Not as extreme as last week but it's still very cold in northern Alaska and Canada.
-47F/-44C in Nuiqsut, Alaska with a wind chill of -70F/-57C. Reached -76F/-60C a few days ago. -45F/-43C in Deadhorse with a wind chill of of -65F/-54C -38F/-39C in Point Lay, but wind chill of -66F/-54C A few other stations with similar cold. Only Point Lay has more than a light wind, and it is only 13mph/21kph. With temperatures that low it doesn't take much for the wind chill to be extreme. Also on the other side of the continent: Rankin Inlet -33F/-36C, 26mph/42kph wind, wind chill -66F/-54C, blizzard warning in effect. 3 different stations in the north slope are reporting dew points in the -70s. Deadhorse, Point Lay, and Atqasuk. All around 10% RH. I don't think humidity that low is possible. They are not next to each other either. |

^In the obs, the dew point column should always report "NA" when the temps are below -30F. If it doesn't, then the measurement is BS.
Edit: First time since 2012. High arctic winters have been getting shit for too long.

More deep cold in Summit Camp Greenland. Hovering close to -60C for the past 4 days.  I believe it reached -65C last month as Hiromant pointed out earlier (I wasn't able to verify that from actual dataset, but I think it's accurate because Ogimet reports that the Greenhouse temp was around -60: www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?lang=en&ind=04416&ndays=30&ano=2020&mes=01&day=12&hora=00&ord=REV&Send=Send). Meanwhile, no spring in sight for the Territories and interior AK. Check the forecast for Yellowknife, Fairbanks, Whitehorse, etc. All heading below 0F around mid first week of March, and -40 in central NU.  |

Still extremely cold in northern Alaska and Canada. Bettles, Alaska reached -51F/-46C this morning with a few other stations in the -40s. Fairbanks reached -35F/-37C.  The north slope is cold too. Kuparuk near Deadhorse is reporting -38F/-39C with a 17mph/27kph wind, wind chill -70F/-57C. Deadhorse is -36 and 15mph. Northern Canada is cold too, of course. Extreme cold warnings in effect in a few towns. Shepherd Bay is the coldest I see, reporting -42F/-41C with a 21mph/34kph wind at 11am. Earlier today it was -49F/-45C with a 18mph/29kph wind, for a wind chill of -85F/-65C   Resolute and Eureka are less windy, but colder. Nothing even close to spring in the forecast.   Data found on this site www.wrh.noaa.gov/map/?obs=true&wfo=sew |

There's good news and bad news for NWT. The bad news is that Yellowknife has gotten its first case of coronavirus, they've shut the borders, and the travel restrictions have crippled the local businesses for the past 2 months (usually March sees a massive influx of tourists from throughout Canada, China, Korea, and Japan because of the Snowking winter festival, and this drives the local economy: www.snowking.ca/ ). The good news is that the weather looks absolutely terrific! Getting close to -30C in late March is just a pipe dream for most people.  |

Maybe for you, but most people don't like -30°C... |

Yes most people... in the professional polar foaming community
Yakutsk just reached 0c for the first time this year.
Oymyakon and Verkhoyansk .... still a few days or even weeks away. At night they've still been hitting -30C every single night. Epic diurnals.

It's definitely an interesting stat, but personally I have a problem with sources which draw ideologically charged conclusions (in either direction) from the data. Raw numbers with no conclusions generally tend to be more credible. In this case it's available but I couldn't find the exact -66c in the greenland record low case (I did find -64 though). Also it's -75.3 not -73.5. www.ogimet.com/cgi-bin/gsynres?lang=en&ind=89606&ano=2020&mes=3&day=23&hora=15&min=0&ndays=30 |

The article nicely balances out the AGW hysteria caused by the recent Antarctic record high. And yes, CO2 is the gas of life, the planet is already greening thanks to its higher levels. Look it up.

That 100% looks like something AW would write Nice ad-hominem argument, buddy. I do not put spaces between the em-dash and the words which are joined. More importantly, I have never once argued the largely-quantified Greenhouse Effect; I do not argue the physics—only the data whereby false conclusions may be drawn from. You seriously need to re-consider your very existance if that's the best you've got, you mental subhuman. |
