Editor’s Note:This article is written by James W. And does not necessarily reflect this website’s options and beliefs, but it portrays some scenarios that are likely to happen. There was a time when writing about the threats we face as a nation was little more than conjecture. Many long-winded articles often injected fear into the reader based merely on speculation. It was still plenty to get millions of us geared up and prepping. For that we must be grateful for these early doomsday writers. At this moment, we are facing division and unrest in this nation like we have never seen. You may be aware of the riots and demonstrations across the nation. ![]() These riots are turning violent fast! People of opposing views are being subjugated to nothing short of fascism in these isolated incidents. Without a doubt, we will see some very terrifying situations begin to unfold in states and counties very close to us. As the clashes between militant left wing groups and a law and order administration begin to heat up we will see the power of the government in terrifying displays as well as more violent tactics from the opposition. Dec 23, 2016. Make it a point to learn these skills in the new year to ensure you are ready to survive a SHTF situation. James Walton. By James Walton February 22, 2017 14:29. 3 Major Threats Facing the U.S. By the End Of 2017. The greatest threat facing the us by the end of 2017 will probably be civil unrest. This unrest has the potential to manifest itself in many ways. 18 Must-Know Hints for Novice Preppers Top 10 SHTF Firearms. Here are my predictions for Threats Facing the U.S by the End of 2017 1. Martial Law In At Least One Major City Due To Unrest There is no doubt that as our current president works his way through the “to do list” that these radical groups will only become emboldened. As law enforcement attempts to tighten its grip on these lawless creatures who seem to relish in the destruction of others’ property. These battles will undoubtedly result in the death of one or more rioters. This will only swell the numbers and embolden the rioters to destroy more property. If this happens in a major metropolitan city there will be very few options for those governing these areas. We will see a call into the national guard. This will result in a brief stint of martial law. Of course, this will not be reported as martial law. Just as the follow up to the Boston marathon bombing was not reported as such. Though, citizens were forced into their homes, given curfew and gun confiscation. The Emergence Of Militant Left-wing Terrorists Against Trump And His Supporters This one is kind of a cheat as the emergence of some radical left wing groups has already begun. My prediction is that as the year goes on and weather heats up we will see these groups make a transformation from radical left wing protesters to militant left-wing terrorists by the end of 2017. Three groups come to mind when I think of particulars. Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the following groups. Watch them as the year progresses. Black Bloc The Black Bloc is a group born of the Iraq war opposition who made quite a splash during the occupy wall street days. Their claim to fame is the destruction of private and public property with a penchant for the color black. They also played a part in the riots at Berkeley recently. BLM Whether the Black Lives Matter movement was hijacked by bad leaders or was planning on malicious intent from the beginning is unknown. We have seen them even attack other minority groups for stealing the spotlight. Though the men who assassinated police may not have been members of BLM they were no doubt influenced by the rising tide of the groups’ discontent. I have no doubts that we will see a more militant look from BLM as the year goes on. BAMN By Any Means Necessary is a strange organization that I have only found out about recently. They are an astounding group that models themselves off the phrase coined by Malcom X. Their tagline is Trump must go by any means necessary. Which, in my opinion, should have them disbanded immediately. These protesters were also part of those at UC Berkeley and will be big players in the low grade civil war that will carry on in this nation. We Could Even See The Removal Of Our Seated President And Riots Over This As Well Much talk is given to the threat of a rioting left wing that is unhappy with the president they currently have. ![]() That said, if we see the president impeached by anything but the most heinous accusation or worse if we see him removed BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY, i.e. Assassination, we could see a fire from the right wing. The right wing of this nation, the nationalist that is thrilled with the outcome could have their own uprising. Many like to think of this as a mere necessity. Some think of it as blood for the tree of liberty. I think of it as a worst-case scenario. Still, we cannot discount it. People have hatred for the rich man who runs the country and this chapter in American history could end with a terrifying conclusion The perfect storm would be the convergence of two rioting halves becoming whole and resulting in a serious fight that would be uncontrollable by police. There are people in our midst who are hoping for just this type of result. The greatest threat facing the us by the end of 2017 will probably be civil unrest. This unrest has the potential to manifest itself in many ways. Get prepared to day. ![]() ![]() Be ready to hunker down in the case of things like martial law or riots in your area.

WE DID NOT THINK THAT MARXIST COMMUNIST OBAMA WOULD LEAVE QUIETLY. WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOME OF YOU PEOPLE? PRESIDENT TRUMP WON BY LANDSLIDE! WE WANTED HIM TO SAVE AMERICA. IF YOU WANT A COMMUNIST COUNTRY, THERE ARE PLENTY AROUND TO MOVE TO. YOU USEFUL IDIOT. TRY A MUSLIM COUNTRY, IMOGENE, THEY WOULD LOVE TO RAPE YOU EVERY WHICH WAY, YOU FOOL. OBAMA, GAY MUSLIM, COMMUNIST. PHTTTTTTTTTTT •. Jeff; that is not trampling on the 4th. THESE PEOPLE ARE VIOLENT AND DESTRUCTIVE, THAT IS BEING A CRIMINAL. We have lived in a lawless land for so long, YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT A CRIME,,,IS!. BLOCKED ROADS IS NOT A 4TH AMENDMENT. THAT IS AN ASSAULT, ON WE THE PEOPLE. Amendment IV The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. Because the new ‘Powers-That-Be’ are ACTIVELY working on getting those rights taken away. There are men who want to go back to the 1950’s- when women were to be seen and not heard, when it was a ‘man’s world’-exclusively. (I don’t want to hear, nor will I respond to any trolls here. I’ve done my research while working on my doctorate. I am just answering a question here.) By keeping a woman ‘barefoot and pregnant’, you keep her subservient- dependent- upon the man. They are actively taking away reproductive rights- not only abortion, but birth control. Before you even THINK of replying, I am a US Woman’s Army Corps disabled Veteran. I not only LOVE my country, I SERVED HER for 12 years. And I joined as soon as I could. Before the fall of Saigon, Vietnam era vet. So I have put my ‘money’ where my mouth is. I’ve WALKED that walk, thank you very much. You asked a question, I answered. Where and what did you use for your “research”? Do you not realize that what we had for the past 8 years and what the alternative to The new “powers to be” was supportive to allowing Sharia Law into our country, that illegals have more rights that an American born citizen, rights that you defended, and has done everything