Clouds with uniform ripples in the Beaufort Sea

More strangeness in the Arctic

As I've pointed out before it is strange what you can pick up by zooming in on the satellite pictures from NASA Worldview.

One thing that I can't avoid is that while we are being shown charts that are designed to demonstrate that the sea ice extent is nothing 'exceptional' (although there are a few articles, none from major mainstream sources such as the Washington Post or the Guardian,that are pointing out that the ice is not refreezing we have a large body of water, the Beaufort Sea, all 476,000 km² of it that is BLUE OCEAN.

Have a look at the pictures for the past few weeks. No sign of icebergs even - blue ocean.

I have seen practically NO acknowledgement of this, let alone discussion.

And then there continue to be strange phenomena in the photos that defy conventional explanation.

I have yet to see it for myself but I am told that these phenomena are caught on the site but later 'airbrushed out'.

What you can see in the images below are ripples in the clouds over the ocean adjacent to the ice cap. The photos of the sea have parallel and very uniform,like ripples.

This looks strange enough to me.

But have a look at the following which is taken in the Beaufort Sea

There has been some information about the Vavilov ice which is melting more quickly than previously thought.

However,have a look a the sea to the right.

Just in case you think that is limited to one geographic area here is a photograph of cloud cover over Sweden.

It is always possible to come up with a hastily-thought- out explanation. Perhaps it is a factor of the satellite equipment that produces an "optical effect" or this is absolutely "normal" cloud in the "new normal".

Why are these effects only seen in the Arctic and not elsewhere? Why are there no parallel,symmetrical lines in this photo of the Gulf of Mexico for example?

 

Why does the following photo of the Beaufort Sea in clear weather seem normal whereas before the photos showed strange effects that I have talked about before?

I have no natural explanation for any of this and in general I prefer a well-though-out "conspiracy theory" to some half-baked argument to argue away a phenomenon that is hard to find an explanation.

There are many,many things that are beyond the ability of reductionistic science to explain.

The best I can do is leave you with Hamlet.

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,

Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
