The police department in Apopka, Florida lost power following a lightning strike on Tuesday evening.

A severe storm rolled through the area, resulting in a lightning strike near the police department parking lot. The building lost power and the strike damaged multiple electrical transformers; however, the building's generator kicked-in shortly thereafter.

The Apopka Fire Department responded due to a haze in the building, but no damage or fire was located. There were no injuries, but it did startle a police canine officer who was standing next to his patrol car at the time of the strike.

Adapt 2030 Ice Age Report: Global climate shift amplification media pushes global cooling to protect themselves

Kitzsteinhorn ski resort in Austria on 25th June
With the now obvious changes in our climate signaling "Global Cooling" we see the Wall Street Journal question James Hansen's predictions and the AGW narrative, even calling out predictions that did not pan out. The media is now dripping in words to articles like, Grand Solar Minimum, Global Cooling and Shifting Cloud Patterns to give themselves some credibility as the climate cools.

When meteorologists in Canada call all time record snow "White Rain" because they don't feel snow belongs in summertime lexicon of weather forecasting, we have a huge shift happening in the media arenas. Record snow in Italy, Canada, Slovakia, Ukraine, Poland, Slovenia all this week, people are starting to ask questions about the media we are being fed. Arctic ice at 13 year highs, Greenland Ice Budget growing, Antarctic Sea Ice growing, people are really starting to wake up. This will be the last year of "Global Warming" on our planet.

The media is abuzz about three studies, each indicating that "climate change" is bringing about the demise modern agriculture imminently. Christian amplifies some of this coverage, dispelling the myth that these crop losses are anthropogenic, and reinforces the message that we all must grow our own food and prepare for times ahead as we enter the Grand Solar Minimum.

[heat source] Plays critical role in movement, melting

Via Eurekalert KINGSTON, R.I. - June 22, 2018 - A researcher from the University of Rhode Island's Graduate School of Oceanography and five other scientists have discovered an active volcanic heat source beneath the Pine Island Glacier in Antarctica.

The discovery and other findings, which are critical to understanding the stability of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, of which the Pine Island Glacier is a part, are published in the paper, "Evidence of an active volcanic heat source beneath the Pine Island Glacier," in the latest edition of Nature Communications.

Assistant Professor Brice Loose of Newport, a chemical oceanographer at GSO and the lead author, said the paper is based on research conducted during a major expedition in 2014 to Antarctica led by scientists from the United Kingdom. They worked aboard an icebreaker, the RRS James Clark Ross, from January to March, Antarctica's summer.

Comment: Volcanic activity around the world is on the rise, so it's no wonder that the West Antarctic ice sheet is seeing a similar increase in activity:
