Hi



I've just been having a look at the Arctic SYNOP reports for 1200 UTC

today and thought that they looked rather cold for this time of year

– even up there. Have a look on my blog at the two climate charts for

Cape Morris Jessup (04301) at the top of Greenland at around 83° N,

one from last year and the other for this year.



Other sites like Eureka (71917) at around 79°N are also sub-zero in

stark contrast to last year. It’s probably late summer 2012 was so

warm in the Arctic last year although I do think Winter has returned

a little early to these parts. I do have some scattered pieces of

temperature climatology for Cape Morris Jessup from the CRUTEM4 data

set to compare with.



I haven’t heard much mention about the thinning and disappearance of

the sea ice recently and unfortunately don’t have the time to check

and see if this isn't the record year at lot of people were expecting.

I don't recollect anyone expecting a record low for Arctic ice this

year but I could be wrong. This year ranks as one of the heavier ice

years compared to the previous half-dozen but is still lighter than

earlier years.

Really ? How odd all those prophecies that numerous AGW protagonists have made, with many being news grabbing predictions of an 'Ice Free 'arctic.. Yet here you are scratching your head like a dazed Alzheimer's sufferer..

It really is pathetic how apparently intelligent humans have fallen for this politically driven trash. Many here on this NG are also dishonest by nakiing out this is all now a surprise.
