| "Parts of eastern Antarctica have seen temperatures hover 70 degrees (40 Celsius) above normal for three days and counting, Wille said. He likened the event to the June heat wave in the Pacific Northwest, which scientists concluded would have been 'virtually impossible' without human-caused climate change." https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2022/03/18/antarctica-heat-wave-climate-change/ I don't know how reliable this site is, but it seems like it has cooled down considerably again at Vostok Station again: https://www.weatheronline.co.uk/weather/maps/city?LANG=en&WMO=89606&ART=MXMN&LEVEL=150 Saved chart from that site:  I was waiting to see if Jeff Masters and Bob Henson did a post about it, though they did have a post from a week ago that included some information on Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent. https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2022/03/february-2022-earths-7th-warmest-february-on-record/ Post also talked about La Niña. |
