Slight warming tendency
The newspaper mentioned that for the first time in close to four decades, no ice has formed in the Gulf waters north of the Island. At first glance, it’s a “fluke of nature”. I mean, how can we have a cold winter without a warm one in comparison. But the next part really caught my attention. If there is a windy spell that lasts more than a few days, the lobster are expected to come ashore. That would be anomalous. Beyond the possibility for harvesting (after all, it shouldn’t qualify as illegal fishing) one must consider that maybe this whole global warming is starting to affect MY GLOBE.