to break the backs of the working class. No country will ever prosper by taking from a person that works for it and gives to one that doesn’t. Do some more research and you will find that Mr. Trump, as a private citizen, has more women in high ranking positions within his companies than any other businessman in the US. This country is so far away from keeping women barefoot and pregnant. They fill combat roles in our armed forces, doctors, business owners, etc. If they find themself barefoot and pregnant it was THEIR choice and THEIR failure to keep their legs together. And lastly, before you think of replying, I am an actual, “boots on the ground”‘ combat veteran of both Desert Storm and Iraq, a 30 year Army veteran. What kind of “rolls” did the Dems change to? Or did you mean “roles” which are the parts of life or society that one assumes? As for Dems changing position towards the true citizens of America – you know, the hard working, gave-their-lives, would-like-to-NOT-have-their-money-given-to-druggies-and-layabouts type of folks – OF ALL COLORS AND CREEDS, you liars and thieves haven’t changed a single lick. Not then, not now. Leopards don’t change their spots. PS Do you know where these tracks are where we can “change our rolls”? I’ve got some stale rolls I’d like to change out for some fresh lobster rolls! (Oh I’m making myself hungry!! Scally wag’ SO YOU ARE NOT INFORMED, EITHER ARE YOU? NOT PAYING ATTENTION? You will not get information watching the LEFT, LYING, MSM. ALL LIES, AND COVERUP, AND BACKWARDS WHAT DO YOU THINK HAS BEEN GOING ON? RIOTS, ROAD BLOCKS, YOUNG MEN DRESSED IN BLACK ATTACKING PEOPLE AND PROPERTY! ALL SOROS FUNDED AND BACKED BY OBAMA AND CLINTONS. SO, YOU ARE A LEFT AND IN DENIAL. That is the favorite thing for democrats to do, DENY! Why are you on this survival thread then? Go about your day, don’t prepare, let the RIGHT, who know what is going on prepare. BE AN OSTRICH. YOU WILL BE LUNCH, NEXT. I find the LEFT, liberals, democrats,, all USELESS. Dr x another left, lying RACIST, incredibly, dumb poster on here! You think you are malcom X? You are another DUMB BLACK posting on here. YOU HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED TOO. You all, want a communist country. GO TO ONE ALREADY, YOU FOOLS. THERE ARE PLENTY AROUND. Live in some communist muslim country, you will blend right in. We want freedoms. YOU WANT TO ENSLAVE WHITE PEOPLE, BEING A MUSLIM. EVERYTHING YOU POSTED IS BACKWARDS, BUT THAT IS HOW COMMUNISTS SPEAK,,ALL BACKWARDS. WE ALREADY HAD A COMMUNIST, DICTATOR AS PRESIDENT, AND HE DOES NOT WANT TO LET GO. YOU ARE ALL SUCH FOOLS. YOU BLACKS ARE THE REAL RACISTS. Democrats OWN divide and conquer tactics, so stop calling the kettle black. Liberals have been imposing their skewed values on the majority of Americans for so long through your evil judiciary you think the whole country is your personal playground. Well, that stopped on November 8th when the majority in each state told you “Hell NO” more of this insanity! You are all getting the pushback you so richly deserve and if more is coming, then you earned it through your black-hooded, street thug provocateurs. When the roles were reversed, you shunned conservative’s rational appeals and rubbed it in and played hardball. Now that you are on the short end of the stick, you desire “rational political discussion” while at the same time causing violence, destruction and chaos in our cities and on our college campuses. Trump isn’t causing the division, YOU ARE. You ARE the modern equivalent of Nazis Brownshirts. Jdp – “There has to be some middle ground both side have give.” Absolutely not. That is exactly how we got to where we are today. The lefties never give up ground willingly, and you have to give them credit for their tactics – if not their goals. The idiot right always wants to compromise in order to appear “reasonable”, while the left baby steps us toward gun confiscation, and a socialist/communist totalitarian government. No more compromises, absolutely none. We will never compromise our way to having our republic back from these traitors. No one started anything, EXCEPT, YOU LEFT DEMOCRATS WITH YOUR RIOTS AND ROAD BLOCKING, AND DESTROYING PROPERTY AND BEATING UP TRUMP PEOPLE. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM,,,,,THE RIGHT AND PRESIDENT TRUMP, ARE THE SOLUTION. YOU ARE ALL USEFUL IDIOTS AND BRAIN WASHED, BY THE COMMUNISTS IN CONTROL OF OUR COUNTRY. Now, I know what that wink by HILLARY was about to POS OBAMA. YOU ALL NEED TO BE DEPORTED TO SOME COMMUNIST COUNTRY, AS THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT. SUCH FOOLS AND IGNORANT. MUSLIM COUNTRY’S ARE COMMUNIST TOO. AMERICA IS FOR FREEDOMS AND YOU WANT TO CHANGE THAT TO COMMUNISM. Another ignorant, and LYING POSTER ON HERE. MEDIA, IS ON LEFTS SIDE, NOT TRUMPS. 8 YEARS OF OBAMA’S DIVISIVE TALK, AND TWO MONTHS OF PRESIDENT TRUMP, AND YOU THINK IT IS ON PRESIDENT TRUMP? Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol BACKWARDS AGAIN,,,YOU COMMUNIST SPEAKING POS! PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TRYING TO UNITE THIS COUNTRY AFTER YOUR, FRAUD, RACIST, MUSLIM, GAY, COMMUNIST, 6% BLACK PRESIDENT TRIED TO DESTROY AMERICA! YES, ALL IS ON BLM. FUNDED BY OBAMA AND SOROS AND CLINTONS. OH, I loathe all the BACKWARDS, COMMUNIST SPEAKING, LEFT, DEMOCRATS ON HERE. GAS LIGHTNING THE PUBLIC. YOU ARE TRULY EVIL PEOPLE, AND INSANE. Our “Founding Fathers”?? It was the white man who came here, raped the Natives, spread diseases, created slavery against anyone who was not white and stole the land from the people. So all you ignorant, self righteous, angry people who need to remember that this was not “our land”. America was obtained from the blood of the Natives and built on the idea that people came here to escape the freedoms that were taken away from them in their country. NONE OF YOU FU@+#RS BELONG HERE. So get off that high horse you stole from the Natives and remember that the men who created the constitution (what 200 + years ago) wanted freedom to live the way they wanted to. SO LET PEOPLE LIVE AND STOP SPREADING HATE. And just a reminder, Clinton WON the Popular Voteof course you will say that was rigged but as we find out more and more how Trump had the Russians in his pocket (or was it the other way around) all you HATERS can’t deny that Trump is the one who had it rigged. All you Preppers should do your Prepping and STFU! All you Lefties need to STFU too because you are all wrong! MAKE LOVE NOT WAR! I think that a great many people need to get their facts straight and not permit their own feelings to cloud their judgement. Not every white person or Trump supporter is racist, nor is every liberal or African American violent and bent on some kind of ‘they hurt my feelings’ crusade. Pray that there never is a second civil war or a loss of law & order within our country. Because once we reach that point, it will be every man for himself instead of what we have today- just a few bad people too scared to admit that they could be wrong making the rest of us look bad. In those days, everyone will be your enemy and there won’t be any discrimination. