Last year I advised all signs pointed to a snowy winter and ultimately, many of the snow records in recorded weather history of Boston, MA were broken:
http://www.weather.com/news/news/new...d-snow-tracker This year, however, none of the signs point to a snowy winter with the artic ice cap leaving 'stall' period and resuming growth; maybe very rapid growth here will bring on more snow? A weather chart suggested several years of snowy weather often co-occur. One of these had a rainy winter in the center though. Any thoughts regarding the cause of the 'stall' periods often seen via satellite observation in the "Charctic Interactive Sea Ice Graph" of this webpage: http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ over the years? The ice growth often seems to stop for a few days. |

Now ice sheet growth is quite rapid and current sheet is beginning to exceed thirty year median in more locations and may soon do so in all of them. Wise to prepare for a snowy winter because even if this one proves mild next year probably will not.

Disaster may loom; at present the arctic ice cap is smaller at this point in time than any historical record I can find. . . .

Ice melt could make seas rise 6 feet by 2100, study says
http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/31/tech/s...ice/index.html . . . If the polar ice cap were to break away from Greenland, it might move its center to align with Earth's axis of rotation and rotate with a 'face' toward the moon . . . more likely though, it would wander over to the continents . . . maybe Russia, Canada or Alaska . . . or try to pass through toward the United Kingdom and Europe via Svalbard, . . . I wonder how far inland Godzillaberg could drive an edge of itself? Data from the web say ocean currents are around .25km/h or about three inches per second in the Artic Ocean. Hanging out on a Northern Alaska beach . . . not too fast . . . but fast enough to be annoying. If there is ice in your glass of water, its temperature is about 32 °F but when the ice is gone, the temperature is free to rise . . . so too, the Northern Hemisphere. |

While I think we can call Winter 2016 history here in the Northeast, look at the turn of events appearing to have occurred at the polar ice cap!
