Predictions for 2014 – 2019: Weather #17

We still have extremely difficult weather hitting the U. S., but there will be an end to it over the next few weeks and months (depending on locations) as is expected.

Texas generally will start seeing warmer temperatures and the end of the freezing temps by the 3rd and 4th weeks of February.  By this time, the temperatures will slowly start climbing back up, with only one last cold spell happening after warmer spring temperatures have established themselves.

Southeast U.S. will see the last of the cold at the turn of Feb./Mar.

The Northeast will see continued deep cold weather on into April.

The North Central states will have deep cold weather through to the middle of April.

The Pacific Northwest will begin their spring temperatures mid-March.

***The Winters of the Future***

The winters of 2015 and 2016 will be much milder for the U.S., but 2017 will return with winter weather almost as extreme and bad as 2014 has been – almost.  After that, 2018 will be average to milder again.

California

California’s drought will continue through 2015 and 2016, but 2016 will see some rain.  2017 will bring more rain for California than 2016 before it enters into 2018 and 2019 which will see the return of the drought again.

The drought over the next 5 years (excluding 2017) will also see a somewhat noticeable population exodus from California moving eastward – mostly towards Colorado, New Mexico and further east, with some to Utah.

The California drought will be worse in the southern part of the state during this time.  Central California and its farming industry will struggle to get what water it can.  Southern California’s water dilemmas will worsen during 2015 and 2016, with some relief during 2017.

Q & A

In which countries do you see the food shortages being most severe?

In this decade, worldwide, we’ll see the current shortages in Africa and Asia continuing, and we’ll see movement towards shortages caused by drought in North America & Europe.  I state it this way because growers ship their food products across country borders.  The food shortages will be felt at the continent level in some areas.

This will be a slow process and not really recognized as being anything but a natural progression from the past and current weather extremes that bring about drought vs. floods.

However, I’m not saying that the whole Earth will have food shortages.  There will be areas that are still abundant with food, but at increasing prices.

As I will always say, local production of food is the most effective way of facing this problem.  Relying on the giant factory farms to produce the food is a great way to avoid healthier foods.  Food that must travel more than several hundred miles has a different energy than the home energy.  This can be felt by those who can sense or feel energy.  Still, if a person is hungry, it doesn’t matter where the food comes from as long as it comes.

When you say you see an ‘event’ happening in 2015 and it’s man made and economic, do you mean a stock market crash? If it is, will it be global or isolated in a certain area?

It is not a stock market crash, which actually cannot happen as it did in 1929, because of laws and precautions put in place to stop a crash in progress if it began.  Downturns, yes, but crash, no.

The event will begin in an isolated area and spread to have global effects.  I think what I see is that it will begin at the beginning of the summer of 2015, or signs of it happening beginning in the summer, but will have a culmination and highest impact in August, 2015.  The impact on the economy will be seen as time progresses.  I’ll continue to look at this and begin posting about it in 2014.

At one time on this planet, there were creatures much larger than us who probably ate a lot more (of course I mean the dinosaurs). So why won’t the earth have enough food to feed everybody? Will the GMO foods that Monsanto is pushing have anything to do with it? Will organic food prevail?

Currently, people choose what to eat based on many socioeconomic factors.   This means that there are many “tastes” as to what people want to eat and are willing to eat.   People’s different tastes will always be varied in quality, ingredients, price, etc.  This means there will continue to be a market for the variety of “foods” that exist even like today.  As today, so tomorrow.  Some will choose convenience.  Some will choose cheap.  Some will choose healthy, etc.  Organic food will be available for those willing to buy it.  Non-organic food will be available for those willing to buy it.  If people buy it, others will supply it.  What we will see is more of an effort to try to curb the food wasting but even this is done voluntarily.  The most impact on people will be the price of food going up.  And another opportunity to say it – local food production – including personal gardening – is a tremendous solution for these problems and will become more prevalent as people recognize this.

And in all of this, remember, by the 2040’s we’ll have reached in the neighborhood of 8.5 billion people on the planet.  I’m not seeing it ever get above 9 billion – ever.

