVIS Vantage Pro 2 with ventilation (active radiation protection shield) is a radio weather station with a transmission range from station to monitor of up to 150m. It is operated with solar power through an integrated photovoltaic panel. An additional solar panel operates a fan that circulates the air around the temperature sensor. This means that the temperature is measured more precisely even when there is direct sunlight on the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor does not have to be installed in the shade. The Vantage Pro 2 is equipped as standard with the following sensors and display or transmission units:
- Wireless sensor unit ISS (Integrated Sensor Suit) with solar panel
- With active radiation protection shield (fan) and additional solar panel
- Rain gauge (resolution 0.2 mm)
- Temperature sensor
- Relative Humidity Sensor
- Air pressure sensor
- Anemometer (wind direction and wind speed) with 12m connection cables
- LCD monitor with power supply (can also be operated with batteries)
In addition, the Vantage Pro 2 can be equipped with additional modules that are used to measure leaf moisture, soil moisture and solar radiation.
The Vantage Pro 2 is optionally available without the radiation protection shield (ventilation).

NORWALK — City officials are in a “monitoring the situation” mode regarding the possibility of extreme weather with heavy rains predicted this weekend and Hurricane Joaquin heading up the East Coast early next week.
Norwalk’s Emergency Management Team met Friday morning at fire headquarters on Connecticut Avenue and each department expressed confidence in their preparedness. Many expressed relief that Hurricane Joaquin is now forecasted to head out to sea by the time it reaches New England, sparing the region its full wrath. The various departments will remain in communication with each other throughout the weekend and early next week should dangerous conditions arise.

Yellow alert sounded after incessant rain batters Bengaluru | Bengaluru News – Times of India
Though the damage was little till late evening, rain made matters worse for many Bengalureans, given the poor state of roads in most localities.
BENGALURU: Incessant rain through Thursday left Bengalureans longing for some sun and warm weather. The drizzle that often turned into downpour slowed traffic movement before intensifying into heavy showers as dusk set in.
A tree each was uprooted in Vasanthnagar, KR Puram and Krishnayyanapalya and a branch fell near Thanisandra. Water-logging was reported from CMR College, Banaswadi; Brigade Road; Basappa Circle in Kalasipalya; KEB Junction in Nagawara; 12th Cross in HBR Layout and New Byappanahalli. Water entered a house in Canara Bank Colony of Vidyaranyapura.
Though the damage was little till late evening, rain made matters worse for many Bengalureans, given the poor state of roads in most localities. The forecast of at least two more wet days added to the gloom. The Indian Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert in the city and neighbouring districts for Friday. A yellow alert means people are required to be on watch and look out for updates. Civic works under way in Malleswaram, Banaswadi, Ramamurthynagar, Old Madras Road, Banashankari and Indiranagar only added to Bengalureans’ woes.
“It’s been raining for the past two weeks. I have been using my car to reach office, but today (Thursday) morning the traffic was down to a crawl. It is quite difficult to drive at such times given the bad infrastructure,” said motorist Janardhana H, who was driving from his Banaswadi home to his workplace in Richmond Town.
“It is difficult to even move around in our locality. Recently, Bescom dug up the road to lay cables. BWSSB dug up roads for installing new water and sewage lines. Neither has fixed the roads properly. When can we lead a normal life,” asked Sandesh Shetty, a resident of Banashankari 2nd Stage.
As of 8.30pm, the city received 37mm of rain, whereas Kempegowda International Airport and HAL recorded 20mm and 39.2mm, respectively.
With a depression forming over southwest Bay of Bengal, more rain and thunderstorms are expected in Bengaluru, neighbouring districts and coastal Karnataka in the next few days.
According to the Met department, a depression over southwest Bay of Bengal, off North Tamil Nadu coast, is very likely to cross North Tamil Nadu and south Andhra Pradesh coasts early Friday morning. Under the influence of these systems, Karnataka is likely to receive widespread rain for the next four days, with heavy showers at isolated places.


