That's the third time today. I did not manage to capture a video of it for the sound of that high-pitched squeal. After a few moments it will restart and the channel I was viewing has to be selected again.
I have had it powered on for only a very small number of hours today so it is significant to me to see it happen for the third time today.
From a really cheap tv on Amazon, what can you really expect.
Those of you following my blog-posts here on my blog recognize my process of examining weather events for a simple pattern I recognize.
None of my work here has anything to do with any form of science.
If anything then my work is based only on popular science-fiction as I understand it
I am not a writer, either, so if you're simply disgruntled in your First Worlder polluter existence then you probably don't like my writing style
The mainstream-media has been pumping up lately the so-called Kelvin wave off the west-coast USA and that has got me thinking that is a destructive element to the normal winter snowfall here in Spokane.
The results have been mediocre for a while and there is no way to know what this upcoming winter season will produce.
The simple snowfall total does not tell us a lot about the actual winter.
There was a snow-day in January earlier this year that counted for much of the 28 inches of total as measured at the Spokane airport by the National Weather Service.
Snowfall in March is not exciting because winter is practically over at that point. Have seen a lot of snowfall on the ground here during March, still it's boring. November is the best time
Where this is going.
These weather events do not help me reconcile my theory according to my stated observations about "Travelers"
Unless they have a weather-machine in the distant future then nothing about it - that I can understand presently - explains the anomalies I theorize
Better explanation comes from William Gibson's 2014 novel "The Peripheral" and his continua.
The anomalies I observe could be the product of shifting reality, is what I labor to discover.
My product here is galactically more rational than any of those ridiculous UFO-bunkers and their idiotic "perfect sharp 90-degree turns". What a bunch of losers.
Today I am thinking again about that Kelvin wave off the west-coast and its potential impact on weather here in Spokane this winter season.
There is a website that I follow sometimes and that is titled Tropical Tidbits
In the images below - as an example today - from images I captured previously for illustration - you can see the lines plotted for air-pressure differences, as I understand it
When the lines are compressed closely together then that means a large change of air-pressure over a small distance, relatively.
None of these images demonstrate this notion: it's when you see a sort of buckle in those closely compressed lines that you might start thinking something dramatic happening there
As I understand it, that is the sort of configuration one would see from a cyclone-genesis or bombogenesis as they call it in the weather science
That dramatic Kelvin wave - seems to me - could be a source for that sort of development.
It represents to me a difference in extremes
This means something specific to me because I track the specific calendar-day of extreme weather events and I look at the probable and the improbable
Switched over to the other news channel on tv and I think he was saying there is a chance - for the first time this season - for rain and snow here this weekend.
Nothing is more disruptive to peace and good order than those primitive savages and their ridiculous religions. Cowards terrified of mortality think they have an Imaginary Friend - or whatever you call it - up there RIDICULOUSLY! on the clouds
The weather terrifies them most of all.
Why be intelligent when you can remain an ignorant and stubborn dim-wit with your moronic religions.
I don't speak for any of these people referenced here. I don't know them, everything is my personal opinion

I've described before notions about "Extinct" and how it seemed humorous it was, when I first saw it, on my tv Channel 232.
I'm certain those Jesus Christ bible-thumpers learned nothing from it.
As I've said before, a professor of theology is expert only in circular reasoning
by me, Kerry Burgess, September 24, 2019
Religious scholars are experts only in circular reasoning.
I keep watch for the so-called "religious professor" - notable graduates of the clown-colleges infesting the United States of America - for those intelligent persons who learn enough about the subject to finally figure out that monkeys invented their god. Bible-thumpers are too weak- and lazy-minded to ever put in any serious effort at understanding *why* the human psyche *needs* a god.
So in their delusions they read such news article about discoveries and in their idiocy they think that somehow equates to proof of their delusions.

(from internet transcript)
(Ragnar Anchorage - Adama and Leoben are in some sort of room with lots of pipes and steam. Leoben is extremely pale and sweaty now.)
Leoben: What is it about this place? What's it doing to me?
Adama: Must be your allergies.
Leoben: I don't have allergies.
Adama: I didn't think so. What you got are silica pathways to the brain, or whatever it is you call that thing you pretend to think with. It's decomposing as we speak.
Leoben: It's the storm, isn't it? It puts out something. Something you discovered has an effect on Cylon technology. That's it, isn't it? And this is a refuge, that's why you put a fleet out here. Last ditch effort to hide from the Cylon attack. Right, well, that's not enough Adama. I've been here for hours. Once they find you, it won't take them that long to destroy you. They'll be in and out before they even get a headache.
Adama: Maybe. (He grabs Leoben, pushes him up against the wall.) But you, you won't find out, because you'll be dead in a few minutes. How does that make you feel? If you can feel.
Leoben: Oh, I can feel more than you could ever conceive of, Adama. But I won't die. When this body dies, my consciousness will be transferred to another one. And when that happens, (he collapses to the ground with a groan) I think I'll tell the others exactly where you are, and I think that they'll come, and they'll kill all of you. And I'll be here watching it happen.
Adama: You know what I think? I think if you could have transferred out of here, you woulda done it long before now. I think the storm's radiation really clogged up your connection. You're not going anywhere. You're stuck in that body.
Leoben: Doesn't matter. Sooner or later, (he smiles) the day comes when you can't hide from the things you've done.

