An iceberg the size of Luxembourg knocked loose from the Antarctic continent earlier this month could disrupt the ocean currents driving weather patterns around the globe, researchers said Thursday.

Luxembourg is tiny.

I’m just petrified!

LOL!!!

When will they stop this idiotic gloBULL warming **it?

Nonsense.

This is not true unless the iceberg were driving an SUV and exhaling CO2. No way can nature cause anything bad. The world was perfect until someone put humans here. Maybe it was Al Gore’s mom.

Iceberg broke off, probably due to ocean waves, no global warming junk science involved ... But you know they will try, don’t you.

[cripplecreek]

So in other words, its doing what icebergs do.

[metmom]

And if you believe that, I’ve got some global warming to sell you.

FYI.. this is time at the end of the summer in the Southern Hemisphere that the ice starts to grow again in the Antarctica. Please note that the ice level is slightly above the average since they began satellite measurement of the extent each year:

Also note that total ice has continued to grow (not decrease) since records began:

How can we have Icebergs with all this Globull Warming?

Did someone lie to us?

[Jimmy Valentine]

Anybody ever get the feeling that the Warmists really, really want a catastrophe to happen?

[Teflonic]

I read an article that pretty conclusively proved this was caused by increased wave activity.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

This would be akin to something like dropping a small ice cube into an olympic-sized swimming pool.

[keving]

Let Al Gore ride it until it melts!!

[DB]

A, isn't the very definition of a glacier a slow moving river of ice? Well if its moving towards the sea, eventually it will reach the sea and break apart even if the other end is gaining ice... The fact is Antarctica is at record ice levels and the only part of Antarctica that shows signs of warming has an under sea volcano erupting...

None of which points to man made global warming...

Duh...

The largest Antarctic iceberg ever observed was in 1955 by the USS Glacier. The iceberg was twice the size of the state of Connecticut. As far as I recall the weather was not influenced then.

As an aside, the article is bullrohr. Spoken by a physical oceanographer for 30+ years.

An iceberg the size of Luxembourg knocked loose from the Antarctic continent earlier this month could disrupt the ocean currents driving weather patterns around the globe, but almost certainly won't...but, it COULD!
