1478311 2021-06-29 10:49:00 From Reddit tldr (in case you don't know BM, tldr means - too long didn't read) bot (some form of A.I. summarizing) for you BM since it seems the long articles are too much for you:



On the summer solstice two European Union satellites recorded a scorching temperature of 118 degrees Fahrenheit on the ground in Arctic Siberia.

This isn't quite a new heat record; as a post on the EU's Copernicus satellite website noted, this egg-boiling temperature was detected only on the ground in Siberia's Sakha Republic, while the region's air temperature was a toasty 86 F. However, that's still an anomalously high temperature for the Arctic Circle - and one that could exacerbate the region's melting permafrost, which is the only thing preventing ancient caches of greenhouse gases from reentering Earth's atmosphere, according to Gizmodo.

The EU's Copernicus Sentinal-3A and 3B satellites recorded the high temperatures in the midst of an ongoing heat wave over much of Siberia.

If last summer is any indication, the hot solstice temperatures are just the beginning.

Precisely one year ago, on June 20, 2020, the same region of Siberia recorded the first 100 F day above the Arctic Circle - the hottest temperature ever recorded there.

For years, average temperatures in the Arctic have been rising at a far faster rate than anywhere else on Earth, largely due to melting sea ice induced by man-made global warming.

118°F = 48°C

1478312 2021-06-29 21:50:00 discuss Global Warming? :rolleyes:

Wife tells me there is Snow on the Kaimai's.



Its not global warming, it's climate change.
As has been said..Canadas new stinking hot. Doesn't mean that when we get wind from Antarctica it doesn't go cold down here.....but as it warms we won't get AS cold.

Whether you believe humans have affected it or not, the planet has always had warming and cooling periods. It's a fact.

1478316 2021-06-30 08:13:00 What they are saying BM is that a region close to the Arctic Circle has a higher record temperature than Las Vegas at any time in the past. zqwerty (97)

Really, well why didn't they Cut the Crap and say that?

1478318 2021-06-30 09:21:00 Here's a bit more BM:

"The RCMP in Surrey is encouraging all residents, especially the elderly, to take precautions to protect themselves from heat injuries.
Lytton, British Columbia, registered 117.5 degrees on Monday -- the highest temperature ever recorded in Canada, and around 48 degrees above what's normal for this time of year."

Those temps are degF of course.

"More than 230 deaths reported in British Columbia amid historic heat wave"

1478319 2021-06-30 09:33:00 Also: "Canada Records All-Time High Temperature Of 49.5 Degrees"

"At 4:20pm, Lytton Climate Station reported 49.5 degrees Celsius, once again, breaking the daily and all-time temperature records for the 3rd straight day," Environment and Climate Change Canada posted on Twitter, announcing a temperature equal to 121 degrees Fahrenheit.
