**Thunderstorms over for Toronto, my dog can come out of hiding** She's jammed under a desk.

#physics #weather **Snowball Earth had a warm necklace**

**Geese not a chew toy** My dog loves to chase the geese off the park. Now, they have a weapon to fight back...

#physics #weather **Pattern continues** Extreme cold meets warmth. Thunderstorms over Toronto. We would normally start to have big Pacific plumes breaking up the Arctic cold air mass.

**That's Trump feeding the squirrel** Big jail time!

**So happy to be in Canada**

#physics #weather **Spencer plot is jagging** It's still hanging low. When we get a new El Nino, it will go up significantly, but most likely not higher than 2016. The physics does not show this happening, but the hopeful can watch for it.

**MrChat strikes again** Yuwanfrieswidat?

Yes, fully automated soon.

ps. this is the conventional view.

It has some implications. Perhaps El Nino is starting up....

**AAAH, don't look this up!** No link, and no explanation of the picture. However, it is a good comment on the state of the free press. Gwenyth would love it.

**Irony** I have my summer hut up there, but this is 'pie in the sky'. Mainly, because we have huge iron bands (minerals) in the rock. I've never had a drone using gps that didn't decide to take off. Now I got a drone with no gps. I think you need a 'next generation' of terrain mapping for drone delivery.

#physics #weather **North American pattern continues** Cold, clear air descends, warm air is driven up by a Pacific plume. A big collision in Arkansas. Looks to keep going for a while.

**Current AI boom**

Can't wait for the next AI thing.

**Next winter in Europe**

I give this prediction 80% because this year the Greenland channel was blocked by the Gulf Stream wagging up.

**Stormy and Trumpy Action Figures** Reenact the 'worst 90 seconds'! Anatomically correct, but you need a magnifying glass....

**AI image with his ears pinned back** Or maybe not. Sorry, couldn't help it.

#physics #weather **Extreme Weather** Looks like this pattern will stick all month. The intensity of the storm depends on the difference in temperature between hot and cold.

#physics #weather **Muddled winds** Nothing is clear, the Arctic air is breaking up. I now include 'boiler plate' on the explanation.

#physics #weather **Scientific Method** OK, a major disagreement on the philosophy of the SM. It is my understanding that the SM requires a fixed hypothesis, that follows the current thinking and all laws of physics.
You cast that hypothesis, like plate tectonics, and you wait for further data. The hypothesis stands or falls. The late J. Tuzo Wilson was a consultant to us, and he regaled us with stories of his constantly failing hypotheses. He enjoyed the process of failure, and then he got things right.
I have cast the hypothesis that ocean currents and convection dominate the weather, and I am waiting for it to fail. Then I will do another one. No sweat. No money involved, No personal glory.
The hypothesis is measured by the official world temperatures as determined by satellite. This has been a constant method since 1980. The world temperatures on these charts is going down.
I throw down the glove and wait. Many political organizations cannot take a failure of their position, and there are trillions of dollars at stake. I have nothing at stake.
There are other positions that are not SM. That is the 'Discovery Method' of adjusting explanations as new things are discovered. I have found it is good entertainment, but not useful.
