  1. I don't think I've ever seen a dry slot location modeled correctly 40 hours before the a winter storm. If you see one modeled over your house on one of the mesos 12 hours before game time, then there may be cause to worry. These are very dynamic events laden with moisture.
  2. Thanks for placing a map of less than 2% of the Earth's area in the Global Temperature thread. Super duper helpful.
  3. I believe this is the highest anomaly recorded in the 80N spatial area, FWIW.
  4. Right. In the near term, the record slow refreeze means very little in terms of "climate feedbacks." The extent in May and June have much larger implications on lasting arctic warmth due to the sun pouring in at that time. The argument can be made, however, that a record slow refreeze could potentially cause a less solvent ice pack moving into next melting season.
  5. If the Euro ensembles are any indication, the ice will be in a far worse state at the end of May than in 2012 or 2007. A collapsing super nino favors continued warmth at 80N, so I'd put the odds slightly above 50%.
  6. Still pretty strong melt in Greenland. Models show the ice sheet cooling off later this week, which should slow losses a bit. Compare this to 2013 or 2014 and we are way ahead. 2015: 2013: 2014: 2014:
  7. Greenland is beginning to make up for it's slow start. The model ENS are pretty warm for the next week as well. Little chance it makes it to the drop of 2012, but interesting to see how much ground a short period of time can "make up"
  8. Perhaps this has been touched on earlier in this thread, but does anyone know what's caused the slowdown in methane rises from 2000-Present?
  9. Got about 22-25 inches from this storm in my neighborhood. Very rarely are we the bullseye in mid Atlantic storms (except 2011-2012, of course)
  10. How could one worry about wind mills and not complain about the massive amount of ecological and human damage fossil fuels have caused? House cats and automobiles kill about a million times more birds than all windmills in the world combined. Sorry for the off topic.
