Arctic storms that churn seas and melt ice more common than thought.
Breitbart/upi ^ | December 11

Arctic storms swirling around the top of the world are more common than previously thought with about 1,900 in the first decade of the century, researchers say.

As they churn across the top of the globe each year they leave warm water and air in their wakes, melting sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, scientists at Ohio State University reported Wednesday.

I'll bet plenty of AF pilots that flew nuclear bombers knew all about the storms back in the '60s.

What makes the southern ocean so dangerous is that
there is open water all the way around the world.
At least there is canada and greenland to break things up,
or the North Atlantic would be even worse.

There was a massive cyclone the season before last, which is why the ice retreated so much that season. Of course, the media didn’t disclose that, attributing it to globull warming.

“As an example, he cited an especially large cyclone that hit the arctic in August 2012, which scientists say they believe played a significant role in the record retreat of sea ice that year.”

Okay, what do they attribute the rapid development of sea ice to this year? Answer? They haven’t got a clue as to what makes the Earth do what it does, but they sure want to put programs in place to affect it.

They want the MONEY to put programs in place that have no chance of affecting it.

It’s the same with the Dow Jones stock numbers. There are about 10 - 15 reasons they use to say why the market goes up or down and I think they have a random generator. One week something is the reason the market goes up and a few days later they spout the same reason as why it goes down.

By the by, the continuous southern ocean means there
are waves that actually travel around the globe, it’s
another reason the southern rollers reach such large size.

Sure there is. Considering the alternative the sun is a very nice inferno. ;-)

So what am I supposed to do? Buy winter clothes or summer clothes.

That all depends on if you are a man or woman.
If you’re a woman, you buy both, cause one or the
other will be on sale.
