Luke 21:25,26 NLT “And there will be strange signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. People will be terrified at what they see coming upon the earth, for the powers in the heavens will be shaken.”
It has been 101 years since this last happened. And it is “blowing the minds” of meteorologists. Eric Blake, a hurricane specialist at the National Hurricane Center (NHC), commented on the lack of hurricanes west of 55 degrees longitude in the Atlantic basin so far this season. Blake said this marks the first time there have been no western Atlantic hurricanes through Sept. 22 since 1914.
At the anniversary of Hurricane Rita in 2005 the compared numbers from 10 years ago is astounding. In that year there were 31 Tropical Systems, 27 named storms and 15 hurricanes. While 2015 has had several named storms, there have been no hurricanes this year at all!
Two factors working against hurricane development, wind shear and dry air, have been quite prevalent from the Gulf of Mexico into much of the Caribbean all summer long.
Hurricanes thrive off of rich, tropical moisture evaporating into the air from warm ocean water and cannot feed off of the dryer air. Wind shear, or the change of wind direction and speed with height, creates a hostile environment for tropical systems, as it too disrupts the ability of clouds and thunderstorms to organize in a way that supports the formation or continuation of a hurricane.
El Niño can be partially to blame. This setup features warming of the Pacific Ocean and is generally associated with unfavorable wind patterns across the western Atlantic.
Meanwhile in the Pacific Ocean warm and active atmospheric moisture has also been well above average in that area. The result has been nine hurricanes in the eastern Pacific, but zero in the adjacent western Atlantic.
With El Niño continuing and no signs of any major changes, the western Atlantic hurricane drought may continue for a while.
The Calm before the Storm
Awesome! I didn’t even know this. I knew that none have hit Florida this year and last. A hurricane really hasn’t hit Florida after Hurricane Charley. I didn’t know that the waves off Africa aren’t even turning into hurricanes! Pretty cool! I went thru the eye of hurricane Charlie in 2004 so when peak hurricane season occurs I will start to pray and fast, especially if I see a projected path over Florida. I will pray and fast for 3 or 4 days so they won’t hit me. We are just now at the end of the peak of hurricane season, usually the end of September is the end of the peak. The peak is usually the first 3 weeks of September. When you compare with the what the hurricanes are doing in the rest of the world, they are monster storms over by Japan, like over 200 mph winds and the fact that they basically are disappearing in the Altantic is pretty awesome!

hello everyone does anyone remember when Jim revealed that ” RESTRICTIONS” were coming to the USA, I think this was brought forth last September as the first Ebola patients
were brought to the USA. During the last Prophetic conference, one of the speakers talked about the new drivers license with biometric properties and how this would be used to control/restrict travel in the USA. Is this what Jim prophesied
