this is like what, the fourth or fifth year in a ROW this has happened??? but somehow, i'm sure they will find a way to blame it on gloBULL warming...

Irony so thick, you need a shovel for it and perhaps an ice ax. In May, an expedition that set out to gather global warming evidence in the Arctic was forced to call it off. Why? Because the ice was too thick and the icebreaker was needed to rescue other ships. So much for that whole ‘global warming’ thing. The research vessel Amundsen was redirected by the Canadian Coast Guard to clear fishing lanes for boats and supply vessels. That includes the dreaded ‘oil tankers’.
“The Science Team of the Canadian Research Icebreaker CCGS Amundsen has canceled the first leg of the 2017 Expedition due to complications associated with the southward motion of hazardous Arctic sea ice,” the news site Science Daily reported. Sucks when your phony data is exposed for the lie that it is. The Amundsen is the second most powerful icebreaker in the country and it could barely get through the ice itself. That is very thick ice. This was a $17 million, four-year, University of Manitoba-led project. Because the ice was too thick, this meant the ship would arrive too late for its research objectives.
From the Conservative Tribune:
You can say this for bleeding-heart liberals: They certainly have a flair for the ironic.
An expedition designed to gather evidence of global warming and “climate change” in the Arctic was canceled last month after a humiliating discovery was made: There was so much ice in the Arctic that the icebreaker it was going to use was needed elsewhere.
Yes, you read that right. It’s the return of left-leaning scientists’ famous nemesis, “Reality.” And this time it affected plans for the research vessel Amundsen, which can be redirected by the Canadian Coast Guard if its icebreaking capabilities are required to clear lanes for fishing boats or supply vessels, such as oil tankers, according to the Winnipeg Free Press.
Amusingly, the scientists did not anticipate such thick ice on their trip. “It became clear to me very quickly that these weren’t just heavy ice conditions, these were unprecedented ice conditions,” Dr. David Barber, the lead scientist on the study. “We were finding thick multi-year sea ice floes which on level ice were five meters thick … it was much, much thicker and much, much heavier than anything you would expect at that latitude and at that time of year,” he continued. Maybe he should reevaluate his global warming assumptions.
These scientists could not get their predictions correct over the span of a couple of months… so you can see why their predictions over a hundred years or more are absolute bull feces. Global warming activists are now arguing that the Amundsen’s reassignment because of increased sea ice is proof that a warming arctic is sending greater floes into the sea lanes as Arctic ice shears. I don’t believe that for a second. This isn’t the first time a global warming study has been wrong… it happens regularly and predictably. These people should use real data and research, not faux science based on a political agenda.
Trump’s not the crazy one among the G20 global warming nations.
It’s the others who are delusional.
Too bad he didn't have this fact to throw in their faces.
Global warming is an opportunist’s game. If there’s too much ice now, there will eventually come a day when there’s not enough. Then they can all scream “global warming!!!”

If we could just get Santa to comment. He’s seen many seasons come and go. :>)
“Global Warming - Climate Change” world biggest hoax and scam.
Just like Obama causing Global Flooding by pissing in the ocean.
That much can humans contribute.
Elaborate scam to screw off taxpayers off their money!
Earth climate and changes are dependent on Sun’s and Sunspots activity supplying 99.99% of energy. Humans can do schit about it.
Volcano eruptions can produce much more distractions to climate than all humans and SUVs farting together.
CO2 is not poison, it is “food” for plants, which in turn produce Oxygen, that we need to breathe.
STOP the scam, jail all the scammers!!!
God bless and protect Mr. Trump!
MAGA!!!!
I agree. Someone’s been snowing on their parade for a number of years now.
It’s like their increased hurricane’s prediction. They predict it every single year. Obviously, some year it’s going to be right.
At that point, it will be all we hear about 24/7/365.
Yet another ‘Inconvenient Truth’....
Damn facts keep getting in the way of the “climate consensus.”
Al Gore is deeply SADDENED.
Hahaha. These anti-science LIB idiots will continue their perfidy. All they hope for is more grant money to their lunacy-based cause.
FRAUD ALERT!
FAKE NEWS!
Call ABCNNBCBS! They will want to know, so they can lie about it. Climate Warming exists. Ask Algorel He knows.
They had a similar problem in 2015.
About a week ago, I heard Greenland had it’s coldest July day ever recorded.
Thanks. Good information if you can find that link again.
bkmk
If we can airlift gore to the region, maybe his hot air will be enough to spark a thaw and he can score a few million off the “climate change” he produced.

Antarctic Global Warming Expedition Stuck in Ice for New Year
31 Dec 2013
An Australian expedition researching the effect global warming has on Antarctica's ice ring is "stuck in our own experiment" as 2014 rolls in.
The Australasian Antarctic Expedition, traveling on the Russian ship MV Akademik Shokalskiy, has been trapped in ice near Antarctica since last Tuesday, Fox News reports, and members expect to be flown out by helicopter because icebreakers are unable to get through the massive amounts of ice to rescue the stuck ship.
The ice has left 74 scientists, tourists, and crew members stranded
