Lightning over the Arctic basin.

Above is a compilation of data ( 1925 to 2016) of CG activity over Barrow, the North slope and the adjacent ocean ( as far out as 80N!) and the obvious uptick in activity since 2012.

I'm sure we were all aware of the potential increase in wildfires over the coming decades, due to increased storm activity,and our ( European) record strike rates in June of this year but is this now creeping into the Arctic Basin???

We're doomed. I knew it. Just look at the name of the website. How biased could they be with a name like megididdo666 apocalypse for real?

It would be interesting to compare this data with previous warm periods over the last 4000 years.

Graywolf. ...I've been searching for historical lightening strike rates but no luck. ....do you know of a dataset??

[throttleup]

Does lightning melt ice? This could be serious! Are the polar bears alright??

[sigurdur]

The polar bears are "striking" a pose for the cameras

The nitrogen fixing will cause massive tree growth.

Just maybe the Yamal tree ring data is a lightening record. We are saved again, how many times can the world be saved in one year.

The emotion driven label shows the goal.

There are theories that lightning could increase with low sun activity and an increase in cosmic rays but also the solar winds can also cause lightning so further research is required.

Ya mean it isn't settled science?

Get in quick, Birder! Apply for a grant.

It is for I-tunes or some such thing.


Tried a Mac and will never try it again.

High priced underperforming piece of hardware.

With you Sig.

If its settled science its not science.
