ups.com: Anchorage Daily News: October 10, 2006 "More than 100 miles of two Southcentral Alaska highways are currently closed because of flooding and mudslides wrought by heavy rains." ... "The National Weather Service reported that 9 inches of rain had fallen in Seward between noon Sunday and 5 p.m. Monday. Tom Dang of the National Weather Service said the low pressure system that caused the storm moved in on the jet stream from the Aleutian Islands, pulling in tropical moisture that had welled there. ...

Is. Not. Weird. Weather. It is the normal consequences of causal conditions which preceeded the event and the normal laws of physics. In late September through early October a rapid succession of tropical cyclones formed in the trpoical waters east of the Philippines: Category 4 Typhoon Xansane, Tropical Storms Bebinca, Rumbia, and Soulik. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timelin...typhoon_season Of the four cyclones, Bebinca contributed the majority of the unspent force to Alaska. Bebinca was a unique event which I highlighted with several webpages: http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Bebinca/Bebinca_01.html http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Bebinca/ioke...a_compare.html It falls into a pattern of similar weather patterns documented previously: http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Arctic_Ice_Melt.html http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Mystery_Solv...ry_Solved.html http://ecosyn.us/1/temp_sep_06/IOKE_IR_Funktops.html http://ecosyn.us/1/temp_sep_06/IR_WEUS.html The summary version of the process is described thus: Excessive Global Warming heat is being accumulated on the far western equatorial Pacific. A rapid-fire succession of tropical cyclones is being spawned as a consequence. The storms airlift vast quantities of tropical moisture at equatorial temperatures which are engaged for a time in the cyclones. Not all of the moisture and heat energy is spent when the cyclone can no longer function as a named navigational menace. While the storms drop off the face of the radars due to their migration into unpopulated areas, they still continue to possess wind-kinetic and rain-heat energy. IOKE was a category 5 hurricane which "dissipated" north of the Japanese Islands, yet transported force to the Bering Sea in Alaska to cause notable erosion damages. http://snipurl.com/ysiw GOOGLE Results 1 - 20 of 20 for IOKE Bering erosion. IOKE was only one of a string of similar tropical blasts crossing Alaska, and the entry of the heat masses across Alaska was documented in the links about the ice melt mystery in the Bearfort Sea north of Alaska. http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Arctic_Ice_Melt.html http://ecosyn.us/Temp_4/Mystery_Solv...ry_Solved.html Category 5 Typhoon Yagi made a similar trek last month and passed on a straight-line great circle route NE from Japan through British Columbia and SE down into Kentucky and Tennessee where it spawned 17 tornadoes one day and 37 more the following day. In short, the satellite records conclusively prove that the long-distance "teleconnections" between equatorial region cyclone event and thousands of miles away "wierd weather" events are fully explained by basic physicals principles. (1) A body in motion continues in motion. (2) Heat is transformed into kinetic energy of motion. (3) The warmer body contributes its heat energy to the cooler body. There is nothing unexpected going on. The law of conservation of energy explains that no heat was created in the Aleutian Islands that gravitated into Alaska. That heat had a cause, and the cause had a prior cause and the prior cause had prior causation. Due to an equipment failure I lost the data for October 6th, 2006 for the NOAA satellite views of the NW Pacific. So far as I know there are no NOAA archives saving this ephemeral data in archives, and my copies stored on my local hard drive might conceivabl;y be the only copies on Earth remaining. I do have 2-hourly rainbow views of NWPAC for the days before and after October 6th, and hourly data for the whole series including 10-06-2006 for the NE Pacific views. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/trop-epac.html http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/mtsat/nwpac/rb-l.jpg http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/west/nepac/rb-l.jpg I lost part of 10-04-2006 views from W. US... http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/west/weus/rb-l.jpg .... but have every-half-hour continuous before and after that. Apparantly all of the data for the N. Atlantic views are intact to observe anything crossing into Eastern Canada from Western Canada. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/natl/rb-l.jpg There is a half day gap for EAUS of October 3rd, and all of October 7th is missing. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/eaus/rb-l.jpg Despite the gaps, weather doesn't cross entire oceans or entire continents in a day, and all of the satellites overlap the neighbors to some extent, so it can be conclusively stated that Bebinca caused the Alaska Pipeline shutdown, the windstorms and dust and then the rain that made conductive mud on the electricity transmission line insulators which caused the outages. The lack of snowcover that caused the dust to blow in the first place has been traced back to IOKE and friends. With my satellite archives I can trace more than half the tornadoes that occurred in the Continental USA this year, 2006, to the specific tropical sea that donated that causal heat energy in the first place. I can trace the flooding in Houston this summer to the waters of the coast of Acapulco, Mexico and can show their movements every half-hour from evaporation to precipitation. The weather actually is totally obedient to the laws of physics. There is no "weird weather", only weird paradigms about how weather comes to be. |

For now, suffice it to say that I think the occurrence of this event in Alaska was not an "accident." More broadly in regard to global warming's impact in Alaska, TWC did a feature on this a couple of years ago.

Rather old news. Pics of permafrost melting in Alaska were
in my geology texts 4 years ago. |
