And so, the curtain closes

 

Not much new news here.  The real cold hits us in a few days.  We can hope that summer bounces back, but 30% chance it won't.  We can all call this the Permanent Polar Vortex, caused by carbon.

This air is bringing us the smoke.  

ps they're telling everyone in Alberta, the snowstorms in July are just a blip....

ps yeah, there is a chance a Pacific plume will go up into the Arctic and reinstate summer.

We really need the Pacific plumes to do something.

ps It is fun to note that if the northern summer shrinks to 1 month, then as long as we have one heatwave somewhere in the world, climate change will always be with us.