The upper elevations at Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows, CA saw up to seven inches on Tuesday and it continued to fall heavily right through Wednesday, dropping another eight inches.
A third system overnight is forecast to dump almost 2-FEET by Thursday morning, with more snow expected through the day. A fourth and final storm is expected to roll in Saturday with up to a foot more of snow. All told, we are looking at two to three or more feet at the upper elevations by Sunday.
We are right on the brink of being able to open a significant amount of new terrain, so we will be working hard to prepare and will be evaluating closely in the coming days. We currently have nine lifts open for skiing and riding, plus snow tubing and Aerial Tram rides.

General News of Monday, 28 October 2013
Ghanaians have been urged to prepare for this weekend’s partial hybrid solar eclipse.
Ghana and other parts of West Africa will on November 3, experience the natural phenomenon.
A partial hybrid solar eclipse is a stellar spectacle where there is a maximum partial covering of the Sun by the Moon.
It will happen at 22 minutes past 1 p.m. that day. Barring any rains or cloudy weather, Ghanaians will see the normal afternoon sunny light being dimmed for about one-and-half minutes.
About 80 to 85 percent of the Sun’s face would be covered by the Moon.
A member of the African Astronomical Society, Prof Emmanuel Amamoo-Otchere in an interview with XYZ News said Ghanaians must not forget their eyeshades when watching the phenomenon.

She has taught science courses at the high school, college, and graduate levels. our editorial process Facebook Facebook Twitter Twitter Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D. Updated February 07, 2018 People predicted the weather back in ye good olde days before Doppler radar and GOES satellites using simple instruments. One of the most useful instruments is a barometer, which measures air pressure or barometric pressure. You can make your own barometer using everyday materials and then try to forecast the weather yourself. Barometer Materials glass, jar, or canplastic wrapa strawrubber bandindex card or lined notebook papertapescissors Construct the Barometer Cover the top of your container with plastic wrap. You want to create an airtight seal and a smooth surface.Secure the plastic wrap with a rubber band. The most important part of making the barometer is getting a good seal around the rim of the container.Lay the straw over the top of the wrapped container so that about two-thirds of the straw is over the opening.Secure the straw with a piece of tape.Either tape an index card to the back of the container or else set up your barometer with a sheet of notebook paper behind it.Record the location of the straw on your card or paper.Over time the straw will move up and down in response to changes in air pressure. Watch the movement of the straw and record the new readings. How the Barometer Works High atmospheric pressure pushes on the plastic wrap, causing it to cave in. The plastic and the taped section of straw sink, causing the end of the straw to tilt up. When atmospheric pressure is low, the pressure of the air inside the can is higher. The plastic wrap bulges out, raising the taped end of the straw. The edge of the straw falls until it comes to rest against the rim of the container. Temperature also affects atmospheric pressure so your barometer needs a constant temperature in order to be accurate. Keep it away from a window or other places that experience temperature changes. Predicting the Weather Now that you have a barometer you can use it to help predict the weather. Weather patterns are associated with regions of high and low atmospheric pressure. Rising pressure is associated with dry, cool, and calm weather. Dropping pressure forecasts rain, wind, and storms. Quickly-rising pressure that starts from average or high pressure during fair weather indicates a low-pressure cell is approaching. You can expect the pressure to start to fall as poor weather approaches.Quickly rising pressure (over a few hours or a couple of days) after a period of low pressure means you can expect a short period of good weather.Slowly rising barometric pressure (over a week or so) indicates good weather that will stick around a while.Slowly falling pressure indicates the presence of a nearby low-pressure system. Changes in your weather are unlikely at this time.If the pressure continues to drop slowly you can expect a long period of bad (as opposed to sunny and clear) weather.A sudden drop in pressure (over a few hours) indicates an approaching storm (usually arriving within 5-6 hours). The storm probably involves wind and precipitation, but won't last long.

A cooler look in the midday weather data Tuesday helped nudge natural gas futures a few cents higher, though forecasters expressed some skepticism because of recent inconsistency in the models. The February Nymex contract gained 2.7 cents Tuesday to settle at $2.162/MMBtu. March picked up 1.9 cents to $2.153, while April settled at $2.146, up 1.1 cents.
