They believe their own propaganda. Hahaha
Computer model meets reality.
When a theory consistently fails to meet real observations it’s time to drop that theory as false and start over from scratch.
There! Fixed it.
Funny. Thankfully they didn’t get stuck. This is like a South Park episode come true.
Of course, Global Warming didn’t cause this, Climate Change did. See, fixed it. Now any unexpected weather event can fall under the umbrella of Climate Change......so now we should all walk to work, live in structures made of straw and do whatever else the CN’s want. Climate Nazis.
Just hire the Russians - their nuclear powered heavy ice breakers can go through 10 feet at speed.
The next US ice breakers are billed as heavy but they are really just medium conventionally powered breakers - US Coast Guard trying to keep up in a losing battle.
Russia has launched the third and final Project 22220 LK-60YA-class nuclear-powered icebreaker at the Baltic Shipyard in Saint Petersburg, Russia on May 25. the Ural With a length of 173 (567 feet) meters and a width of 34 (111.5 feet) meters, the 33,000-ton class of icebreakers is the largest of its kind ever constructed. Each vessel (3) is equipped with a RITM-200 nuclear propulsion plant, which comprises two reactors of 175 megawatt enabling a top speed of 22 knots (41 kilometers per hour, 25.3 mph).
Russias current icebreaker fleet consists of 40 vessels with 11 new ships planned or under construction. Out of the 40, around 27 are ocean-going icebreakers, some of which are nuclear-powered. The Russian government has also plans to build two more Project 22220 icebreakers in addition to the three currently under construction.
In 20117, the Russian Ministry of Defense commissioned the 6,000-ton Project 21180 diesel-electric icebreaker Ilya Muromets, the first icebreaker built for the Russian Navy in forty years. Russia has also been working on armed Project 23550 Ice-class patrol ships.
The 7,000-ton Ice-class Ivan Papanin, laid down in 2017, will reportedly be armed with a 76-millimeter AK-176MA naval gun in a turret and carry up to eight containerized 3M-54 Kalibr supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles. https://thediplomat.com/2019/05/russia-launches-new-nuclear-powered-icebreaker/
Th US currently has one (1) working heavy ice breaker - but not in the same class as the Russian ships - the 3 "heavy" breakers under construction are not a match but they will be armed with an Aegis armament system - what exactly is not yet finalized.
Why is it so cold in and around the Himalayas?
Altitude,my FRiend.
The entire central Asian plateau was raised up with the collision of the Indian plate from the south.
The whole area averages higher than Colorado, Plus thousands of Glaciers that haven’t answered AlGore’s call to arms.
During the day the sun does feel warm ,even hot, but come the evening you don’t want to be outside even in Midsummer.
There are a whole load of interesting weather effects caused by the plateau, such as the Indian Monsoons and the Deserts to the North.
Sounds like a place that I would like to escape from the Texas summer.
