A
small inlet connects two year around wetlands. The area is teeming with
life bot large and small. I have heard of cougars and personally seen
one coyote. Of course there are hundreds of ducks of many species and
same with geese and a very rare swan which I have pictured nearby. The
picture is taken from above on a cement road..This in order to follow
the laws which do not allow civilians in the refuge. After all it is
supposed to be safe harbor for many if not hundreds of species.

The
changing Aspens seem to be around and near wetland areas of Turnbull
although I have seen them away and not near wetlands. This one was especially pretty. Patty and I were driving around and around to get
the right position.

A newly discovered asteroid will pass "very close" to Earth on Sunday, NASA says.
The space rock is
estimated to be 60 feet (18 meters) long. It's expected to fly over New
Zealand about 2:18 p.m. EDT (11:18 a.m. PDT / 18:18 UTC.)
It won't hit Earth or any
of the thousands of satellites orbiting the planet, NASA says. It will
give astronomers and scientists a chance to study it.
Blanche ask, "Do you think snow? Or Indian Winter"
WALLOPS ISLAND, Virginia – Missions flown from the NASA base here
have documented some of the most dramatic evidence of a warming planet
over the past 20 years: the melting of polar ice, a force contributing
to a global rise in ocean levels.
The Wallops Flight Facility’s relationship with rising seas doesn’t end there. Its billion-dollar space launch complex occupies a barrier island that's drowning under the impact of worsening storms and flooding.
NASA's response? Rather than move out of harm’s way, officials have added more than $100 million in new structures over the past five years and spent $43 million more to fortify the shoreline with sand. Nearly a third of that new sand has since been washed away.

When is the best time to see auroras? Where is the best place to go? And how do you photograph them? These questions and more are answered in a new book, Northern Lights - a Guide, by Pal Brekke & Fredrik Broms. |

CHANCE OF STORMS: NOAA
forecasters estimate a 25% chance of polar geomagnetic storms on Sept.
6th when a CME is expected to deliver a glancing blow to Earth's
magnetic field. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras. Aurora alerts: text, voice
VOLCANIC MOONSET + AURORAS: A few days ago, pilot Brian Whittaker was flying over Iceland when he saw a strange plume
poking through the cloudtops. "It was the active fissure eruption of
Holuhraun associated with the nearby Bardarbunga Volcano," he explains.
"Air traffic control reported it actively erupting to the north of the
giant Vatnajokull Glacier and Grimsvotn Volcano which closed European
airspace back in 2011."
Last night Whittaker flew over the area again, in the dark, and this time he witnessed a very different scene:
"About 500 miles southwest
of Iceland I recognized a much redder then usual Moon set, especially
with its reflection upon the ocean below," he says. "I strongly
suspect that it was caused by the recent releases of volcanic dust and
aerosols from Iceland."
Whittaker also saw a band
of green auroras slashing across the sky, a possible preview of the
weekend ahead. A CME is expected to sideswipe Earth's magnetic field on
Sept. 6th, sparking Arctic auroras visible through the dust. Aurora alerts: text, voice
MORE ASTEROID NEWS:
While 2014 RC grabs headlines this weekend by flying under Earth's
belt of geosynchronous satellites (see the news item below), astronomers
are training their telescopes on another, weirder asteroid also in
Earth's neighborhood. 2002 CE26 is a binary asteroid consisiting of a
primary space rock 3.5 km in diameter and a secondary approximately
one-tenth as wide. What's weird is, radar data suggest that the
secondary space rock might have a moon of its own. Alberto Quijano
Vodniza of the University of Narino Observatory in Colombia photographed
the triple system streaking through the constellation Pegasus on Sept.

Couple of things come to mind reading the article. This is the work of interactions with glaciers AND A STRATOVOLANO. This type of volcano is what Krakatoa was. When it ended in being heard thousands of miles, killing some 30-40 thousand people, it went down in history. Now......
This strato volcano in Iceland is over a magma chamber. Somewhere in the notes, the gentleman points to the possibility that this large magma chamber MAY be sitting on top of a second much larger and deeper chamber. My mind immediately thought of Yellowstone but that was just my wandering mind. If scientists of high caliber and experience don't know, then I most certainly do not. FINALLY..
What this activity had to do with my prediction? I have no clue. I'm in uncharted territory. My notions deal with the Pacific although my incoming energy applies to the world. I have a hard enough time with areas of the west coast and the Ring of Fire. There may be large magma chambers but a lack of headroom for the brains it would take to understand. Mea Culpa. I have no clue except to say, it is most certainly a fireworks show of grand proportion.
TONGUE IN CHEEK, my wife said half awake as I read her the article. "Maybe they had better throw a couple virgins in there at this point". She didn't even come close to being serious but harking back to her college geology textbooks. At this point, she is on it and I'll bet she will stick through this one.

Another Easter Island 6M earthquake with 5.8M aftershock today, with continuing quake activity in Puerto Rico and Iceland.
The MST for Easter Is quake is SW/NE, and aftershocks are on that line.
California Central Valley continues to have very small quakes.
Note Moon milestones coming shortly:
Perigee 9/08 03:30 UTC (one of the closest of the year)
Full Moon 09 01:39
Equator SN 09 15:31
More 6M+ quakes are possible for the next week.