In the spot market, amid generally mild conditions nationwide, forecasts offered enough chills to rally hubs in New England and in the Western United States, helping push NGI’s Spot Gas National Avg. a penny higher to $2.090.
Both the American and European datasets shifted colder Tuesday after advertising warmer trends overnight, according to NatGasWeather.
The data has been “flip-flopping between milder and colder trends every other run for the important Jan. 15-21 period as the weather models struggle to determine just how much frigid Arctic air over southwestern Canada will release across the Midwest,” the forecaster said. “…This will need close monitoring, as colder trends could quickly show in the days ahead, which will be required to finally end bearish weather sentiment.”
Bespoke Weather Services said it continues to see enough tightness in the supply/demand balance to support prices should Mother Nature provide a sustained stretch of “even just normal” temperatures.
However, “that has been a tough chore, and the hope we saw” in Monday’s midday data “was not able to hold in the overnight model cycle,” Bespoke said, noting that this raises the question of whether cooler trends in Tuesday’s midday runs will endure overnight. “We remain skeptical of cold out in the 11-15-day period until it is able to progress forward into the six- to 10-day.
“We do still see some chance for tropical forcing shifts to allow some of the western cold to escape eastward late month, so there is some risk that, this time, it is not just a bunch of modeled false alarms.”
With warmer-than-normal conditions dominating forecasts, the March/April spread, sometimes called the “widowmaker” spread, shifted into negative territory in recent sessions. Last Thursday and Friday — and again on Monday — the March contract settled lower than April.
“The spread is one gauge of winter risk premiums built into the front-month contract,” analysts at EBW Analytics Group said. “If there were a greater risk of running out of natural gas storage by the end of winter, the spread would be sharply higher.”
March outgained April in Tuesday’s session, settling 0.7 cents higher. In the near term, even a “short-lived” cold snap could prove enough to keep the spread back in positive territory, according to EBW.
“As the March contract assumes the front-month role at the end of January, however, growing downward pressure may turn the March-April spread increasingly negative” and potentially send futures below $2.00, the EBW analysts said.
A number of locations in the Rockies and California posted double-digit gains Tuesday as the National Weather Service (NWS) was calling for heavy precipitation over the Pacific Northwest.
“The Pacific Northwest will continue to be in an active wet pattern with scattered to widespread coastal rains and mountains snows,” the NWS said. Some areas could see a foot or more of snow. “…As the cold front tracks further through the Rockies and out into the Plains by Thursday, showers and thunderstorms will overspread the Mississippi Valley ahead of its arrival.
“Another round of precipitation will begin to move onshore the Pacific Northwest by late Thursday and continue into the weekend, spreading the snow across the Intermountain West/Rockies and into portions of the Great Basin.”
Genscape Inc. meteorologists were predicting an extended cold snap for Southern California starting Wednesday, raising the prospect of more withdrawals from the restricted Aliso Canyon storage facility. This also should mean continued upward pressure on spot prices in the region, Genscape analyst Joe Bernardi said.
Southern California Gas (SoCalGas) has pulled 8.9 Bcf from Aliso since Nov. 20, with the utility sending out 2.981 Bcf/d on average to cover demand during that time frame, according to Bernardi. That’s the highest mark for that period since 2016.
“However, during that stretch of time in 2016, SoCal Citygate basis price averaged just 16 cents and never got above 50 cents,” the analyst said. “This past year, from Nov. 20 through the end of the end of the year, SoCal Citygate basis price averaged $3.34 and never got below $2.05.”
While SoCal Citygate prices have been elevated on average, they have not spiked to the extreme highs observed in the 2017/18 and 2018/19 winters, Bernardi said.
“The difference so far between this winter and the previous two has been greater availability for imports and storage withdrawals,” Bernardi said. “…With Genscape meteorologists forecasting colder-than-normal weather for Southern California” starting Wednesday and continuing for the next week and a half, “prices could continue to remain elevated, and more withdrawals from Aliso Canyon appear likely. SoCalGas’ overall storage has remained fairly robust thus far: the latest system-wide inventory is 111% of the average for this date following the Aliso leak.”
