Gigantic Jet registered at JPZ4 / PB station in João Pessoa on 17/04/2020, at 21:12 (18/04 00:12 UTC). More at: http://www.bramonmeteor.org/bramon/gi...

Gigantic Jet is an electrical phenomenon from the upper atmosphere, a rare type of Transient Luminous Event (TLE) that starts as a blue jet from above the storm clouds (~ 20 km altitude) and becomes reddish, extending in some milliseconds to the upper limit of the mesosphere (~ 95 km altitude).

Earth's magnetic field is reverberating from the unexpected impact of a CME during the early hours of April 20th. G1-class geomagnetic storms are now underway with bright auroras sighted earlier today in Montana and Canada.

"Northern lights danced across the entire northwestern Montana sky early this morning," reports Philip Granrud. "I photographed them with a wide angle lens on top of my car several miles outside of Kalispell."

"It was such a nice break from everything that's been going on in the world lately," he says.

This is the first geomagnetic storm of 2020. In fact, the last time storm levels reached G1 on NOAA Storm Scales was more than a year ago: March 16-17, 2019.

People in parts of north Georgia got an amazing sight in the sky Saturday.

Channel 2 Action News viewer John Westbrook took pictures of a rainbow-colored cloud formation over Holly Springs in Floyd County.

Severe Weather Team 2 Chief Meteorologist Glenn Burns explains how the amazing phenomenon, called a "circumhorizontal arc" or a "fire rainbow," happens.

"High clouds made of ice crystals are hit with the angle of the sun, creating the same effect as a prism," Burns said.

The result is a wispy, iridescent cloud formation.

Cape Breton in Nova Scotia, Canada hit by spring blizzard - foot of snow dumped

Sunday morning in Sydney looked more like February than the middle of April, as residents woke up to roughly 30 centimetres of snow, being blown about by howling winds.

Cape Breton is just beginning to dig out from a mid-spring blizzard that walloped the region, giving people all the more reason to stay home.

"I don't even know what to think," says Joseph Rudderham. "I figured we were all done with this, and I started parking trucks up, but now, I've got to bring them out again."

At least 36 killed by floods in South Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo

flood
The UN reports that at least 36 people have lost their lives in flooding in South Kivu Province in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DR Congo).

According to the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO), torrential rain fell in the city of Uvira and surrounding areas in South Kivu, from 16 to 17 April 2020.

Officials said the heavy rain caused the Mulongwe river to break its banks in Uvira city. The ensuing floods caused significant material damage. Theo Kassi, governor of the province reported that as of 17 April, at least 3,500 homes had been destroyed. MONUSCO said 15,000 homes have been damaged or destroyed, and 7 bridges damaged or have completely collapsed. Almost 78,000 people are reported to have been left without shelter. Roads have been blocked and drinking water supply cut.

Greenland has gained 27+ gigatons of snow and ice over the past 5 days alone - MSM silent

Greenland ice sheet


Despite decades of doom-and-gloom prophecies, Greenland's Ice Sheet is currently GAINING monster amounts of "mass" — 27 gigatons over the past 5 days alone (April 14 - 18, 2020).


Crucial to the survival of a glacier is its surface mass balance (SMB) - the difference between accumulation and ablation (sublimation and melting). Changes in mass balance control a glacier's long-term behavior, and are its most sensitive climate indicators.

On the back of substantial SMB gains over the past few years, the Greenland ice sheet looks set to continue that trend in 2019-20. From April 14 through April 18, 2020, the world's largest island added a monster 27+ gigatons to its ice sheet. According to climate alarmists, this simply shouldn't be happening in a warming world. In fact, it might as well not be happening as developments like these NEVER receive MSM attention, meaning alarmists are NEVER privy to the full and unalarming picture...
