The Jet Stream and Thermohaline Conveyors like the Humboldt and the Gulfstream are the Sine Quo Nons of weather along with the Arctic.
The End of Arctic Ice Melt and Major Hurricane Formation Exactly coincide at September 10.
A Warm Arctic throws the Global Jet Stream completely out of whack.
This year the Jet went all the way down to Texas and then straight up to the Hudson Bay.
Looking for it to Reverse and go from Manitoba straight down to Texas.
We're going to wobble back and forth increasingly erratically til the New Steady State presents itself.
Obviously there will be a lot fewer humans around when that happens.

Post Tue Sep 04, 2012 10:19 am by mcgowanjm I've been reading 'Neven' since March.
And He/They have gone from 'Dry Scientist Chatter' to 'Day After Tomorrow' rants.
Just utterly amazing.
Even as there is to Today Not One AP piece connecting 2012 Record Breaking Heat/Drought/Flood to Climate Change.
And 8% of Record Weather articles of USSAMSM have mentioned Climate Change.
where we are with regards Arctic sea ice, and where we're headed.
I am asserting that 2010 was a key event, one with repercussions for the future, that will be seen in years to come as important a turning point as 2007 itself. Indeed 2010 may even have ushered in what Dr Peter Wadhams has said probably be a succession of crashes: "I think the next two or three years will see a further collapse and we'll then be encountering an Arctic ocean without sea ice in it during the summer months" BBC News 24, 19:23 27/8/12. A year ago I'd have disagreed, now I think he may be correct.