Meanwhile, New England prices rallied Tuesday as temperatures in the region were expected to cool off somewhat over the next few days. Algonquin Citygate added 20.0 cents to average $3.225, while Iroquois Zone 2 jumped 67.5 cents to $3.100.
Maxar’s Weather Desk was calling for lows in Boston to drop from the mid-30s on Tuesday down into the low-20s by Thursday.
Elsewhere, prices were steady throughout much of the middle third of the Lower 48. Regional averages from the Gulf Coast to the Southeast all traded within a nickel of even, and it was a similar story for the Midwest, Midcontinent and Appalachia. Henry Hub averaged $2.105, up half a penny.

4 killed as tornadoes sweep through Dallas area
2 or possibly 3 tornadoes touched down
Four people died in a storm-related incident in Texas near where a tornado touched down on Saturday, bringing the death toll from tornadoes and flooding this week in the southern United States to 22, according to officials and local media.
- Tornado causes 'significant damage' in Birmingham, Alabama
- Survivors of deadly U.S. storms in South thankful to see Christmas
- U.S. storms in South leave at least 14 people dead
The four victims were killed in what was believed to be a traffic accident in the Texas city of Garland, about 24 kilometres northeast of Dallas, police spokesman Mike Hatfield told the Dallas Morning News. Reuters could not independently verify the report as local authorities could not be immediately reached.
The weather is the latest in the U.S.'s freakish winter storms that sent temperatures plunging to near zero wind chill in the western Plains even as numerous record highs are forecast for the eastern U.S.
The Texas tornadoes shifted the national focus away from the Southeast where days of tumultuous weather including tornadoes left 18 people dead over the Christmas holiday period.
National Weather Service Meteorologist Anthony Bain in Fort Worth, Texas, said two or possibly three tornadoes touched down in the Dallas area, although the full extent of damage would not be known until daylight Sunday.
WFAA television in Dallas showed video of damage to homes, a church and vehicles stretching from Garland, about 30 kilometres northeast of Dallas to Glenn Heights, 30 kilometres south of the city.
The emergency manager of Ellis county south of Dallas, Stephanie Parker, posted on twitter: "We have destroyed and damaged homes. Please do not get out on the roads if you do not have to."
The twisters — accompanied by torrential rain, wind and some hail — were part of a weather system that could produce major flooding from north Texas through eastern Oklahoma, eastern Kansas, western Arkansas and parts of Missouri.
The severe weather snarled air traffic in the Dallas area. The Dallas Mavericks NBA game was delayed by 30 minutes because of the storm.
West Texas, New Mexico brace for snow
On the other side of Texas and including much of New Mexico, a snowstorm accompanied by plunging temperatures was expected to leave up to 40 centimetres of snow through Sunday evening, according to NWS meteorologist Brendon Rubin-Oster in College Park, Maryland.
"It's going to be quite dangerous for anyone exposed to these elements," Rubin-Oster said.
Snow fell as the Sun Bowl college football game between Miami and Washington State Saturday afternoon and El Paso was forecast to get 15 to 20 centimetres of snow overnight.
Jason Strunk, the football coach at Lubbock High School in West Texas, said he was checking his home's pipes and laying out cat litter for traction on his sidewalk and driveway, just as he learned growing up and living in colder climates farther north. Strunk's major concern was unprepared drivers going out on wet, icy roads.
"When we get an inch or two, people panic," he said. "They really don't know how to drive in this kind of stuff."
Meanwhile, two more deaths linked to weather were reported Saturday in Mississippi, bringing that state's death toll from severe weather over Christmas to 10. Late Saturday, one death was reported in Alabama.
Flash flooding closed roads across Alabama and trapped motorists in rapidly rising waters.
Boy saved from flooded car
Ranager Tyler and his son waded into flood water Christmas night and used rope to pull an 11-year-old boy out after his family's car was swept away near Pinson, about 24 kilometres northeast of Birmingham.
