The North Pole Is Now in a Death SpiralKEVIN DRUMNOV. 17, 2016 9:50 PM
Speaking of broken things, apparently we've broken the North Pole:
Something is totally off. The Arctic is super-hot, even as a vast area of cold polar air has been displaced over Siberia...Its about 20C [36 degrees Fahrenheit] warmer than normal over most of the Arctic Ocean, along with cold anomalies of about the same magnitude over north-central Asia, Jennifer Francis, an Arctic specialist at Rutgers University, said by email Wednesday.

Maybe we really are in the "End Times". Every day I hear something that makes me think that things can't possibly get any worse, and then they do.
