STORMS HURRICANES-TORNADOES
LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(MASS CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;(FIERCE WINDS)
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

Winds were still building, with the St. John's airport recording hurricane-force gusts of up to 131 km/h, while waves were reaching 10 metres at an offshore buoy.There were widespread power outages in St. John's and communities along the southeastern coast of the Avalon.The western portion of the province was also being doused with heavy rains, but Robichaud didn't have rainfall totals even though rains of up to 150 millimetres were expected.

ST. JOHN’S, N.L.—Post-tropical storm Leslie
belted Newfoundland on Tuesday, unleashing hurricane-force winds on a
large swath of the province’s east coast and drenching rains in the
west.
Officials with the Canadian Hurricane Centre in Halifax said the centre of the storm made landfall at around 8:30 a.m. local time in Fortune, N.L., following its anticipated track to the Burin Peninsula.Meteorologist Bob Robichaud said the potent storm was buffeting areas around St. John’s with winds that gusted up to 131 km/h, causing damage to roofs, trees, roads and widespread outages.“There are very strong winds to the right hand side of the track,” he said in an interview. “We’ve seen some fairly heavy, intense rainfall as the storm was approaching and one of the things we’re looking closely at are the winds.”The centre initially said Leslie was a tropical storm when it made landfall, but later said it was a post-tropical storm.The St. John’s airport recorded hurricane-force gusts of up to 131 km/h, and a buoy in Placentia Bay recorded waves exceeding 12 metres.Power was knocked out throughout St. John’s and communities along the southeastern coast of the Avalon, and flights at the airport were cancelled.Striking airport workers who briefly picketed outside braved powerful wind gusts that picked up a port-a-potty tied down by a rope.“This is my first time taking strike action and I guess the weather just makes it a little more interesting,” said Steve Piercey, a building maintenance worker originally from Fortune, N.L.“We’re used to weather like this. At least a couple of times a year we get big storms. This is par for the course, being a Newfoundlander. We’re tough.”
Piercey was working at the airport almost two years ago when hurricane Igor hit on Sept. 21, 2010.
Igor seemed much worse, he said.Inside the airport, stranded passengers gazed up at electronic boards red with cancellations before the power cut out and they went black.“On the Trans-Canada (Highway) it’s windy. It’s almost like the wind’s going to push you off the road,” said Christopher Cumby, who drove into St. John’s from the Trinity Bay region. “It’s not really bad rain-wise but the wind is really bad.”Cumby was trying to make his way back to Fort McMurray, Alta., for work, but his chartered flight was delayed.
“Nah,” he said when asked if the weather scares him. “I might get to stay home an extra day.”The RCMP tweeted a photo of a truck blown over onto its side on the Trans-Canada Highway, west of St. John’s.The City of St. John’s issued a notice early Tuesday that all municipal buildings, except City Hall, were closing for the day due to extensive power outages. Schools and some health clinics in the area were also shut down.
Sirens wailed in downtown St. John’s as emergency crews responded to exploding power transformers, downed electricity lines and increasing wind damage.Tree branches blocked several roads and there were multiple reports of roofs being partially blown off.Some residents faced the blustery weather to take pictures of trees uprooted in Bannerman Park.“It’s pretty intense,” said Holly Walsh, who was out storm chasing after classes for her therapeutic recreation course were cancelled.“I’ve never seen this before.”Walsh said the force of the wind blew her down at nearby Cape Spear, the most easterly point of North America, as it ripped the doors off three cars.In the central Newfoundland town of Badger, officials declared a state of emergency and kept close watch on a 24-metre high water tower that was condemned three weeks ago.
“If we get the high winds, the engineers have advised us that it could topple,” said Mayor Michael Patey.
People from 23 homes near the tower were evacuated and an elementary school was closed.On Newfoundland’s west coast, there were concerns about flooding as the storm’s heaviest rainfall — about 100 millimetres or more were forecast for some areas — drenched the region.The centre cautioned that tree damage, power outages and property damage would likely result from the strong winds.Bands of rain were extending out ahead of Leslie, dousing some areas on the Burin and Avalon Peninsulas with 25 mm of rain an hour.Much-smaller hurricane Michael is well to the east of Leslie and is expected to dissipate east of the Grand Banks over the next day or two.
