ScoMo's prayers for rain have been answered
Jan 17th, 2020 at 1:09pm
 
ScoMo prays for rain and the Good Lord makes it pour. Wonder how GetUp! will try to make FAKE NEWS out of this ?

But it is not going to help the Lunatic Extremist Greenies who caused the bushfires.

Thank you Lord you have saved my bacon!!!!



Firefighters rejoice as heavy rain set to dampen fire grounds
The New Daily 1:10pm, Jan 14, 2020 Updated: 11:25pm, Jan 14

...

Exhausted firefighters in New South Wales and Victoria are gleeful at the prospect of thunderstorms and heavy rains forecast to hit south-eastern Australia in coming days.

Rain is expected across much of NSW from Tuesday including fire grounds in the Snowy Mountains, southwest of Sydney and South Coast regions.

The wet weather is expected extend down into Victoria over the coming days.

NSW Rural Fire Service commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said forecast of rain is the best news firefighters have had for many months.

“From a fire point of view, this is the best week we’ve seen for many, many months in terms of easing some of the conditions,” Mr Fitzsimmons told the Channel Nine on Tuesday.

“We are expecting right across the state – particularly the Great Dividing Range, which happens to coincide where all this fire activity has been for the past few months – widespread 30 to 80 millimetres.”


If this BOM_NSW rainfall forecast comes to fruition then this will be all of our Christmas, birthday, engagement, anniversary, wedding and graduation presents rolled into one. Fingers crossed. NSWRFS

Some areas with thunderstorms could receive up to 100mm, Mr Fitzsimmons added.

“If it’s falling on fire grounds that will certainly have a positive effect right across the fire fighting effort.”

The downside is there could be localised flash-flooding, significant erosion and problematic run-off into water catchments.

Mr Fitzsimmons said to protect drinking supplies “filtration and other equipment is being deployed into the water systems”.

Dampening the flames
Sarah Scully, extreme weather forecaster at the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), said there was potential for fires that were beneath a thunderstorm to be contained by the rainfall.

“The best-case scenario, with the ongoing showers and storms from Wednesday onwards, is that they can really impact and help to extinguish some of the fires,” she told the ABC.

Ms Scully said the increased rain could also make it harder for new blazes to form, and the threat of lightning-induces fires would be lessened..

“At least with this heavy rainfall the ground will be more moist and it’ll be harder to ignite,” she said.

The NSW fire service is working closely with the SES, NSW Police and the Bureau of Meteorology to track where the heaviest falls were likely to be.

So far this bushfire season some 2176 homes have been destroyed across NSW. Of that number, 1260 have been lost in the past fortnight.

“This figure is likely to increase as (assessment) teams continue to work through fire-affected areas,” the RFS tweeted on Tuesday.

There are still more than 100 fires burning across NSW.

The BOM says it’s difficult to predict exactly how much rain will fall this week because the downpours will be inconsistent.

Bega on the South Coast is expected to receive between 3mm and 10mm on Thursday when most rain is predicted to fall.

However, in Cooma, just 100 kilometres inland, greater falls of between 8mm and 25mm are forecast.

The Climate Warriors look really sick and stupid as the TRUTH about Australia's bush fires and drought comes out that it is simply a natural cyclical occurrence. AND, apart from the Indian Dipole, there is ALSO the negative Southern Annular Mode (SAM) to further sink the Climate Loonies.

What a let down for the silly hysterical screeching lying Climate Warriors when it all transpires to be nothing more than a normal cyclical natural event!!!





Positive Indian Ocean Dipole fuels bushfires devastating Australia and deadly flooding in Africa

RELATED STORY: Fears hot and gusty winds will whip up 'mega fire' burning on Sydney's fringes
RELATED STORY: Spring breaks yet another record for Australia

A climatic phenomenon of near-record intensity has contributed to two extremes on opposite sides of the Indian Ocean — torrential rain in East Africa and exceptionally dry conditions fuelling bushfires in Australia.

Key points:
A positive Indian Ocean Dipole is triggered by a change in ocean temperatures
It ends with the start of the monsoon season, but this has been delayed
Like an El Nino/La Nina in the Pacific, it can drastically impact weather patterns


The bushfire season began much earlier than usual in eastern Australia and has been one of the most devastating on record, based on the area burnt.

Australia's most populous city of Sydney has been choking under a blanket of thick smoke funnelling in from the fire zones, its air quality exceeding hazardous levels on several occasions.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-12-10/sydneys-air-quality-plummets-from-surroun...

But the parched and hazy landscape in Australia is in stark contrast to the rain-drenched terrain of east Africa, where severe floods, mudslides and landslides have killed nearly 300 people.

The common link is a strong positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), the counterpart to the El Nino weather system that develops in the Pacific Ocean.


