I’m Not Predicting That Arctic Maximum For 2019 Has Occurred on Day 70 – 2019

Published on by sunshinehours13 Comments

I’m not predicting that Arctic had reached maximum for 2019 on 70 (because that didn’t work out so well for Antarctica).

But if it had reached max it was the 8th lowest.

Not much of a climate emergency.
