Warm July Globally, And Low Sea Ice

The global temperature numbers have been crunched for the month of July and depending on who crunched the data, July was somewhere between the third and sixth warmest on record. Land-based observations had July as the fifth warmest on record, while ocean-based observations had that region as the 11th warmest July on record. Combining the

Arctic Sea Ice At Record Low

By
I’ll have to admit the biggest request for weather articles lately has been related to all of the rain that some regions have seen over the last few months. If you are one of those people waiting to see just how much rain fell and how it compares to past years, I’m afraid you will

By
Early in The Second World War, Russian forces successfully fended off an attempt by Hitler’s armies to cut off the country’s crucial northern lifeline: the deep sea Port of Murmansk.

Past Weather Does Not Always Mean Future Weather

Early in September I took a quick look at the kind of weather we might expect this winter. In particular, we examined the phenomenon known as La Nińa or the “anti El Nińo.” La Nińa is a cooling of the equatorial Pacific Ocean and when this occurs it can have an impact on our winter

I’m going to start off this week’s article with a quick look at global weather records and patterns so far this year.