There are people who believe in a Christ figure – they call him Maitreya – and that he has manifested himself on earth and is waiting for a period when people are ‘ready’ to receive him.

They say his message is one of sharing.

What do you see in this? It strikes me as similar to the extraterrestrial visitors in nature and I wonder if these are related in any way.

There are also many other figures that yet others believe to be the Christ figure.   Christ’s message wasn’t to go “out” looking for the Christ, but rather go “within” looking for the Christ – always the Christ within – in the heart and higher mind – listening to the still, small voice within.

His message also, with regards to whomever may claim they are from “Higher sources”, – you will know them by the fruits of the spirit which they demonstrate – not walking on water, or other physical miracles, but sincere loving kindness, patience, mercy, forgiveness, tolerance, true understanding, courage, a sense of humor, cooperation, faith, and more.

Do you think that gas prices will still be high given that we now have lots of wells producing natural gas and oil?

If by high, you mean 2013 prices, then, unfortunately, yes, the gas prices will remain high, because of the growing demand for oil and gas around the world.  It is the demand, rather than the supply that influences prices, as well as how oil and gas are bought and sold on the market.  Oil and its byproducts are used in the creation of hundreds of thousands of products of many kinds.  Even if all the cars in the world were electric, oil would still be in high demand.  We can deal with this draw on our pocketbooks on an individual level, but worldwide, we won’t see prices drop much – of course, there will be some price drops at times, but not very far drops.

We have drought conditions here in Southern California. How long do you see this lasting? Will we have an unusually hot summer this year in SoCAL? The weather has been so warm that we have early spring like conditions – plants are flowering all over the place.

I see the drought in Southern California lasting at least 5 more years.  I do wish I saw better than that, but I see this.  Prayer and meditation can have a healing and balancing effect on weather patterns.  The more prayer, the more balancing.  Praying is like rowing a boat to another location – the more people rowing, the faster one gets there.  If they give up rowing before they arrive, they’ll never get there.  If they only have their hands on the oars and aren’t putting their hearts into it, they’re not doing anything.

This new energy source sounds like an answered prayer for all the people of the world who are lacking resources – water, energy, etc. Will this bring about better crops and more water (through desalination – a usually expensive process)? Will it be decentralized or will it be able to be a little unit of energy for each dwelling? And will it be a lot less expensive and dangerous than nuclear energy?

Don’t misunderstand what I’m trying to mention.  While the beginning of the process for bringing forth this new energy has indeed begun – and by beginning, I mean, the formulation of theories that would eventually contribute to it’s manifestation and eventual useability – the process is a long ways away.  We will indeed have different energies at our disposal by the end of this century.  But, obviously, they won’t come on their own.

First of all, we have many paths before us as a nation, as a planet, and as a species.  Which path we take depends on our own efforts at spiritual levels, mental levels, financial levels, scientific levels, emotional levels and physical levels.  We can just as easily miss the path of bringing forth this energy by the choices we make.  This new energy can be put on the back burner and forgotten.  This act has been done before by us humans.

Bringing it forth is not set in rock, but there will be commercial efforts to bring it forth.  It also will be hidden to many during its development because of theft reasons.

Now to answer your questions.  It could become an answer to our prayers.  The impact can potentially bring down pollution levels including water pollution levels.  It would allow the waters and air to rebalance and cleanse.  This process would be several decades in the manifestation of this result.

It can be used for many purposes which will depend only on ingenuity and imagination.  Right now, I see it having potential for both centralized and individual units.  The individual units of generation of useable energy being portable units like gas generators are portable today.  Larger units would be able to serve larger groups.  There would be a need for some new type of commercial processes for those suppliers to make money from it.  The demand for it would drive its manufacturing.

Nuclear energy will be with us on into the next century.

Radiation from Japan

Many are talking about future disasters, including radioactive fallout from Japan.  I’m not seeing radioactive fallout from Japan being the bear others are saying it is or will be.  If you look back, though, on my blogs, I do see radiation high in the atmosphere.  However, I don’t see the amount in the atmosphere causing widespread harm to people in the US.  Those few at very high sea levels – above 9000 ft, will get some of the radiation, but again, the amount is not at a level that would cause widespread harm.  In the US, I see more fear than reality regarding people who will come into harm from radiation, and then it’s exacerbated – the people made vulnerable – from the high altitude and the sun’s effects.  The amounts will be measurable, but the harm to U.S. citizens will be negligible.