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS ALREADY REDUCED THE DEBT BY ONE TRILLION DOLLARS, IN THE BUDGET. A month ago, president TRUMP, REDUCED the spending by 500 billion, at the same point in time with obama. Obama was 400 billion on the hole, President trump 100 billion in the PLUS. So, to get a true figure, one needs to get that below zero number up to zero, then add to the plus number of TRUMPS, So, in actuallity PRESIDENT TRUMP IN ABOUT ONE MONTHS TIME, ALREADY SAVED US 500 BILLION DOLLARS. PRESIDENT TRUMP CARES, NOW CONGRESS IN ANOTHER STORY, MOST ARE PAID BY GEORGE SOROS. VOTE OUT THOSE RINOS AND DEMOCRATS WHO DO NOT SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMP. 44 DEMOCRATS IN MONTANA VOTED FOR SHARIA LAW. NEW REPORT EXPOSES 6 TOP REPUBLICANS ON SOROS PAYROLL! GUESS WHO’S BEING PAID TO STOP TRUMP? John Kasich, John McCain, L. Graham, Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, then some guy I never heard of maybe a muslim name? Chuck Schumer. He also mentioned, JOE HECK, in Nevada. Records: Soros Fund Execs Funded Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, John McCain, John Kasich, Lindsey Graham, Joe Heck and more,in 2016 •. Many campers, hikers, RV enthusiasts, and Doomsday preppers alike all realize the importance and usefulness of portable solar power. For emergency preparedness, an evolution to more solar power usage has occurred primarily because portable solar panels and related solar-powered products are now relatively inexpensive, compact, lightweight, safe, easy to use and they provide a surprising amount of long term renewable power and versatility. Plus having a sustainable source of power can be extremely important for long term survival in the wilderness or if the power grid goes down. Most people are aware that there are many threats to the power grid in the US including terrorism, natural disasters and economic collapse. Our power grid is very vulnerable due to outdated technology and lack of adequate security. At any moment, our nation could be taken back to the way life was in the 1800s. We could lose the benefits of electric power that we all take for granted, except for those who are now smart enough to make advanced preparations that include solar power. In a post apocalyptic world, solar power can increase security, productivity, and the well being for survivors. Having an adequate amount of solar power products in a Doomsday scenario can mean the difference between light and dark, feeling safe vs. Not feeling safe, and even having cooked food vs. Uncooked food without alerting others. Solar power can provide an improved ability to build and create, it can allow you to be more productive, and it can even mean the difference between life and death. If there does happen to be an extended or permanent nationwide blackout, you will be much safer and happier if you have planned ahead to include solar panels, rechargeable batteries and solar powered products in your emergency preparedness survival preps. For those Doomsday Preppers concerned about an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) that would destroy all unprotected electronics including solar panels & products, all of these items can be protected in simple Faraday cages. For example, you can construct your own Faraday cages with metal garbage cans lined with cardboard and bubble wrap inside. If you are lucky enough (or rich enough) to have large home solar power systems you are way ahead of the vast majority of US citizens. This article is not about the options available for home solar power systems, but is instead about some of today's best options for affordable portable solar power. T oday's portable solar products are great for everyday use right now whether you are hiking, camping, traveling in an RV, or at home, and they serve the dual purpose of providing power solutions for emergency power outages and even for a longer term Doomsday scenario. The portable solar panels & solar powered products pictured below are some of the best, affordable, and useful products available today for everyday use, emergencies, camping, and hiking. But they are also great preps for Doomsday preppers who understand the importance of solar power for a long term survival SHTF scenario. Even though these are our top 10 favorite solar panel products in order, all of these are very useful and we had a hard time putting them in order. Any one of these could be your #1 depending on your priorities. We prioritized our top picks in order based on their usefulness as a long term Doomsday survival prep taking into account their functionality, size, and cost. If your priority is lightweight portable lighting, #3 should be #1. If your priority is total power supplied for a home or Bug-Out location and cost & size is less of a factor, then items #9 & #10 might be your #1. Also, we would have reordered these solar products based on usefulness for c amping, hiking, and short term emergencies and some of these would not even make the list for camping & hiking. If you really want to be prepared with emergency power solutions you may not want to limit yourself to just one or two solar products and to just single quantities. • Summary • Pros • The best affordable compact foldable solar panel that can charge 12V DC automotive & marine batteries, smartphones, tablets, head lamps, portable ham radios, power stations, power packs & more. It is everything you need in one small package. • Inexpensive for a compact portable quality solar panel, controller, connectors & adapters. • Included waterproof controller that can charge 12V DC batteries simultaneously while you charge up to two of your other electronic devices. • No additional battery is required for charging external devices with this unit. • Three output ports including one 12V DC port and two 5V DC USB ports. • Included connectors and adapters that you will need to charge most power packs or any other 12V DC battery using the alligator clamps. • Equipped with four of the highest efficiency mono-crystalline panels. • Cons • Not the highest wattage portable solar panel (but gets the job done without breaking the bank) • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario, the would provide a portable and reliable way to charge many essential electronics (power tools, lighting, shortwave & ham radios, head lamps, etc.) and non-essential electronics (fans, razors, hand blenders, etc) that a prepper might really need or desire to use. In a real SHTF scenario, 12V automotive batteries could be scavenged, and the Instapark 27W Solar Panel plus a quality power inverter such as the would be simply invaluable. Without preps like these, electrical power will be sorely missed. In addition to scavenged 12V automotive batteries, the portable power station is a perfect companion to the Instapark Mercury27 for camping, emergencies or even in a real Doomsday scenario. Included are additional pictures, features, specifications, Youtube video, recommended accessories, and owner feedback. • Summary • Pros • Very portable and lightweight. Outstanding for camping situations. • You can bake potatoes, cakes, cook whole chickens, steaks, MREs, boil or pasteurize water with it, cook your emergency bulk supply of dried beans & rice, and much more. • This oven gives off no smoke and you can do other things while your meal is cooking instead of tending a fire. • Can reach temperatures of up to 285 F and is highly portable folding down to the size of a seat cushion and weighing just over 2 lbs. • Includes a water pasteurization indicator (WAPI) that will tell you when water is pasteurized. • Comes with collapsible black cookware. The silicone pots collapse to 0.875' thick and are good to 485 F. The pots are dishwasher, microwave, and oven safe. • Cons • If it is very windy, you may need to put bricks or rocks inside on the corners to help keep it from blowing over (not a big deal really). • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a end of the world Doomsday scenario, the would provide a way