Not to be too picky, Mr. Code, but I'm curious as to why June 20th 2014 is the 50th anniversary of a storm that occurred on October 12, 1962. This nit does not take away for the importance of your post. I was unaware of the Columbus Day Storm, even though I was 10 years old when it struck. I note that it, like the Perfect Storm, had its genesis in a tropical system that went extra-tropical, but didn't lose its punch. I wonder if the storm somehow turned the Willamette Valley into the great Pinot Noir region it is today!

If this happens, there is going to be a lot of hurt in ND/Minn. Not to mention the Canadian Praries.

Wouldn't that be the opposite of an El Nino? I don't know? What would an El Nino do in the ND/Minn area? Could you have cold and an El/Nino It has happened in the past, so it could happen again. Sometimes an El Nino affects Central USA, sometimes it doesn't. No one knows why, but just the way it is.

This seemed to be the most appropriate thread for this paper on Length of Day changes "Length of Day: Ancient eclipse obs and modern analysis indicate cycles at planetary frequencies" I thought Theo might find it interesting. The chain of comments under the posting are also very instructive. Back to the thin skinned rotating bubble of molten rock being pulled about and at certain times those stresses peak and earthquakes and volcanic activity increase.
