The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country.

Snow expected in Jerusalem, mountainous areas on Wednesday

Fiercest storm in 20 years predicted to abate only on Thursday


By Gabe Fisher January 8, 2013

With temperatures dropping throughout Israel, the epic storm that has been battering the country since the weekend promises to blanket mountainous regions with up to a foot of snow over a several-day period, including in Jerusalem.
 
The rainy, windy storm continued Tuesday evening, along with “unseasonably cold” conditions.
 
According to the forecasts from the Israel Meteorological Service, snow, which has been falling on Mount Hermon all week, was expected to spread to other mountainous areas overnight Tuesday, including Safed in the north and possibly parts of the Etzion bloc, south of Jerusalem.
 
On Wednesday, extremely strong winds and rain were predicted throughout the country, with snow expected in the higher elevations, including in Jerusalem and possibly in the mountain areas of the Negev Desert.
 
The storm, the fiercest Israel has seen in two decades, is expected to let up on Thursday afternoon.
 
In Jerusalem, where a snowy day is considered a semi-official holiday, the municipality on Tuesday had already prepared tractors and other snow-clearing equipment.

Mark 13:14-18 KJV

But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not,  (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judæa flee to the mountains:  And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:  And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.  But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!  And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.

Stunning images of Australian dust storm

1/11/13

'Eerie and amazing' images of a dust storm in western Australia have been posted online. As southern Australia 'sizzles' in an extreme heatwave, the 'meteorological phenomenon' rolled over western Australia.
 
Buzzfeed posted incredible images of a 'meteorological phenomenon' which showed a huge dust storm off the coast of western Australia. As it moved over the water it looked like a tangible substance, dense and unyielding.

The photos were taken by various Australians and are posted on Facebook at Perth Weather Live. The images have received media attention and various comments. Most of the photos were uploaded from mobile or cell phones. In one photo, the Macedon Gas project site looks like the aftermath of a disaster. One comment on this image read, 'makes nice picture but not good for the aircon'.
 
The dust storm off the coast of Onslow, Western Australia, is predicted to be followed by tropical cyclone Narelle, according to the Australian.
 
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology said the dust storm was not directly linked to Tropical Cyclone Narelle. Narelle is currently hundreds of kilometres off shore. The dust storm met with strong winds and rain as it passed over Onslow, resulting in it 'dumping sand and dust' it had picked up. Winds with a speed of 102kph were recorded.

Category-three cyclone Narelle continues to track its way to Australia and wind speeds at its centre are estimated to be 250km/h. Western Australia is known for its gas production and precautionary measures are being taken. Flights are on stand-by to evacuate workers, if necessary, According to the Australian,

Seven people died as a result of Cyclone Bobby in February 1995, and three more lives were lost during Cyclone George in March 2007.
 
Strong winds, with increasing speeds and destructive gusts, will continue Friday and Saturday. The main area affected will be Whim Creek and Onslow in Western Australia plus, later on Friday, the Karratha area.

Californians deal with freezing temps, snow

1/13/13



SAN DIEGO (AP) — Oddly enough, even polar bears at the San Diego Zoo are getting a helping hand with the unseasonable freezing temperatures sweeping across California.
 
Zookeepers turned up the heat for some animals and offered shelter to polar bears as a cold snap continues through the weekend, promising to bring the coldest overnight temperatures.
 
While polar bears tolerate frigid climes, the zoo animals lack the fat layers that naturally occur in the wild to fully protect them from the cold so zookeepers offer them shelter and "warming apparatuses" in case they seek it, zoo spokeswoman Jenny Mehlow said.
 
"The animals do take this in stride because they're wearing a nice, warm fur coat," she said.
 
The National Weather Service forecasted near-record low temperatures Saturday and Sunday nights.
 
Frost and freeze warnings were in effect early Sunday for parts of San Diego County with lows in some areas dipping to 25 and even lower in the mountains, according to the weather service. On Saturday, the town of Ramona in eastern San Diego County recorded a low of 23 degrees, breaking the 24 degrees set in 2007.
 
