  1. 37F and overcast, thinking 10" is likely to be the snowfall total here.
  2. Must be due to all the jet contrails I've seen lately.
  3. The passage had the earliest ever transit this year on July 29th.
  4. Jealous of the Sebec camera. Would love to see the Aurora.
  5. Youtube BPEarthwatch says this is the next Carrington Event LOL.
  6. Record early transit of the Northwest Passage: https://www.google.com/amp/www.latimes.com/world/la-fg-northwest-passage-20170729-story,amp.html
  7. How is the ice cover loss determined? Is this via infrared satellite imaging?
  8. The webcam at Barrow shows no sea ice, in fact I have not seen any in the last 3 months I have been checking the cam. Is this normal? http://www.alaskawebcams.org/barrow.htm
  9. Does this have any bearing on how fast next summer's melt may happen with such a late start the re-freeze. I guess that ice thickness overall would be less with a shorter winter season?
  10. Is this why Alaska is having a warm up with the 0C isotherm moving well north into the Arctic this week?
  11. Good question, because if you play his video at 0:30 it shows the Wales Sea Ice Webcam as down and he seems to imply someone is hiding the ice growth. That cam actually works just fine and shows open ocean, its just a different link: http://www.alaskawebcams.org/barrow.htm
  12. That may be but he had a video stating that the Barrow sea ice cam was down to hide the fact of the record freeze up which is false. The cam is working and shows open ocean.
  13. This YouTube guy is really ridiculous, I posted the webcam to show the true extent of the sea ice at Barrow:
  14. I like snow too, I've skied in all 12 months of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, but Alaska is having a combination of snow and record cold in May and I am sure most of the population is tired of it, plus summer up there is short to begin with. Having temperature departures of -10 -20F in April and May would not make me happy.
  15. I don't blame you I can only imagine how terrible it would be to have a winter that has stretched on now for 9 months. I like snow, but I'd be sick of it to at this point in May. Hang in there, it looks better for you in the extended forecast.