to cook food, boil or pasteurize water without having to tend to a fire and have an increased risk being spotted by others due to seeing or smelling smoke. This solar oven and cookware are also easy to transport and clean. Having the ability to work around your camp doing other things while your food cooks mostly unattended is a huge advantage versus maintaining a fire. You can fix your shelter, gather food & water, etc., using this solar oven and remain hidden from far away eyes. Granted, you'll still need to build fires to remain warm and cook at night depending on the weather, but there will be plenty of times that you will be glad to have one of these solar ovens. Included are additional pictures, features, specifications, Youtube videos, recommended accessories, and owner feedback. • Summary • Pros • Surprisingly bright and compact solar rechargeable light. • Great for camping, during a power outage, or for everyday use as a powerful flashlight or task light. • Very inexpensive, compact, weighs almost nothing (0.33 lbs.) and will easily fit in your Bug-Out Bag. • Designed as a replacement for kerosene lanterns for rural off-grid households in developing countries. • It only takes approximately 6 to 8 hours to fully charge. • Will charge even in indirect light. • Rated for 4 hours, but even after 7.5 hours it is still putting out usable light. • Will last longer than 5 years with no battery replacement. • The solar light dimensions are approximately 3-3/4' in diameter and 1' thick • Has a removable adjustable handle that can be detached, carried, hung or placed on any surface. • Can replace all of your flashlights. • Rugged design protects against weather, impacts, dust & insects. • Completely maintenance free rechargeable batteries never need replacing. All other components are also maintenance free. • 2 Year Warranty • Cons • Not really a con, but you will want to buy a lot of these once you buy and use one. This amazing little solar light is one of the best preps we can recommend. We have at least two of these in each of our vehicles, Bug-Out bags, day packs, home, and Bug-Out location. Removing the handles allows you to more easily pack several of these in a Bug-Out bag, day bag, or backpack. • Not truly waterproof. They are 'water resistant' meaning they can take some wetness, dew or a light shower at least. In the reviews people report leaving them out to charge without regard to the weather and they survived getting wet from rainfall. • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario or even a power outage, the last thing that you want is to be left in the dark. The are simply fantastic. They put out a surprisingly bright light for tasks but you'll also be amazed at how well they can light up a room for hours instead of being in complete darkness. They don't take very long to charge using only 100% solar power compared to other solar lights, and these do not cost much at all. These amazing lights are very bright and they easily recharge everyday even in indirect light. They are super light (0.33 lbs.) and have a removable adjustable handle so they are easy to position for lighting and also for charging. Having several of these in your vehicle and bug-out bags means that you'll never be without light for many years. We depend on these lights as the best solar lights we've seen and we own/have owned many other models and these win hands down for lighting. Included are features, Youtube videos, owner feedback and other models. • Summary • Pros • An entirely portable solar panel charging system in one! Also available in a smaller 60 Watt version. • Lightweight suitcase equipped with two 50 Watts monocrystalline panels, a 10 Amp ViewStar Series Charge Controller with an LCD Screen for power regulation, a 10ft. • Compact design makes it very portable and versatile. 100 Watt version folded size: 20 x 27 x 3 inches. • German made solar cells have excellent performance in weak light environments and yield better energy over the long run. • Adjustable corrosion resistant aluminum stand, heavy duty handle and latches for longevity, and protective casing. • 10A built in negative grounded charge controller with LCD display and fully adjustable parameters setting provide over-current protection, reducing fire risk. • Alligator clips for simple and direct connection to battery. • The low-voltage system avoids electric shock hazards. • Can recharge your 12V DC batteries for power needs in everyday situations like for RVs, tailgating, and camping, or even for Doomsday preppers in a long term survival scenario. • This kit is that it is already put together, and it folds into an easily portable suitcase, and is therefore easier to move around and store when not in use. • This one is ready to go. Just put it in the sun and clamp it your 12V battery posts with the already attached 15' battery cables with alligator clamps. • Cons • You do have to buy a DC to AC power inverter separately and have 12V DC batteries to charge, or you can buy a Power Station and possibly connectors for it but that's it. • Note: Sometimes the manufacturer has an option to ship this package without the Controller. To buy the exact controller, here is the link to the. This would require that you install & wire the controller, but that's pretty easy to do. • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario, for the exact same reason we noted that preppers need our top rated Instapark Mercury27 Solar Panel, a prepper would desire the to charge many essential electronics (power tools, lighting, shortwave & ham radios, head lamps, etc.) and non-essential electronics (fans, razors, hand blenders, etc) that a prepper might really need or desire to use. The basic difference is that Renogy is larger and more costly, but is also almost 4 times more powerful so it will charge batteries faster. If you can afford the Renogy and the larger size is okay, then it may be a better option, or do like we did and buy both! They are both excellent choices. Included are additional pictures, features, specifications, Youtube videos, recommended accessories, and owner feedback. • Summary • Pros • An off-grid must have. Keeps your smaller battery powered electronics working for a long time in a Doomsday survival scenario. • Charges 11 different NiCd and NiMH battery sizes (AAA, AA, C, D, and 7 GUM sizes). • Charges two Rechargeable Batteries of the same type and size (D, C, AA, AAA) simultaneously. • Charge time is between 1 and 9 hours in full sun depending on the battery size. Two AAA batteries will charge in 1 hour, two AA batteries will charge in 3 hours, two C batteries will charge in 6 hours, and two D batteries will charge in 9 hours. • Adjustable top lid and bottom stand for optimal sunlight exposure and a blocking diode to prevent battery discharge. • Compact size. Weighs 11.8 oz. And is 6.8' W x 4.5' H x 2.3' D. • Hinged cover can be angled for maximum sun exposure. • Built-in meter shows you the following conditions: The strength of the sun, the strength of the current out-put from the solar panel, and the time required to fully charge the different types of batteries. • Cons • Not waterproof. • May have to move it a few times to maximize charging. • Takes a long time to charge a lot of batteries (but that should not be an issue as all of your devices will likely not require new batteries all at the same time, and you can share batteries between devices if needed while charging more). • Summary • Pros • High quality, but inexpensive. Better made than most similar models available. • Very compact (2.1'D x 6.2'L x 2.9'H) and