Hi YouTubers, I'm glad you're here.
Thank you for joining me today.
Here on Earth.
Nullschool. Net.
We can see the last 3 hours, hours
of precipitation for Australia and New Zealand.
They got El Nina going on this year.
Probably going to continue all the
way for the next six months.
And there you can see Australia, this
weather band that's heading towards them.
And here we have the wind.
You can see we got a small cyclone forming over here.
Here we have total precipitation water.
Yeah, look at this.
They're blaming it a lot on El Nina and the Jetstream.
Torrential rain slammed the west and northern New Zealand
South Island for a third day in a row
on Thursday today, forcing hundreds to evacuate their homes
and triggering road and school closures and landslides.
This is the inside of one person's garage there.
Coming after weeks of damp weather, the latest
rainstorms are worsening conditions in New Zealand already
sodden soaked landscape scientists have attributed the unseasonably
wet weather to a narrow stream of water
vapor or atmospheric river sitting above the country.
This is what they were expecting there as of 06:00 p.m.
Last night.
You can see this weatherfront now.
This is for Australia and the
forecast for Saturday, 09:00 A.m..
And this is today, Thursday, August 18, 220 and 1002.
Here we have an image.
I believe it's a water park after and before.
You can see how high the water has risen here.
And this is a chairlift.
One person that was on the chairlift
with her daughter said it was really
scary going over this fast running water.
And the sound was tremendous.
The met service there showed parts of north
of the south island have received over 300
rain, 11.8 inches in the past 24 hours.
On New Zealand's northern island, the country's largest city,
Aclan, is under a heavy rain and winds alert.
In the city of Nielsen, a
population of more than 50,000 residents.
230 homes there had already been evacuated.
Neilson City council website warned the
citizens that rain could mean more
landslides, flooding, and evacuations wastewater.
Overflowing has contaminated much of
the drinking water there.
A cold front is supposed to be pushing in
today, or already has pushed in because they're ahead
of us for a few hours and it's going
to go across parts of central Victoria and into
Tasmania and it's going to continue into Thursday night.
They said behind the very cold
front they could have possible thunderstorms.
Local hail along the south
coast, including for Melbourne.
Yes, look at all the mud that came
down from the mountainside here on Saturday.
They're saying a second cold front
would push through Australia on Saturday.
The warning for El Ninja means that the nation is likely
to head into a third year of a wet weather pattern.
Alaninia is associated with an increased chance
of above average rainfall across east and
North Australia during September and April.
With a lower or average rainfall for Western
Australia State, where the majority of the nation's
iron ore and wheat are produced.
Heavy rainfall, storms, flooding and saturated ground
in New South Wales and Queensland have
disrupted coal mining railing and shipping, as
well as coal bed methane development, despite
gas to export LNG and domestic products.
It also delayed the harvest in parts of
the state last year and caused large volumes
of wheat and barley to be downgraded to
feed grains from milling wheat and malting barley.
Australia's coal exports were down in the 21 22 fiscal
year to the 30 June compared with last year 2019
to 2020, which last year was not an El Nina.
The drop was despite record high thermal and metallurgy cold
prices during 21 and 22, which would usually result in
increased supplies if mining firms were not struggling with the
effects of flooding and water log pits.
Some mining firms have built more water storage over the
past year, although they are starting from a position of
more water on site than the year earlier.
The BOM has moved to Alanina Alert much earlier this
year than last year, implying that it was more confident
at this point than it did last year.
That another wet Southern Hemisphere spring
and summer is on the way.
So, yeah, we've got a lot of Earth changes happening.
Batanga volcano eruption definitely disrupted the weather, making
things much cooler there south of the equator,
and then we got the magnetic field of
the Earth weakening, changing the jet streams also
along with that eruption. Yeah. What are your thoughts?
Put those comments down below.
Thank you very much for watching.

Please stay safe and I'll talk to you later. Bye.
