I seriously think the @ECMWF West African Monsoon simulation model is simply broken. Every day the 24 hour it looks the same. Very loopy.

Here are the GZ 20.00 19.00 18.00 and 17.00 model runs for 10 days accumulated precipitation.
GFS same four runs...
KMA same four runs...
And CMC three runs 20.00 19.00 and 18.00...

Of the four the CMC is definitely the most bullish on WMA volatility and strength. It has an interesting and very disruptive idea about the timing and strength of the next large trans-Sahara transit event.
Here is an animation of today's 10 day forecast of the CMC's West African Monsoon. It contains a lot of drama, the northern edge of the monsoon looks like a stormy sea. #AfricaRains #WestAfrica #WestAfricaMonsoon
The 19.00 model run provides a clearer picture of what is going on, especially when run a little bit slower.

X also throttles a lot of accounts so @elonmusk if you actually believed in free speech rather than just consider it a nice slogan you’d not allow Netanyahu and palantir to use it as a national security weapon
Also as long as you continue in your current path of obsequious Zionism you will shed readers like a waterfall
So @elonmusk what’s the quota of your read tweets that everyone on X has to reach in order to be rid if you constantly jumping into our threads uninvited and continue allow Zionist Israeli intelligence to use you as a global threat identification system to your fellow fascistic brethren

On the Interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla
The Wiley Fox didn't wait for the twelve-mile limit.
He struck two hundred and fifty nautical miles out in the deep blue. Right inside the Cyprus Search and Rescue zone under the nose of Akrotiri. Twenty-seven hulls boarded in broad daylight by tactical teams. The satellite streams jammed and cut to black while the global public watched the pixels freeze.
The Western military apparatus did what it always does when the cardboard rules are tested. They sat behind their high-grade radar screens and logged the telemetry. They did nothing.
But the Sovereign Witness operation of the Global Samud Flotilla was already achieved.

Bianca and the delegation forced the confrontation in international waters before the blackout hit.

The Fox needed a high-seas spectacle for his Monday session in the Knesset to scare his opposition, but he merely delivered the raw evidence to the forensic ledger. The hulls are under tow to Ashdod, but the narrative has already leaped off the deck.
"What is to be learned is that it is not the better cause that wins the earthly victory, but the better-fought cause." [10]

This forensic @cnn video presented by @kaitlancollins - detailing the events leading up to the 10 Shot attack on Minnesota Medic Alex Pretti is devastating and ought to be enough to seal the deal and END ICE now.

Collins copresses Trump over concerns from Epstein survivors youtube.com/shorts/IHXnZDw… via @YouTube

Her reporting on the Minnesota killing of Doctor
For the wider picture this from Nicole Wallace is also superb.

Finally CNNs Kaitlan Collins coverage of Epstein is also superb - especially her interview with one of the survivors advocates.

It appears that the insane and deeply evil manipulations emanating from the white house & Justice Department related to the now (but not really) released Epstein files are a complete cover up. Not only are survivors names unredacted effectively putting a target on their backs (my words not from the report….

… but the witness testimonies from survivors are in some cases maybe most of them - completely redacted.
Whilst driving today I listened to a lot of extraordinarily good reporting about mostly #ICE+MURDER & Intimidation the open congressional hearing is particularly good including astonishing accounts from other victims of ICE that are simply terrifying.

The U.S. constitution appears to be holding up at this point. But the drip drip of the Epstein files means President Donald Trump is looking increasingly impeachable and this will almost certainly trigger the begining of a premature end of @realDonaldTrump’s presidency. /1
Subpoenas of internal justice department officials will likely be the next step. And as there is bipartisan agreement on this there is no “get out of jail free” card on the table for those implicated in this horror show. /2
As the net closes in on the growing number of investigation suspects in this widening gyre it is becoming increasingly likely that the impact of this political events in the U.S.Capitol on politics across the entire U.S. will be seismic in scale.

This @nytimes New York Times report is startling in its implications. Trump appears to have won the dominance contest OVER @IsraeliPM Netanyahu, who has been it seems diminished within Israel politically as a consequence of @realDonaldTrump’s interventions.

I, for one hope very much that he succeeds in his objectives.
Very importantly Trump is holding the line on extremist Israeli efforts to annex the West Bank. Should Trump hold course the possibility of a real long term 2 state solution - with Israeli and Palestinian cooperation may yet come into view.

This from Max Blumenthal

:
Netanyahu’s Desperate PANIC & Massive Cover-Up Exposed via @YouTube
FWIW Max I think the next step is to look more closely at the Magdeburg and New Orléans terror attacks…. The Magdeburg one is especially suspicious abd the new Orléans one accompanied by Elon musk’s cyber car explosion are both linked to Elon.

He tweeted “only AFD can save germany” both before and after the Magdeburg attack
And the New Orleans attack modus operandi was almost identical to the attack in New Orleans
