A woman shoves along Adelaide Street after Ottawa was hit with a winter storm Sunday Jan. 20, 2019.

The winter storm that, as of Sunday afternoon, is still passing through the region, was the coldest & snowiest Ottawa has seen since before the dawn of the 20th century.

Rolf Campbell, who tweets @YOW_Weather, observed that the storm - with a high reaching minus 18 degrees and two-day snow accumulation in surplus of 25 centimetres - was rivaled only by Feb. 8, 1895, when the max temperature was 17.8 degrees and accumulation exceeded 45 centimetres.

(There was also a snowstorm on Jan. 18, 1934 where it was minus 18.3 degrees, but the accumulation was only 15.2 centimetres.)

Third year in a row of extreme snowfall events for Europe. Grand Solar Minimum intensification forecast these amplifications, and these are the totals for 2019, but the real extremes will show around 2020-2021.

A man shovels snow from the roof of a house in the eastern city of Elazığ, Jan. 16, 2019.

Northern areas of Kurdistan are blanketed by meters of snow.

The regions are very mountainous and just several hundred feet can affect whether it snows or rains.

In Ovacik (Pulur) town in Turkey, 3 meters of snow has fallen and it is causing problems for locals. It is located in Dersim province.

"The roads are blocked; we have to clear them. When we reach them we need to open the springs and water for the livestock. The barns are also covered with snow. We clear them and feed the livestock," said local shepherd Omed Jandash.

A Phoenix, Durban, man who was mauled by dogs as he walked through the neighbourhood of Northcroft nearly two weeks ago, died as a result of his injuries at the weekend.

Dharmaseelan Moodley was walking home after visiting a friend when he was attacked by a pit bull cross and a boerboel on January 10 2019.

His sister, Sarah Naicker, said the dogs had savaged her 49-year-old brother.

"He was very badly injured and his neck was badly damaged ... he ended up on a ventilator. He was practically bitten from head to toe," she said.

Moodley, a driver, was taken to the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Hospital and underwent several surgical procedures.

EF2 tornado rips through Alabama town causing major damage

Daily Mail
Mon, 21 Jan 2019 03:34 UTC

Homes, businesses, government offices and churches were among the buildings badly damaged or demolished when tornadoes struck central Alabama over the weekend.

The severe weather hit Saturday and another tornado was reported later that evening at an air base in the Florida Panhandle.

On Sunday, the National Weather Service says its initial surveys indicated there was an EF 1 tornado in Autauga County, and a stronger EF2 twister in Wetumpka, Alabama.

'We suffered a tremendous amount of damage,' Mayor Jerry Willis said at a morning news conference with city and Elmore County officials. 'Something that we've never had here before.'

The familiar steeple of the First Baptist Church of Wetumpka was missing after the storm. And much of a historic Presbyterian church was reduced to rubble.

Officials said at a news conference Sunday morning that at least 25 homes were seriously damaged or destroyed. Also severely damaged were the Wetumpka police station, senior citizens center and recreation center, according to WSFA-TV.

'Thus far we've seen damage indicating wind speeds of 120 to 130 mph,' John DeBlock, of the National Weather Service in Birmingham, said during the news conference.

No deaths or life-threatening injuries were reported.

7.0 earthquake strikes near Anchorage, Alaska, heavy damage reported - UPDATE - Over 7,800 aftershocks

The northbound onramp for International Airport Rd. at Minnesota Blvd. collapsed Friday morning, Nov. 30, 2018 after a strong earthquake shook southcentral Alaska.

A magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Friday morning near Anchorage, Alaska, causing widespread damage, triggering rock slides and alarming office workers who plunged under their desks.

Residents are reporting damage in the nearby areas via social media. One man tweeted a photo of his toppled chimney and a local television station showed its studio filled with debris. Former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin tweeted, saying her family is intact but her "house is not."

"This is a large earthquake and there have been numerous aftershocks," said John Bellini, a geophysicist for the U.S. Geological Survey. He said the largest aftershock was a 5.7 magnitude quake about six minutes after the big one.

The quake struck at 8:29 a.m. local time about seven miles north of Anchorage, the USGS reported. There were no immediate reports of injuries or deaths. Officials have since canceled a tsunami warning for coastal areas of southern Alaska.

Comment: UPDATE December 3rd

Anchorage Daily News reports that small aftershocks have continued with 1,800 measured between last Friday and Monday. A total of 153 measured greater than 3.0, 18 were at 4.0 or greater and five were greater than 5.0, according to the Alaska Earthquake Center.

Earthquakes associated with Friday's 7.0 earthquake north of Anchorage as of 5:45 p.m. Sunday. The red dots represent shakes in the previous 24 hours, and the yellow dots are from the past week (with virtually all of them since Friday. The large dot directly north of the city was Friday's quake).

UPDATE January 19, 2019

Residents in Alaska are still reporting aftershocks from the event:

The latest big aftershock happened last Sunday - a magnitude 5.0 jolt that flared already frayed nerves and prompted panicky posts on social media.

That one "reminded people again that it's not over yet," said seismologist Natalia Rupert at the Alaska Earthquake Center.

There have been more than 7,800 aftershocks since the main earthquake struck 7 miles (11 kilometers) north of Anchorage, the state's most populous city. Most were too small to feel, but 20 have had magnitudes of 4.5 or greater. Rupert expects the temblors to continue for months, although the frequency has lessened, from about 200 daily to a couple dozen a day.
