Oh deer

Two souls tuckered

A deer and a man only hundreds of yards apart around the bend of the river, both trying to find some rest from heat 🤕 on the Nicola in Merritt on Sunday…

Merritt got rain Tuesday much improving many creatures outlook.

A poetic deer 🦌

A deer rests from some stress beside a river, on hard rocks, with some plastic at its rear. A velvet antlered two point takes the bush behind. Fall is coming. We may have made it with wild fires but what next.

El Nino

Weather comes from climate.

El Niño is a weather phenomenon that occurs every few years in the tropical Pacific Ocean. It refers to the warming of the ocean surface, which leads to changes in atmospheric circulation and weather patterns worldwide. During El Niño events, we often see increased rainfall in some parts of the world and drought in others. This phenomenon can have significant impacts on global weather patterns, influencing temperature, precipitation, and storm activity. It is an essential component of the complex climate system, and monitoring El Niño is crucial for understanding and predicting weather patterns on a regional and global scale.

An ancient affect

Weather systems have been affected by the El Nino/La Nina effects for perhaps thousands of years in the sense of humanity living at its consequences.

Nov 14th 2021

Flooding occurred in British Columbia that severely damaged infrastructure, crops, cattle, chickens, and caused a long-term evacuation of numbers of people something not used to by the people British Columbia.

Wind ward and lee ward sides of barriers to fronts.

We have seen the effects of barriers coming from the windward side, moist air from the Pacific Ocean and transferred into the clouds dumping huge amounts of rain in very short order just before the lee side of a barrier.

Temperature differences are sometimes mitigated by the drag effect of the currents that were created by El Nino as they continue colder water comes up from below surface to close to surface after the effect of the warm water going into the clouds is accomplished.

In particular British Columbia then can have some fairly good size pools of cold water in the Pacific this affecting our shores. Yes the increase in temperature globally including the amount of warm surface water coming out of the tropics is powerful and it doesn’t take rocket science, but more and better observation, to mitigate the effects of warm/cold water as it moves about.

Good luck and thank you Noah and:

New busses for Merritt.

The city of Merritt has received two new buses according to sources.

Weather

Environment Canada says that there are no alerts in effect at this hour. Mondays high temperature is forecast for 34°C. Dropping to 24 c Tuesday, with a 60% chance of showers.

Monday UV

The Ultra Violet index will be 8 or high. Take care.

Aurora borealis, 30 minute forecast (experimental) 👀

This is cool, 😎

The USA government organization Noah provides this online interactive display of the forecast of geomagnetic storms, these storms produce the effect that we know as aurora borealis. The storms are classified as space weather that are driven by storms on the Sun that sends particles over the poles of the Earth and affect our normal weather here on our Planet.

hi neighbor

Aberta forests 🌳🐺

Local office…

Rocky mountains a natural barrier.

Where we live and are able to function is often the result of time and it’s effect with weather systems that have secured an ecosystem for us. However too much human activity is often a basis of difficulties in the ecosystems whether that’s animals or great boreal forests.

This dynamic can be mitigated by general attitudes of local concern for ecosystems including forests boreal, rain or coastal whatever is in your power to do something is everything.

Most places like us have a local forestry office,they have information for the public, this with other medias and mediums is a prudent consult whenever dealing with our forest or ecology.

A Hydrogen filling station no longer in Merritt BC

The Bus Depo and truck stop had working hydrogen fuel up untill the emergency situation riddled the province in recent years.

Hydrogen worked with a lot of applications including, “Ballard fuel cells”

Ballard Fuel Cells paragraph AI-generated.

are an essential part of the technology that powers cleaner and more efficient vehicles. As a leader in fuel cell technology, Ballard has been at the forefront of the shift towards sustainable transportation.

The Trans Mountain Expansion project is a major step towards expanding Canada’s ability to transport oil to the rest of the world. While many have concerns about the environmental impact of such projects, it’s important to recognize the role that clean technologies like fuel cells can play in mitigating those impacts.

Hydrogen has worked with Ballard on a number of projects over the years, and we’re proud to continue that partnership as we support the development of cleaner, more sustainable transportation solutions.

Whether it’s through the use of fuel cell electric vehicles or other applications, we believe that hydrogen and fuel cells will continue to play a vital role in the transition towards a more sustainable energy future.

So as we look forward to the weekend and celebrate another successful week, let’s also take a moment to consider the important role that cleaner technologies like fuel cells can play in making our world a better and more sustainable place.

Hydrogen is a volatile gas, editor

The promos around hydrogen replacement are often centered on the fact that burning the element mate of water makes only clean water. The facts are hydrogen is a very volatile flammable gas. Way up there from propane and courser gases.

New Buses File Photo KDG

BC Transit operates a seven day a week Transit service. These bus vehicles rum on gasoline and never took advantage of either the hydrogen station above nor electric opportunities in the past few years. Yes the city is small however opportunities for research and development are a parent in a controlled environment.

Synopsis

The adaptability of the city of Merritt is demonstrated by the relationship of the TMX project hydrogen, electric and it’s clean energy 44 mega watt plant in city limits. Although hydrogen filling is not available here now the people who were cooperative and enduring are. As demonstrated by the words of a patron in the link on the bus photo.

They saved a park and made a plea, this will effect you and me.

The effect will stickle our bones, like meat and spuds do tickle.

Results may vary but stay not contrary, we do claim, to our fame.

To the layers fast and slow, the choice to go with the stayers.