Temperatures dropped to 5 degrees in the snow-covered Big Bear mountain resort east of Los Angeles on Saturday. Even the snowbird haven of Palm Springs saw temperatures hover around freezing at night.
 
Freeze warnings were issued for Sunday morning across wide swaths of the Los Angeles Basin. Residents were being urged to cover outdoor plants and bring pets inside.
 
In Sonoma County, homeless shelters handed out extra warm clothes to protect people from frigid overnight temperatures.
 
In the San Joaquin Valley, the heart of California's citrus production, growers prepared for another round of freezing temperatures early Sunday after seeing little crop damage since Thursday night.
 
"Last night was not a problem, but tonight and Monday morning could have the potential to be pretty cold," Paul Story, director of grower service at California Citrus Mutual, said Saturday.
 
Farmers run wind machines and water to protect their fruit, which can raise the temperature in a grove by up to 4 degrees, Story said. Existing moisture, sporadic rain and cloud cover can also help keep in heat.

3,400 people spend night at Tokyo airport after snowfall causes flight cancellations

1/15/13

TOKYO - Tokyo's Narita International Airport operator says 3,400 travellers spent the night in the terminal after snow caused airlines to cancel 71 flights.
 
In the season's first snowfall in the Japanese capital, about 8 centimetres (3 inches) of snow fell in central Tokyo and around Narita on Monday — a national holiday in Japan. The snow snarled traffic and caused train delays.
 
Airport officials distributed sleeping bags, water and crackers to stranded travellers. Normal flight operations at Narita resumed Tuesday, except for a few delays.
 
Major train operator JR East said trains were running on schedule Tuesday.
 
Sections of several highways around Tokyo were still closed Tuesday as workers cleared away snow and ice.

Tennessee declares state of emergency over ice storm

http://news.yahoo.com/tennessee-declares-state-emergency-over-ice-storm-022221370.html

1/15/13

NASHVILLE (Reuters) - Tennessee officials declared a state of emergency on Tuesday as ice storms hit a swathe of territory in the mid-south of the United States and concerns grew about flooding and dangerous road conditions.
 
Freezing rain across the region from about mid-morning on Tuesday had caused ice accumulation of up to half an inch (12.7 mm) in Arkansas just southwest of Memphis, according to the National Weather Service.
 
As much as a quarter inch to half inch of ice could coat roadways and power lines across Tennessee, according to the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency, leading to the state of emergency.
 
"When you start putting that much ice on roadways and power lines, it's not going to be good," said Jeremy Heidt, a spokesman for the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency.
 
The most treacherous spots from accumulated ice were on bridges and overpasses, said Corey Chaskelson, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Nashville.
 
Tennessee transportation officials have ordered all workers to stay on duty through the night because of the forecasts for icing, which would include 1,200 people and 250 trucks. The rain in eastern Tennessee is leading to flooding issues, Heidt said.
 
"We are not letting any crews go home," said Beth Emmons, Tennessee Transportation Department spokeswoman. "All the trucks are loaded and they'll start laying the salt as needed."
 
Memphis Police spokeswoman Alyssa Moore said the city began to see rain, sleet and freezing rain just as the evening rush hour was starting.
 
"The roads are beginning to get really slick," Moore said.

Surprise winter storm creates travel woes across N. Texas

1/15/13

An unexpected winter storm that struck North Texas before daybreak Tuesday put morning commuters on ice, canceled flights and forced some schools to open later than normal.

Forecasters had predicted a slight chance of light sleet but had said that most of the precipitation should stay southeast of Dallas-Fort Worth.

Oops.

"It's always a challenge to predict winter precipitation in North Texas," said Nick Hampshire, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service office in Fort Worth. "It's always a fine line. If it had been two or three degrees warmer, we would have been talking about a rain event."

Many parts of Tarrant County received as much as a half-inch of sleet and snow, the most significant icy precipitation since the Christmas Day storm, said Dan Shoemaker, another weather service meteorologist.

But don't expect a repeat this morning. Promise, the weather service said.

