Water temperature of the Great Lakes is over 6 degrees colder than normal

Anthony Watts / 5 hours ago October 14, 2014

Meteorologist Mark Torregrossa writes on Michigan Live about the lingering effect of historic ice extent last winter in the Great Lakes and late ice melt this summer due to that extent:

Quote
Lakes Superior and Lake Michigan are currently six degrees colder than last year. If the water continues to remain colder than normal, it could have an impact on Michigan’s winter in several ways.

The average water temperature on Lake Superior and Lake Michigan is currently colder than both last year and the long-term average.

Currently Lake Superior has an average surface water temperature of 47.6 degrees. Last year on this date Lake Superior was at 53.7 degrees. The long-term average water temperature on Lake Superior for October 11 is 51.1 degrees.

So Lake Superior is 6.1 degrees colder than this time last year, and 3.5 degrees colder than normal.

Glowbull warming, indeed! :whistling:

IIRC one of the lakes had a larger ice cover last winter, and it took longer to clear this year than in recent years.

It's almost like the Global Warming cultists are trying to hide the truth about global cooling for some reason.

This cooling trend is getting embarrassing. But let it never be said that libs aren't opportunistic. With a little more prodding we can go back to the lib ice age predictions of the 1970s.
