    Arctic sea ice not recovering. Extent/thickness/volume of ice are all the lowest on record for the date as we start 2017...

    There is actually a third contender for the title of greatest U.S. snowfall in 24-hours on record although it has been officially disqualified by the NCEC as a result of a technicality (one too many measurements were made by the observer over the course of 24 hours). The NWS COOP snow spotter in Montague Township, New York (in the Tug Hill Plateau region east of Lake Ontario) measured 77.0” of snowfall in a single 24-hour period on January 11-12, 1997.



    This photograph was taken during the remarkable snowstorm at Montague Township, New York in January 1997, when an unofficial 77” of snow accumulated in just 24 hours. Photograph courtesy of Cheryl Boughton).

    The storm total at Montague for the entire storm, which lasted (on and off) for five days was 90.5”. The NCEC special report and evaluation of this event can be found here. Thomas Niziol, The Weather Channel’s winter weather expert, is cited in this report in his capacity as the lead forecaster at the NWS-Buffalo office where he was employed at the time.

    There have, of course, been other anecdotal reports of even greater snowfalls than those cited above, including an 84” snowfall in 24 hours reported by the California Highway Patrol Depart at Crestview during the famous Sierra blizzard of January 14-15, 1952.

    I suppose I should applaud Dogwit for being employed, even as a troll, but by those standards the guards at Soviet death camps would have to be congratulated as well. I wonder if he has any qualms about being paid by a man who traffics in children, to be used as sex toys before their torture and murder?

    Naaah!

    Current Arctic sea ice extent remains at a record low for the date (JAXA)... unfortunately, increasing warmth in Atlantic sector next week

    Hudson Bay warms to 40 to 50°F above normal. While Alaska goes 50 to 60°F below normal toward end of next week. Extreme!
