I thought they were dead. This is a gross distortion without physics. Just the thing they have always put out. Next thing will be nosa saying 'Earth is Venus'. I am happy, I thought we were just settling into a funk with nothing on either side.
Arctic ice extent is totally dependent on how much penetrates the Greenland Gap. This year it looked good, but the Gulf Stream tilted up, and filled the place with warm water. I showed it a number of times on the blog.
But Arctic ice volume is looking good and has broken out of the decline. I expect it to start going up again. And now, back to the general weather.
This is the warmiest of sites, and yet, they don't mention climate change any more. Are they tired of the Polar Vortex Fairies? Have I gotten above 3 readers? Nope.
I was going to use the title 'A chance of Spring and Meatballs', but nooa got to me. This is a strong plume, and if it drifts over nicely, we have warmer weather. But it could do so many not nice things.
It is weird for Toronto. We have this cold bulb sitting just over us. Totally stagnant, and the weather forecasts vary a lot. All depends on how this moves.
One scenario is that the Pacific plume goes high and hits the Arctic. This is the standard pattern for getting rid of all that cold. However, it squeezes all the cold down on us. We will have a very cold May. The other scenario is that it does a nice Spring hit at Vancouver. This wipes out our cold, gives us some nice warm weather, but leaves the Arctic to hit us again and again, like a trumpy nightmare.
ps the most median Canadian I know was all agog about the cold going into May.
