Title: No summer yet.
Post by: Zimme83 on July 02, 2017, 05:14:53 PM

I thought the ice was gone in 2013?  Maybe that trace compound that's is the source of carbon for earth based life is Not driving the weather.  :noid. Or maybe it is?  The facts show below normal temps in much of the arctic.  Although we are slightly warmer than the FORTY YEAR AVERAGE,  :rofl ok, looks like another day of survival on the docket for tomorrow.   :D

Enjoy  :salute

for about the last decade the sun has been chilling out.  another ice age on the way?  forecast calls for less and less sun activity.

Last time the sun spots stopped the Thames froze a foot thick, Venice froze, and Greenland grew crops.  :O

Sure is cool this weather thing, quite the experience.

Sure hope the rest of the world can be fascinated as I with this knowledge.  Additionally, I think the rest of the world will bear the fruit of more CO2 in the air, Its almost as if humans have been lucky rather than good, in many ways I like it that way.

Oh comon manz  :D record ice in Greenland and bitter cold in Antarctica!   :D no summer yet.  :D great time to discuss.
Sure al Gore was wrong, he made the mistake of predicting within his lifetime.  Verdict is still out on that head British scientist who predicted Antarctica will be the only habitable place on earth by the end of the century.   :rofl

Big difference. And for the record: the area where the pic is taken is so far this year around 3 degrees C above average so its not going to help you to prove anything..

We have all the summer you could want.  :headscratch:

It is forecast to be over 100 degrees F, (38C) everyday for the next seven days. With a couple of those days forecast to be over 110 F, (43 C). But it's a dry heat (>30%), like dry your bellybutton into a piece of jerky.  :devil

The extended forecast has more of the same for next week too.  :banana:

I wish we had 30% humidity, as we do have the upper 90's now as well, but it has been hovering at 60% for a couple of weeks now.  I walk out of the office and my glasses instantly fog over.  Crazy weather.

  You must be up north close to arctic circle, i've been in Stockholm in june and July "97 , but  i remember it nice warm.  Good place to start bitcoin mining business ;  this entrepreneur  moved the servers up in Iceland to save $$ in electricity bill for cooling .  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJgWqbZBn6I

The photo is taken at about 66 degree N, which is about 100 miles N of Nome, Alaska so its a bit to the North yes. Facebook have a server hall (or 3) in Luleå to save some Money on cooling..

lets see ocean turns like toilet. sun heats equator and air move to pole to cool.  sometimes it swirls.  we see two mile thick ice in ohio but not siberia. hmm. wet air stays warm. dry air gets cold. round and round we go.  :x

i tell you what, you give me 100 dollars ill hop on a plane and tell you how cold it is.  :aok

I knew a girl in Petal, MS, who I used to kid about how the South had an uninhabitable, hostile climate.  One day she finally said, "I did not choose to live in the South to be cool."

I found that hard to disagree with.

So stop your complaining.  You have options.

That is why I do not live along the coast of Texas, where I grew up.  The humidity.  We rarely get that kind of humidity in Fort Worth, and when we do, it last a day or two.  This stretch has lasted longer than any stretch I can remember.

Moving is no longer an option.  I am in the last home I will ever own, if I want to retire.  So I'll complain if I want to, along with yelling at those kids, "Get out of my yard!". :)
