Blowing snow snarled travel across Kansas and Missouri as a winter storm made its way eastward.CreditCreditColter Peterson/St. Louis Post-Dispatch, via Associated Press By Julie Turkewitz March 3, 2019 DENVER — The call went up across America: Mother Nature, please have mercy. A punishing winter that has already produced record snowfalls and crippling temperatures in many areas sent another wave of severe weather blasting across the country over the weekend. Fresh snow buried cars and snarled travel from Denver to St. Louis, and behind the snow came a mass of air so frigid that the National Weather Service declared a wide area of the north central United States to be entering another deep freeze. The intense cold was expected to spread into the Mid-Atlantic states and the Northeast through Monday, and to stretch into parts of the Deep South by midweek. Ryan Maue, a meteorologist with weathermodels.com, said much of the country should prepare for an “all-week cold snap.” On Sunday, the National Weather Service also warned of severe thunderstorms moving across the South and Southeast. Tornadoes were reported in at least three states, with severe damage and at least 14 fatalities reported in Alabama.

>> "Mother Nature is firmly in control." >> Too soon to tell. I'd say that happens when the methane feedback kicks in. What will convince you. Methyl Hydrates bubbling out of the arctic ocean? Or perhaps methane releases and explosions in the Siberian permafrost. Here are some headlines strongly suggesting the methane feedback is kicking in right now... Starting with methane being released into the atmosphere. I will make a prediction right now. By 2050, the amount of methane being released by melting permafrost will dwarf today's releases. And by 2050, the human population will still be releasing tremendous amounts of CO2... strongly suggesting methane releases will continue to increase... naturally.