I see some of the western Pacific waters around Japan being harmed by the radioactivity, but I also see this being dissipated by the wide oceanic expanse eventually.  Will this harm the waters off Japan?  Yes, and it already has.  But, this part of the mess does have the ocean’s size helping it dissipate.  It will eventually be resolved.

Still, I will also admit that it’s prudent to stay alert to potential harm.

Predictions for 2014: Weather #16

When this winter is behind us, (end of February, 2014) I will give what I see for the winter and summer weather in the years ahead, especially what I see for the rest of this decade.

I’m taking it one winter at a time right now.  What is ahead is not all bad, but some is and being forewarned is being forearmed.   The pendulum swings in both directions and includes normalcy plus great extremes.  Global warming is real and there will be more evidence of it and more witness to it.

We can think that our own efforts to help bring about change are too small and therefore not worth doing.  Or we can think that this is just a cycle and will go away.  Both of these ways of thinking are what will change, because both are false and will be shown to be so – especially in our generation’s lifetime.  We have gone beyond the point of our generation seeing a return to “normal”.  We will not see it in our own personal lifetime.

We’re not alone with regards to effort.   Christ is not sitting on His hands or twiddling his thumbs.   Just remember, Christ also must work through our own hearts and minds.  “Here I am, I stand at the door [of our hearts and minds] and knock.  If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.” Revelations 3:20.

Predictions for 2014: Weather #15

“I would love to receive another update on cities around Denver.” Tee Meyer

Today – right now, January 6-7, 2014, is a good example of what all of Colorado and the Midwest will be experiencing throughout January.  Expect some small breaks between fronts, but what you’re experiencing now, will continue.

In February, expect temperatures to drop just a bit more than January’s will have been and stay longer with no breaks until after mid-February.

This is for all of Colorado, and not just around Denver.

“anything specific for the northeast?” Ed

What I see happening in Colorado will be equaled in the New England states.  The impact is to be weighed against the ability to ride out the severity of the weather, which the Northeast has practice with.

Select the “Weather” category in the right column to pull up the articles about the Winter 2014 predictions – that is now here upon us.

This winter will be remembered, not just for the severity but because there will be fatalities from the severity of the cold.

Predictions for 2014: Winter #14

What do you see for Ohio during winter 2014 (particularly the Cincinnati area)? Thank you for all that you do.  (Curious)

The people of this area are also going to have one of the worst winters they’ve seen.  January is here, and we’re starting the entrance into the worst of it.   For Cincinnati, expect more of the same of these types of Arctic fronts to come through.  Several of them in January.  Colder temperatures will be all through January.  As hard as it is to believe, though, February will be even worse.  For Cincinnati and all of Ohio and that region of states, expect blizzards almost continuously for the first 16-24 days of February (Feb. 1 or 2, to Feb. 23 or 24).   The cold weather will continue for the people of Ohio on throughout all February, but the last week of Feb. Ohioans will see the worst of it behind them.  Some raising of temperatures will come as March comes but it will be slow and the winter temperatures will be around until the 2nd week of March.  Spring temperatures will come, rising, as normal, in the 2nd half of March, but I’m seeing a late cold spell happening in the 1st half of the month of April.

Expect to see food prices at the grocery stores to start rising by mid-February and the steadily increase by the time March arrives.

This past summer was beyond average here in Germany and I’m wondering if the heat will continue to be extreme this year in 2014. I know you’ve been speaking of the US, but do you see anything for Germany? (My Muted Voice)

I see a normal winter through to the end of March.  With the mid-April entrance of warmer temperatures, I see only a small amount of rain.  I see some rain in April but going into May and June, the water Germany needs will come from the melting mountain snow.   At the moment I’m seeing: (this could change) by the time July and August arrive, Germany will have near-drought conditions with extremely low amounts of rain in June to no rain during July through to October.  During these few months, what rain comes will be negligible and only sprinkling.
The temperatures during May – October in Germany will be higher than average, but not as bad as 2013’s summer’s temperatures.  It’s the drought that will hurt most.

