We’ve been so fortunate up here in the Great Lakes. Only one day above 90 in the 10 day forecast here and it’s still gonna dip below 70 every night.
Heat dome won’t step to 5k cubic miles of cold water.
Be safe out there!
💀
Yes, it will. The reason we haven't been affected is simply because this isn't where this heat dome is. We can and will get them.
Just wait till the migrations start. Places like that are going to become very crowded in the coming years.
For now.
I heard you got 5 cubic miles of cold water... Sure would be a shame if that became 5 cubic miles of hot water.
The lakes hold 5500 cubic miles of water, not 5. But yes, the lakes have been warming, surface temps on Superior are 2.5C hotter than they were 50 yrs ago. Which is alarming no doubt. The deep temps in Superior remain a constant 4C all year round and that temp seems to be pretty stable.
We got lucky with the lake winds this week. That’s all.
People who think climate change is going to spare this region are overstating the case by a lot. That said, I guess being on defense in the water wars will be better than being on offense… maybe?