The day will dawn chilly, with temperatures in the mid to upper 20s, but the forecast high is about 50 degrees, and there is no chance of precipitation. An upper-level low-pressure system that caused the wintry event still lingered over North Texas Tuesday evening, but it was missing a key ingredient for precipitation, Shoemaker said.

"Now we have dry, cool air pushing in, rather than cool, moist air," he explained.

Temperatures should warm into the upper 50s by the weekend before another cold front arrives in time for Monday's Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday.

But early Tuesday morning, the surprising sounds of thunder and sleet caught residents unaware.

The lift from the upper-level low-pressure system took the moist cool air that was available then and pushed into a layer of instability aloft, "and that's when we had thunder," Shoemaker said.

Streets and overpasses began icing up after 5 a.m. Five hours later, Fort Worth police had reported more than 40 accidents. Dozens of other wrecks were reported throughout the county.

A few overpasses, ramps and bridges, including the Hulen Street bridge in west Fort Worth, were also closed for a time because of ice.

Some businesses and school districts delayed their openings.

At Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, 343 American and American Eagle inbound and outbound flights were canceled. American Airlines spokesman Matt Miller said operations returned to normal by lunchtime but said some flights were canceled Tuesday afternoon.

A Southwest Airlines spokeswoman said 26 flights at Dallas Love Field were canceled but that operations returned to normal by 10 a.m.

Parts of Denton and Collin counties got more precipitation -- and more serious traffic problems. And in Grayson County along the Texas-Oklahoma border, the office of emergency management reported that bridges and overpasses were "treacherous" Tuesday morning. Portions of I-35 in Denton and Cooke counties also had problems.

Tuesday was actually the second straight day that North Texas commuters got a taste of wintry weather. On Monday, sleet and pellets of snow fell across the region, but it was too light to cause any problems.

Tuesday's high was 39.

Ice and Snow Cause Hundreds of Wrecks in NC

1/26/13

Freezing rain and sleet have closed schools and offices and caused hundreds of wrecks across North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky.

The icy weather snarled traffic across much of western and central North Carolina. The Department of Transportation reported traffic moving under 30 mph on much of Interstate 40 from Winston-Salem to Raleigh and Interstate 85 from Charlotte to Durham.

Charlotte Police were responding to dozens of calls of cars overturned as the heaviest freezing rain moved through.

The storm has caused no deaths, and only scattered power outages have been reported.

Tennessee had declared a state of emergency as a precaution and the eastern part of the state is seeing significant icing.

An ice storm warning was issued from the Smoky Mountains, northward through Knoxville, Cumberland Gap and well into Kentucky.

Here in North Texas, the weather has been INCREDIBLY warm this winter. Yes, it is the south, but nonetheless the winters here are at least moderately cold.

It seems like thus far this year, extremes have taken place on both ends of the spectrum. Who knows what this summer will bring...

Snowiest winter in 100 years paralyzes Moscow traffic for 3,500 km

2/5/13

http://rt.com/news/snowiest-moscow-winter-century-470/

The snowiest winter in a century has hit the Russian capital, causing Muscovites to get stuck in traffic jams 3,500km in length on Monday evening – the distance from Moscow to Madrid.
 
­Since the beginning of the winter, over 2 meters of snow has fallen on the Russian capital, the Moscow mayor’s aide in housing and public utilities Pyotr Biryukov told Interfax. Snowfall is expected in Moscow for four or five more days, he added.

On Monday, 45,000 community services employees and 15,000 units of equipment were attempting to cope with 26 cm of snow – nearly a fifth of the average annual fall.

The latest snowfall has become a nightmare for drivers with the capital’s commuters trapped in gridlock.

Many of those who left their workplace in the evening had to spend five to 10 hours getting home. The average speed of vehicles was no more than 7-9 km/h. The number of road accidents – 3,000 – was much higher than during an ordinary day, with minor accidents quadrupling, according to Channel One TV.

Peru, Chile and Bolivia hit by floods after heavy rain

2/9/13

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-21399408

Torrential rain trapped many cars and flooded hundreds of homes

Torrential rain has been causing havoc along the Pacific coast side of South America, with flooding causing the deaths of at least six people in Peru.

