Cold Records Fall Across Southeast U.S.; + Supervolcano Rumblings Have Italian Government Planning Mass Evacuations
Cold Records Fall Across Southeast U.S.
Temperatures are holding some 20 degrees (F) below average from the Great Lakes to the Mid-Atlantic to the Southeast.
The NWS has issued early-October freeze watches for some northern states, such as Minnesota, while temperature records have been tumbling across the Southeast, including in both North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi:
Temperatures on the West Coast will also crash after the next big coast-to-coast storm barrels in early this week.
San Francisco Bay Area will shiver through temps 20 degrees below average. While residents of Northern California and coastal Oregon are expected to have to turn the heating on with daily highs some 30F below normal by Tuesday.
By Thursday, the West’s anomalous cold will have extended eastward, intensifying across the likes of Wyoming, Utah, Colorado and Nebraska, while engulfing much of the Dakotas and even Iowa:
By the following day (Fri, Oct 13), those ‘blues’ and ‘purples’ will have broadened further still, to include the likes of Texas:
The snow is also returning, building on the early-season falls of the past few weeks:
Supervolcano Rumblings Have Italian Government Planning Mass Evacuations
Some 20 km (12.5 miles) southwest of Naples lies the stirring Campi Flegrei supervolcano.
Following 1,100+ earthquakes within a month, the Italian government is drawing up plans to evacuate tens of thousands of residents in the event of a further ramp-up, with additional measures set to be discussed in an upcoming cabinet meeting.
More than half a million residents in towns and villages surrounding the Campi Flegrei supervolcano are at direct risk.
The Italian cabinet is working to ensure their safety following months of seismic activity which has featured well-over 1,100 earthquakes, the most powerful of which measured in at an impressive M4.2 — the region’s strongest quake in the last 40 years.
Additional resources are expected to be allocated to local civil protection agencies to ensure rapid intervention in emergencies. A communication campaign aimed at raising public awareness about the situation is also in the planning stages.
Civil Protection Minister Nello Musumeci is, however, keen to dampen the alarm, stating that evacuations would be initiated only in cases of “extreme necessity” and that “most volcanologists” say there is not an “imminent” threat of an eruption.
Still, the reality is that a group of local area hospitals have already started evacuation tests on order of the experts, a move which is part of a broader strategy to prepare for stronger earthquakes and/or potential volcanic eruptions.
A natural phenomenon called ‘bradyseism’ is thought to be the cause of the increasing seismic activity. This is a cyclical rise or fall in the Earth’s surface due to the filling or emptying of underground magma chambers. Currently, the ground around Campi Flegrei is rising by 1.5 cm (0.6 inches) per month, sparking concerns about the structural integrity of local buildings.
Mauro Di Vito, Director of the INGV Vesuvian Observatory: “At present, there are no elements that suggest significant evolutions of the system in the short term … [but that] the situation is under constant monitoring.”
Campi Flegrei is a 13 km (8 miles) wide caldera that encompasses part of Naples and extends south beneath the Gulf of Pozzuoli.
The area has a history of intense volcanic and seismic activity.
Episodes of bradyseism accompanied by seismic swarms have been observed in the past, particularly during 1969 – 72 and 1982 – 84 (during which around 40 000 people were temporarily evacuated from the nearby town of Pozzuoli).
More recently, ground uplift in the Rione Terra area reached approximately 113 cm (44 inches) by July 2023.
The supervolcano’s last noteworthy eruption occurred in 1538 (a VEI 3).
However, its most devastating explosion took place approximately 39,000 years ago (so around the Laschamp Excursion). This ancient event caused utter devastation locally, and also led to a volcanic winter globally, one that contributed to the extinction of many fauna. Magma from the Campi Flegrei eruption has been detected as far as Greenland, 4,500 km (2,800 miles) away.
Volcanic and seismic activity appear to correlate with changes in our Sun. Their global uptick is likely attributed to the drop-off in solar activity, a waning magnetosphere, and the resulting the influx of Cosmic Rays penetrating silica-rich magma.

I remember reading , a few years ago, that it would take over eight days to evacuate most of Naples….probably longer now, if the population has gone up.
I hope Flagrei erupts soon. I want my old climate back. Can’t wait for this PoS new age climate climate to finally bugger off.
Can climate stay the same when our magnetic field is getting weaker? How much weaker is our mag shield today than sixty years ago? Have you read much about how fast our mag shield is weakening and our magnetic poles are shifting right now? Our weakened mag shield lets in more cosmic rays and more solar radiation from solar activity, do you think that might change weather and climate? How much, where, specifically?
I have been down the rabbit hole for 12 years trying to learn more about the subject and what I’ve learned is that nobody seems to know anything about it nobody ever talks about it and at this rate we will never know WTF is going on with it. Try watching Ben Davidson at Space Weather News and watch his old vids on the playlist. He has a book he wrote you can buy. He still admits he and his pals at NASA do not fully understand it all but they are trying and learning which is about all we can do. Last Dec a small solar flare came in as a gamma ray burst, many more recent small solar flares have hit our mag shield harder than expected.
Another site to visit is Magnetic Reversal News and his Ranch site. Another great site is Daily Events Worldwide he shows solar events, quakes, volcanos, weather scroll back a few years see what you missed.
How much of our weakened mag shield is from manmade GEO Engineering? Exactly to a percent, zero? Fifty? Nobody knows squat. Were the quake swarms last Sat night from HAARP? What percent chance, zero? 99.9? Nobody knows squat nobody’s gonna know squat. They tried to triangulate HAARP the magnetic N Pole a few years ago and now they have smaller mobile units. China has HAARPs on Iceland, Greenland, Svalbard who all knows, nobody. In orbit. The complexities are infinite, stability impossible. Volatility is the rule, adapt.

The last major reversal of the Earth’s magnetic poles, the Laschamp coincided with massive global climatic change. However from what I’ve read it isn’t obvious to me if the changes were solely due to a much weaker magnetic field, in which case the cooling would be fairly gradual when measured on time scales of centuries, i.e. time scales that would affect individuals, or if there were sudden large, long lasting drops in temperature caused by super volcanos which may or may not affect anyone alive today.
Professor Zharkova prdicted more volcanic activity a few years ago. A side effect of low solar activity on thw way to global cooling.
the climate and earthquake are and will be very soon a terrible threat for us and all forms of life but don’t ignore these dangers: for you and your loves one young or old

4.2 Quakes in Italy? Same thing at Mt St Helens:
You know, of course, that all Gov Scientists are working for Governments and like the film “Jaws” cannot close the beach during tourist season. I would pack my belongings, sell my house, and flee.
Friday, March 21 – Earthquake activity increased. University of Washington (UW) seismologists warned the US Forest Service that continued ground shaking from sizeable earthquakes could cause new avalanches. Although seismologists were suspicious the earthquakes might be related to volcanic activity, they did not say so publicly. Three new portable seismic recorder stations and one radio-telemetered seismic station were installed. These stations were needed to determine more precisely the location, and more importantly, the cause of the earthquakes. Seismologists also consulted with the US Geological Survey (USGS) in regards to the current earthquake activity. Over the next week, continued concern over earthquake-triggered avalanches would lead the USFS to close the mountain above treeline.
