“Furthermore, warmer temperatures and high winds in coming weeks are likely to create pack ice ”
Warmer temps causing pack ice! By July they’ll just be using icebreakers to get anywhere.

lol, kinda a warmcold in reverse!
We all need to get the word out to the drowning polar bears that the Baltic is the place to be.
Doesn’t seem to fit in with catastrophic global warming.
Today it was on the news for the first time in Germany.
Over 2/3 of the Baltic is frozen solid with some very thick patches where even the ice breakers take a left or right turn to avoid the thick ice. They currently have 17 ships stuck in the ice and it will take several day’s for the ice breakers to get them out.
When they have high winds the ice could ‘crawl over a ship’ and sink it within an hour.
Ships got stuck in the Baltic Sea last year too around the 5th March 2010. The worst freeze up since 1996.

But what’s this?
Climate Change inthe Baltic Sea area – Draft HELCOM Thematic Assessment in 2006
“During the past ten years, all ice winters have been average, mild, or extremely mild…..Nonetheless, the projections for future climate change in the Baltic Sea basin, with all of their caveats and uncertainties, indicate that atmospheric temperatures will continue to warm during the course of the 21st century in every sub-region of the Baltic Sea basin.”
There was this documentary about the Baltic ice breakers on the Discovery Channel.
The kind of documentary where they put the captain of an ice breaker on front of a camera wining about climate change causing the ice to disappear making his ship and his profession obsolete. Right the profession of an ice breaker captain is dying.
We won’t need them anymore in the near future.
Just like snow ploughs in London.
Idiots.
