Mark Serreze, who heads the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colo., agrees that something odd is going on. Not only are air temperatures unusually warm, but water temperatures are as well. “There are some areas in the Arctic Ocean that are as much as 25 degrees Fahrenheit above average now,” Serreze said. “It’s pretty crazy.”

What’s happening, he explains, is sort of a “double whammy.” On the one hand, there is a “very warm underlying ocean” due to the lack of sea ice forming above it. But, at the same time, kinks in the jet stream have allowed warm air to flow northward and frigid Arctic air to descend over Siberia.

“The sea ice is at a record low right now, for this time of year, that’s one thing,” Serreze said. “And why it’s so low — again, there’s so much heat in the upper ocean in these ice-free areas, the ice just can’t form right now. The ocean’s just got to get rid of this heat somehow, and it’s having a hard time doing so.”

It's odd? Is it catastrophic? Is it anything meaningful? Has it never happened before? Is it unprecedented? Wink

Reply #172 - Nov 19^th, 2016 at 5:07pm That is all Booby’s videos are and they are exaggerated at best and often just made up out of thin air—and Unforgiven didn’t say the heatwaves were AGW. It gets cold in winter and hot in summer but winters getting a bit less cold and summers a bit more warm over time.

For much of tomorrow, I work indoors in airconditioning. But even 38 degrees does not sound too bad to be running about during the day.
