Tropospheric Warming

Timothy Birdnow

In a discussion group I belong to on Facebook a poster asked why the troposphere was warming (slightly). He was challenging skeptics to give him an explanation. Here's mine:

Mostly because we have been coming out of a cool period, and because we last year we had a dearth of cloud cover to reflect the heat back into space.


The model predicts a far more robust warming in the whole troposphere but in particular in the tropical troposphere - it just isn't living up to the models.

1 Wonderful and engaging content. The explanations are simple yet effective. While checking online information related to Delhi Call Girls, I found your blog insightful and useful. Keep publishing such quality articles.

2 I haven't been measuring the troposphere lately, but our atmosphere here in Minnesota has been giving us daytime temperatures well into the 40s and even into the 50s these last few days. I should be complaining that it's too warm for this time of year but I can't bring myself to do it. Tomorrow we're supposed to have a high of 44 -- and a 50% chance of a "frozen mix" which we're not looking forward to, since the wife and I have a bunch of driving to do.

3 How horrible Dana; you guys are actually above the freezing point of nitrogen! I'm sure that has to be a welcome development in the land of the midnight sun, or whatever they call your little slice of tundra!
We were up in the sixties and will remain so for most of the rest of the week. That's not at all unusual for Missouri this time of year. If I were up to it I'd head down to the Ozark Hilton, but I would need more firewood.

4 Starting about 1:30 this afternoon we started to get a real snowstorm. Martha had to go to the school for a rehearsal and it took her about three hours to get there -- three times the usual drive time! She's on her way home now and I don't know how long it'll take her.
