It’s winter in Antarctica, when sea ice cover typically grows. But this year’s sea ice is way behind, reaching record lows with implications for the planet.
I live in Florida and expect a pretty nasty hurricane season.
The extra water from the ice sheets melting will mean more flood waters and possibly more 15-20% more dangerous hurricanes as the event expels that excess water all over the state.
Not to mention it is still speculation if the warmer weather won’t cause dead regions where weather is slower, meaning these hurricanes could be slower to dissipate too.
I was really hoping that 3rd graph wasn’t real, but it is true, the ice melt is going to be insane this year.

It is insane…and still only at the point of raising sea level a few mm per year.