How LCD TV works
We explain how LCD TVs work and the differences between traditional and LED models
Published on 6 May 2014
It might sound like an exaggeration, but LCD screens are everywhere these days. The fact is, in their various guises LCDs are in everything from watches to phones, through to video projectors and, of course, televisions. When it comes to TVs, LCDs are often erroneously referred to as LED TVs, but in fact the LED TVs we hear about are just using LEDs to provide the light which shines through the LCD panel.
As things stand at the moment, LCD is the dominant technology in televisions. Plasma TVs and OLED TVs are both far smaller markets, with plasma on its way out, and OLED just starting to be introduced in volume and at prices affordable (well almost) to normal people.
History of LCD TVs
Although we’re looking at TVs and TV technology here, it’s worth understanding what a revolution LCD was in general terms. The discovery of liquid crystal dates back to 1888, which is somewhat staggering. Like many discoveries, back then scientist Friedrich Reinitzer got a lot of attention for what he found when extracting cholesterol from carrots. The problem was, no one could think of anything to do with this newfound technology.
Several years later, after work continued on these liquid crystals, in 1936 the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company would patent the “liquid crystal light valve”, which was the first time a display had been created by selectively blocking light.
An original LCD display from the 1930s
LCDs would, eventually be a major part of technology. Watches, calculators, laptops, mobile phones and cars would include one or more of them. Obviously, there is a difference between the screen of a calculator and that of a TV. For one, a calculator usually doesn’t have a backlight. Instead, lights passes from the front, where the user is, and is then reflected back through a reflective surface. In a TV, there’s a backlight that provides this light source.
And, of course, calculator LCDs are made of large areas of liquid crystal, and are generally not colour. TVs and other displays use pixels of different colours to produce an image. It’s the same method of producing an image that has existed since the first cathode ray tube colour televisions.
The most significant development happened in 1972, when Westinghouse produced the first active matrix screen. In an active matrix display, each pixel is controlled individually, which is crucial in using an LCD to create a complex, high-resolution image as seen on a computer monitor, phone or television.
In 1988 Sharp sold a 14in LCD TV as a special interest product, much like Sony’s XEL-1 OLED TV, it was never really intended to be a mass-market product, and was more something wealthy people might buy to make their homes look interesting. By 2004 the technology was much more viable, and small LCD TVs were on sale, although again their pricing meant that most people would still buy a CRT.
By 2007 things were on the move though, and for the first time LCD TV sales exceeded those of CRT televisions. People wanted those flat-panel TVs and a revolution started that killed the CRT within just a few years, ushered in HD, 3D and later 4K.
How does LCD TV work?
LCD TVs all work in the same way. At the back of the set is a backlight, which is on all of the time, producing the light that you see. In front of the backlight are two polarising filters. The first blocks all vertical light waves, the second, rotated 90 degrees, blocks all horizontal light waves. Together, then, they block all the light from the backlight, creating a completley blank screen.
That’s no use, obviously, but this is where the layer of liquid crystals come in. in their natural state, a liquid crystal is twisted, changing the orientation of the light. This means that light is allowed to pass through the second filter, creating a completely white screen. To control the light through the filter, a voltage is applied to each liquid crystal. Controlling the voltage controls the twist, and therefore controls how much light makes it through the second filter. Using this system and one liquid crystal per pixel, you can create a black and white picture with shades of grey.
In order to produce a full-colour image, each pixel is actually made up of three sub-pixels. These sit, respectively, behind a colour filter of red, green and blue: controlling the light that passes through each of these sub-pixels allows the TV to produce a picture with thousands of colours. The big downside with this technology is that the filters aren’t capable of completely blocking all light, so with a permanent backlight there’s always a bit of light bleed and, depending on the quality of the set, blacks can look more like dark grey.
There are two kinds of LCD panel in use today, the first is called “twisted nematic” or TN, and it requires voltage from an electrode above and below the LCD panel. The second technology is called “in plane switching” and instead uses two electrodes on one side of the panel.
IPS panels are very common now, because they have far better viewing angles and more faithful colour reproduction. TN panels are used a lot, but generally in cheaper displays. They are still common in computer monitors, especially those aimed at gamers who value low response times over image quality.
