If these things are actually happening, wondering "why"is a big waste of time and energy...PREPARE, FOLKS!

Get your spiritual/physical houses IN ORDER!


I agree with your sentiments.

If i can understand the "mechanics" that will help me to explain to people if/when things get dire.

I would like to add, I believe God is the great mechanic he creates wheels within wheels. I think during the end days our "intellect and reasoning" will alert us.

On the down side (lol) God will create 3 days of darkness. I wold love to know if there is a mechanical cause of this but Jst the same I am happy to understand...If he wills it, it will happen.

Signs and wonders ! I would just like to be one of those who try to understand the signs.

Yes, exactly how I feel. If I have friends and family and I wanted to explain this to them, I need something to go on. Of course I post this here because I consider all at glp my friends, if you will. If it helps one person or family prep more ot even start prepping then that is a good thing. The spiritual side of this is just as important as any physical prep you will ever make.

Sunset today was supposed to be 5:10, it set at 5:33 23 minutes later. Same last Tuesday 23 minutes late setting.
Couldn't check Wed and Thursday because of rain.
I'll check sunrise in the morning.
Things are very strange.

LOL i like your name, I tend to over analyse as well.

To be honest its a well known British pasttime to moan about the weather. We had some incredible snow and cold temperatures.

Now here is an admission. I am a prepper. I prepped for extremes that the uk rarely have.

The ODD weather gave me chance to try out my preps, help my neighbours AND to chastise those who thought I was a bit overzealous and who had in the past quite honestly laughed at me.


Perhaps the bad weather you have had could be an intro to tell your neighbours about the odd sunrises.

Fellow Alaskan chiming in too.

I am in South Central also, the Valley, home to bizarre weather this winter.

OK, I will make a point about sunset/sunrise times. I had to argue this with a professional airline pilot who went on to become a commercial instructor....that the locations chosen to "observe" the rises/sunsets are arbitrary. That is, someone, way back when, was looking at a specific place and declared that vantage point to be the place official times were noted.

Living around mountains, its pretty easy to see that a person is going to have various sunrises, depending on where you are in relation to the visible (rising) sun. A person close to mountains would not see the sun as early as someone further away-and definitely behind someone with a higher elevation.

My logical mind wants the times to be coordinated to when the terminus crosses a specific spot, but that is not how its done. Then, you have to add in lengthy twilights on both ends too.

Now, I have the "normal" darkening in the afternoon, right on schedule. But I did notice that I could SEE the outline of Pioneer Peak at 7:45 in the morning, early this week. (Hey we had a clear sky!) This seems notable to me, but I have not been tracking this although I have worked at the same location for years.

OP, I think Jackie Purcell would be all over this, if it were true. Being able to see a twilight, is not the same as being able to actually see the sun....right?

I have no link, but I was just listening to the local newscaster and he said that the sun rose for 12 minutes today over Barrow Alaska. It wasn't supposed to rise until January 24, 2011.

[link to www.sunrisesunset.com]


I am sure that there has to be one person else who can confirm this besides my local weather guy.




I believe what could be happening is that the actual position of the Earth in relationship to the Sun, meaning, the distance between the two, is slightly changing.

See, right now, the Earth is at Perihelion to the Sun. The Earth reached Perihelion, around January 3rd or 4th of 2011. This is the Earth's closest approach (in distance) to the Sun. Now, if there are extreme Northern Latitude countries that are seeing sunlight earlier-than-usual, this would tell me that the Earth is getting even closer, just a little bit, to the Sun, during the Perihelion Stage. Why? Something is very wrong with the orbit of the Earth around the Sun. Like a slingshot, as the Earth inches closer in distance to the Sun, than normal, the Earth is speeding up it's movement around the Sun, while at Perihelion, but also increasing it's angular momentum around the Sun, giving the 'sling shot effect' more power. In essence, at Aphelion, around July 3rd, 4th of 2011, the Earth will be at a greater distance from the Sun, and it will prove to be a COOLER-THAN-USUAL SUMMER!!! This is what I see happening.