For several years, Germany’s weather will be erratic with wide swings.  This goes for all of Europe.  There will be pendulum swings with almost all the regions/countries.  The abnormal weather patterns are planet-wide.  And as a pendulum swings, there will be times of “normal” weather, but only as the pendulum is swinging back the other direction, if you know what I mean.  This means that the potential for Germany to have a strange 2015 winter/spring is present.

USA experiencing lots of snow and freezing temps. You are right on! (Kathy)

I’m glad I can help.  Remember that taking steps to be able to handle this weather is what these predictions are for.   And remember – when considering what to do to prepare, we also need to consider what we may be able to do to help others during this time.  Cooperation, contribution, and community are three things that are always worth the effort.

Winter 2014: 13 – The Power within People

I’m going to take a hit on this one, but I’m putting it up anyway.

As time progresses, and as many, many people are becoming aware of the challenging winter weather as well as the challenging issues for the planet Earth, there are many that are praying and meditating for this Earth.   I’m seeing this very high light energy having an effect on the Earth.

This energy is like a Light bath that works to help somewhat with efforts to turn around the destructive direction  of many of our living patterns.  Slow and steady wins the race, but the race is long and will not end soon.  The Light bath affects lower vibration energies that contains lower energy acts – acts that are manifested with hatred, selfishness, self-centeredness, fear, etc. and all these bring into the world.  The Light bath affects the energies on the planet because the Light bath is also energy of a much higher vibration.  As such, it affects the lower vibrations like a high tone tuning fork affects a low tone tuning fork.

This Light bath dissolves or balances energy seeking avenues to manifest.  It succeeds in diminishing the manifestation of lower vibration caused physical events.   (Again, by lower vibration events, I’m meaning events manifested with hatred as their motivation, fear or selfishness as their motivation, or as their motivation self-centeredness, bitterness, etc.)

This is happening with some – not much – but some of the weather of the Winter of 2014.  I don’t yet see the temperatures being affected, but rather the duration of the temperatures.  I’m seeing a small reduction in the number of days and nights that these difficult winter events will last.

When I began posting (in 2012) what I was seeing about the Winter of 2014, (all of them have titles referring to winter of 2014) I was seeing events much worse than what I see now.  I was seeing temperatures and durations much worse than what I see today.

The future is changeable.  If we believe that we can change the future and we then go ahead, changing the present, and in fact bringing about a changed future, who is it that is witness to the before and after pictures of the future?  Who is witness to what the future would have been like without effort vs. what the future would be like with effort?

It all depends on one thing – belief.  If we believe we can change our lives, and we take steps to do that, we are our own witness to the changed direction.

Can anyone say that the future would have been that way anyway, even without effort and steps?  Sure, people can and do say anything and everything all the time.  But, only those that believe they can change their life, then put forth effort to change their life, and then take steps to manifest change in their life can be a witness to their own different paths.

As humans, we believe that we can accomplish many, many things.  This belief leads us to put forth the effort and take the steps to accomplish these many, many things.  And step one is always ‘believe’.

It is here for all of us to “Entertain the idea that we can change our future.”  Then see what you can do with that.

The Infinite Archive

There is an actual internet archive that exists and is being compiled that archives every webpage and every past version of webpages in existence.  The purpose is to create a database of everything ever created on the planet.  Awesome, isn’t it.  Huge, too.  Right?

There is another archive in existence that holds even more information.  The Akashic records hold every thought, every emotion, every belief, every action, every everything of an entire lifetime.  And then it also holds each soul’s lifetime after lifetime, after lifetimes.  And then it holds everything in between lives, and it holds a soul’s existence before it ever entered into the earth plane, and it holds all the previous existences in other planes and other planets, … and all those thoughts, and feelings, and beliefs, and learning and actions.  And it holds all the potentials, all the choices, and all the other dimensions.  Even more awesome, and even more huge.  Right?

Then, there is the archive in existence, that holds infinity.  It is the Consciousness of God… of which the Akashic records exists in, and if you’re wondering, which the Internet Archive exists in, also.

