Coldest Winter In 40 Years?

From an email I received today:

INDICATIONS ARE THERE, ALREADY SNOWING IN SCANDINAVIA AND NORTHERN RUSSIA; UK NEAR FREEZING THIS WEEKEND

Hi,

Joe Bastardi of Accuweather, who is on TV frequently, is predicting a very cold winter based on the fact that both the Arctic and the Antarctic are amassing much more sea ice. The Arctic did not melt as much as it has been, and the Antarctic has been packing on the sea ice shelves. Now the ETs ... say that the north pole of the Earth has been facing the Sun more than usual this summer, bringing huge heat to the northern hemisphere while freezing off the southern hemisphere. They say that Planet X is moving toward us with its' north pole causing ours to bounce back and forth toward the Sun more than usual.

I don't know what to think personally, but I see lots of little signs. One is the common 2" fuzzy caterpillar we see at the end of the summer with black on both ends and brown fuzz in the middle. It is said that the width of the brown stripe indicates the severity of the winter. I started seeing those caterpillars last week, which are common in Maine and New England. The first three I saw had 1/2 inch of black, with one inch of brown in the middle. BUT today I saw one I have NEVER seen before: it was ALL brown, no black. That would mean it is going to be a bitterly cold winter with lots of snow! If I spot that one again, or others like it, I will have to take a photo.

Feel free to write me if you have any further thoughts or information. Usually at the end of the summer you hear a zzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzzzz from grasshoppers I guess. They say that on the day you first hear that, the first frost will be 6 weeks away. I heard it on August 1st and that would make the first frost September 15th. Usually here on the coast we do not get a hard freeze up until between Christmas and New Years. We have gotten snow as early as October and as late as May, but our usual snow season starts after Thanksgiving and ends the beginning of April. That is because being on the coast, the ocean makes the winter more temperate. Usually even if it snows in October or before Thanksgiving, it melts or isn't much.

We have just gone through the biggest heatwave here in Maine, over 90 degrees 5 days in a row, since July 1999. And next week is supposed to be 25 degrees or more colder. It seems hard to believe that we might be entering a major cold spell. I wonder what the Farmer's Almanac is going to say for 2011. It is interesting that Los Angeles had its coolest summer in years. They hardly broke 90 degrees at all.

  • The schools here in the mountains of southwest Virginia started a week and a half early this year. I think they know a hard winter is coming. Fall colors started showing up in early August and they were already starting to fall before the end of August.
  • My oldest daughter who refuses to even research or read anything about PX because she is only interested in "scientific proof" posted on Facebook today that Reno has only had a week or so of hot weather and that now it is acting like fall weather. She said "what's up with the weather?" My sister immediately posted, "Ask your mom, she can tell you." And then her sister (My middle daughter who believes) posted and said, "Or ask me, LOL!" Of course my oldest daughter did not respond, but at least the postings will make her think a little. I do believe we are in for a very hard winter, I have not read anything leading me to think that, it is simply a premonition I have.
  • I've thought about and have prepared for snow. By the END of this Cycle we believe we will be in the MOUNTAINS. There is also KATLA, in ICELAND. If history repeats, as it has 3 previous times. This will occur with-in the next 12 months.This alone could put the northern hemisphere into a year of WINTER and few CROPS will be grown. Cheryl thanks for posting all you do an allowing us to discuss very important information OPENLY. You know what, I mean by ALLOWING. JOHN
  • I think a big topic this winter will be the weather, undeniably bizarre weather, people will notice this and then they will talk with each other, maybe there will be a breakthrough at the grassroots level of people figuring out what is going on.
