If you have never seen a total eclipse, 2017 is probably your best chance (In the U.S.) for many. Mark your calendar! Aug 21! Be there or be square! Oh, and don't look at the light!

Graywolf,
You say that Arctic area bereft of ice take up heat. I suppose this might be possible in the summer, but in the winter, I would argue that ice free areas allow quite a bit of heat to escape from the ocean into the atmosphere. Ice with snow on top is an effective insulator keeping the heat in. Area's of open water would allow ocean heat to escape into the atmosphere. And then into space.
A negative reinforcement. Something that you would expect from a stable system. This would suggest that there is no "Tipping point", quite the opposite actually.

I might be behind on the news, and the news I get might be wrong, but if I understand correctly, there is no proof OR evidence that implicates the Russians. There are a few people high up in the Democrat party that have put forward that position, but the actual source is un-named.
My opinion is that someone inside the Democrat party leaked the emails the same way that the climate gate emails were leaked. More of a whistle-blower type of activity then espionage.

It's not just that Ratty. Trump is essentially Hitler reborn and the Russians hacked the election to put him in power so anything is justified in the effort against him. Did I miss the /sarc tag or are you serious? "Trump is essentially Hitler reborn". Really, I didn't know that?!? Can you give me any details about who is being exterminated, or why he is like Hitler? "Russians hacked the election." Really, I keep hearing that from unnamed administration officials. But these are the same people that gave us: 1. "If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor." - Bald faced lie. 2. The ACA will save each family $2500.00 a year for better coverage. - Bald faced lie. 3. Benghazi was caused by a video. - Bald faced lie. 4. This is the first I've heard about Hillary's email account. - Not only knew about it, but used it. 5. Interference in Israels elections. - Pot --> Kettle 6. That explained to Putin that they would have more "flexibility" after the mid-term elections. Takes money from Russians, colludes with Russians. This list could go on for pages and pages... Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the unnamed administration official is actually a guy high up in Hillary's circle. One thing that we DO know is that Hillary's first choice is to lie, even when the truth will serve. Does anyone disagree with this?

I disagree with two of his seeming assumptions. Number one, I'm hoping and have some reason to believe that Mr Trump is not an interventionist of the old mold. That's the good news (hopefully). Number two, he blithely states that a change in foreign policy means no more terrorist blow back. Me thinks he doesn't understand Islam. And that is the bad news. There is no reason to believe that the vengeful god of Ishmael is through with us yet ... no matter what we do. IMHO terror is baked into the pie for AT least another generation. Additionally I have seen nothing on the horizon that will improve the situation. Quite the opposite if you ask me. The next year or so will probably particularly bad, as Obama has done everything he can to aid terrorists, and with Trump moving in, the bad guys are going to have to act or take the risk of being fumigated before they can commit their atrocities.

Which one Non? Which one? Hillary is by far the worst of the 2. IMHO neither one is great, but I agree with Sigurdur, Clinton would be far worse. At least with Him, the fourth estate would do it's job, and the IRS and EPA and the others would not be as weaponized.

I think we will get another look at the offshore East Siberian shelf sea deposits this summer as the deposits continue into Yamal where we spotted the craters last year. We already have a few suspects to watch develop over the season? As it is Shakhova's team measured 'chimneys off the shore there in 2011 that were a few meters across. On her return in 2012 they had blossomed to over 1 km across! Are these the same features, as those now appearing on Yamal, but controlled by the waters above? It is critical that we attack this methane catastrophe today! For only a small new tax of 10% (More then you make.) We can save the planet. Additionally your malevolent er... benevolent government might have to tread on a few freedoms here and there. But, think of the children! After all, it is you (somehow) that is responsible for the methane pouring out of the seabed. (Somehow, we're sure of it, trust us.) We are pretty sure that it only started yesterday, but it will consume the planet in a vast fireball by next week if steps are not taken today! Now is not the time for democracy, fascism is not THAT bad, and it is the only thing that can save us. Really!

Temperature is not a good metric to determine cold, Sig. You know that ....... True dat. Once it gets below -25F, a few more degrees colder doesn't seem to make any diff. Kinda funny how it works tho, -20 thru -30F for a few weeks and zeroF feels like a heat wave! Second coldest! I used to live there. The warmest temperature I have ever experienced in Fairbanks is 22 below. I was there twice for 10 days the first time, and five days the second.

A Cat 5 into Miami? You would like that wouldn't you. What if it is a cat 2 off the North Carolina coast? What would it take for you to say that every storm, every snowdrift melting in the spring might not be CAGW?

Blob or no blob this isn't looking good for anywhere impacted. The coast of Haiti has sat for 3 hours now under constant 100mph winds ( with higher gusts) due to the slow movement of Matthew. Current plots nudge it even closer to Florida with the possibility of a Miami 'kiss' before he heads off for a date with North Carolina...... and then off to Long Island..... Had we not seen record warm temps all down the Eastern Seaboard it would not have been too bad but as things stand Matthew has plenty of fuel to keep him blustery and wet all the way up to New York. We have seen the extra moisture on land keep a storm fuelled this summer but this storm looks to be keeping his feet in the water as he strafes the east coast..... it's a good job you can't just see just how much AGW has augmented a storm as folk would then be putting $ values on the costs AGW added to such events ( and wondering if it's have been cheaper to stop polluting earlier?)...... So, along comes a Hurricane... In the middle of hurricane season. After years of below average hurricane activity. After years of below average Tornado activity. After years of below average fire activity... And you start preaching AGW. According to "Climate scientists." It is the hottest year ever, and yet I see no cause for concern. Yes, there have been a couple of hurricanes and typhoons. Just like when CO2 was 350 PPM. The only change is that we can track them better, and we build better. Wasn't global food production higher then ever this year? AGW is a failed hypothesis. No mid-tropospheric hot spot, no AGW. Period. The hypothesis has been invalidated. The entire thing is bunk. Every single TESTABLE prediction by AGW supporters has been wrong. Usually with the sign wrong. Proponents have taken to fraud to support their position. AGW has "augmented" the storm by about as much as the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin. Please, go back to your sandwich board with "The end is near" on it and quit with the doomsaying. We are all very tired of enriching leftists, fascists, and communists, but I repeat myself.
