Hail in Cape Town at 7am this morning.
As predicted by the South African Weather Service (SAWS), parts of South Africa have been hit by an intense cold front yesterday and today (Wed and Thurs 10-11 June 2020).

Many Capetonians awoke to a scene that looked like snow... but was in fact bucket-loads of hail.

Whilst in other parts of the Western Cape, residents were treated to mountains of actual snow.

SAWS posted a satellite image of the cold front over the central interior of SA this morning. The weather service announced "very cold temperatures" across the western, central and southern parts of the country, and warned of heavy showers still being possible over the Western Cape with snow on the mountains.

Astonishing, record-breaking gains continue across the Greenland Ice Sheet — MSM silent

ice ice
The month of June is breaking records across the Greenland ice sheet, and not records for warmth and melt - as the mainstream media have trained you to expect - but new benchmarks for COLD and GAINS.

The SMB gains occurring right now across Greenland are truly astonishing.

Data-driven FACTS reveal vast regions to the south have been GAINING RECORD/NEAR-RECORD LEVELS of snow & ice all month.

Never before in June has the Greenland ice sheet grown by more than 4 Gigatons in a single day (since 1981 when DMI records began), but now the past week has gone and delivered two such days — June 3, and now yesterday, June 10.

In fact, yesterday's gains actually neared 5 Gts — you can see from the chart below how anomalous that gain is for the time of year:

Massive plasma discharge over Washington D.C leaving an air glow for a fraction of a second. If the glowing air lasted for seconds or minutes ancient peoples would have left petroglyphs of the event, I found several. Also these same sets of carvings show a micronova from our Sun with Squatter Man, so are we witnessing another repeat of ancient events over the USA Capital?

After a reportedly calm morning, the Corsican capital of Ajaccio was throttled by 103mm (four inches) of rain in just two hours, triggering flash flooding across the city, wreaking havoc on residents and businesses alike.

Intense thunderstorms localized over Ajaccio at around 11:30am local time on Thursday. The flooding began with an initial shower which dropped 40mm (1.5 inches) of rain in half an hour.

The storm then gathered pace as it continued into the afternoon and, after drainage systems were overwhelmed, city workers scrambled to replace burst sewer drain covers.

As eyewitness footage from the scene shows, cars and dumpsters were tossed around like toys by the flood waters.