"The little boy was hanging on to the back of the car," Tyler said Saturday.
The family's car was overcome with flood water and ended up in a ditch near Tyler's Pinson home. The rushing water separated the family as they got out of the car, he said. The boy was later reunited with his family.
Mississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Greg Flynn said 56 injuries were reported. In a statement, Flynn said preliminary damage estimates show 241 homes were destroyed or severely damaged.
More than 400 homes in total were affected, he said. Severe storms are forecast for Sunday night through Monday as a strong cold front pushes through. Tornadoes are possible, and residents are asked to remain alert.
The flooding is the result of heavy downpours that have thrashed the southeastern U.S. since Wednesday, bringing record rainfalls in some areas. Four inches of rain walloped the city of Mobile, Ala., on Wednesday — smashing the previous record of 5.6 centimetres set in 1990.
Six people were killed in Tennessee, including three who were found in a car submerged in a creek, according to the Columbia Police Department. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency said Saturday that authorities were monitoring areas for possible flooding.
One person died in Arkansas, and dozens of homes were damaged or destroyed.
One bit of good news for the battered Southeast was a forecast for calmer weather on Sunday. Temperatures in the eastern third of the country could set numerous records Sunday, Rubin-Oster said. Washington, D.C. could see a record daily temperature of 23 C Sunday, New York City 18 C —which would break a record of more than 50 years —and Orlando, Florida could tie a record of 30 C set in 1921.
Flood warnings in effect
In Alabama, Gov. Robert Bentley on Saturday visited weather-damaged areas in Coffee County. A statement from the governor's office said that about 190 roads across Alabama were closed due to flooding.
Authorities on Saturday recovered the body of a five-year-old boy who drowned after the car he was riding in was submerged by floodwaters on Friday, said Coffee County Coroner Robert Preachers. The search is ongoing for a 22-year-old man who was also in the car.
A flood warning was in effect late Saturday afternoon for parts of northern Alabama.
Part of the damage was caused by a tornado that touched down in Birmingham on Friday evening.
Peak tornado season in the South is in the spring, but such storms can happen at any time. Exactly a year ago, tornadoes hit Mississippi, killing five people and injuring dozens.

The warmest temperatures of the summer are in store for this week and into the weekend in central Illinois.
DeWitt County Emergency Management Agency Director Teresa Barnett says heat index values will be in the triple digits through the weekend.
The elderly, children and pets need to be watched closely during this time. Barnett encourages those who live near an elderly person to frequently check on them and to keep a close eye on children and pets.
Cooling centers will be opened up for this stretch of weather. Barnett says the DeWitt County Friendship Center (Thursday and Friday) and the Warner Library (Thursday through Saturday) will be opened starting Thursday.
Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-90s all the way into the weekend with heat index values consistently in the triple-digits.
An excessive heat watch has been issued until Saturday evening.

A news release from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory about its new mineral-mapping instrument on the International Space Station caused an uproar among Oil Conservation Division (OCD) staff in the last week of October.
The notification, sent to science enthusiasts around the world, featured the agency’s new ground camera and led with an image of a massive methane leak from a gas well along the Pecos River, 10 miles southeast of Carlsbad, New Mexico.
In the image, the emerging cloud extends just over two miles due north, a riot of angry reds and blues reflecting varying concentrations of the incredibly potent greenhouse gas. These high concentrations are why the new instrument detected the event it wasn’t exactly looking for.
NASA’s Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation — known as EMIT — originally went into space to map minerals in this planet’s deserts to understand how dust from those locations affects global climate. Methane detection is a bonus.
“It’s not formally part of the mission as stated and funded,” said Andrew K. Thorpe, a research technologist at JPL who works on the project and has studied methane emissions for the past decade. “I’m just taking a small subset of the data that’s already being collected on this other NASA mission and using it for the methane work.”
This new cloud near Carlsbad vented more than 40,300 pounds of methane per hour.
