Snow Collapsing Roofs!




TODAY show contacts Modern Survival Blog, Roof Collapse in Connecticut


Congratulations to Ken of MSB for the credit on the Today Show!

Having read a related article on ModernSurvivalBlog.com, the MSNBC TODAY show contacted MSB for contributing information regarding the Connecticut roof collapse events from the excessive snowfall so far, of Winter 2011, for a segment on the show.
This video is that segment followed by several still photos of some of the roof collapse events in CT, which can also be seen at the original post, Roof Collapse Chaos in Connecticut.
(I must say, it was rewarding to see a ModernSurvivalBlog.com credit on national tv at 1:27 into the footage)  ;)
Images are being updated as new events are discovered and photographed.
Be prepared. Clear your roof (safely).
It seems that a number of roofs were not engineered to carry the excessive weight of many thousands of pounds of accumulated heavy snow. Obviously the flat roofs are the most vulnerable.

Sudden Climate Change

Weather Patterns Can Permanently Shift Within A Year


ABRUPT CLIMATE CHANGE

Records preserved in a Greenland ice core reveal that weather patterns can shift permanently from one year to the next.

Excerpt ~
"The tendency of climate to change relatively suddenly has been one of the most surprising outcomes of the study of earth history,..."
~ End Excerpt

The time span of the past few million years has been punctuated by many rapid climate transitions, most of them on time scales of centuries to decades or even less. The most detailed information is available for the Younger Dryas-to-Holocene stepwise change around 11,500 years ago, which seems to have occurred over a few decades. The speed of this change is probably representative of similar but less well-studied climate transitions during the last few hundred thousand years. 


These include sudden cold events (Heinrich events/stadials), warm events (Interstadials) and the beginning and ending of long warm phases, such as the Eemian interglacial. Detailed analysis of terrestrial and marine records of climate change will, however, be necessary before we can say confidently on what timescale these events occurred; they almost certainly did not take longer than a few centuries.

Various mechanisms, involving changes in ocean circulation, changes in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases or haze particles, and changes in snow and ice cover, have been invoked to explain these sudden regional and global transitions. We do not know whether such changes could occur in the near future as a result of human effects on climate. Phenomena such as the Younger Dryas and Heinrich events might only occur in a 'glacial' world with much larger ice sheets and more extensive sea ice cover. However, a major sudden cold event did probably occur under global climate conditions similar to those of the present, during the Eemian interglacial, around 122,000 years ago. Less intensive, but significant rapid climate changes also occurred during the present (Holocene) interglacial, with cold and dry phases occurring on a 1500-year cycle, and with climate transitions on a decade-to-century timescale. In the past few centuries, smaller transitions (such as the ending of the Little Ice Age at about 1650 AD) probably occurred over only a few decades at most.
 All the evidence indicates that most long-term climate change occurs in sudden jumps rather than incremental changes.
