Heat Wave Sweeps Across the U.S.

A shroud of high pressure has taken a foot-hold over the U.S. from the Plains to the Northeast, and with it has brought temperatures well into the 90's and 100's for half of the country. This animation shows the predicted daily high temperatures from NOAA's high resolution North American Model (NAM) from July 13-21, 2011.

Better get ready for next year! It will be worse. Start putting water reserves underground and protecting areas above ground. This winter may be a frozen earth in contrast to summer. Don't Panic. Things can be done. No more nuclear testing especially, by those not keeping the ban.Take measures to prevent over-smog polluting the atmosphere. Invent steps to replenish and protect the ozone layer and atmosphere! Replenish the ozone by seeding with only natural healthy methods. If not; many can die!
