28.4°C um 4 Uhr morgens im Dunkeln auf 54°N an der Ostsee.
Abstrus.
Direkt am Strand ist es 24°C. -
It’s June 14 and we had frost last night. Fortunately I’m a procrastinator and hadn’t put in my transplants yet. #cLiMAtEweIrDiNG

We've barely gotten any snow in #Maine this winter (a few inches the other night). However, #Florida, on the other hand...
Historic snowstorm hitting the South from Texas to Florida
Debilitating travel conditions and power outages are possible.
By Kenton Gewecke and Emily Shapiro
January 21, 2025"The first ever blizzard warning has been issued for parts of the Texas and Louisiana coast as a historic snowstorm hits the South.
"Debilitating travel conditions and power outages are possible across the region."

Not just the #GulfOfMaine waters that are cooling all of a sudden...
Waters off Scotian Shelf are cooling, but scientists can't say for how long
Lower temperatures have scientists wondering if decade-long warming trend is over
Paul Withers · CBC News · Posted: May 08, 2024
"Since 2012, ocean temperatures off Nova Scotia at depth have been consistently warmer — by about two degrees above normal.
"For example, near-bottom warming anomalies were detected in the Cabot Strait between Cape Breton and Newfoundland, Misaine Bank off Cape Breton, Emerald Basin on the Eastern Shore and Lurcher Shoal, Georges Basin and Georges Bank off southern Nova Scotia.
"The large and abrupt warming was enough to constitute a regime shift, said Dave Hebert, an ocean climate scientist who has run the Maritimes survey twice annually for many years.
"Regime shift indicates a persistent change in the structure and function of the ocean ecosystem."

[Paywall -- full text in post] Scientists puzzled by colder deep water temperatures in #GulfOfMaine
by Nicole Ogrysko, Maine Public May 15, 2024
"About a dozen years ago, the Gulf of Maine experienced an #OceanHeatwave unlike any other.
"Today, scientists are puzzling over new data that suggest the gulf may be experiencing another kind of
climate shock."Data collected from buoys placed in the Gulf of Maine show that over the last six months, deep water
temperatures are noticeably lower than the long-term average."'It’s not just cold in the deep waters right now, it’s really cold. And it’s fresher, it’s really fresher than it’s been,' said Nick Record, a senior scientist with Bigelow Laboratory. 'These are very unusual conditions, so I think there’s a lot that we can learn by watching how the year unfolds.'
"The Gulf of Maine is still one of the fastest warming oceans on the planet, Record said. The ocean #heatwave that hit the Gulf of Maine back in 2012 served as a prime example of the kind of surface temperature warming that much of the #AtlanticOcean has been experiencing.
"But #ClimateChange creates more unpredictable conditions, and Record said the Gulf of Maine may be experiencing another kind of #ClimateShock, similar to a late season #frost.
"'In some ways if we’re just expecting long term warming, we could be surprised when, even temporarily, we get these weird reversals to a cold situation. The more we can condition ourselves to think about surprises, what they might mean for us, the more we can be proactive and more be adaptive,' Record said.
"It’s not clear how long this pattern will hold, Record said. Because colder water makes for prime feeding habitat for critically endangered North Atlantic #RightWhales, Record said he’ll watch for whether right whales return to the Gulf of Maine in larger numbers this summer than they have in recent years."Colder deep water may also change conditions for the #lobster population. Deep water temperatures affect the timing of lobster molts, the presence of shell disease and other population impacts, Record said.'"

This nonstop #lakeeffect in #wny / #buffalo is wild, but has anyone looked at the flooding risks due to the coming unusually warm weather? Several feet of snow sucks, several feet of rapidly melting snow can be cataclysmic...

Unseasonal warmth led to Monday’s record-breaking storm
By Lori Valigra December 22, 2023
"Warmer temperatures near the ground in Maine helped create unusually high winds on Monday — up to 93 mph in one area of the state — that caused some of the highest power outage numbers on record.
"Temperatures rose into the 50s on average across Maine, which is unseasonably high compared with the mid-20s and low 30s typical of this time of year. The warmer air, which is lighter than cold air, allowed strong winds from the atmosphere to push to the ground, according to Derek Schroeter, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Gray. Colder temperatures near the ground normally would have kept the winds aloft, he said, because colder air is denser.
"It would be difficult to directly link climate change as a cause of this or any one particular storm, he said, because it is measured over long periods of time. But storms are getting more frequent and severe because of warming air and water temperatures that come with climate change.
"This year may end up being the warmest on record for the planet, with November 2022 through October 2023 being the hottest 12 months, according to Climate Central."

"An astonishing smorgasbord of extreme weather gripped the U.S. this week, with blizzards and epic snows in the West and Northern Plains, a deadly ice storm in the Midwest, and summerlike heat in the East and South."
