Home/BlogWe visited Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore by boat on June 16, 2014, and there was still unmelted ice and snow piles in the shadows of the rock cliffs, just above the Lake Superior waterline.
This particular pile was about 30-40 feet long and looked to be about 6 feet thick:
Large pile of snow and ice, Pictured Rocks, Michigan, June 16, 2014.
For those wondering about “Icezilla“, it appears from MODIS satellite imagery to have been beached by strong winds on the southeast shore of Michigan Island, in Michigan’s Apostle Islands in western Lake Superior.
Hi Roy,
Apparently, winter type storms will take place in late Spring & perhaps early summer (we’ll see)! This link may prove interesting: http://www.weather.com/safety/winter/montana-snow-june-20140616.
Have a great day!
First off I want to say awesome blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind before
writing. I have had a difficult time clearing my thoughts
in getting my ideas out there. I truly do enjoy writing
however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?
Appreciate it!

Stop “thinking” about the first sentence and just start typing. Save the editing for later.
If it’s cr*p, change it then. Get the idea started.
(Of course I’m assuming you already have a relatively clear idea of what you want to say.)
it snows in finland, granted far to the north (at 65N) but still…

How many real snowballs have ever been tossed on the banks of the lake at Summer Solstice?
That is a couple days out……
Good photo opp for Saturday Doc?
This is the right site for everyone who really
wants to understand this topic. You know so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I personally will need to_HaHa).
You certainly put a new spin on a subject which has been discussed for ages.
Excellent stuff, just excellent!

Michigan’s Apostle Islands. I seen it.
On the 17th, that cloud off to the east of the Keweenaw looks like a guppy fish to me.
Posted yesterday from a USGS research vessel.

I have to believe there is somebody out there taking more pictures of this stuff. I still say snowballs on solstic would be a terrific photo opportunity. Any takers with a boat on the lake?
Question: We have had exceptional and continuous rain patterns for well over a week in southern MN. Rain about 12 to 18 hrs a day, then a short breather and then more of the same.
The week ahead looks like more of the same.
Looking for an answer as to what is causing this pattern.
Changes in the Pacific? Early on there was evidence of ENSO patterns. Is that beginning to happen?
I suspect the moisture is coming all the way from the Gulf of Mexico.
geran–yes, looking at Weatherstreet it does appear that could be the case. In fact much of North American is getting a lot of rain.
This much rain is unusual, and I was wondering about the cause of the pattern, and if it is related to Pacific changes.
Maybe Dr. Roy can help us out when he gets time. I travel a lot from north Texas to Oklahoma. I have seen several weeks of solid, heavy, clouds moving north. I see also that ENSO waters are finally heating back up. All this should mean rain for West Texas, but it is not happening yet. (Houston got dumped on recently, but nary a drop here.)
You’re stealing our water. 🙂
geran– get on to weather Street and hit the US rain patterns for the next few days. Looks like rain in your area.
With any luck, the polar bears who were riding atop Icezilla made it ashore when the iceberg finally beached. Were any camera crews from National Geographic, from the BBC, or from PBS there to record their escape from the berg?
Do you mind if I quote a couple of your articles as long as I provide credit
and sources back to your site? My blog is in the exact same niche as yours and
my users would truly benefit from a lot of the information you present here.
Please let me know if this okay with you. Appreciate it!

El Niño hasn’t happened yet and if it comes late summer or early fall then look for northern US effects next February.
A couple of links:

If it hasn’t happened yet then why all this weather coming out of the southwest like it normally does during an El Niño (in new orleans)? I’m echoing the sentiments of Darryl here… Anybody know what’s going on?
Have a look at this view of winds. As of Friday am, the NO region is getting its weather from the Gulf. Click on the right side of the image and rotate it so more of the Atlantic Ocean shows up. Watch the winds. You can click on the word EARTH and select other items, then click the reset on your browser. The default setting is for wind at 1000 hPA (a little less than normal sea level pressure).

I have had many discussions about measuring energy gain/loss on planet earth with people on this blog. Here is a new study (now with a video abstract) doing a great job of explaining natural variability and climate models. It shows that deep ocean heat content is by far the best way to measure energy gain on a timescale of a decade. It implies that surface temperatures are very unreliable for measuring forcing values on a timescale of a decade. This isn’t really news but its an incredibly informative paper worth reading to completion.