Infinity is the Consciousness of God.  The Consciousness of God is Infinity.  This Consciousness of God is aware of Everything within it, including everything in the Akashic Records and everything in the Internet Archive.  And everything in every superconscious and everything in every subconscious.

Infinite Consciousness is aware of Itself as Infinite Consciousness.  Therefore, all life and everything pertaining to it exists within this Infinite Consciousness, and therefore, Infinite Consciousness is aware of all life and everything pertaining to all life.

Within Infinite Consciousness lies Infinite Creativity and therefore Infinite Possibilities.  This is why Jesus said, “With God, all things are possible.”  Jesus just used 6 words to say it all.  (I used more.)

And remember in the Infinite Consciousness of God exists Infinite Understanding, Infinite Forgiveness, Infinite Patience, Infinite Mercy, Infinite Peace and, yes, Infinite Unending Love.

You knew that, right? :-)

FYI

If anyone has asked a question via the comments sections, and I haven’t answered it, please re-ask the question.  I may have missed one or two questions.

Weather 2014: 12-Alabama, Georgia, Southern California

Hi, first I shall say thanks for what you do. I feel and am somewhat prepared for (lack of a better term) the unknown so my question to you is what you see for the area between Birmingham and Atlanta whether it is weather related or not. Thanks, M.

It’s going to be cold. For both Alabama and Georgia, expect below average temperatures. I don’t see a lot of snow for either state, but I do see January reaching down into the ‘teens for Alabama, but around 10 degrees warmer in Georgia than Alabama. I see the first half of February being difficult for Alabama because the temperatures – I see them reaching down into single digits if not at least close. When was the last time a place in Alabama had 10 degree weather? Georgia on the whole will be warmer than Alabama because of their proximity to the Atlantic waters. Georgia, too, though will have difficult times for the reason I’ve stated – because the south is not designed for cold – it’s designed for heat. Both states need to prepare for the disaster of roads impassable, loss of electricity in some places, mostly rural, but a little in the cities, and broken water pipes.

What do you see for Southern California This winter? Hoping for rain. R.

Southern California: expect colder weather in January, but in February, So. Cal. will not get hit with the same freezing temperatures that the rest of the country will get. The Pacific Ocean has a big effect on Southern California’s weather. This will help keep the region warmer than the rest of the nation. I think the lowest it will get will be in the 40′s.

I’m not seeing much rain for the L.A. area and most of S. Cal., during January or February. Cloudy, yes, sprinkling, yes at some times, but rain, downpours? I don’t see much, yet. I’ll keep watching.

Winter 2014: #11 – Repairs During and After

I haven’t mentioned this before, but I am now.  During the winter of 2014, there will be damage done to structures, including roads, electricity, water lines, both inside and outside and possibly even some heating systems.   If you have any feeling or hunch that you may have to make repairs, get the materials and supplies early.

The reason: after the arctic weather goes through, and damage happens, there will be a huge run on plumbing and heating repair materials and supplies at the hardware stores.  The shelves will be emptied.  I’ve seen this happen personally and was absolutely amazed.  Hardware stores will NOT be able to replenish their shelves fast enough.   There will be a variety of problems and the hardware stores won’t be able to supply everything to everyone who has damage in whatever form.

I’m putting this here to give you a “head’s up”.   Have the most “vulnerable” materials before you need them.  If you end up not using them, you’ll know loved ones – friends, family and neighbors who were not so lucky and your foresight may be able to help them.

I’m also now advising people to avoid airline travel in the US, if at all possible – at least from around January 20 to February 17, 2014.  I’m seeing this being a time of high cancellations of flights because of weather.

Predictions for 2014: Winter #10

We’re already experiencing some of what the Winter of 2014 has in store.  There are colder than normal temperatures in many areas of the nation.  The purpose of this can help to give warning to what is yet to come.  Like a Tsunami that shows signs of an impending tidal wave, the cold weather we’re having can help to give us a “heads up” and be ready.

