No havens from Climate impacts.
Two words that normally don’t go together are “Maine” and “hurricane”, but that’s where we are.
Models showing Lee could maintain hurricane strength right up into Northern waters and the Maine to Nova Scotia coastline.
Looks like this is going to be a thing. Last year, Hurricane Fiona slammed into Canada leaving record damages, but then continued on to bring an atmospheric river on to the Greenland Ice Sheet, as Jason Box describes below.
As ocean temperatures rise, big storms can remain powerful even as they move further north, potentially creating yet another unforeseen feedback effect, accelerating the melt of Greenland ice.
Below, quick animation vividly illustrates the process Jason describes.
