Snow cover is quickly expanding across the Arctic, as happens every early autumn. Details in the most recent post from the Alaska and Arctic Climate newsletter. #Arctic #akwx #Climate #Autumn2026
September 2026 #Arctic sea ice extent was the 13th lowest on record for the month...
This was 1,600,000 km² below the 1981-2010 average. September ice extent is decreasing at about 11.56% per decade (albeit with clear multi-decadal variability). Data: @nsidc.bsky.social at nsidc.org/data/seaice_...
Age really is just a number to these chilled out sharks.

A simple #geoengineering approach seems to restore dwindling #Arctic #ice in pilot studies. Could it actually work at a larger scale? In PNAS Front Matter: https://ow.ly/iwt550ZU1wh
WHY do #unAmericans of #TheAmericaS still tolerate this misappropriated bullshit⁉️
We need to call THESE fuckwits something -ANYTHING!- else…
personally, given their ignorant prediction to #mispronounce #Arctic as #OurDick I’m super partial to #Muricun 🇺🇸

Snow cover across the Arctic is increasing. As of Wednesday, more than a quarter of Arctic lands (excluding the Greenland Ice Sheet) had snow on the ground in U.S. National Ice Center analysis. By December, nearly all land north of 60ºN will have snow cover. #Arctic #Climate #Autumn2026
