AMOC

SST 6 June 2026

Climate change – It’s decidedly non-linear. There will be surprises.

Two oceanic systems have been in the news recently – el Nino and AMOC. One oscillates on an approximate 2 to 7 year cycle, the other is far more stately but appears to be slowing due to climate change. Both affect our weather. Short term we are in for a warmer than usual summer in Canada with stormy weather in the west. Longer term the weather could be far more dire. We need to pay attention.
