Thank you for the warning. Well, if this "day after tomorrow" scenario is. confirmed, won't need to worry about anything else. I'll give it 24 hours to see how bad it gets

Meanwhile let's see how many scream "HAARP"!!!...it's gonna be annoying.

Saw this thread this morning, and googled "Ice sheets," it turns out, we might not have anything to worry about...

Doom-laden predictions that the seas are set to rise by a metre or more this century due to the melting of the Greenland ice sheet are well off the mark, a team of scientists has announced in a new study of the matter.

Source article


So I guess time will tell whether the scientists are right or not.

Interestingly enough someone else mentioned "The day after tomorrow" that all began with a huge shelf of ice breaking off.

For the moment I guess its all a waiting game.

I live in Canada!

It was a hot and humid summer so far. Not much rain in July,but things are picking up in the precipitation department since August started.

Summer is so short here.

Montreal that is! Canada is pretty big. Yeah...

It's normal.

Pull above over south pole. This storm is HUGE.

www.oceanweather.com...

Use global selection on left hand menu.

This shows wave heights of 40 feet in the 2 areas.

I don't know so much about this area but is this normal.

edit on 9-8-2012 by murch because: fixing links

While looking into this storm I stumbled over another page detail an ongoing storm in the north pole region so I have changed title of thread.

neven1.typepad.com...

PS pillaging other forums for info.

ALL storms of this size affect global weather.

I am assuming a storm this size has got to have a global impact. Anyone from the southern hemisphere got anything to report.

This thread is about predicting a tsunami in Australia.

If this storm was to shift near to Australia could it cause a massive storm surge. Don't storms increase in strength over water.

Input appreciated.

im in melbourne,very wet wind and cold which is normal for this time a year

Except that the claimed storm does not exist.

The response is, so what. If there is a rain storm over both San Fran and New York, so what. If there is snow in Paris and Atlanta at the same time, so what.

I have to say thanks for the heads up.I'm counting on the good people at ats to keep me informed of these important issues as I live right across the street from the Atlantic ocean.
I'm sure there are quite a few ats'ers on the east coast that need a jump on possible evacuations if this becomes necessary.

I will follow this thread with great interest...thanks again

false alarm,but my post still stands for possible future events

Please, at least have the courtesy to inform poster that OP has admitted that weather patterns are normal for southern storm after further research and input from other posters,

Yes it was a claim and was posted in ignorance but we all are here to learn.

Please stop flagging and replying to this thread. I am the OP and made an error through excitement and ignorance. The southern weather pattern is normal for this time of year (winter) it just looked and is impressive but nothing out of the norm.

If you want to take anything away from this thread then take the theory of rapid ice melt caused by the northern storm.

At this time of the year northern storms can have a drastic affect on the ice sheets due to water and wind movement breaking up ice packs and contributing to the ice melting quicker.

I wonder why the oceans are not vaporizing.

South Africa has had snow in all of our provinces (9 Provinces) this week, a record in our history, so, yes.

It is chilly at the moment, but nothing like few a few days back. We have had a warning for another cold front that will reach Cape Town on Friday morning. So, it will hit the rest of South Africa by Sunday, if accurate.

Only time will tell.

meh

I wonder if these storms at the poles are causing this action here where we live?
classic.wunderground.com...

Just hit the animate button on the bottom of the radar.

This System has been going in circles since this morning and it is not looking like it is ready to move on.
Born and raised here, I have seen this before but not very often.

From Tasmania: A few buoys on the east coast last week measured a 30m drop in the water. It has been soo so so cold here lately. We've had some really crazy winds here over the last week. A few US scientists needed to be rescued from antartctica yesterday i think.
