9 thoughts on “How Lightning And Cyclones Are Changing The Weather

  1. The world is gonna get awhole lot scarier and its happening at an unprecedented rate weather people wanna believe it or not. Its because of OUR OWN ACTIONS. Its truly sad how we trashed our planet 😢

  2. Global warming is normal phenomenon, otherwise we would still be stuck in the last Ice Age Event, or would not of gone into one in the first palce.

    I believe that Earth's climate operates in long-term cycles, akin to the shorter seasonal cycles we observe here on Earth whilst orbiting our Sun. These long-term cycles, such as the 100,000-year Milankovitch Cycles, bring about significant changes over vast periods of time.

    While human activities can influence the current state of the climate, it will only be for this moment in time, our impact is limited to the immediate moment within these grand cycles. We can only make small, temporary changes rather than any major, lasting ones.

    The current fear is that climate change is being caused by the Industrial Revolution which only began around 1760. Given that it's currently 2025, that makes it approximately 265 years ago. So, any acceleration of the norm is only 1 x 265th of 100,000 at the very worse, caused by Human intervention.

    This perspective acknowledges the natural rhythms of Earth's climate changes in the orbiting of our Galaxy and that of its climate changes in the orbiting around other Galaxy Groups, Galaxy Clusters, Superclusters, Filaments and Walls, and the Observable Universe.

    the study of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). The CMB is the afterglow radiation left over from the Big Bang, and it provides a snapshot of the universe when it was just 380,000 years old.

    Here are some key points about temperature variations in the CMB:

    • Uniformity: The CMB is remarkably uniform across the sky, with a temperature of about 2.725 Kelvin. However, there are tiny fluctuations in temperature, on the order of one part in 100,000.

    • Anisotropies: These small temperature variations, or anisotropies, are incredibly important as they provide clues about the early universe's structure and composition. They are thought to be the seeds of all current structures in the universe, such as galaxies and galaxy clusters.

    • Dipole Anisotropy: One of the largest variations is the dipole anisotropy, which is caused by the motion of the Earth (and our solar system) relative to the rest frame of the CMB. This results in a temperature difference of about 0.0002 Kelvin between the "hot" and "cold" directions.

    • Higher Order Fluctuations: Beyond the dipole anisotropy, there are higher-order fluctuations that provide more detailed information about the universe's early conditions and the distribution of matter.

    Therefore:

    • Natural Climate Cycles: Earth's climate has always undergone natural cycles, such as the Ice Ages and Milankovitch Cycles, driven by changes in Earth's orbit and tilt. These cycles have resulted in significant climate variations over millions of years.

    • Seasons on Earth:

    • On Earth, the changing seasons are driven by the tilt of our planet's axis as it orbits the Sun. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year, resulting in the familiar patterns of winter, spring, summer, and fall.

    • Solar Cycle:

    • The Sun itself undergoes an approximately 11-year cycle, during which its magnetic polarity switches. This solar cycle influences solar activity, including sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections. These events can affect space weather and have minor impacts on Earth's climate.

    • Galactic Seasons:

    • Our solar system orbits within the Milky Way galaxy, which takes about 225-250 million years to complete one orbit. This journey through the galaxy exposes our solar system to varying interstellar environments, potentially influencing cosmic ray flux, which may have subtle effects on Earth's climate over long timescales.

    • Galactic Groups and Beyond:

    • Our galaxy is part of the Local Group, a collection of galaxies that are gravitationally bound and orbit around a common centre of mass. These galactic movements can influence the distribution of matter and dark matter, affecting the overall structure and dynamics of the group.

    • Moving up the scale, the Local Group is part of the Virgo Supercluster, which in turn is part of the larger Laniakea Supercluster. These superclusters are arranged in vast filaments and walls, with immense voids in between. The gravitational interactions between these structures shape the large-scale structure of the universe.

    • Observable Universe:

    • The observable universe encompasses all of these structures, and beyond it, there may be even more that we cannot see due to the finite speed of light and the universe's expansion. The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) provides a snapshot of the universe at a young age, showing temperature variations that helped seed the formation of galaxies and clusters.

    • By understanding these layers of cosmic structures and cycles, we can appreciate how Earth and its climate are influenced not only by local factors but also by broader cosmic phenomena. Our planet's seasons, the solar cycle, and our journey through the galaxy all contribute to the dynamic environment we live in.

    • Human Influence: While natural factors have always influenced Earth's climate, human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation are currently believed to be accelerating global warming at an unprecedented rate since the Industrial Revolution. This has led to higher levels of greenhouse gases and faster global temperature increases.

    • Normal Temperature and Rate of Warming: Determining a "normal" temperature for Earth is complex due to historical variations. The concern is not that Earth shouldn't warm at all, but rather the rate and magnitude of current warming, which some believe is driven by human activities.

    • Feedback Mechanisms and Tipping Points: Scientists study feedback mechanisms, such as ice-albedo feedback, to understand how warming can accelerate. Increased temperatures can lead to more water vapor in the atmosphere, creating a positive feedback loop. Limiting global warming to 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels is believed to avoid the most severe impacts. However, we must bear in mind that was caused by the Industrial Revolution which only began 265 years ago. So, any acceleration of the norm is only 1 x 265th of 100,000 at the very worse, if accelerated warming was caused by this.

    • Long-Term Natural Cycles: Earth's climate has naturally warmed and cooled over time, leading to repeated Ice Ages. While the current rapid warming is a concern, Earth's long-term natural cycles will continue. The goal is to mitigate human impact to avoid severe consequences in the short term, such as extreme weather events and rising sea levels.

    • Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB): The CMB provides insights into the early universe, showing uniform temperature with tiny fluctuations. These temperature variations give clues about the universe's structure and the seeds of current galaxies and clusters.

    • Balancing Natural Cycles and Human Influence: Managing our impact can help create a more stable environment for current and future generations, while acknowledging that natural cycles will continue. Mitigating human impact is therefore desirable to prevent the worst consequences of rapid climate change.

    • In essence, while we may not prevent the natural cycles from occurring, addressing human impact can only help maintain a stable and habitable planet in the present time and near future.

  3. Are we supposed to forget it has been reported for the past few years that the polar and Antarctic ice sheets have regained at least fifty years of losses, also this defies basic physics, no gas or particle can selectively let solar energy in and then block it from escaping, heavy carbon dioxide and particulate matter will plunge the earth into another ice age not heat it up.

  4. All these cold low latitude weather spells , simply come directly after a solor flair, just like volcanic and earthquake activity, it's the sun people !!!! Proven , proof , common knowledge to the
    un indoctrinated !! And all northeast weather is due to cycles, based on south pacific, nothing new , the bases of the farmers almanac

  5. Like the last ten years here in mid north Minnesota we haven't had the snow falls that we used to have. Last year in 2024 we didn't have more than a dusting of snow, this year we only had a few inches but it was very cold for a long time. It's definitely something going on.😊