In addition to the image, NASA documented an hour-long release rate at the site that was far greater than the amount reported for all of 2022 at the nearest drill site. “OCD immediately contacted NASA for more information and began investigating a possible major release as soon as the information became available,” said Sidney Hill, spokesman for the Department of Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources, operating under the OCD is. He said that the day after receiving the NASA press release, OCD inspectors were on site examining the area in the photo.
Invisible and poisonous in New Mexico
That clue and the colorful image from Karlovy Vary were the first mentions of methane on the project’s website, but the discovery of the climate-warming gas wasn’t entirely unexpected. The EMIT instrument on the ISS is an updated version of a similar project that has been mapping methane emissions in the Permian Basin in recent years.
Thorpe said that earlier project defined places like those near Carlsbad as “super emitters” because of the phenomenal amounts of methane they release.
On those previous flights, he said, they detected emissions from wells and other equipment ranging from 22 to 44,000 pounds of methane per hour. The upper end of this range were the “super emitters”.
This new cloud near Carlsbad vented more than 40,300 pounds of methane per hour. Thorpe said, “We can confidently say that these are large emissions and they belong to this ‘super emitter’ class.” This class accounts for a small percentage of the total number of emission sites, but collectively their huge amounts account for 40% contributes up to 50% to methane emissions for a given area, he said.
“OCD understands that the NASA images indicate the point of estimated highest concentration at the time the image was taken, but do not necessarily identify the specific source,” Hill said. “OCD checked the entire area around the cloud. OCD is still reviewing the results of its on-site investigation.”
Overlay of NASA image with OCD’s online oil and gas map shows the highest concentration of methane at Harroun Com #001, a well operated by Marathon Oil. Thorpe said the reading was taken “in the July-August period” but he couldn’t pinpoint the exact date because guidelines violate the release of individual data points (like a single emission) before the release of an entire dataset.
Last year, OCD introduced new statewide venting and flaring regulations to reduce the industry’s natural gas emissions to less than 2% of total production emissions by 2026, so what arrives at a pipeline matches what comes out of the well comes out.
Failing to report an emission like the one in the NASA image can result in fines of up to $2,500 a day, according to Hill.
Karina Brooks, a communications manager at Marathon Oil, said via email: “Based on our initial review of the data, including our wells in the area, it does not appear that our operations are the source(s) of methane emissions reflected in the photo .”
Thorpe said high concentrations of methane like that at the center of the plume point to the source of a leak, but “other than that there’s a bit of ambiguity.” The pixel size of the instrument’s camera captures squares 60 feet in diameter, so smaller locations cannot be distinguished. But the closest well or other equipment is over 2,200 feet from the cloud’s hot spot and the Marathon well.
The NASA-documented release rate of 40,300 pounds of methane per hour is 5% higher than the total venting reported to the state from Marathon’s well for all of 2022 to date. That’s an amount roughly equivalent to the greenhouse gas emissions of 100 cars driven for a year, released into the atmosphere every hour.
“We will be working with the state agency to investigate the matter, which limits our ability to deal with it [this] Check out the details at this point,” Brooks said.
Let us know what you think…
Thorpe said the image is a snapshot due to the nature of the ISS’s orbit, which is offset by several degrees each time it races around the globe. It orbits the earth about 16 times a day, but because of the offset, it takes three days to fly over the same spot.
“We don’t know if it has emitted before. We don’t know if it emitted afterwards. But we know we caught an emission at that location,” he said.
“I find it frightening that it’s so close,” said Kayley Shoup, an organizer with environmental and community group Citizens Caring for the Future. She lives in Karlovy Vary and is concerned about the associated gases escaping with methane, contributing to ozone and smog in the area and causing breathing problems.
GET THE TOMORROW HEADLINES IN YOUR INBOX
The EPA has indicated it may soon make the Permian Basin an ozone depletion zone under the Clean Air Act, which would require tighter controls on emissions from oil and gas fields.
Hill said OCD is investigating the release to find the source but could not comment further on a case that is still under investigation.
