When a hurricane starts is the surface water warmer than the air above? Certainly the summer air cools faster (as fall approaches) than the summer water does but is that the story? Edited on 08-09-2019 20:47 |

Is it correct that the (tropical storm) starts above the surface? |

keepit wrote: We've had hurricanes in December, sometimes late December too. Remember Hurricane Sandy a few years ago, which later was known as Super-Storm Sandy? They were having one of their severe winter storms, which combined with Sandy, to really make a mess of the northeast. Hurricanes are just a combination of many things, all coming together, at the same time and place. Summer just brings a few of those condition together, pretty much daily. I think cold wind blowing down from the north has some to do with it. Guess Global Warming is good for something... No more more frozen north (Greenland is melting), less chance of hurricanes. But, of course I'm wrong, since cold air has nothing to do with Climate Change, and has no significant impact (or some other dismissive phrasing). Cooling is 'denier' science, and total bullshit... |

keepit wrote: Is it correct that the (tropical storm) starts above the surface? Hurricanes, tropical storms, low pressure systems, etc... they all form from warm air rising and cold air descending which causes the storm. I'm not sure about exactly what you are asking but I think the answer is yes, that entire column from the ground up in which the rising/descending of air is occurring is "where" the storm forms. .

another question - about thermohaline circulation. I've heard that greenland melting will slow down the thermohaline circulation. Therefore, the thermal energy from the equator won't make it up to greenland and the oceans where the hurricanes form will be even warmer. |

It is largely an ice plateau at 6000 ft above sea level at approx. latitude 72 degN. This plateau is surrounded by mountains on all sides. The only outlet is through a gap in the mountains in the northwest of the nation. There is no river there, just a glacier. The only current that passes by Greenland is the North Atlantic Drift, a cold current, running along the bottom. Cold water from Greenland or from the Artic ocean simply combines with this cold current. Cold water does not block the flow of cold water.

Greenland is melting (net). The THC does send warm water in greenland's direction but - according to Wiki, a weakening of the THC in 2013 caused a weaker hurricane season. Go figure? |

Check my signature block; one of this site's warmizombies resorted to disputing the meaning of "accumulation" as a smokescreen for the evidence I provided. Do you know what calving is? The fact that it is happening tells you clearly, beyond any doubt, that the ice mass is increasing. Are you aware that anything abandoned on the ice in Greenland becomes buried under ice at the rate of meters per year? If Greenland were melting (net) then objects would remain on top ... it would not be possible for them to teleport down hundreds of meters into the ice. . I don't think i can [define it].

A consensus doesn't mean much. Billions of people believe in one god or another. Isn't that a consensus, that god exists? Therefore, god is going to fix everything, or destroy it, we have no control over it. Consensus is a shared belief/faith, doesn't prove or disprove anything, just that a group of people came to an agreement. Ice melts pretty much every summer, even before we burned fossil fuels, chunks of floating ice was the cause of many ship wrecks. It's well documented in ship logs, it's nothing new. Every winter, the ice returns, so it can again melt, break off, and wreck some ships. It never ends... Wouldn't we be much better of if all that ice finally melted? Wouldn't Greenland, actual be green again? If something isn't broken, why would you take it apart and 'fix' it? Nature isn't always kind or pretty, like in the movies. It's kind of rough and unpleasant a lot of the time, we just learned to adapt to it, not how to change it. We didn't stop the rain, snow, or summer heat, we built shelters to protect us. It's still raining, snowing, the sun shining bright, just outside. Anyway, if consensus really matters, then god exists, and will either fix it, or not, since there is a much larger consensus, that says so... |

Why only those months, for just hose two years? Best you could dig up, to prove something? Actually, Google does the work for you. I try occasionally to pull out satellite images, for the month before the annual melt, but very hard to do for each year. The search results are spammed by global warming crap, and images of catastrophic melting. The melt/freeze cycle happens every year, usually more melting, but not consistent for every year. I think by viewing the max/min ice each year, side-by-side, without selecting the bast ones, it would be pretty obvious, that it's different every year, and trend. People get so wrapped up in the warming, they don't pay attention the annual cooling. You see only the parts you want to see, ignore everything else. If global warming was actually a problem, then every year would be consistently worse than the previous, no breaks, no back-tracking. It isn't that obvious, because it would exist without some misleading math to smooth over anything that might get in the way of selling the hysteria. Sort of like going to a used car lot, there is a price on the windshield. You know that, there is some wiggle room, if you work at. The salesman knows you are going to try, and will do his best to stick the price advertised. After a while, he'll give in just a little, keep you interested, let you feel like you are winning. When you sit down in the office, to do the paperwork, your hard negotiating quickly shrinks, with all the taxes, fees, and BS, you don't know if you really need to be paying. The final total, is still going to be more than the price you saw on the windshield. You might be able to catch a few fees that the salesman, may or may not take of the bill of sales, just because his says so, doesn't mean he did. Basically, nothing really changed, just talked about it a lot, and you leave feeling like you got a good deal, or leave feeling screwed over... Except for James... Most people don't like to walk away feeling screwed over. You would be at the car lot, if you didn't need a car. You could walk away, and try a different lot, which will be more of the same, maybe a salesman of better skills, or you run out of patience and time. Obviously, private sales of vehicles are better, the owner isn't likely a skill salesman, and knows what's wrong with the car, less likely to successfully lie about it, when asked. |
