The 2011 season for noctilucent clouds (NLCs) is underway, and it is intensifying. Observers are now reporting electric-blue waves and filaments in the sunset skies of both Europe and North America. Last night, Bob Conzemius photographed a vivid display over Trout Lake, Minnesota, and--bonus--he caught some Northern Lights, too. Click on the image to set the scene in motion:
NLCs are a summertime phenomenon. In the upper atmosphere, 80+ km high at the edge of space itself, tiny ice crystals nucleate around microscopic meteoroids and other aerosols; when the crystals catch the rays of the setting sun, they glow electric blue. Ironically, these highest and coldest of clouds form during the warmest months on the ground.

Thousands of tiny threads floating on the winds across Sunbury prompted at least one call to the Australian UFO Research Network last week.
And while the explanation may not be from another world it still has a creepy crawly factor.
According to Melbourne Museum, an explosion in golden and garden orb weaver spider populations has led to an increase in hatchlings taking to the wind on silken threads.
Last week Sunbury resident Peter Tyrrell noticed the phenomenon while gardening.
"I happened to be in the back garden when I noticed thousands of spider webs in the sky," he said. "I'd never seen anything like it before."
About noon on Wednesday the sky was littered with the near-invisible strands that clung to trees and light poles carrying baby spiders.

High winds are propelling a devastating Arizona forest fire that has already grown into the third-largest in the state's history.
Smoke from the 225-square-mile covered a mountain vacation town in a blinding yellow fog yesterday and residents are now preparing to evacuate as the fire edges closer.
Strong winds have also blown smoke from the burning pine forest well into the nearby states of New Mexico and Colorado.

An electric storm lights up the sky on Sunday, June 5, after a volcano in the Caulle Cordon of southern Chile erupted violently, billowing smoke and ash high into the sky and prompting more than 3,500 people living nearby to evacuate.
An electric storm lights up the sky on Sunday, June 5, after a volcano in the Caulle Cordon of southern Chile erupted violently, billowing smoke and ash high into the sky and prompting more than 3,500 people living nearby to evacuate.
Flights in the region were canceled and more than 3,500 people stayed away from their homes near the volcano, which produced an eerie show of lightning dancing through its clouds of ash overnight.
Most of the residents in 22 settlements near the Puyehue-Cordon Caulle volcanic complex evacuated when the eruption began Saturday afternoon and were staying in government shelters or friends' homes. One group of 122 people were being moved from a shelter for fear that the eruption could cause flooding on the Nilahue River.
There were no reports of injuries.

Puyehue volcano erupts in southern Chile, June, 2011
Puyehue volcano erupts in southern Chile, June, 2011
"The Cordon Caulle (volcanic range) has entered an eruptive process, with an explosion resulting in a 10-kilometer-high gas column," Chilean state emergency office said.
The thing is, for some unknown reason, as of this writing, eight earthquakes near magnitude 5 have shook the earth near the Puyehue volcano. The problem is, the earthquakes are located 20 to 40 miles away from the eruption! Very Strange Indeed.
There's something brewing quite a distance from the eruption, but is quite obviously directly related. We're talking about enormous energies here.
More than 2,000 firefighters are combating the Wallow Fire that has consumed 144,000 acres in eastern Arizona, forced residents to flee a handful of communities and put others on the verge of evacuation.
In mid-afternoon Sunday, the Apache County Sheriff's Office said it has ordered the evacuation of the several subdivisions along Arizona 180 near the New Mexico state line and Arizona 191. It was not immediately clear how many residents or structures were involved in the evacuation of Escudilla Mountain Estates, Bonita, Dog Patch, and the H-V Ranch.
As the community of Greer stands ready on a pre-evacuation alert, crews fighting the Wallow Fire continued to fret about warnings of high winds and dry lightning for Sunday afternoon. Fire officials re-calibrated the fire size at 144,000 acres after earlier reports of 184,000 acres proved premature; they said the erroneous numbers may have included areas that fire crews deliberately burned back toward the main fire to rob it of fuel.
Windy, lightning conditions would likely ground aircraft battling the week-old blaze, which is now thought to have been sparked by an abandoned campfire, said Eric Nietzel, a spokesman with the Show Low Fire Department.

Comment: This wildfire is a week old. Here is a report of a possible meteor sighting in Northern Arizona around the same time as the start of the wildfire. Of course, it could be a coincidence, but how often do you hear a spokesman with the Fire Department reference meteors starting wildfires?

Troy Skarke talks about the moisture content of his soil at his field in Armstrong County east of Claude. Texas Panhandle residents are experiencing the region's worst drought since 1956, according to a state climatologist.
Troy Skarke talks about the moisture content of his soil at his field in Armstrong County east of Claude. Texas Panhandle residents are experiencing the region's worst drought since 1956, according to a state climatologist.
Mother Nature has sucked the Panhandle dry.
"We lost an inch of water Monday purely from evaporation," said Kent Satterwhite, general manager of the Canadian River Municipal Water Authority, referring to the water level of ever-shrinking Lake Meredith.
Out on the farm, it's the same tale.
Troy Skarke stood by a planter on his farm north of Claude ready to get sorghum seed in the ground Tuesday but was thwarted by dry earth.
"This needs to be running this week, but it won't be," he said.
Around the region, there is little green as though winter is still waiting to become spring, contrasting sharply with temperatures in the 90s and fierce south winds. Those are some of the obvious signs of not just a dry period but the "exceptional" drought the area is experiencing.

