Ice is melting in unprecedented ways as summer approaches in the Arctic. In recent days, observations have revealed a record-challenging melt event over the Greenland ice sheet, while the extent of ice over the Arctic Ocean has never been this low in mid-June during the age of weather satellites.
Greenland saw temperatures soar up to 40 degrees above normal Wednesday, while open water exists in places north of Alaska where it seldom, if ever, has in recent times.
It’s “another series of extreme events consistent with the long-term trend of a warming, changing Arctic,” said Zachary Labe, a climate researcher at the University of California at Irvine.
And the abnormal warmth and melting of ice in the Arctic may be messing with our weather.
Data from the National Snow and Ice Data Center show that the Greenland ice sheet appears to have witnessed its biggest melt event so early in the season on record this week (although a few other years showed similar mid-June melting).

Not possible - we’ve reduced manmade emissions by more than 50% and the air is more cleaner than its ever been and yet... global warming keeps happening. Almost as if the science is wrong...
Quick! Call out the Nazis! There’s no time to lose! Where’s Hitler? These despots and dictators are never around when you need them!!!
Winter is over. Summer is here. Quick! Tax everyone!
And it may be that a volcano has heated up and doing the melting...not the atmosphere.
When they write that temperatures are 40* degrees above normal, do they ever actual state what the temperature actually is?
Well, it’s almost full summertime with the sun being at it’s highest peak.....wonder if that might have something to do with it? /S
Follow the money trail...it’s nothing but a big scam to get more money out of the “unwashed masses”. Screw em.
Open water? Should be good fishing!
Greenland was ice free 300 years ago.
How much money are these Climate Terrorists getting Paid by George SoreA$$, to lie about Gorebull warming?
“You don't capitulate to young voters because they have been brainwashed into believing that mankind is driving a climate 'crisis,'” said Marc Morano. “You lead and reveal to them that what they think they know just ain't so.”
Thanks to Hot Hunt and others for the above realities versus the end of humans due to Gorebull Warming BS Predictions!
Chilliest late spring, early summer I can remember in my state of Maryland.
I love summer and want some of that “global warming” soon!
You can say that again ! /s
My feet are starting to feel wet already.
This morning it was 60°...in Georgia. In June.
Uh, define “normal” for us ecowankers. Just what is the “correct” temperature?
Global average temperatures are 0.31 degrees above their 1970 low point.

In other words, nothing is fact...It’s mostly stuff we made up....
