Six Inches Of Rain Falls In The Texico Area In Curry Co, NM.

Image
Cannon AFB Doppler Radar 24-Hour Estimated Rainfall Totals. (As Of 11:01 AM MDT This Morning). A CoCoRaHS volunteer rainfall observer located 15.7 miles north of Texico, in Curry County, near the NM/TX state line, measured a 24-hour rainfall total of 6.05" as of 8 AM MDT this morning. Not far from this station (indicated on the map above by the blue 6.05" rainfall total) the Cannon AFB Dual Pol Radar estimated that a 24-hour total of 7.40" had fallen (indicated by the red dot). This total may be slightly high since it appears that the radar was over estimating rainfall totals in this area by 1.50" to 1.90".

Proposal For 15 New Doppler Radar Sites?

Image
Proposed Possible New Radar Sites. An article appeared today in the Washington Post written by Dennis Mersereau ( (Capital Weather Gang) )  talking about the ongoing gap in weather radar coverage across the US. We know all too well that this is a problem in New Mexico and parts of West Texas. A proposal to install 15 new radars nationwide could help us out here in southeastern New Mexico and West Texas.

Politics & Religion Marry For The Climate Change Agenda.

Image
Global cooling will follow El Nino warming - more risk on the downside. Recent poles indicate that most Americans aren't really concerned about Global Warming or Climate Change. Very few believe that this is an important issue that needs to be addressed. Like many other controversial issues facing us this one is way down on the bottom of most peoples priority list. 

Diminishing Solar Activity May Bring New Ice Age By 2030.

More On The Coming Global Cooling - Little Ice Age.

Image
I've followed David Dubyne's work for several years now. At first I didn't know what to make of him. But with time this guy is making more sense. His videos cover a lot of historical facts and include a lot of diverse information.   Think about this. What if this guy and others are right about the coming Global Cooking and the potential for another Little Ice Age. What is being done here in the Western World to prepare for it? The short answer is nothing. Does China know something we don't...or at least our government won't tell us? Its time to start asking the hard questions.  What if we have been lied to about Global Warming and Climate Change and something far worse has already began the process of starting?  Take the time to watch the videos below and make up your own mind.

Stand Up America Before Its Too Late!

Image
Pray For America This 4th Of July! Never before in the history of our great nation has our freedom come under so many attacks from so many angles. Leading the charge in these attacks is our very own government. Those on the Left who hate our traditional Christian foundation, and values, are charging full force ahead to fundamentally change America. If there ever was a time for all Americans to stand up and scream at the top of our lungs: "We've had enough of this and we're not taking it anymore", that time is now.  Stand up America before its too late!