Moret falsely claims that HAARP causes earthquakes following the lead of Rosalie Bertell who seems to be unwilling to shed the limelight despite her no longer being an active researcher and just basically making things up. If you talk with Geology professors, you will quickly learn that it is impossible to use radio waves to cause earthquakes. It is possible to stimulate quakes by deep water injection on a fault line. Most of those quakes were not even perceptible and the largest were in the range of 4 on the Richter scale, which is barely perceptible when you are within a few miles of the epicenter. None of these quakes were in the great quake range of 7 or larger or even close to that. You can also do internet research and find this information out - I found that quakes were stimulated in Colorado and Germany using similar methodology of water injection from a deep well on a fault line.
Comment: HAARP is for mind control:

...nevertheless, we have reason to believe that earthquakes CAN be induced using space-based weapons:
Cassiopaean Experiment in Superluminal Communication, Session 30 January 2010
(L) I have a question. I've been waiting for somebody to ask it, but since nobody is going to ask it, I want to ask it: Was the Haiti earthquake an induced earthquake, or was it totally natural?
A: (Planchette swirls on board) INDUCED! Bet you didn't expect that, did you?!
Q: (L) Frankly, I didn't. Because I've already gone on record saying it wasn't. I just poo-pooed the whole idea as too far out there. (laughter) So now I've gotta...
(Perceval) Well, it was the Russians who said that, wasn't it?
A: No!
Q: (Perceval) Didn't you tell us the Russians reported that?
(L) The question I want to ask is, how do they induce earthquakes? (To Ark) How do you think they induce earthquakes? (Perceval) Space-based satellite
(Ark) Well, just search the internet! (laughter) Yeah, it's on the internet. You create special waves that go into the earth and propagate in the right direction...
(L) I don't believe it. They don't have enough power to do that.
(Perceval) I want to know who induced it?
A: U.S.
Q: (Perceval) At the government level, or super-secret nonsense?
A: Secret gov.
Q: (L) And how did they do this? Was this from some kind of waves that Ark is talking about?
A: Close. And notice that no one is arguing with them right now!
Q: (L) In other words, you've got something that can do that, nobody's gonna mess with you.
(Ark) But the main question is, did they really want to induce it in the neighborhood of Haiti, or it was a mistake?
A: Yes, the prep was done.
Q: (Andromeda) So they intentionally did it to Haiti.
(Ark) What I would do, I would use a submarine and go near the fault, and do the job using these submarines as a so to say amplifiers for something. There are these faults under the ocean. It's enough to move this fault in the right direction with the right frequency, and you get it.
A: Too dangerous that way because the pulses would also destroy the sub. Better to use triangulated space-based weapons.
Q: (Belibaste) Why did they target Haiti specifically?
A: Close to South America. Convenient, oil, other factors of imperialistic nature.
Q: (Andromeda) Was it like a test?
A: No.
Q: (Burma Jones) Not a test, so they've used this thing a lot before?
(Perceval) They used it on the Columbia.
A: Once or twice.
Q: (Perceval) Used on the space shuttle.
(Psyche) That's why Chavez was so sure.
(Ark) It's probably much easier for the island than on the mainland...
(L) Yeah, because you've got separation with the ocean bed and different strata. It would be too uncontrollable if you started zapping a fault on a large land body.
(Andromeda) Like California?
(Perceval) When they said, "notice how no one is arguing with them now", does that mean that most major nations in the world are aware that this was a...
A: Yes
Q: (Perceval) Good way to shut people up.
Comment: Let us suggest another reason, why instances of noctilucent clouds are intensifying.
What we suspect has really been happening, based on our research thus far, is that the upper atmosphere is cooling because it is being loaded with comet dust, which shows up in the form of noctilucent clouds and other upper atmospheric formations.
Magnificent and mesmerizing noctilucent clouds (also called polar mesospheric clouds), were once considered to be rare. But now they are puzzling scientists with their recent dramatic changes. Apparently, the clouds are growing brighter, are seen more frequently, are visible at ever lower latitudes and are now appearing even during the day. If scientists were allowed to conduct honest interdisciplinary research, such changes wouldn't be a mystery.
They would be able to figure out that comet dust is electrically-charged which is causing the earth's rotation to slow marginally. The slowing of the rotation is reducing the magnetic field, opening earth to more dangerous cosmic radiation and stimulating more volcanism. The volcanism under the sea is heating the sea water which is heating the lower atmosphere and loading it with moisture.
The moisture hits the cooler upper atmosphere and contributes to a deadly mix that inevitably leads to an Ice Age, preceded for a short period by a rapid increase of greenhouse gases and "hot pockets" in the lower atmosphere, heavy rains, hail, snow, and floods.
