I hope Dr. Francis starts looking at the destabilization of the stratosphere. It appears that a Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW) seems to be a persistent event as of lately. I still have not heard a decent explanation of the impacts of SSW event(s) outside their impact on future weather events. I BELIEVE that it will cause mixing between the two layers and I do NOT understand the impacts to any and everything. It is a BIG deal.

Remember a few years ago in early spring and in US bread basket of central US…in in less than 24 hours there was a almost a 100 deg temp change…it went from -50F to +50F. Also, in Rome GA two years in a row 2 nights got warmer than the days and all the vegetables stopped growing and didn’t start back.

Thank you for another great in-depth video 🙏🏽 I have a few questions. Knowing that the science is and has always been there and given that our government (US) has sold-out incrementally to private interests over the same amount of time as the science starting showing our effect on the environment, is it safe to say that if we want to save ourselves over maximizing profits, the future can't be capitalistic?

The weather is so weird now that the jet stream is screwed up. It's turning tropical here in New England. The trees in my yard started budding in February and this doesn't usually happen until late April or May. Very scary. Most people I know agree that "it just feels weird outside...it just doesn't feel right". There is this dark strangeness in the air. Dead birds are becoming common in my yard. Birds are acting strange and their bird song sounds like they are very stressed. Trees are rotting from their base due to excessive ground water and are falling over all over the place. I dread what is coming and what is in fact already here. Peace.

The Climate rollercoaster has left the station, and we're all along for the ride. It is the height of hubris to think we can do anything in the short term to fix the problem we created in the 20th Century and well into the 21st. Yes reducing the damage we are doing is paramount, but that is far from reversing any of the acceleration, of making the planet uninhabitable for a wider range of species.

Awesome interview. This is a strange observation, but the higher and lower temperature differentials that can strengthen (or weaken) a jet stream seem to work like a Stirling engine -- I guess that's just basic thermodynamics. You heat up one end of the chamber, and energy is transferred via the heated air until it is pushed back by the cold end of the chamber. With a machine, you can convert the energy input to power a piston, but with the atmosphere, it's powering the jet streams -- is that totally nuts?

Hot and wet on the east side, cold and dry on the backside.

Y the research of our own eyes + easy data access. Each of us is a research engine. Haunting to read hohum headlines 🥺

The earth's population has more than doubled over the last 50 years yet our CO2 is not included in output calculators.

Can we please quantify the "waviness" of the jet stream with the acoustic term "Q". The Q of a waveform is the height of the wave divided by the width.

FAIRBANKS, AK had -50F in Jan 24 and +44F in Feb 24. Good luck to all species. Afraid it will get tough soon.

In certain habitats they live in blissful unawareness. What they get is highly limited to their local bubbles. Making a number of videos covering every single continent and showing how it is interlocked with global weather and climate patterns is required.

Just the first explanation is the main thing to take with for me ! And not new even ...

Are there any predictions how much the equator would warm if a heat transportation system slows down? It's already hot.

Are we currently using any models that indicate the weakening of the geomagnetic field? Should we not be accounting for the increase in solar heating due to the depth in which charged particles are entering our atmosphere? It seems to me we are likely headed for a geomagnetic pole shift and need to change our approach.

With the rapid Polar ice melt, the earth's tilt of 23.5 degrees, could accelerate, back towards zero again. The tidal effect on the oceans, would also reduce, thereby increasing the daylight hours for the polar regions. It's all about the green planet returning and every square inch of the ground, will be vegetation. Happy Days

Of your machine learning categorized whiplash templates, some have an East West axis and others have a North South axis. Do these divisions correspond to the northern jet stream having deep amplitude waves and the subtropical jet stream intruding farther north?

you ain't seen nothin' yet.

This drastic volatility in patterns is a sign of systems in crisis or transition

So interesting! I like big picture weather forecasting, so the Jet Stream information really helps. Now I want a cheeseburger. ;)

Here in ireland we seem to go through very wet periods followed by largely dry periods in recent times etc. By Aug 2022 reservoir levels were well down due to plenty of dry weather for much of that previous year. Then September 2022 was like a flick of a switch. Since September 2022 for example its been a wet period overall. March and July 2023 was our wettest March and July on record ( I'm sure in the last number of months that El Niño has played a part). In the yr before September 2022 we were often dominated by a dry regime. I expect us to go back to often dry weather at some point this yr.

In this very moment we are under a warm wave event ...incrível São Paulo, Rio, and Paraná...

Gid bless you all , bye

Combined with this, the sun has longer cycles that we can't do anything about. These cycles also affect our ability to grow food. 400 year 2000year 6000 year 12,000 year....the Chinese think the desert in Africa will be green again and are building a railway as they plan to have a jump on growing food and moving it. I think making changes may help some, but learning to adapt and allowing ingenuity will be far more important.

Last year in july 2023 we had the most unsual summer in Denmark I can remember. It was very cold like in spring and very windy. It lasted for about 3 weeks. It was the jet stream holding on to this condition for so long and then it shifted to real warm and sunny weather afterwards for weeks. Right now here in april 2024 it seems to do the same thing. Later this week it will go from very cold spring condition to summer. The weather is acting so strange.🤔

What if you could stabilize the jet stream by creating large bubbles in the ionosphere using high-powered radio waves? Hot air would follow the bubbles hence changing it’s path.

Mark Twain or Samuel Clemens once said, ' Everybody talks about the weather but nobody can do anything about that'.

The whiplashing Dr. Francis describes is also represented, in bifurcation of logistic maps where initial constant is analogous to energy differentials (temperature) and feedback rates vary over time. I've done some modeling with discreet cellular automata and recognize some of the state transitions shown here. Not related to weather though. Understanding dynamical systems is necessary to predict the limits of chaos.

The question is about the jet stream being the land siniing pattern now or then. That the alternate is where the higher release of energy is reactive in lower ground by supportive spherical shaping or by a disrupted supported shaping. We know large waves were part ,but how vulnerable are the initial outer to inner limits are there recognized from space to earth and suns light?

What is the numerical correlation between weather whiplash and severe weather events? Thank you for your articles and informative presentation.

If the AMOC slows down more significantly, or shuts down, this will presumably halt the ingress of warmer N Atlantic water into the Arctic region. That being so, will this tighten up the loops in the polar jetstream & provide more stable (albeit colder) weather in the N Hemisphere ? Alternatively will this result in warmer troughs in the N Pacific being balanced by even deeper cold troughs over the Atlantic & Europe ?

@36:00 Wondering also how ICeland's volcano affects temperatures over Northern Atlantic ocean... It is said that is emits large amounts of SO2, that is one the main driver of aerosol dimming effects. SO2 creates white clouds that cools the area. A volcanic eruption that happens in wide area, because its nature and has not that high plumes, may create loads of low lying clouds. And eruption may go on for months, so effects could be seen over many months.

The use of tiny amounts of iron powder to fertilize the ocean life has been tried off the coast of B.C. on a small scale with good results and would not be expensive or difficult to implement at scale. That method along with a worldwide moratorium on whaling are very promising pathways of mitigation, since deep diving whales after each dive fertilize the surface layer of the ocean where oxygen producing, CO2 absorbing, plankton live. A third possible mitigation path is being investigated by MEER, using a low tech method which would be easily reversible.