The negative effect of a positive IOD
The IOD measures differences in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern parts of the Indian Ocean.

https://youtu.be/J6hOVatamYs

A positive IOD occurs when waters near the Horn of Africa are warmer than average leading to enhanced rainfall there, while cooler waters develop off Indonesia resulting in less rainfall and high temperatures in Australia.

The Bureau of Meteorology's head of long-range forecasting, Andrew Watkins, said the IOD event peaked in mid-October when the waters around east Africa were about 2 degrees Celsius warmer than those near Australia.

"It's the strongest we've had since 1997 and it's comparable to only three events that we've seen in the past — in 1997, 1994 and 1961," he said.

Dr Watkins said it played a key role in Australia recording its driest spring on record and the fifth-warmest.

Positive a negative for drought-hit areas
...
The positive IOD has exacerbated the drought over central and southern Australia.

"In Australia it has contributed to the very dry and warm conditions we've seen over winter and spring … and that has unfortunately set us up for a bad fire season in parts of eastern Australia," he said.

Dr Watkins said it had also played a role in Perth posting its hottest ever start to summer, and with maximum temperatures expected to hover around 40C in the city until Sunday, it is likely other records will also tumble.

"It does appear to have some impact on southern parts of WA, so you do tend to see it being a bit drier and warmer during IOD events … December so far has been very hot."

Meanwhile, rainfall across the greater Horn of Africa was up to 300 per cent above average from October to mid-November, according to the Famine Early Warning Systems Network.

But won't these trolls squirm when ScoMo is proven correct in that it is the Indian Dipole ?

Can ScoMo now claim he is the VICTIM like the Greenies do ?

that's was about the full extent of scomo's plan when he was first approached with concerns about the fires..... pray and hope for rain .. well finally he got it.

It only took about 6 months and burnt out 12.3million acres... but the main thing is that we scomo prayed ... thank you scumo for being such a great leader

Hard core Lefty Mr Smith forgets or never knew that bush fires are a STATE responsibility.

And ScoMo was following protocol in NOT interfering in STATE matters.

But really what do the various whatnots reckon ScoMo could have done ?

ScoMo could not have undone the damage the vile Greenies who caused the fires had already done. How many of those arsonists were Lunatic Extremist Greenies ?


But what would have made a huge difference if Anal had done a Shifty Shorty and gone down there and seized control of the Fire HQ and run everything (into the ground!!!) .

And he makes no effort to establish walls from behind which future fires may be defended against... but relies instead on the short memory of the voters to forget that he has done nothing and will do nothing... so when the next Moons of The Big Dry occur.. the same will be the result..

Instead he will call a Royal Commission governed by an old friend who is paid well, which will tell us how to endeavour to persevere without good infrastructure...

We will think on this.....

What IS the point of the STates if they only ever do what Mother Canberra gives them money for?  Why are the States raising money in the form of taxes, levies and fines and the all the rest is they are not responsible, ultimately, for what they ARE responsible for and what they ARE collecting the money for.

They sound like Calabrian yeah-but-no-but arse-coverers.  Either the States are responsible and then they should meet their responsibility - or the Commonwealth is responsible in which case the States should get the hell out of the way and NOT make idiotic land mismanagement laws because of pressure from some hippy councillors on local government councils.

A true damning exposure of the Greeny Climate Insanity gripping the weak gullible minds of many.

The Lunatic Extremist Greenies WANTED the bush fires to burn Australia to the ground because their warped minds thought this would convince everyone they were right all the time and would convince people that their UN One World Socialist "Govt" in a Sustainable World was the ONLY ANSWER to SAVE THE WORLD!!!!.  Total bulldust of course.





Climate 'religion' is fueling Australia's wildfires
BY RUPERT DARWALL, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR — 01/17/20 02:00 PM EST  1,285

Climate 'religion' is fueling Australia's wildfires © Getty Images

Al Gore blames the climate crisis; Barack Obama says Australia’s bushfires are the very real, very urgent consequences of climate change. Hillary Clinton declares we are in a climate emergency.

More than three months ago there were warnings of an unusually strong Indian Ocean Dipole, with warm water off Africa contributing to rain there and cold water off Western Australia leading to severe drought there. Strong winds and updrafts created conditions for hundreds of lightning strikes. Together with the build-up of fuel – five years ago, bushfire expert David Packham warned that forest fuel levels had climbed to their most dangerous in thousands of years – this led to Australia experiencing its worst fires in 100 years. The hellish conditions saw a fire tornado flip a fire truck, killing a volunteer firefighter.

Before Australia, California, with climate and vegetation similar to much of Australia, was ravaged by wildfires for three years. Those, too, were blamed on climate change. Yet experts at last week’s National Council for Science and the Environment conference downplayed the role of climate change. According to Scott Stephens, professor of fire science at the University of California, Berkeley, 20 to 25 percent of the wildfire damage resulted from climate change while “75 percent is the way we manage lands and develop our landscape.”