I see severe weather still hitting Central United States so hard that many will wonder if Nebraska still exists.   And again, preparation will be like those people who build houses along the coastlines – up on stilts.  Preparations save people from destruction and damage.  Sometimes, d&d cannot be avoided, but still if I’m going to have a house where it floods, I want my house up on stilts.  If I’m going to live where very severe winter weather hits, I want to have an environment/home/whatever is needed that will help me face the severity and come out the other end.

Weather 2014: 9 – California question

Another question from readers:

Can you please update your comments on California? You wrote a nice long entry in 2009. Can you revisit this topic? Also can you comment on the weather for the Central Valley including rain for 2014 in particular?

For 2014, the winter of 2014 will hit the southeastern quadrant of the state the hardest.  While there will be colder than normal temperatures for California, there seems to be some weather related severe problems in the eastern half of the lower half of California.  This is from snow in the mountains.  I see more snow than normal in the mountains of this region.   This will be finished by the 4th week of February – with things starting to be back to normal by about that time.  Roads closed, very little travel through the mountain areas – especially severe during the 1st weeks of February.

The rain in the Central Valley for 2014 in particular. . . I see less rain than normal.  The farms in the Central Valley will have intermittent sparse rain.  This will mostly be during the spring months.  Some rain mostly during the 2nd half of April and the 1st half of May but outside this time, it will be sparse.  What may help is that I don’t see scorching heat, either.  I see cooler temperatures – not cold, but cooler than normal during the “sparse rain” times.

With earthquakes, I don’t see anything higher than a 5.5 and that being in southern California.  I’m only seeing 4’s and less in Northern California.

There will be a big storm in the 1st 3 months of 2014 in Sacramento.  Not weather, but political.  Things will be “settled” for the most  part at the end of March.  There will be lots of “hot, dry wind”, torrential speeches and turbulent emotions.  The storm will spill over into Los Angeles and San Francisco with mostly the same arguments in both places.  The slow news days won’t come until mid-April.

For the actual weather in northern California, I see colder than normal temperatures during the winter of 2014, but nothing dangerously low that would cause problems for longer than 1 day.  Right now, in looking at the nation, I’m looking for the severest effects on the populace that are creating the most severe hardships.  That severity won’t really be happening in California except for what I mentioned above, which again is still milder than what is going to hit the rest of the nation.

I’m ready for questions.

Winter of 2014: Preparation

So, a friend asks me what should we do about our living situations in relation to to the weather turning bad.

First and foremost: preparation is always a good idea for any kind of potential hard times ahead.  Those that plan ahead, are like soldiers who train – they’re in a better position to face the challenges that can come forth.  God does not give us challenges without first giving us what is needed to face the challenges.  We are  here to grow our spiritual muscles, gain in understanding, learn to cooperate and build, strive to enrich our hearts and souls, and develop our relationships to God, to ourselves and to each other.

Let us strive to have faith in God, have faith in ourselves, and have faith in others.

Address several things:
health
habitat
heat
food
water
electricity

The Internet is a wealth of information for preparation for problems.  I won’t even try to duplicate it here.

Predictions for 2014: Winter #8

I’ve been quiet, because I’ve been watching and waiting to see.   It’s November and what I’m seeing and experiencing appears to fall in line with what I’ve been trying to warn about.

Ahead: In general across the nation, I see pockets of relief from severe winter weather during the 2nd week of December, then the end of December/beginning of January.  But, this is the nation as a whole.  Also I see a gradual decrease in the temperatures as winter continues – on thru January and culminating in the what I’ve said before and even deeper drop in temperatures during the 1st half of February.  For the most part, this is what winter is, and is normal for what we’re used to, but this year the relief from cold temperatures and winter storms will be less and less.  In other words, more storms will come through with less time in between.

In addition: in general, the temperatures will be lower than average temperatures, and so many new record low temps will be experienced.

In our favor:  I do see the few higher temps of the last few months, in addition to the prayers of people, help to shrink the length of time that the severest of the severe will last.  It won’t end the severity, but it has helped to shrink the time – mostly during February.

So, what I’ve been seeing is a significantly hard winter on the whole.  It will be noticeable.

Go back and read the other blogs for a more detailed account of specific areas.

The November weather for the nation has been an effort to help us get ready – to be ready because the worst is yet to come.
