I seem to have lost my winter . Getting close to a month of days above normal temps.
Heres some pics from around here. We had a high of 67 today but i got to the picture taking to late to record it.
And heres an interesting story......The Ayles Ice Shelf¢‚¬all 41 square miles of it¢‚¬broke clear 16 months ago from the coast of Ellesmere Island, about 500 miles south of the North Pole in the Canadian Arctic.¢‚¬Å“This is a dramatic and disturbing event. It shows that we are losing remarkable features of the Canadian North that have been in place for many thousands of years,'' Vincent said
The ice shelf was one of six major shelves remaining in Canada's Arctic. They are packed with ancient ice that is more than 3,000 years old. They float on the sea but are connected to land.

Good thing this is all about media hype and funding research becouse than we might have to worry