In the southern city of Arequipa, thousands of people were left without electricity and drinking water.

In Chile, some four million people were hit by cuts to water supply blamed on landslides in San Jose de Maipo, 30 miles (48 km) south east of Santiago.

The landslides contaminated two rivers supplying the capital's water plants.

The Aguas Andinas water company said it expected to bring the water supply back to normal by Sunday afternoon.

Last week, even Chile's Atacama desert, one of the driest places in the world, suffered with heavy rain.

Bodies in car
 
The authorities in Peru declared a state of emergency in Arequipa.

The national meteorological service said that the bad weather brought down the equivalent of three months of rain in about seven hours.

"There are no records of an event of this magnitude"
, the local director of the service, Sebastian Zuniga, told the Andina news agency.

At least two bodies were found in a car that was buried in mud after a road collapsed.

Torrential rain has also fallen over most regions in neighbouring Bolivia.

Nearly 9,000 people are said to have been affected and crops lost to the rain.

Last week, Brazil announced it would send 500 tonnes of rice to aid Bolivians hit by the natural disaster.

Significant damage in Mississippi from apparent tornado

The National Weather Service said a tornado was seen on the ground in West Hattiesburg, Miss.

NEW ORLEANS — Emergency officials said an apparent tornado has caused significant damage in Hattiesburg, Miss., after passing along a main road.

Forrest County Fire Coordinator Chip Brown said there is major damage in Hattiesburg and Petal, including on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi. He couldn't confirm injuries.

He said the damage was still being evaluated, but that the storm passed along a main Hattiesburg thoroughfare.

National Weather Service meteorologist Joanne Culin said there have also been reports of injuries in Marion County.

Nasty weather has settled in on much of Louisiana and Mississippi, including tornado or flash flood watches.

The National Weather Service says bad weather is likely to stretch into Fat Tuesday in southeast Louisiana. Jefferson Parish has canceled a Monday night parade.

Localized Flood Threat From New York City to Boston

2/11/13

http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/localized-flood-threatnew-york/5942130

A new storm is headed to New York City that will threaten to cause more problems for residents and commuters bringing rain but not a repeat blizzard.
 
AccuWeather.com Senior Meteorologist, Dave Samuhel, said the threat for rain on Monday will stretch throughout the New England region. Rainfall is expected to begin right before rush hour Monday morning in New York City and by midday in Boston.
 
New York City is not expected to experience freezing rain, but Samuhel said it is possible that areas north and west of the city experience some icy road conditions before temperatures get above freezing during the morning commute.
 
Temperatures throughout the I-95 corridor from NYC to Boston are expected to be relatively mild tomorrow, reaching into the mid- to upper 40s.



Flooding could be a potential issue during the six to nine hour period of rainfall on Monday, according to Samuhel. An expected half of an inch of rain is expected to rinse the northeast.
 
"Normally we don't see flooding with a half of an inch of rain, but we could see some in low lying areas, especially because storm drains could still be blocked with snow," Samuhel said.
 
The risk for flooding, according to Samuhel is greatest in Long Island, southern Connecticut and up into Providence, Rhode Island.
 
Drivers and walkers could experience a slower commute as rainfall and milder temperatures will turn snow into a slushy mess. With milder aid flowing over snow cover, this could provide patchy fog which could also contribute to some delays.

Obama declares disaster in Miss. after tornado

2/13/13

http://news.yahoo.com/obama-declares-disaster-miss-tornado-021905040.html

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — President Barack Obama on Wednesday declared a federal disaster in Mississippi following a massive tornado that tore through a college campus and destroyed or damaged more than 800 homes in the southern part of the state.
 
Obama ordered federal aid to supplement state and local recovery efforts in Forrest and Lamar counties, which were severely affected by Sunday's tornado and resulting severe weather. The National Weather Service says the tornado had maximum winds of 170 mph and forged a path three-quarters of a mile wide.
 
The disaster assistance can include grants for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses and other programs to help individuals and business owners recover.
 
Authorities say damage surveys are continuing, and more counties may be included after those are completed.
 
