"We’re in the midst of a historic heat wave across Canada’s Far North as the region roasts beneath some of North America’s hottest temperatures.
Several communities in the Northwest Territories recorded their all-time highest readings this week. This is only the second true heat wave observed in Inuvik, where temperatures are nearly double where they should be for this point in August…"
Nearly 36 degrees (that’s 96 Freedom Units) in the Arctic circle?!?
How is this not bigger news?!
We’re so fucked :(
I’m not sure if it’s related but all of the smoke from the west coast fires is going north at the moment.
You’re right! It will probably block out the sun and lower the temperature… right?
It’s not that simple when it doesn’t block all of the sun. It can absorb heat yes, but that doesn’t always mean lowering temperature.
Nah, it will be like a nice chill smoky blanket, keep the ice from melting like a Costco cool bag
Rare? Or will it become the ‘new normal’?!
Come on, again???
Insert Simpsons-meme with Homer saying “Exceptionally rare until now.” to Bart here +___+