And maybe OCD should prepare for similar investigations in the future. Thorpe said methane information from EMIT and other dedicated methane-tracking satellites, due to be launched over the next two years, will greatly improve the world’s ability to find, locate and measure oil and gas methane emissions. “There will be more examples and shared more often,” he said.
“I think it’s in everyone’s best interest to know about it,” he said. “You give people data and hopefully they will use it appropriately.”
Thorpe said JPL plans to launch a public data portal with all mission data early next year. Shoup said she’s excited to have a new online resource to document large methane emissions in her backyard. “This is really such wonderful news,” she said.

Northeast Snowstorm Hits Area Hard
A winter storm expected to produce some of the highest snowfall levels on record began to leave a dusting on the ground in New York City, the Tri-State Area and New England on the afternoon of Monday, Jan. 26. The current predictions indicate a steady, unspectacular stream of snow through the rest of the day, with snowfall picking up overnight into Jan. 27 and potentially leaving more than 36 inches of snow on the ground in some areas. The size of the weather system is itself remarkable, as it's predicted to impact an area ranging from northern Maine south through most of New Jersey, including all points in between. Major cities in the area, from Bangor, Maine to Providence, Rhode Island and Newark, New Jersey are all preparing for a major storm that could have a serious impact on personal safety and business operations.
"The National Weather Service called the weather system both historic and life threatening."
Travel will be difficult if not impossible
CNN reported that the governors of Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York had all taken measures to keep residents safe and reduce the potential harm of the situation. The two New England states both have driving bans in place for the night of Jan. 26, while New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo declared a state of emergency and said he is considering a travel ban as well. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio instituted a city-wide driving restriction for all privately owned vehicles starting late Monday.
Reaction is likely warranted
Although the true severity of the storm won't be known until it passes over the area or dissipates, predictions from agencies careful in language use and threat assessment such as the National Weather Service are dire. CNN said that agency called the weather system both historic and life threatening. The wide area of impact as well as the heavily populated nature of that region are both factors in the response thus far to the storm.
Business, school and road closures
Reuters pointed out the various travel and parking bans as an attempt to limit
the chance of injuries and death. Businesses in the busy Northeast corridor are less than happy about the plans, but the need for safety is obvious and paramount. Companies that are only now planning for the effects of the storm are at a disadvantage as compared to those with the right risk identification tools in place. With local and international travel likely to become a short-term impossibility, organizations that don't have contingency plans in place or haven't been able to enact those plans will suffer during the days it takes to dig out afterward.

- The danger of snowmelt, and additional flooding, remains great as storms cause high temperatures in the region.
- Even though rains reduced in the drenched region, flood alerts continue in place for various parts of southwest B.C.
Rains reduced but flood watch remains in BC:
British Columbia is placed to start reconstructing from widespread flooding and mudslides after the last of three main storms eased off on Wednesday evening, but flood alerts continue in place for extended parts of the region.
Communities hammered by floods, including the Fraser Valley and the Nicola Valley east of Vancouver, continue under a flood alert due to large river levels and raised temperatures making the danger of snowmelt.
A flood watch means river levels are increasing and may pass their banks and flood nearby regions. A flood warning means river levels have passed or will pass their banks, and nearby areas will flood as a consequence.
Various highways also continue shut throughout the region, including Highway 99 within Lillooet and Pemberton due to a mudslide, as well as Highway 3 east of Princeton, necessary for joining Metro Vancouver and the remainder of Canada.
A mudslide on Canadian Pacific train tracks also began to West Coast Express commuter trains being called off, with additional closings on Thursday morning due to a mudslide on the tracks.
The trains were fixed to permit travel within downtown Vancouver and the community of Mission in the Fraser Valley, which has announced evacuation plans due to floodwaters from the nearby Hatzic Lake.
Farther down the Fraser Valley, the city of Abbotsford is seeing the forecast as snowmelt from the nearby Mt. Baker would start to water flowing into the city from over the U.S. border.
The storm systems that caused rain to many of southwest B.C. across the previous two weeks of November also caused elevated temperatures, according to meteorologists.