So far, this year’s strong Indian Ocean Dipole has not been blamed on climate change and carbon dioxide emissions. In the nature of things, that might well change. Great kudos will redound to any climate scientist who can hypothesize a causal connection between the two. But whether the principal factor behind the severity of wildfires is manmade climate change or the natural variations of ocean currents, those most vocal in their concern about climate change believe climate change is to blame.


The 2008 Garnaut Report on Climate Change, commissioned by the Australian states and the opposition Labor party, cited a 2007 study suggesting that fire seasons would start earlier, end slightly later and generally be more intense. “This effect increases over time, but should be directly observable by 2020,” economist Ross Garnaut wrote.

If environmentalism, the dominant ideology of our age, were based on rationality, it would involve the development and deployment of a rational calculus for decisionmakers to maximize human welfare and environmental benefits. It would help answer the question of what action could reduce the severity of fires before they break out, to protect people and ecosystems. California fires have killed more than 100 people and destroyed thousands of homes. Like California, fires are part of Australia’s ecosystem and its fauna have developed adaptive strategies. According to Sam Banks, a conservation biologist at Charles Darwin University in Australia, as climate change lengthens fire seasons and brings more frequent, intense fires, it could become increasingly difficult for ecosystems to bounce back. These changes, he says, “are potentially quite a major risk to our biodiversity.”

Far from campaigning for aggressive land-management policies to minimize the buildup of fuel through controlled burns, or to insist on firebreaks and other measures to contain fire’s spread, some environmental organizations campaign against them. Writing about the California fires, Myron Ebell and Patrick Michaels of the Competitive Enterprise Institute criticized the culture of vegetation worship that “militates against purposefully burning things down. In California, these ‘prescribed’ fires are now largely prohibited (because burning releases dreaded carbon dioxide), ensuring that disaster is always just around the corner.” So Greens would prefer that carbon remain on the ground as fuel for larger, deadlier conflagrations that release bigger plumes of carbon dioxide?

In Australia, Packham notes that forest fuel levels have worsened over 30 years because of “misguided green ideology” and condemned the left-leaning state of Victoria for its “failed fire management policy,” which, he says, represents an increasing threat to human life, water supplies, property and the forest environment.


It’s clear, then, that there is no rational basis to the ideology of environmentalism.

And man did God make it rain!!  It didn't rain - it POURED!!!!!  Just goes to show the power of ScoMo's link with the Lord.

Where would we have been with Shifty old Shorty's date with the DEVIL if Labor had gotten in ?????


Shorty could have prayed to God for rain too, dear.

God probably listens to ScoMo more though, given he's in the Hillsong Church. His pastor's Brian Houston, who paid off his dad's sexual abuse victims.

God works in mysterious ways, no?

Karnal, HE sure does.

But now to expose how evil the Lunatic Extremist Greenies that control the Labor Party really are.

Evil Greenies squeal with delight as they burn Australia to the ground



Are climate change deniers trying to use misinformation to say the cause of the Australian fires was arson?
Paul Noel, former Research Scientist 6 Level 2 UAH Huntsville Al. (2009-2014) Updated Sun · Upvoted by Jan Lindström, Environmental Science background. Climate interest since the 80´s. Physicist.

It isn’t misinformation. Over 75% of the fires were caused by Arson. Worse yet for the greens, the fuel on the ground was there because the greens got legislation passed in Canberra that stopped controlled burns, firebreaks and backfires. This kept the fuel in place, caused it to accumulate for years and then prevented any rational firefighting measures.

You really need to understand that this disaster was not only caused by arson as pointed out, it was also set up for the burn by the Leftists and Greens and then it was prevented from containment by the Leftists and Greens. This is a first class crime by the Climate Change people. It is first degree murder in the name of Climate Change. This is the only way it can be described.

The hands of the Climate Change agenda and their fingerprints are all over the death of nearly 20 people. Many of us have been warning this was building up for months and years. I myself warned about this in July 2019. I knew it was coming. I tried to call out the disaster before the first spark of a fire started. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars of damages were going to happen and I called it out. I am not the only person who called it out.


Late Edit: I have now seen some Australians were calling this out more than 10 years before. These were fire control professionals in the management of bushfires. I don’t want anyone thinking my analysis was strange, unusual or particularly prescient. I was a latecomer to warning about this situation. They were warning that it had been building up for a decade at that time.

I cannot stress enough how plain clear and well known the mismanagement was and that is lays directly on the head of the leftists and greens. They caused this trouble because of the triumph of their belief over reality in causing things. This was murder most foul and worse yet a fair number of the arsonists are known to be prominent Greens trying to push their agenda.

People of the earth must understand there is nothing scientific, green or just about the social justice and leftists and greens. These are anarchists trying to destroy your freedom prosperity, health and safety. Tolerate them at your peril! A warning from me for the future.
