jbg,
I was posting over there as Vergent in the climate change forum. You can find through "this is not good" a topic I started that is the fourth most viewed topic in the forum, so sorting the topics by most viewed will bring it right to the top. If you go to my profile and select the topics I started, you will find some interesting things.
Yes, that's the place, and no bringing it will probably get you banned. It was thoroughly hashed out and the deniers won. I have no desire to post over there since ASIF opened up. They have closed the forum from the search engines, you have to be a member to browse. The CC forum over there is just an excuse to separate AGW from the weather discussions. There is not a single meteorologist over there that has shown serious concern about CAGW. They are not open to any proof. The Met that banned me and I had a disagreement regarding GAC-12 before the fact. I was right. He was embarrassed about that, a non-Met being right about the storm. He had mocked me for not bowing to the wisdom of the meteorologist and thanking them for correcting me in my "errant" post. Then to hes horror, the storm behaved exactly as I has predicted. After banning me he went back and deleted the whole discussion. So I figure that was what it was about. Impiety and lack of respect for his meteorological awesomeness, and being right when he was wrong in his subject of study.
I was posting over there because I had figured out that with an ice free arctic the Earth's weather would be a strongly dominated by a persistent arctic cyclone, and that this in fact was the ice age weather pattern. This causes the trade winds to reverse and get stronger. We get a strongly banded weather like Saturn, only not so many bands.
There is good supporting evidence for this in the form of erosion patterns on volcanoes, the Greenland ice cores, and the pattern of glaciation during the ice age. So, I am posting over there expecting persistent strong summer cyclones. I was hoping to get the Mets to seriously consider the weather consequences of an ice free arctic. Not one of them has been convinced that this will happen in their life time.
I have given up all hope that there will be any preparation for the coming storm. Mankind will get dumped on. Above 60N, as I see it the north and western sides of mountains and ranges is the danger zone. Below 60N, the southern and eastern sides are in danger. If I live near an ice age glacier, I would relocate. Below 40N, it reverses again. but the danger is greatly reduced.
This storm is Earth's backup air conditioner. It may also scrub out CO2 at an accelerating rate. I expect it to blow for a few years(judging by the ice cores). It will restore the albedo in the Northern hemisphere, cooling things off for a while.
What I now envision is not as bad as abrupt sea level rise or an arctic methane emergency. Seriously respected scientists are raising these alarms without getting a serious response from governments. So, I no longer feel compelled to communicate my concerns, It would be pointless. I do not know "when or how bad". All I can say is soon, and not good.
