catbirdseat Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 This could be bad for ice climbing and skiing next winter. Can we expect a warmer and drier winter of 2004? Science Daily Story Background information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrambler Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Henry Rollins has a bit on El Nino in his spoken word work, Think Tank. F'ing funny. Like he says we should rename El Nino to 'the muthaphucker' or to the 'first 4 Black Sabbath albums'. El Nino, the child, just doesn't do it. Did you know that there are corresponding changes in the Earth's rotational rate and length of day? Has something to do with the shift of atmospheric and oceanic mass, and perhaps geophysical changes within the Earth's mantle/core. Really brings a lot of unpredictable weather to the picture. Screws with biota too. Throws a lot of plants out of whack because they're tuned to a particular weather pattern occurring at a certain period of time. Affects biological clocks in other life too. Worse than the '82 El Nino? That's serious shit. So you're thinking it'll screw our winter climbing season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hasbeen Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Anyone else bothered by the 1997 date of the article? Don't think we are going to have to worry about 2004, at least not on the basis of this article. Happy New Year, everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
