A critical part of the sudden climate change scenario is that the oceans must warn enough to melt substantial amounts of polar ice. This will flood the polar oceans with fresh water, causing temperatures in these oceans to rise. This will weaken the fundamental currents that exchange heat across the planet, leading to the kind of weather upheavals predicted in The Coming Global Superstorm.

Sydney Levitus, chief of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations Ocean Climate Laboratory, the principal author of a new study that reveals that the oceans are indeed warming rapidly, sasd, “we’ve known that oceans could absorb heat…Now we see evidence that this is happening.”

What is probably the largest iceberg ever recorded has broken off of the Ross Ice Shelf in the Antarctic. The berg is roughly twice the size of the state of Delaware. The break has occurred during the latter part of the Antarctic summer. Because the Ross Ice Shelf is floating, the new iceberg will not raise sea levels. However, there are major glaciers behind the shelf, which, if they were to slide into the ocean, would result in a significant increase in sea levels of six inches to three feet. These increases would take place worldwide over a period of about sixty days and, in the worst case, would flood numerous islands and low-lying areas, including many that are heavily populated.read more

Unusually high winds swept across the San Gabriel valley in California on March 21 and much of Utah on March 20. The Utah winds were hurricane force, clocked at over 70 miles an hour, with gusts into the eighties. In California, they reached 79 miles an hour. Bill Adler of the National Weather Service in Utah described the windstorm as “one of the most significant we’ve ever had.” There was only one injury reported. Columbia, Utah resident Arvetta Satterfield said, “I’ve lived here for 53 years and I’ve never seen anything like this.” Extremely high winds have in recent years become a feature of life in the western US, as changing conditions in the Pacific spawn powerful storms in areas that are usually quiet.

Scientists at Scripps Institute of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, say that a study of long-term weather cyclesconfirms that the earth is presently in a period of rapid global warming. If this process continues, it is likely that ice melt will escalaterapidly, resulting in alterations of ocean currents that could bring about the type of sudden climate changes that the Whitley StrieberArt Bell book The Coming Global Superstorm warns about.
