North Pole warms near melting point this Christmas week

[vmax]

This gives information on how this affects us here in the USA....

 

 

Temperatures around the North Pole will almost certainly pass the melting point, 32 degrees Fahrenheit, in the days leading up to Christmas, as global warming wreaks havoc on some of the world’s coldest and iciest climates, scientists say......

for people living farther down in the Northern Hemisphere who are unknowingly experiencing the ripple effects of Arctic warming.

“They assume the Arctic is far away, and they assume, ‘What impact could this have on us?’” Mayewski said.

But Arctic warming is directly tied to extreme weather in the Northern Hemisphere, he explained. With the barrier between the cold north and warm south weakening, cold air masses are more easily moving south and warm air masses are more easily moving north, fueling the changes in surface ocean currents that can exacerbate extreme weather events. In addition, as sea ice transforms into open water, that open water absorbs more heat, a cycle of warming that increasing moisture levels and raises the odds of events like floods and droughts throughout the hemisphere....The Arctic’s climate system has followed largely linear patterns until now.

 

 

 

“While none of the global climate models predicted we’d have an Arctic warming so fast, it no less happened. The models are based on input from the last few decades. We’re experiencing something which is a surprise, a quick change in the climate system,” he said, citing the rapid release of greenhouse gases and the hole in the ozone as accelerating factors.
As the Arctic continues to warm, it will release dangerous amounts of the greenhouse gas methane, which absorbs the sun’s heat and further warms the atmosphere. In the first two decades after its release, methane is 84 times more potent than carbon dioxide, according to the Environmental Defense Fund.....http://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/north-pole-warms-near-melting-point-this-christmas-week/ar-BBxsKNl?li=BBnb7Kz

 

The scary part is this is not linear change. It's exponential.

The world is doomed. I am coming to acceptance. I just want the dolts to be made to live next to the ocean.

That's so false, they had mandatory evacuation off New Smyrna Beach 48 hrs before Matthew hit

No don't evacuate. You stay. Don't believe the hype.

[cravnravn]

Like the hype we just had with matthew.

 

Hell we didn't lose a foot of beach with Matthew, I didn't even board up, my fear was the pool going to overflow. It did but we are equipped with hurricane drains

If that is all it takes to know that the whole of scientific world is lying then like I said please never leave.

[cravnravn]

Holy moly stepped out of bwi at 9:30 this morning, it's dang cold

[papasmurfbell]

A 50 something degree day is really cold?

[cravnravn]

Where? It was 37 at 9:30 we spent the day in northern Harford county, it peaked at 42. Now today will be warmer, I guess my blood has thinned, I'm not digging this chilliness.

[papasmurfbell]

So it is 60 right now. The average high according to weather underground is 43. It is not close to cold around here right now. About 3 weeks ago it was really cold.

[cravnravn]

Yeah, I know yesterday was pleasant we enjoyed running around in short sleeves. We will see what today brings