lightweight (0.89 lb.) • Waterproof Level: IPX3, can be used during rainy weather (see Cons). • Receives AM/FM & 7 NOAA Weather Channels • Bright LED Flashlight with adjustable beam focus and SOS signal • 4 LED Reading Lamp • Speaker is surprisingly loud. • 2000 mAh rechargeable battery supports long working times for lighting and radio including about 12 continuous hours of the LED flashlight or reading lamp or 4 - 6 hours for the radio. • Charges your cell phone or other USB chargeable device (such as a headlamp) via the USB cable. • Battery can be recharged by the solar panel, hand crank or Micro USB. • 1 minute of hand cranking supports 25 minutes of light and 10-15 minutes of radio power. • Has AAA battery backup capability. • A selector switch on the front allows you to choose whether to use the three AAA batteries, or the built-in lithium-ion 2000 mAh hour battery. • 45-Day Money Back Guarantee, 12 Month Replacement Warranty, Lifetime Support Guarantee. • Cons • Waterproof level could be better. IPX3 means you can spray your gear up to 60° from the top of the device. It cannot be submerged in water, but it can be sprayed from above (up to a 60° angle) with the device in its standing position. So it would survive most rainy weather if it remains standing vertical. • Solar panel is more useful to keep the device power topped off, although several hours in the sun does provide enough power to use the unit for a short time. The hand crank is amazing though. • Difficult to tune weak channels. • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario the is the Swiss Army Knife of solar power! This is a high quality, phenomenal piece of emergency gear that serves multiple purposes. Without a doubt, every home should have one in their emergency kit. When disaster strikes, there are several critical components that help during recovery. Communications, information, lights, emergency power, to name a few. The RunningSnail Emergency Solar Crank Radio offers all of these features with a few extras, to boot! It is an excellent tool to have on hand following any disaster. With less than a minute of cranking, you can listen to the radio, use the flashlight, and read with the reading light. • Summary • Pros • Perfect security lighting for your garden, backyard, deck, porch, patio, pond, veggie patch, driveway, or any outdoor location that needs a light. • Higher quality and more reliable than many other comparable models. • Inexpensive. • Completely contained maintenance free system installs easily and quickly to a wall, post, fence, or tree. • No wiring necessary. Just insert a small pin to turn it on before you mount it. • It only takes 6-8 hours to fully charge in direct sunlight and provides up to 12 hours of continuous lighting with a single charge. • Will charge in indirect light. Since it is usually not on continuously, it typically works fine even after cloudy or rainy days. • Night sensor only allows solar light to come on during the dark. • Infrared Motion sensor states it has a sensing range of 10 feet with a 120 degree sensing angle. However, one of ours is placed about 14 feet up from the ground and it lights up an impressive 25 feet circumference. The motion sensor activates when you get about 12 feet from it. • Surprisingly bright light turns off 30 seconds after motion detection has ended. • IP64 waterproof and works in temperature extremes found from Arizona to Alaska. • Lightweight (4.7 oz. Each) • Solar panel life span: 5 years - LED Life Span - 50000 hours. • 2 year warranty. • Cons • Only one mounting hole. Can be mounted with one nail or one screw. Drill additional mounting holes if needed or use black zip ties to assist in mounting to a pole or tree branch. • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario the would provide security and could be used in multiple ways. The obvious use is to light your pathway and to scare off trespassers. However, if SHTF, two more uses of these lights are possible for defense and for hunting. First, put these out away from your home, bug-out location or campsite, so that approaching trespassers are 'lit up' away from you. You would still be in the dark, armed and ready to defend yourself if needed. For another use in a Doomsday situation, one of these could be placed on a game trail at night, while you are hidden nearby and ready with your firearm. Note: Spotlighting deer is illegal in normal times like today. • Summary • Pros • Rugged, 100% maintenance free construction. • Rainproof & waterproof to 45 feet. • Inexpensive. • Lightweight (0.56 lbs.) & Compact (1.8'D x 5.8'L x 2.45'W) • Two charging methods - hand crank dynamo or solar panel. • Easy to keep the battery charged between normal use by either cranking the hand dynamo or placing the flashlight in the sun during the day. • 3 Function LED – One LED, Three LED’s, Three LED’s Flashing • Never needs any batteries or cables to recharge. • Charging / Run times • 8 hrs to fully charge in the sun = 4 hr run time • 1 hr sunlight charge = 120 min low, 90 min hi and 140 strobe. • Hand crank for 1 minute = 80 min low light, 60 min high light and 110 min strobe light. • 5 Year warranty. • Cons • No output port for charging other devices. If you need that capability, this is not the flashlight for you. • Solar panel output is low so it can take 8 hours (or more) to fully recharge the flashlight when the battery is completely discharged. Depends on how much direct sunlight you have available. The hand crank will quickly charge the device though, so the solar power slow charging is not a big deal. • No indicators (LEDs) to show battery level or if unit is charging when cranking the dynamo or when placed in the sunshine. • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario the would provide lighting for preppers at anytime, even outside in a rainstorm. This is one flashlight that you will not need to worry about getting wet in a bad rain storm. • Summary • Pros • This is an all-in-one emergency power solution with enough power for even power hungry refrigerators, microwaves, heaters, and more. • 5000 Watt Peak Solar Generator can be used for back up power, camping, tailgating, emergencies, blackouts, & Doomsday. • It can be used indoors because it has no noise or fumes. • 5000 Watt Peak/2500 Watt Continuous Power Inverter • (2) 100 Watt Solar Panels Have 25 Year Warranty • 200 amp hour battery bank (two 100 AH batteries) for long run times on lighting and less power hungry devices. • 30 amp Charge Controller For Fast, Reliable Charging • Rugged & Portable Case with Wheels. • Comes with 30 feet of solar cable for connecting the panels to the unit. • Can expand capacity by adding more Solar Panels and/or batteries if needed. • Cons • Expensive, but a great value AND it qualifies for the 30% Federal Tax Credit. • Bulky and heavy, but still portable. • Because of weight, the generator and batteries will ship separately. Simply place the batteries inside and connect two sets of wires. • Continuous running of power hungry devices will likely cause the need to expand capacity by adding more Solar Panels and/or batteries, so that would add more costs. Two 100 Watt Solar Panels Are Included With The Be Prepared Solar 2500 Watt Solar Generator • Why a Doomsday Prepper needs at least one of these. • In a Doomsday scenario the will power refrigerators, microwaves, heaters, and more. Any combination of appliances and devices that total under 2500 Watts can be powered simultaneously. It can be used indoors because it has no noise or fumes. The unit is perfect for backup power in any emergency or blackout.

