There is a huge event being forecasted this year by the CFSV2, and I don't know if anyone else is mentioning this. For the first time in over a decade, the Arctic sea ice anomaly in the
summer is forecast to be near or above normal for a time! While it has approached the normals at the end of the winter season a couple of times because of new ice growth, this signals something completely different - that multiyear growth means business - and it shows the theory on the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) is likely to be on target.
Once it flips, this red herring of climate panic will be gone. Global and Southern Hemisphere anomalies are already unmentionable since the former is well above normal and the latter is routinely busting daily records.The biggest minimum anomalies are in the summer since this flipped, and the only peaks came very close to the height of winters once this melting was underway.
Now look at what the CFSV2 forecasted for 2012.
The brief positive anomaly hit early, but for the summer it's well below normal. In 2013, it's the same, though not as far.
But this year it's forecast to be around normal in August!
This is only with a yearly AMO back off. I don't think this is the real deal of the flip yet. But it makes the point that one can correlate the ice in the Arctic with the Atlantic cycle.
If we look at the cold AMO years we can plainly see why this is going on.
The Jamstec model is forecasting water temps this summer to be much colder in the north Atlantic than the map above. but still not cold enough to say this is the permanent flip. It is, however, a sign of what is to come.
It should be obvious as to who is the boss here,
and with the warm AMO in its waning years, the Arctic sea ice hysteria will wind up where so many agenda driven items do - on the ash heap of history.This, if correct, is going to be a huge story. It would be the first summer where Arctic sea ice returned to near normal, indicative of the increase in multiyear ice and what a turn to the colder AMO in the future means! Let's see if anyone else picks up on it.
By the way, this same kind of evolution through the fall and into the winter
would lead to another harsh U.S. winter.
If that 2014 Anomaly hits true, then the Summer Arctic Melt season will be weak, leading to a lot more ice left up there when the Sun goes down in late September. And from there, it will get a big jump start for the next month, before returning to recent freeze-up rates. The Arctic will then mirror the Antarctic, which is truly on a record-busting tear.
If true, then you don't want to be anywhere near the Arctic come September, unless you are tired of living.
