'Big Ones' striking USA - Confirming major extreme weather disruption long range* warning by WeatherAction for 11-15 April - *issued 27 March.
'Further intense events to come in next few days which will further surprise standard meteorology forecasts'
The massive destructive storms striking parts of the USA & Canada on 11th April confirm Weather Action's serious weather warning issued 27 March for parts of USA & Canada to be hit by 'massive disruptive weather events' 11-15 April.
'The internationally reported intense tornado destruction in Tennessee, firestorms in Oklahoma and floods in Dakotas on 10/11 April are all a consequence of the extremely active systems driven by special predictable sun-earth magnetic effects which we warned of for around this period at our 27 March Press conference. We expect over the next few days that extreme weather both sides of the USA /Canada border will further confirm the forecast in more detail. The events will come in more than one wave, precise locations uncertain', said Piers Corbyn astrophysicist of WeatherAction long range weather and climate forecasters.
'We are very pleased that the warning of notably intense events is being confirmed and repeat our warning that over the next few days the intensity of events will further surprise standard short range meteorology forecasts. The firestorms in Oklahoma were not specific parts of our forecast but are a consequence of the intense events and winds we forewarned for this period. This disruptive weather is caused not by mankind's CO2 but by predictable aspects of solar activity and magnetic effects on Earth', he added.
