* Temperatures average 5-15 degrees below average this week.
* Next clipper arrives Thursday, potential for a couple of inches, but right now it doesn’t look as formidable as last Friday’s snow burst.
* Reinforcing surge of Arctic air arrives over the weekend. Arrival of this Yukon Express may set off a coating to 1/2″ of powder Saturday.
* Slight chance/opportunity for a brief thaw between December 15-17.The Definition Of “Holiday Spirit”. I have never seen anything in my life quite like this.
The Definition Of "Holiday Spirit". I have never seen anything in my life quite like this. People shopping at a Macy's in Philadelphia, suddenly Handel's Messiah begins to play and choruses begin to sing in angelic harmony. The end result is a remarkable display of public affection and outpouring - everyone is in the moment, contemplating the real meaning of the Christmas holiday. Why can't this happen in my mall? BTW, this YouTube clip has gone viral, nearly 6 million hits and counting.

Chemtrails. Urban Legend Or Valid Concern? I am not a conspiracy theorist. I believe men really did walk on the moon, and by now you probably know where I stand on the issue of climate change (I'm throwing my hat in with the 97% of peer-reviewed climate scientists around the world, thousands of them, who believe that greenhouse gases are largely responsible for a global warming trend in recent decades, and corresponding outbreaks of increasingly extreme weather). A friend loaned me a DVD and I approached the topic of chemtrails skeptically. But the more I watched, the more hard, empirical evidence was produced about an apparent spike in aluminum, barium and strontium levels on the ground, heavy metals that weren't there 10-20 years ago - I began to wonder if something really might be "up". The theory: either government agencies or rogue billionaires are experimenting in the stratosphere, spraying the upper levels of the atmosphere with tiny bits of "chaff", in an attempt to "geoengineer" climate change, literally cool the earth by spraying these heavy metals. We've all noticed those days when contrails seem to be far more numerous, where they crisscross the sky, forming a hazy, milkly appearance, a "dirty sky". I chalked it up to jet contrails, but now I'm taking a second look. The problem: alumuminum turns into aluminum oxide, which is toxic with potential neurological effects on the human brain. The possible spraying corresponds with huge increases in Alzheimers Disease and autism, and an increasing number of Americans are connecting the dots, wondering if there is a connection. I don't pretend to have the answer. But before you dismiss this outright, you might want to check out a few links, even watch the documentary.
I watched the 97 minute documentary, "What In The World Are They Spraying?", produced by G. Edward Griffin, Michael Murphy and Paul Wittenberger, and it opened my eyes. From the web site: "By now everyone has seen crisscrossing streaks of white clouds trailing behind jet aircraft, stretching from horizon to horizon, eventually turning the sky into a murky haze. Our innate intelligence tells us these are not mere vapor trails from jet engines, but no one yet has probed the qustions: WHO is doing this and WHY. With the release of this documentary, all of that has changed. Here is the story of a rapidly developing industry called Geo-engineering, driven by scientists, corporations, and governments intent on changing global climate, controlling the weather, and altering the chemical composition of soil and water – all supposedly for the betterment of mankind. Although official insist that these programs are only in the discussion phase, evidence is abundant that the have been underway since about 1990 – and the effect has been devastating on crops, wildlife, and human health. We are being sprayed with toxic substances without our consent and, to add insult to injury, they are lying to us about it. Do not watch this if you have high blood pressure." Again, I was skeptical/cynical going into this, but it's hard to argue with facts: aluminum levels in the snowpack at Mt. Shasta, California are 61 ppb (parts per billion) which is roughly 60 times higher than they should be. Phoenix is showing aluminum levels of 39,000 ppm (the number should be closer to 2 ppm). There are reports linking these increased levels of heavy metals to dying trees in the west (weakening the bark of coconut trees in Hawaii). Not sure if there's a link, but the documentary got me thinking. Again, I'm not a big "Area 51/Roswell UFO" conspiracy theorist, I don't think alien abductions are a big problem on the world stage. But I HAVE seen the odd, milky, "shredded-contrail" look to the sky, and there may be a real problem here. More background on "chemtrails" here. An 8 minute overview YouTube video focused on the chemtrail phenomenon is here. Generic jet contrails? Possibly. But the more I looked into this the more questions arose in my mind.
"What In The World Are They Spraying?" I found a link that has the entire doc here. It runs 97 minutes, and before you dismiss it out of hand as quackery or worse - take a few minutes and check it out. It is the most eye-opening thing you will see all month. Paranoia on a mass scale? Possibly. But people all around the world are seeing strange things in the sky, levels of aluminum, barium and other heavy metals have spiked in snow pack, soil and water samples. I'm not as quick to dismiss this as I was before watching the documentary. After all, we did spray in the past, attempting to modify weather. Cloud-seeing during the Vietnam War was common, trying to increase flooding over the Ho Chi Min Trail carrying supplies from the North Vietnamese. And then there was that whole "Agent Orange" thing. I hope there's nothing to this, but in the spirit of full disclosure I wanted to share it with you - let you reach your own conclusion.