Officials estimate it will take tens of millions of dollars to repair damage by the tornado at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg.
 
The College Board voted unanimously Wednesday to allow Higher Education Commissioner Hank Bounds to sign contracts and take other actions without board approval to help the 16,000-student school recover. Officials say USM plans to resume classes Thursday, although 87 sections will be in temporary quarters.
 
The tornado damaged eight or nine buildings at the southern edge of the school's campus. One of those, a former fire station converted to house the jazz program, will have to be torn down, Bounds says.
 
Most of the damage to the school is expected to be covered by a $500 million insurance policy. The policy carries a $100,000 deductible.

Caught! Waterspout Comes Onshore in Tampa

As a waterspout sped toward Tampa, Fla., this morning (Feb. 26), a quick-thinking weather watcher snapped the vacation photo of a lifetime.
 
Robert Siegel, a spotter for the National Weather Service's volunteer program, was on vacation in Florida when the waterspout appeared in northern Hillsborough Bay at 11:12 a.m. Siegel, who lives in Colorado, shot photos and emailed them to the National Weather Service, which shared the waterspout image via Twitter.
 
The photos show dark, stormy skies and water swirling above the bay. The waterspout came ashore as a tornado with 60 mph (96 kph) winds, according to a statement from the National Weather Service's Tampa Bay office.

 The tornado then hit the Westin Hotel and proceeded down a channel between the Tampa Bay Times Forum and Harbour Island, the NWS said. The twister lifted just east of the Florida Aquarium, traveling about 4,500 feet (1,360 meters) in all. Wind gusts associated with the tornado reached 75 to 85 mph (120 to 136 kph).
 
No injuries were reported, but damage included roofing, condo furniture, downed light poles and five vehicles, the NWS said.
 
The entire Tampa Bay region was under a tornado watch for the morning as a cold front moved in from the north. The watch was canceled around 1 p.m. EST.

Forecasters say tornado spotted in N. California

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The National Weather Service says a tornado was sighted in Northern California as a winter storm passed through the area.
 
Meteorologist Johnnie Powell says a "weak" tornado was spotted in the Sacramento area north of Red Bluff on Tuesday shortly after 1:30 p.m.
 
Powell says the light funnel cloud has a preliminary rating of F0, meaning that it may have had winds speeds reaching between 40 to 70-miles-per-hour while causing little or no damage in the area.
 
Meanwhile, the storm has brought cooler temperatures and much-needed rain and snow in some parts of the state.

Australia hit by Tropical Cyclone Rusty

Tropical Cyclone Rusty has hit the coast of Western Australia, bringing with it pouring rain and strong winds.

Rusty had been forecast to make landfall in the Pilbara region's Port Hedland iron ore port, but instead touched down in nearby Pardoo town.

The storm has been downgraded from category four cyclone, one notch short of the top category, to category three.

It is bringing gusts of up to 165km/h (103mph), said Australia's Bureau of Meteorology (BoM).

"It looks as if Hedland has dodged the bullet, so to speak, because the worst of the winds are away from Hedland," Neil Bennett of the BoM told AFP early on Wednesday.

Record Warmth for Phoenix, Las Vegas

High pressure centered over the Four Corners will continue to expand, allowing temperatures to surge Thursday and Friday in the Southwest.

Temperatures in cities such as Phoenix, Ariz., and Palm Springs, Calif., are expected to make it into the 90s.

Palm Springs has gotten an early jump on the warmth, with the "heat wave" starting back on Tuesday, reaching 90 degrees, then following with a warm 95 on Wednesday.

Phoenix last reached this temperature in the beginning of November; however, even for that time of the year, a temperature in the low 90s is more than 10 degrees above the climatological average.

Readings in the low to mid-90s that these cities will experience are more characteristic of early October.

Although they will not hit the 90-degree mark, record warmth will also spread to Fresno, Calif., and Las Vegas, Nev.

Thursday afternoon, Fresno will approach the record of 83 that was set back in 2007. A day later, Las Vegas will get close to the record of 87 set in the same year.
