EARTH CHANGES

2014 FORECASTS
As we edge into the New Year, promise of better days may be ahead. The
news of more jobs and higher wages, health care perks for uninsured people, and
stock market numbers soaring are a pleasant surprise and could continue to do better
than expected during times of growth.
Despite the past doomsday predictions that didn’t
happen, extreme climate changes may challenge people around the world. Severe weather
including abnormal cold winter temperatures and snowstorms, flooding in the
spring, wildfires in the summer, and out of whack fall happenings will keep
people talking around the globe.
Speaking of chatter, political games with Democrats and Republicans will
continue and another government shutdown is possible causing major social
unrest if it happens. Potential wars (perhaps linked to Syria), and a potential
shocking Whitehouse shake-up, and a few man-made disaster scares may disrupt
the new sense of calm.
While 2014 may bring us more
good news than bad, ups and downs will keep us alert, lend to stronger family
ties, and more self-reliance and less trust of the government. Take an up close
peek at what else I see for the upcoming months in the New Year.
A Mixed Bag of Predictions for 2014
1. Earthquakes
* While in 2013 the
West Coast didn’t have a significant earthquakes, rare stranded sea creatures
in Southern California surprised people around the world and may be signs of a
future significant shaker and tsunami.
* At least one major
shaker is likely on the West Coast, including Alaska, Washington, on and Offshore
Northern California, the San Francisco Bay Area and/or Greater Los Angeles as
likely areas to rock.
* The Indian Ocean may produce a major
quake and tsunami but not as severe as December 26, 2004.
* The New Madrid Zone may be rocked by
a major quake disrupting the Midwest and make international news.
2. Weather Events
Climate chaos will not exclude extreme
cold winter temperatures in both United States and Europe. The Reno-Tahoe
sierra may get early winter flooding if hit with a significant precipitation. Springtime
flooding/mudslides will affect regions throughout the world that were blanketed
by heavy snowfall. The California-Nevada and/or Pacific Northwest will get more
snow than it has in past years; the Midwest and Northeast endure heavy snow as
other non-snow regions may be rudely awakened by odd storms, twisters, and
hurricanes.
3. Health Care
While Obamacare began with a rocky
start, more people will jump on the health care bandwagon and take advantage of
lower premiums and preventive care options. It will not be perfect but the
change may be better expected. The government will gain more control with
health issues as we see changes in the making pointing the finger at unhealthy
trans fats, sodas, fake foods and some prescription drugs will be zapped or
more controlled.
4. Economy
Unlike 2013, people will
begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel with both more work and more money.
Recession recovery will affect more folks (of all ages) and consumer confidence
may rise. This year, more people will change jobs, think outside of the box to
help make ends meet, and feel more positive about their financial future.
Seniors will be postponing retirement and choose to work for the money due to
living longer, more quality lives.
5. On the Fringe
While we endure erratic
climate change, a strange happening may occur. It could be that more fish in
the Pacific Ocean will show spooky changes linked to radiation of the great
Japan earthquake and tsunami—and it may affect our food supply. Also, a
commercial airline disaster en route in America or Europe could happen in the
winter due to weather conditions. Volcanic activity in the United States as
well as at least one region in the Ring of Fire could wreak havoc on land and
force mass evacuations.
In 2014, the overall year
will seem calmer than in the past but that isn’t to say we will not have some
unpleasant surprises. However, during turbulent times—and there will be some, President
Obama may win back his reputation due to a savvy decision. The bottom line: Mankind
around the world will persevere, and bond more than ever before.
[SIDEBAR]
2013 Prediction Misses and Hits
·
Alaska
was rocked by many moderate earthquakes but no great shaker occurred; widely felt earthquakes hit
Offshore Northern California, San Francisco Bay Area, Central and Southern
California but no major events happened.
·
People did become more
health-conscious by staving off diet sodas and trans fats. Plus, while slow to
take off, people are signing up for Obamacare to get health care benefits.
·
While talk of falling back into recession was abuzz,
it did not happen. The global financial crisis continued but some industries did
do much better than in 2013 and show recovery.
·
Wildfires did
occur during the summer and air quality was greatly affected in California and
Nevada.
·
There was
a drop in national unemployment, pros and cons continue with Obamacare aka
Affordable Care Act, and new jobs
increased.