Othello is a more enigmatic figure: a Christian convert, a dark-skinned military hero, a Moor — a vague term that catalyzes fantasies and anxieties about Islam and Arabs, Africa and blackness, courage and lust.

Jun 16, 2017. The quality of mercy can in fact be strained, especially when it comes to the fate of a central character in one of Shakespeare's greatest plays. Notwithstanding its oft-quoted proverbs and ingenious plot, “The Merchant of Venice” continues to spark controversy over its depiction of the Jewish money-lender. Jul 11, 2017. ”So he will always come back from his pound of flesh,” Shylock refers to the business of lending money for outrageous interest rates.It's origin is drawn from Shakespeare's, “The Merchant of Venice.” This high risk business has gained popularity over the years,that those who practice it are easily reach.

Venice uses the former for economic reasons, the latter for military ones, and then ultimately discards them. As long as Othello and Shylock are needed, they are called by their names. When they are rejected, they become, simply, “Jew” and “Moor.” One gives up his religion; the other gives up his life. Then, as now, the foreigner is exploitable and disposable. One morning I received a call from an amiable person who had invited me to speak at a school on Holocaust Remembrance Day about my family’s surviving the deportations. He thanked me. Then he added that he wanted my advice: “A friend needs to buy a big quantity of gold. Since you are Jewish, you should be able to help.” I was dumbfounded: This was not an anti-Semite; he had performed his civic duty of commemorating the Shoah. The long shadow of Shylock still shrouds the history of the real Venetian Jews, those who were bound to provide loans of 3 ducats or less and were forced to pay a rent higher by one-third than the Christians. “The Merchant of Venice” and “Othello” continue to be relevant also because they are not contemporary, showing us where we come from as much as where we are. They remind us that racism, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia are distinct but interlaced forms of intolerance and they have a history. They caution us against our temptation to cancel these texts from our canon, curriculums and stages. They may hurt and unsettle, but every time we may feel tempted to put our civilization on a higher moral pedestal, they evoke a past where being Jewish, “Turk” or black was an official stigma. To stage “The Merchant” outdoors, next to the plaque commemorating the 243 Venetians deported to Auschwitz, took the concerted effort of an international community of scholars, an enlightened Jewish leadership, theater lovers and supporters, sympathetic residents and the talent of great actors guided by the director Karin Coonrod. The performance in the ghetto was a beautiful artistic and civic moment. Shakespeare’s Venetian plays carry both the disease and its antibody. They sum up deep-seated stereotypes about Jews, Muslims and blacks, and simultaneously unsettle them, inviting the exploration of these cultures. For better or worse, Othello and Shylock have appeared so real and lifelike to both scare and enthrall their viewers. We read of shocked spectators jumping to the rescue of Desdemona or fainting when Shylock whets his knife. On the other hand, actors have historically invested a great deal of energy into studying and observing Jews and blacks to make their Othellos and Shylocks more realistic. Jewish and black actors have historically claimed the roles to make them their own. In the background of these reactions, we register the feelings of shame and pain experienced by many Jewish and black viewers. “The Merchant of Venice” and “Othello” are ultimately ambivalent documents of our civilization, having been both instruments of intolerance and agents of cross-cultural understanding. Every time they are staged or taught, viewers and readers have to think through the implications of the plays anew. As I write, boats loaded with migrants and refugees are coming to Italy by sea, seeking better prospects or, simply, survival. We brought “The Merchant” to the ghetto; at the other end of the city lies the Arsenal, once the most impressive shipyard in Europe, now a silent expanse of water in a city suffocated by tourism but seeking in art a better future. SHYLOCK [aside] How like a fawning publican he looks! I hate him for he is a Christian, But more for that in low simplicity He lends out money gratis and brings down The rate of usance here with us in Venice. If I can catch him once upon the hip, I will feed fat the ancient grudge I bear him. He hates our sacred nation, and he rails, Even there where merchants most do congregate, On me, my bargains and my well-won thrift, Which he calls 'interest.' Cursed be my tribe If I forgive him!

