Antartica temp in winter 50 degrees above normal

[woodchucker]

Just saw a few articles on the polar heat vortex that is causing temps to be 50 degrees f (30 C) above normal. Damn, that's not good.

That is merely nature doing what nature does.

Here in central Texas, we had a very mild July. Much cooler that normal.

We just got through 3 weeks of 100+ F days

Nope. These are record setting phenomena

Still nature doing what nature does.

It's really scary. New record highs every year and it's accelerating.

I went to Antarctica this past summer (our winter).

Truly amazing place with very few distinct species holding everything together. If the krill down there fails I worry for every ecosystem on our planet.

We're all connected.

I have read an article years ago that was showing temperatures by centuries. The hottest temperatures were about the time the Israelies left Egypt. Some how fitting.
