    The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulafft, at Bergen, Norway.

    Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

    Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.


    As reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post, November 2, 1922. — 97 years ago!

    For most of the past 100 million years, the South Pole was a tropical paradise. Extreme shifts in climate conditions are normal for the earth, and weather disasters have always occurred.

    Obviously, something is happening, but I tend to lean more to it being part of an earth cycle than as the result of my hair spray and gasoline fumes.

    Kind of on the fence with this one, i believe yes with earth cycle, i believe yes with the climate change, i believe yes with the ozone layer rapidly thinning. All of the extreme weather being experience in the last years all over the world, contributing factors can be from one or all the earth cycle, climate change, and disappearing ozone. No matter weather that has appeared, it's always extreme. So if we think it's extreme now, what will it be like in 20 years. Today was one of those, the sky itself looked like something out of a scare movie. Ken, yes, weather disasters have always occurred, but don't you think the intensity has heighten.

    No, only the agenda-driven hype has heightened.

    If there is going to be a truly worldwide climate change, it probably won't be apparent until the next century.

    There's nothing there that a few years of therapy won't fix.

    So much for world concern. She must be auditioning for her next casting.

    Normal weather would be nice. I know there's extreme weather all over, but our weather has been so wet, harvest is so limited, rain for days, then sunny for a day or two, by the time the crop may be dry enough, it rain again. Those who have air blown bins, are on every day to dry out the grain and try to keep it dry. the other challenge it the saturated ground, equipment getting stuck in the fields. Our community depends on farmers. woke up to a good frost this morning, - 2, maybe that will clear up the weather.