What is causing the Sun to rise, earlier-than-usual in extreme Northern Latitude countries? Either the Earth and Sun are now closer together at Perihelion, in distance; The tilt angle of the Earth has changed to become lesser, smaller than 23.5 degrees, or there is occurring a drastic change in the upper atmosphere of the Earth to where it's becoming colder, alot colder, and it's developing a whole lot of ice crystals. These crystals could be reflecting sunlight back onto the Earth's surface, to make it APPEAR that sunlight is coming earlier-than-expected, when really, it's an upper atmosphere problem, that could be caused by the Earth going into a deep cold. This could be caused if the Earth is moving away from the Sun right now, at Perihelion, increasing the distance between the Sun and the Earth, because of some kind of angular momentum anamoly. It's true though, most Northern Hemispheric Countries are experiencing colder-than-usual temperatures during this winter of 2010-2011. Perhaps the NASA Guy, Mike, was right! If the Sun is losing mass, that means the Sun is also losing gravity, as mass and gravity are directly proportionate. If this be true, this is the scenario where the NASA Guy talks about increasingly deeper and longer winters, with shorter, much hotter summers. Either way, we're in deep trouble. Crops are going to fail and the weather is going to be whacked out. You know the rest of the story from here...

It'll be interesting to see what happens, and which of my above-stated scenarios is the case. Will have to wait and see.

Peace and Blessings.

I don't remember it ever being this bright out at 5:30 -6:00pm in the evenings this early in the year.

Re: !!ALERT!! Barrow Alaska - The sun rose for 12 minutes today! (WASN'T SUPPOSE TO RISE TILL JAN 24!!!) Follows Greenland and Norway!
From the Arctic Post:

'False sunrise' whets expectations for sun's reappearance in Barrow

No, the sun hasn't made an early appearance in the nation's northernmost community, though a glowing mirage and misleading Internet information may have given the impression that round-the-clock night has ended for now, a weather official said...

Well, thanks for confirming that it is still set to arrive at least 1 to 2 days earlier then it was scheduled too. Tomorrow at 1:05 PM.

Can any astronomer explain what would need to happen for this to be true ?

I THINK i am seeing some odd changes here in the UK but dont have any details to back it up so it may just be a glp suggestion effect.


Would it be the relative POSITIONS of the earth and sun that would need to change ?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1210521



Relative positions the only answer? No.

Ok, here is a non-exhaustive subset of the possible explanations. Unfortunately, differing observational claims made within the thread do not lend to narrowing this list down much.

1) abnormal progression of our elliptical orbit around the sun (the 'perihelion thing')

2) a change in the oblate aspect of the spheroid nature of the earth. (slight deformation of the earths shape)

3) an increase in the apparent angular diameter of the sun. Various potential reasons for that but some get ... rather odd.

4) an increase in the Earths axis 'tilt' with respect to the ecliptic.

5) (doubtful as easiest to observe)- a change in earths rotation, or velocity of the earths orbit. (the 'days' thing)

6) a concave/convex oscillation in the entire solar system's ecliptic plane, (most likely, but not necessarily) centered on the sun. Could be caused by gravitational effects of a massive body entering, or passing through, the system at an oblique angle, OR less likely, passing by on a parallel plane. Consideration could also be given to our nearness to the galactic plane.

6a) a slow deformation of the planetary plane by factors such as in 6.

7) an external gravity wave rippling the above mentioned plane from afar. This would be a more like a linear transverse wave than the solar-centered oscillation mentioned in #6. (multiple possible variations of this theme, with effects from short term to nearly static)

8) somebody wrote, or is reading, the ephemeris wrong.

9) misinformation, which I fell for, and hence just ate 15 minutes of the rest of my life....

Anybody in the far south latitudes reporting a shorter day, or a later sunrise/earlier sunset than normal?

Thanks for asking....I am sure if us in the northern hemisphere is experiencing longer days of light, then the south hemisphere would be showing shorter days. I know there are a tons of Aussies on here...although I guess they are a little busy with the water to be looking up into the sky.
