NASA is obsessed with three or four of hours when temperatures got barely above freezing.
Someone parked their golf cart on the green again.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

I don’t see the water hazard. Is it behind the palm trees?
It is one big water hazard. The water just happens to be solid.
No, the melted water on summit refreezes.
The hazard was more dwon the hill.
Produce a picture of any melted water at summit
Greenland gets 400 billion cubic metres of snow per year, and alarmists expect it all to just accumulate until it reaches the top of the stratosphere.
You might want to look up ‘steady state equilibrium”
Here you go. The clear line ~2cm from the top is melted, refrozen water. At Summit, the previous melt layer dates to 1889. The average over the last 10,000 years has been one melt layer per 150 years, although there is a significant cluster around the HOlocent climate optimum, meaning that the recent rate has been around one melt layer per 250 years.

That bridge over the Watson river was very poorly designed. They basically built a dam out of moraine into which they put two small spans of bridge, the outlets being much smaller in area than the former river bed. What a surprise when the river backs up behind the moraine dam and eventually over-tops it. Moraine is not really good dam building material. They should have used a bridge with numerous piers from bank to bank that don’t significantly block the river channel.
Further to my last – see picture number 4 here:

Here’s the big picture of the Watson River bridge:

Look at the size of the outwash plain downstream of the bridge in the bottom right hand corner. It was accident begging to happen!
Reblogged this on SERMERSUAQ.
My goodness, it gets above freezing for 2 hours and 10,000 feet of ice are all gone!
