Thanks To HAARP And The US Government: Giant Tornadoes Destroy Homes And Farms In Iowa
Don’t miss:
This large tornado funnel was filmed alongside a highway near the town of Fonda in Iowa late on Saturday.
It appears menacingly out of the darkness at each flash of lightning.
Although these drivers were unhurt, pictures from the area showed damage to homes, farm buildings, grains bins, power lines and trees.
A turkey farm was also destroyed by the storm. High winds tore apart a barn housing hundreds of birds, most which appear to have died.
The United States National Weather Service was on Sunday investigating reports of tornadoes in three north-east Iowa counties.
The same storm system spawned at least one tornado that tore through Mapleton in Monona County.

US: Freak Summer Storm Dumps Snow in Yonkers
… because of MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING!
Snow piles seen in Yonkers.
It was Christmas in July for some Westchester County residents.
A wintry mix of hail and heavy thunderstorms downed trees and utility poles in Yonkers last night — causing mountains of slush and ice to build up in parking lots and on grassy areas.
Police said at least two homes were damaged by falling sleet, which hit the area at 11:30 p.m.
Snow plows were called in early this morning to help remove the snow, while extra fire trucks were on hand to help with the unseasonal cleanup.
A section of the Saw Mill Parkway’s exit ramp in Yonkers was especially icy, causing cars to get stuck in as much as two inches of sleet during the early morning rush-hour.
Several residents called 911 last night claiming they had spotted a tornado, although local authorities could not confirm that a twister had hit the area.

30,000 Scientists Rejecting Global Warming Hypothesis
Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM)
Who: Dr. Arthur Robinson of the OISM
What: release of names in OISM “Petition Project”
When: 10 AM, Monday May 19
Where: Holeman Lounge at the National Press Club, 529 14th St., NW, Washington, DC
Why: The Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM) will announce that more than 31,000 scientists have signed a petition rejecting claims of human-caused global warming. The purpose of OISM’s Petition Project is to demonstrate that the claim of “settled science” and an overwhelming “consensus” in favor of the hypothesis of human-caused global warming and consequent climate damage is wrong. No such consensus or settled science exists. As indicated by the petition text and signatory list, a very large number of American scientists reject this hypothesis.
It is evident that 31,072 Americans with university degrees in science – including 9,021 PhDs, are not “a few.” Moreover, from the clear and strong petition statement that they have signed, it is evident that these 31,072 American scientists are not “skeptics.”

Tornadoes kill at least 22 across US
WASHINGTON (AFP) — US authorities rushed aid to disaster areas Monday after a series of tornadoes tore across the United States, killing at least 22 people, shattering homes and businesses, and leaving tens of thousands without power.
US President George W. Bush called it a “sad day” for devastated communities in the states of Missouri, Oklahoma and Georgia and promised emergency federal aid.
A total of 14 people were reported dead in Missouri, two in the southeastern state of Georgia, and six in Oklahoma, which earlier had reported seven fatalities. There were also scores of injured.
“We are still conducting some search and rescue today,” Susie Stonner, a spokeswoman for Missouri’s department of emergency management, told AFP, adding that some of the injured were “in hospital in critical condition.”
Numerous tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma late Saturday as the storms ripped across the state at 35-45 miles per hour (55-70 kmh), killing seven in the area near the town of Picher, the Oklahoma department of emergency management said. Some 150 people were injured there.
Fierce winds ripped roofs off houses, and other homes were thrashed to kindling as the storms downed power lines, utility poles and trees.
“In some cases, only a home’s concrete slab remains,” Oklahoma authorities said in a statement.
