With Great Lakes ice extent blowing away all records for two years in a row, the National Wildlife Federation says Great Lakes ice is about to disappear forever.

Three equivocating words, “may,” “mostly” and “typical,” expose this nonsense for the propaganda that it is.
Hysterical.
Roy Spencer has pictures supporting the data indicating increased great lakes ice.
I live on Superior durring the winters. I can tell you this is 100% BS. They froze over completely last winter. This one just passed was well over 90% frozen.
Chicago had a concrete shortage last year in the fall because of the reduced amount of shipping due to the ice coverage on the great lakes. I expect this to happen again this year.
Well a glacier is no lake.
Gator, don’t give someone a title for a new article.
GLACIERS ARE BECOMING LAKES (AND THEN BOILING AWAY)
Commies.
Am I missing something? When water evaporates, it cools the water body, favoring ice formation. And the vapor pressure of water and ice at 0°C are almost the same at 0.61 kPa. So ice and water at 0°C give you almost the same evaporation rate. Unless the ambient temperatures are significantly increased, there should be little chance there would be no ice formation.
The other story on the Lakes is levels have continued to rise over the past two years, so much so that the IJC has had to almost double the flows on the St. Mary’s River. It used to be about 3-4 gates equivalent during lower water years. As far as I can find it’s been 7 since last June. Without that action, Superior would have started hitting record levels.
When levels are down again who will remember that humans cut off the peak and caused the water to drop. Nobody.

It is obvious from that chart that global warming is out of control. We had better enact a HUGE carbon tax RIGHT NOW or we will all die! (sarc)

My diagnosis is Brain ischemia from the bow tie resulting a head ache and over the long term a sub normal IQ.
In more than 20 years of experincing Michigan winters, not one of them was described as normal. All the 8nes I experienced were not noral. So, any Great Lakes ice coverage has to be not normal.
There is no such thing as “normal” in climate, or weather. The only thing we have are “averages” over time.
I educated my state climatologist on this matter a few years ago, and he sent me a thank you response, and no longer uses the term “normal” on his website.
My wife never called me normal. I didn’t have to educate her.
My wife married me because, as she put it, “Your not normal” but now that we’ve been married for nearly 32 years she will on occasion tell me “Your just not right”!
Normal? Neither my wife nor I was ever normal, either of us. Ever. We laugh at the merely normal. Neurotypicals? Ewwwww!
I don’t know what to say, Jason, but that is not normal.
Normal? Who wants normal? It is so boring.

The Great Lakes are crazy hot this summer. Lake Erie is on fire. Lake Superior is almost swimmable, much warmer than 2014 and even 2013.
It’s going to be tough to freeze them like the last 2 winters did.
