During the super storm it was raining in copious amounts. Even today we see extreme events where over 70 inches of rain (January 7-8, 1966, Foc Foc, La Réunion) can fall in 24 hours. In a super storm there is at least that much rain falling and over a much greater area; and the surface winds blow hundreds of miles per hour. When the liquid atmosphere falls, all of the flooded areas freeze instantly while more ice and eventually snow continues to fall.
During the super storm, the hurricane winds are circling the entire Arctic Circle while there are also localized hurricanes occurring over Labrador and the Norwegian Sea. During this time the Earth looks, from space, much like Jupiter with its bands of clouds and its big red spot. Places like Siberia and Alaska get flooded and instantly freeze, but the severe icing takes place specifically over Northern Canada and the Norwegian Sea, which explains why the ice sheets don’t occur all the way around the Northern Hemisphere.
Due to the spin of the Earth, the oceans normally bulge at the equator. And so when water is drawn from the sea to feed the super storm, a greater proportion of water mass is transferred from the equator to the eye of the super storms where it eventually gets converted to ice. Since the ice is falling on only half of the Northern Hemisphere near the location of the super storm eye walls, the Earth suddenly finds itself a little off balance and begins to wobble. Also, a disproportionate amount of water mass is no longer at the equator, releasing pressure from the crust.
The Earth is like a large jelly ball. So with the extra ice weight in the northern latitude, the Earth’s crust compressed over Northern Canada and popped out at the equator where there is less weight. This sudden rise in equatorial crustal elevation pushes the oceans toward the mid latitudes, at about 25 degrees north and south of the equator. Ancient cities such as Atlantis in the Caribbean, Yonaguni near Okinawa, the cities off the coast of India, the Mediterranean, and Sumaria, would have been inundated with a sudden 300-foot rise in sea level. And of course, enormous earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis would accompany the Earth’s convulsions. According to the Atlantis legend, all this occurred in one day.
It is known that the Eastern Seaboard of the United States was once submerged due to the weight of ice over Canada. This explains why whale bones were discovered in Vermont. The whales died after the glacial advance, so it is safe to assume that the Northeastern United States was depressed and underwater at the time relatively soon after the super storm. This would result in the displacement of a tremendous amount of magma under the North American Continent. And just as pressing down on the crust would create a depression, a crustal wave would begin which crests further away from the ice mountain causing land to rise.
About 450 miles south of Vermont, opposite the mouth of the Hudson River is a very deep, submerged canyon that extends over 400 miles out into the Atlantic Ocean. In order for this canyon to form, it must have been above the ocean. And since the Northeast United States was submerged due to the weight of the ice mountain over Labrador, Canada, it stands to reason the Hudson Canyon rose out of the ocean during this time.
With such extreme geological activity, one would expect to see volcanism and large faults within the Earth in these areas. And this is exactly what we see from the GLORIA Survey. Also, the entire Eastern United States has evidence of numerous lava flows. Since the super storm is a recurring phenomenon going back millions of years, these Eastern United States lava flows represent super storm induced crustal buckling over a long period of time. The lack of volcanic cones in the Eastern United States is further evidence that these lava flows are "one-time" events associated with the uplifting and sinking of the Earth. People living in the Northeastern United States and who drive the Interstate system will notice the several "fresh looking" lava flows in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Pennsylvania, which the highways cut through.
In Africa, there used to be an extensive river system in Egypt where the Sahara Desert now exists.
The super storm theory accounts for all the known data present in the paleoclimate record and even fits many of the known legends handed down for over 10,000 years.
The significance of these events applies to today. Even if another super storm does not occur in the near future, we are still due for a further rebound of the Earth’s crust. Now that the ice sheets have significantly melted, Eastern Canada, which was pushed a half-mile into the Earth 11,500 years ago, is still springing back up. Also, the liquid water is returning to the equator and pushing down on the crust. Eventually we will see a sudden crustal movement as the equatorial crust pushes back down and draws the ocean water back toward the equator. Looking at a map of oceanic fracture zones on both the Pacific and Atlantic sides of Central America and the Caribbean provides the smoking gun to prove this theory.
We may be witnessing such a rebound in the equatorial and Caribbean areas of South and Central America, today.
Landscheidt Cycles(395) Back in 1965 Paul Jose was one of the first to link solar modulation with planetary movements. He discovered that the planets roughly returned to the same position every 178.8 years (My research suggests 172 yrs). Jose's paper included a very rough solar radius graph which showed some modulation but was difficult to draw from. Later Theodor Landscheidt wrote many papers using a similar principle but mainly relied on solar torque graphs which ranged over long time periods.