But the Seahawks may have been trying a bit too hard in the first half, trailing at halftime. “We just needed to get them calmed down,” Peninsula coach Ross Filkins said. “There’s just so much emotion in this game. We’ve got a fair number of players that are under the Friday night lights for the first time. It’s still pretty early in the season. So it’s hard. There were a lot of people here tonight, it was very loud and some of our kids lost their composure and focus. So I felt good if we could just get them to halftime, get everyone calmed down and on the same page.” Whatever sage wisdom Filkins imparted to his team in the locker room during halftime must have resonated. Peninsula exploded in the second half, cruising to a 31-21 victory and winning its second straight Fish Bowl. Junior running back Braeden Potter ran for 98 yards for the Seahawks on 16 carries. Potter and Foreman offer contrasting styles at running back for Peninsula. “They’re both doing a really good job,” Filkins said. “Potter is a little more physical, Foreman is a bit more of a slasher. So they complement each other really well.” Gig Harbor quarterback Ben Hollenbeck was explosive once again for the Tides, going 12-for-22 for 191 yards and three touchdowns, and adding 82 yards on 16 carries. But Peninsula capitalized on three Gig Harbor interceptions, including one Potter took back 36 yards for a score. “I think our turnover ratio was at zero, which is weird for us,” Filkins said. “We really wanted to flip the script there and fortunately, we made some adjustments defensively. Fortunately, we were able to get a little bit of pressure there and our DB’s did a great job jumping some routes.” Two of Gig Harbor’s receivers had big nights — junior Ryan King tallied 101 yards and a touchdown on three catches, while senior Kellen Gregory caught six balls for 66 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Gregory also had what way may have been the play of the game, hauling in an impressive one-handed catch to convert a third and 27 in the second quarter. Penalties were an issue for both teams. Peninsula drew 16 flags for 147 yards. Eight of those were holding calls, which stalled several Peninsula drives throughout the game. “Those holding calls, and dropped balls — you can’t keep any continuity doing that,” Filkins said. Gig Harbor had 12 penalties for 80 yards. Daniel Araya - Seven Sister Ep (CWS014) by Daniel Araya, released 17 March 2017 1. M45,[1] Seven Sisters 3. 3h 47m 24s 4. 444 ly on average 5.

The cluster stretches across two of the 42 charge-coupled devices (CCDs) that make up Kepler’s 95 megapixel camera. The brightest stars in the cluster – Alcyone, Atlas, Electra, Maia, Merope, Taygeta, and Pleione – are visible to the naked eye. Kepler was not designed to look at stars this bright; they cause the camera to saturate, leading to long spikes and other artefacts in the image. Despite this serious image degradation, the new technique has allowed astronomers to carefully measure changes in brightness of these stars as the Kepler telescope observed them for almost three months. Credit: NASA / Aarhus University / T. White The Seven Sisters, as they were known to the ancient Greeks, are now known to modern astronomers as the Pleiades star cluster – a set of stars which are visible to the naked eye and have been studied for thousands of years by cultures all over the world. Now Dr Tim White of the Stellar Astrophysics Centre at Aarhus University and his team of Danish and international astronomers have demonstrated a powerful new technique for observing stars such as these, which are ordinarily far too bright to look at with high performance telescopes. Their work is published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Using a new algorithm to enhance observations from the Kepler Space Telescope in its K2 Mission, the team has performed the most detailed study yet of the variability of these. ![]() ![]() Satellites such as Kepler are engineered to search for planets orbiting distant stars by looking for the dip in brightness as the planets pass in front, and also to do asteroseismology, studying the structure and evolution of stars as revealed by changes in their brightness. Because the Kepler mission was designed to look at thousands of faint stars at a time, some of the brightest stars are actually too bright to observe. Aiming a beam of light from a bright star at a point on a camera detector will cause the central pixels of the star's image to be saturated, which causes a very significant loss of precision in the measurement of the total brightness of the star. This is the same process which causes a loss of dynamic range on ordinary digital cameras, which cannot see faint and bright detail in the same exposure. 'The solution to observing bright stars with Kepler turned out to be rather simple,' said lead author Dr Tim White. 'We're chiefly concerned about relative, rather than absolute, changes in brightness. We can just measure these changes from nearby unsaturated pixels, and ignore the saturated areas altogether.' But changes in the satellite's motion and slight imperfections in the detector can still hide the signal of. To overcome this, the authors developed a new technique to weight the contribution of each pixel to find the right balance where instrumental effects are cancelled out, revealing the true stellar variability. This new method has been named halo photometry, a simple and fast algorithm the authors have released as free open-source software. The unique brightness fluctuations of each star reveal clues about their physical properties such as their size and rotation rate. Most of the bright stars in the Pleiades are a type of variable star called a slowly-pulsating B star, but Maia is different, and shows evidence of a large chemical spot that crosses its surface as the star rotates with a ten day period. Credit: Aarhus University / T. White Most of the seven stars are revealed to be, a class of variable star in which the star's brightness changes with day-long periods. The frequencies of these pulsations are key to exploring some of the poorly understood processes in the core of these stars. The seventh star, Maia, is different: it varies with a regular period of 10 days. Previous studies have shown that Maia belongs to a class of stars with abnormal surface concentrations of some chemical elements such as manganese. To see if these things were related, a series of spectroscopic observations were taken with the Hertzsprung SONG Telescope. 'What we saw was that the brightness changes seen by Kepler go hand-in-hand with changes in the strength of manganese absorption in Maia's atmosphere,' said Dr Victoria Antoci, a co-author of the work and Assistant Professor at the Stellar Astrophysics Centre, Aarhus University. 'We conclude that the variations are caused by a large chemical spot on the surface of the star, which comes in and out of view as the star rotates with a ten day period.' 'Sixty years ago, astronomers had thought they could see variability in Maia with periods of a few hours and suggested this was the first of a whole new class of variable stars they called 'Maia Variables',' White said, 'but our new observations show that Maia is not itself a Maia Variable!' No signs of exoplanetary transits were detected in this study, but the authors show that their new algorithm can attain the precision that will be needed for Kepler and future space telescopes such as the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to detect planets transiting stars as bright as our neighbouring star Alpha Centauri. These nearby bright stars are the best targets for future missions and facilities such as the James Webb Space Telescope, which is due to launch in late 2018. Explore further.

Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images For Entertainment Weekly Paris wore Calvin Klein, her tattoos and rather awe-inspiring beauty serving as her most noticeable accessories; she took group selfies in the bathroom; she wore to the after-party. The defining Paris of this generation has arrived. Furthermore, now she's, playing an edgy 20-year-old named Penny who's in some way affiliated with criminals (how very in The Town!). ![]() The Amazon Studios film doesn't have a title yet but it does have an impressive cast that includes David Oyelowo, and. We could go on forever about what a modern 'It Girl' is, and we're fairly certain that hotness and envy-inducing street style has something to do with it. Not to mention that certain je ne sais quoi. But what sets Paris apart from the pack is more definite. For starters, rare is it that a famous family has so far preceded an aspiring actor/model/artist into the spotlight (no wonder Paris and Kendall were fast friends), making it all the more imperative for the kid to distinguish herself on her own. And Paris' family tree is more rooted in pop culture lore than most, her late father,, and aunt being two of the most iconic performers of all time and the very phrase 'Jackson family' bringing to mind all sorts of history and headlines. Even beyond all of that, Paris was harshly schooled in the pitfalls of public life early on—first when she lost her dad, and then when her suicide attempt at 15 and subsequent hospitalization seemed to prove that the specter of tragedy was still haunting the Jackson family. Unlike a lot of the starlets lighting up Instagram, she comes to It Girl status as a longtime celebrity, one whose personal struggles already played out publicly at a tender age, one who's experienced heartbreaking loss, one who's had to, one who never had the chance to just be 'Girl.' But Paris isn't sitting around lamenting her lack of anonymity. Instead, she's ready to get to work, utilizing every weapon—name included—in her considerable arsenal. 'I was born with this platform,' she. 'Am I gonna waste it and hide away? Or am I going to make it bigger and use it for more important things?' We already know the answer.

It’s important to be able to tell the difference between the and something more serious so you can get the medical attention you need. If you think you have 'just a cold' but are concerned it could be something more, it’s best to err on the safe side and visit your doctor. This is especially true if you have a chronic condition such as, severe,, kidney disease,, or an autoimmune disease. The same goes for pregnant women and anyone under age six or over 65—the common cold affects these groups of people differently and can be more serious than it is for healthy individuals. We spoke to doctors to find out what symptoms tip them off that it’s more than a. Here, the red flags they look for. The common cold tends to clear up on its own in three to four days, says Melisa Lai Becker, MD, site chief of emergency medicine at Cambridge Health Alliance. It starts with a scratchy throat, congestion, and runny nose, and then a cough usually develops. While your cough and post-nasal drip may linger, most should disappear after four days. 'With a cold, you ultimately feel okay after a couple days of rest, hydration, and Kleenex,' she says. If symptoms last for longer, it’s possible you have something more worrisome, such as the flu or mononucleosis. To be safe, make an appointment with your physician. If you thought you recovered from your illness but your symptoms reappeared shortly after, it could be a sign of a rebound illness or 'superinfection,' says Navya Mysore, MD, a primary care physician with One Medical Group. You may have had a cold initially, but once your immune system was compromised, you developed something more serious—think strep throat, pneumonia, or a sinus infection. Book an appointment with your GP to determine whether or not you need additional treatment, such as antibiotics. It is possible to have a fever along with a cold, but they’re not common—especially high ones. If you have a fever at or above 101 degrees Fahrenheit, it could be a sign of strep throat, says Dr. Most patients with strep will develop a high fever in the first few days of illness, so be wary of sudden spikes in your temperature. 'Strep throat is one thing you really want to distinguish from a cold,' she says. 'Left untreated, it can cause rheumatic fever and lead to serious heart problems.' Another red flag it’s more than a cold is a “localization” of symptoms, meaning you feel them in one specific area, explains Dr. While a cold affects the whole upper respiratory system, other illnesses are characterized by intense symptoms in one place. ![]() ![]() ![]() Oct 26, 2017. In addition, spending on prescription drugs and over-the-counter products increases during the winter months, according to a recent article in USA Today (7 Ways to Meet the Costs of Cold and Flu Season, October 17, 2017). While cold weather certainly doesn't cause a cold or flu, we tend to experience it. Flu season already! Make sure you are safe from any flu symptoms, with the help of WeatherBug's Cold and Flu Activity Map. For example, Dr. Lai Becker points out that strep causes a sore throat so bad it’s difficult to swallow, but typically won’t cause pain throughout the body. Sinus infections can cause headaches and even make your teeth hurt, an ear infection will usually cause pain and congestion in one ear, and mono can cause swollen tonsils. It can be hard to distinguish allergies from a cold, since they have similar symptoms. But allergies will often follow a pattern, says Dr. If you notice your symptoms are worse after spending time outside or with a pet, or they tend to come and go with a certain season, you likely have allergies. “I had one patient who thought he was sick, but the real story was that he was allergic to a cat,” Dr. Lai Becker says. To pinpoint the exact cause, keep track of your symptom history and see if you notice any trends; it could mean you’re allergic to something or have seasonal allergies.

AccuWeather meteorologist October 23, 2017, 1:02:06 PM EDT The winter season will start mild across Germany and end with shots of bitter cold, taking residents and visitors on a roller coaster ride. While mild weather will be welcomed by those hoping to enjoy a few more weeks of outdoor activities before cold arrives, it will be accompanied by bouts of rain and wind. A few of these storms have the potential to bring significant impacts ranging from travel disruptions to flooding rain and damaging winds. 'These storms will also bring a heightened risk for coastal flooding to northern Germany,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Tyler Roys said. The most likely areas to endure flooding and damaging winds will be across western and northern Germany, particularly from Bremen to Hamburg and Flensburg. While a windstorm is possible anytime during the winter, the highest risk this year will be during December and January. The mild start to winter will last through January before cold air begins to make appearances from building high pressure over Scandinavia. As this high strengthens, cold air intrusions from Russia will increase, especially during February. RELATED: The presence of this colder air will also heighten the risk for accumulating snowfall at all elevations and also bring the risk for a significant snowstorm which will carry over into early spring. 'Even if the arrival of accumulating snow is delayed this winter, total snowfall will be around normal,' Roys said. The threat for late-season snow could also cause widespread travel impacts, according to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alan Reppert. The ski season may only be slightly impacted by the mild start to the season as the high elevations could benefit from the above-normal precipitation, which will also occur in December. While it will not be cold enough for lasting snowfall in the lower elevations most of December and January, the ski resorts throughout southern Germany and the Alps will see frequent snowfall. 'Snow over parts of Germany and the Alps looks to be quite heavy for the end of the season, and this may keep ski slopes open longer than usual into the spring,' Reppert said. |