Quote: For those of us in Pinellas County... Do you think that the affects will be similar to Frances & Jeanne last year? Better or worse?
I do not believe that Wilma will be as bad for Pinellas County as Frances or Jeanne was, unless the storm moves farther north than expected. As of now, we are probably looking at tropical storm force gusts (45-55mph), but nothing more. If you recall, Jeanne and Frances both generated a strong onshore NW wind on the Pinellas coast that--because of unimpeded flow over the Gulf--gave us sustained TS winds with some hurricane force gusts during Jeanne on the immediate coast. When Wilma is at its closest, our winds will be from the east over land, thus we will not get a severe "backlash" on the coast. This, coupled with the fact that we will be on the weaker northern side of the storm, will probably result in only sustained winds around 30-35 mph with gusts to TS force. Of course, we still should be preparing for a direct hit , because we are still within the cone of uncertainty. Most likely, however, Wilma will come in a bit south of us...how far south remains to be seen.

SEATTLE (AP) — Schools preemptively closed, crews salted down streets and more than two dozen flights into two Pacific Northwest cities were canceled as the region prepared for a potentially major snowstorm on Wednesday.
Forecasts called for about 3 to 5 inches of snow in the Seattle metropolitan area, with heavier amounts expected in communities along the Interstate 5 corridor south of the city. The city's schools canceled classes, as did their counterparts in other western Washington cities such as Tacoma, Olympia and Bellingham.
Alaska Airlines announced late Tuesday that it canceled 38 flights into and out of Seattle and Portland, Ore. The airline was waiving rebooking fees for passengers traveling Tuesday through Thursday in those cities.
Conditions on the roads were expected to be dangerous as the storm was forecast to begin dumping snow on the area just before the morning rush hour.
"Wednesday is going to be a good day to stay at home," said Brad Colman, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Seattle. "The road is going to be treacherous."
Several inches of snow have the potential to paralyze the city of Seattle, which owns relatively few snowplows. Its drivers are mostly inexperienced with driving in snow or ice.
Several downtown hotels reported all their rooms were booked. Elsewhere, shoppers stocked up on groceries.
In Everett, north of Seattle, police reported a thief broke into an Everett School District parking lot early Tuesday and drove off in an old pickup equipped with a snow plow. The faded yellow truck had the snow plow in front and a full hopper of sand in the back, Sgt. Robert Goetz said.
Snow has been falling steadily in parts of western Washington and Oregon since the weekend, but Weather Service meteorologists said the biggest amounts could be on the way.
Bec Thomas, who lives on Camano Island north of Seattle, stocked up on bottled water and food. As her children built snowmen, made snow angels and sledded in nearly a foot of fresh snow on Tuesday, she made food that could be reheated on her wood stove.
The last snowstorm knocked out her power for a week.
"We take it very seriously," said Thomas, a fine arts photographer. "We'll probably be snowed in until Thursday."
Forecasters said 3 to 6 inches of new snow could fall in the Olympia area and 1 to 2 inches north of Seattle. The Cascade Mountains could see 1 to 3 feet of new snow through late Wednesday, and officials warned of high avalanche danger there.
In eastern Washington, forecasters predicted that about 6 inches of snow could fall on Spokane by late Wednesday with several more inches falling Thursday. The Pullman area could see as much as 12 inches of new snow by Wednesday night.
State troopers advised motorists to be prepared.
"The No. 1 thing is to drive for the road conditions," Trooper Keith Leary said. "People need to slow down, take their time. If they're not prepared, don't get out on the roadways."
John Lee, a Mill Creek graphic designer decided to work from home Tuesday rather than face a snowy commute into Seattle, said it was "a bit exciting" because it was the first snow of the season.
But he added: "I hope it doesn't escalate to something bigger."
AP Writer Rachel La Corte in Olympia and Donna Blankinship in Seattle contributed to this report.


BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — Whether it’s just a weather forecast or an atmospheric political statement remains to be seen, but Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach are in for a few days of significant wind and somewhat cooler temperatures.
