Yeah, I can see the arctic melting much faster from here on out and that means its effect will continue to increase exponentially e.g. slowing and pushing the jet around which will devastate environments around the world.

We have passed the tipping point, so here we go. Up here in Alaska we can really see it.

I just read on your thread about the heat wave in the arctic.

Message 29027316

The unrelenting heat wave in north central Siberia continues with Svetlogorsk (on the Arctic Circle) recording its 13th consecutive day (as of July 26) with temperatures above 30°C (86°F). Meanwhile, all eyes are turning to Western Europe where a potentially historic heat wave is expected to develop this weekend and continue into next week!There is a chance that some all-time national heat records may fall in some countries like Germany, Liechtenstein, Austria, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Hungary when all is said and done.

@emptywheel I think we need a more evocative name for the lake at N Pole than N Pole Lake. How about Lake Catastrophe? Lake Famine? Lake We Told You So?
