I’m sorry I posted #73 now. It was meant to support and bolster your point.
You can stick your awards.
“temperatures soar up to 40 degrees above normal”
What a bunch of hog wash. Average temps in Greenland
is 50 degrees in June and July. It’s 51 degrees
there today. I don’t think there’s ever been a
90 deg day in Greenland.
Still peddling the same, old shite.
How come it’s not 40 degrees above normal everywhere else? Poppycock!!
Except for china who is polluting more than ever. Why don’t these idiots go after china? 93% of the world pollution comes from there.
It was 90 this week.
Good, we need more farm land.
The only thing green in 29-Palms
are the 29 palm trees./s
“ A million years ago, it was tropical, three million years ago it was two hundred miles out in the Pacific Ocean. (I’m going from memory, so my time-frames might be off, ”
I can barely remember five years ago, much less three million.
As ice heats up the bonds between adjacent water molecules break and the water changes to liquid phase. That is not unprecedented. It is the way it always happens. The writer is an idiot, but then he works for the Washington Post, so that is sort of expected.
We just got back from an Alaskan Cruise. . . and we got snow in Skagway in the first week of June. The natives said it was highly unusually cold weather for Alaska in June. Our ship was turned away from being able to see the glacier at the end of the Endicott Arm due to TOO much ice, and the reports are that the Mendenhall Glacier has grown in the past ten years. Don’t tell me that the temperature was 40º above normal. That would have made the normal June temperatures below zero! It certainly was not.
The Greenland ice sheet has about 100,000 years of ice. Some ice is 1,000,000 years old. The Greenland Ice sheet disappeared about 2.9 million years ago between ice ages but came back when we entered the Quatenary Ice age.
So it was not clear of ice during the Renaissance.
Rochester, NY averages a low of 18 degrees overnight and a high of 32 degrees during January....the temp reached 90 degrees on January day in 73 or 74...that's 58 degrees above normal...and 45 years later we're still here...
“the Greenland ice sheet appears to have witnessed its biggest ...”
Morons write this.
“When they write that temperatures are 40* degrees above normal, do they ever actual state what the temperature actually is?”
No. This illiterate author doesn’t even say the scale. (It’s Celsius).
But more. It’s not even a measured temperature. It’s made up. From the article.
“A simulation from the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasting suggested that temperatures over Greenland may have peaked at around 40 degrees above normal on Wednesday.”
How were the 80-01 measurements made compared to 15-18?
“There is zero debate the earth is warming.”
How is that determined?
...so 104 F above normal in Greenland? I think someone needs to re-calibrate their simulation.
