Re: !!! ATTENTION!!! Compasses off Alignment right now by about 6 degress
Not that I have a real stationary compass but I did set one up a few days ago and noticed the same thing. Mine wasn't as precise on degrees although I estimated about 5.

I was so surprised I set up a second one jic it happens again.
 Quoting: Mr. Toppit



The difference is when I set mine up I zeroed it. Then some 12 hours later I discovered it had changed. I had already read about Tampa days before.

From Columbus,Ohio History;

In 1900 it was 0 Degree 15' W inclination....Truly North!

Today it's at 6 degree 40' W

speaking of Airports,


You should talk to someone from your local airport if you got one. I think they could give you the confirmation that would put this to rest no?

Pointing north I am reading 345/346 degrees right now....take into account the 8 degrees for where I live and it is 5 to 6 degrees off. Oh I am in ne Ohio so close enough to you OP.

So confirm here.

since you say you already knew, via that earlier link, that magnetic North can an does change very quickly and often by hundreds of miles, then, yes, an airport would be honest with you about where magnetic North is. Why would they try to hide a proven fact?

oh lord, people are so stupid. he just said that the compass is in the same location all the time, pointed to north, and its off six degrees, and you ask if it could be his posistion. My compass here in missouri moves around especially at night as well. Magnetic north is moving around alot these days.

The Lord is coming back to earth again.

In NM the Sunport in Albuquerque is undergoing "runway improvements" but its probably just a ploy to realign GPS equipment? They are temporarily shutting down the main East/West runway.

I see that clock is off but since the polar shift is in fact occurring, wouldn't that account for the current alignment? We know it's moving but until something catastrophic happens no one is going to believe us. rant

I'm not sure poster. Putting up here to see what kind of Post's we get. It took 111 years for it to go from 0 Degree inclination to where it is at today, 6 degree 40' W. For it to now be about 5 degrees off to the east instantly. That could mean something to someone here who needs this info to make something off.
