barrow alaska broke its all time high temp record by 5 degrees yesterday....it was 79

[Tomahawk]

79 is an all-time high?! Alaska can go farg itself

[ice grillin you]

well its the northernmost town in america...i personally was a little surprised at how high it was...i didnt think they ever even got into the 70's that far up....they do have 24 hrs daylight this time of the year which obviously helps the temp a lot

Where are you getting this fake news... the high in Barrow yesterday was 60, the all-time high was in 1993, and the previous record before '93 was 78 in 1927.

uh oh

It wouldn't be so bad if the white, reflective snow and ice still covered the tundra, but since it's melted away exposing the ground, everything gets hotter and holds heat longer.

Science.

Or, if you're a Trump guy who thinks it's all bullshtein, it's a great opportunity to apply massive amounts of roundup and call in the concrete crew.

was reading just today that because of the polar bears losing all their ice they are going to turn to a new source of food.....humans

FWIW - weather channel shows the high for today to be 73.

Also nothing on Google News about any record high in Barrow.

[smeags]

that's what I saw on the app.

edit - weird because the website says 51.

meh, whatever.

twice as many hurricanes have hit maine in the last 165 years as have hit the entire middle atlantic combined

[Tomahawk]

If the fatass polar bears need food so farging bad, instead of eating white people, they should pull themselves up by the bootstraps and get jobs

[Tomahawk]

Nm

[ice grillin you]

in fact md and de have only twice ever experienced even hurricane "conditions" since 1851
