I Ghiacciai della Groenlandia si sciolgono a velocità record, a causa delle temperature molto alte, più alte rispetto alla media di quel luogo.
Nella sola giornata di venerdì si sono sciolte all'incirca due miliardi di tonnellate di ghiaccio sul 40% del territorio.
In genere lo scioglimento dei ghiacci in Groenlandia è un fenomeno normale nella stagione estiva, dove i picchi si raggiungono tra giugno e agosto, ma quest'anno lo scioglimento è iniziato ad aprile.
Sarà un'ennesimo segno dei cambiamenti climatici? sta di fatto che è allarme in tutto il mondo.
E' GIA' SUCCESSO IN PASSATO?
Questo evento non è unico, infatti, già in passato si sono avuti dei fenomeni simili, come quello del 2007 e del 2010, in cui la Groenlandia perse la maggior quantità di ghiaccio.
IL GRIDO DI AIUTO
La gente infuriata, Greta Thunberg compresa, propongono da mesi tante idee, come quella di azzerare tutte le emissioni di combustibili nell'aria, sfruttando al massimo le tante energie rinnovabili che possediamo.
In basso potete osservare il grafico, fornito dalla University of Georgia, che descrive l'andamento dello scioglimento dei ghiacciai.
@Pr11s I'm sorry, You're right. Denmark didn't have data. I mistook the area.
Now I can see first denmark data - 20:40 UTC (22:40 Denmark). Problem was unstable source of radar data at Denmark. I'll watch it.
@KeithPrice Windy is free, and only voluntary donations from the user are possible. Did you set up a voluntary donation?
If not, did you maybe download a different app (with a blue logo) which is paid?
ivo, there's still a bug affecting Win10 + Firefox 66.0.5 (most recent version).
I can now make a full video within Firefox but when I press "Publish Save" it allows me to save the video locally, and keeps playing the displayed video on the save screen, but it otherwise locks the browser and I can not open any other webpage anywhere on the internet.
I have to close the browser to get control back, but then the publishing has not taken place (though I do have the video saved locally). The final video works fine but Windy is not giving me my browser back because it can't finalize the publishing process and let go the browser again.

Don’t extend the detail forecast, you will not need to disable it.
We know that local detail forecasts beyond 6 days are not reliable. The 10 days forecasts are only useful at large scale, which is the scale of layers on the map. People who look to 10 days detail forecast are generally very disappointed. Increasing the length of detail forecasts is giving a false feeling of skill and precision. At least @ivo should consider to add a confidence index which is based on the ensemble model spread forecast.
Thanks for creating, maintaining and constantly updating this great app! Love it for flying everyday.
A turbulence forecast/Mountain wave would be fantastic.
Wonderful but...
Too complex for me, frankly - I’m a windsurfer and a walker.
I really miss not being able to see wind speed trends over time. Please consider reinstating this feature. Many thanks for your consideration and for such a lyrically beautiful and functional software creation.
Dear All, Dear @Marienka
may I ask the algorithm behind this new overlay? I'd like to use the same algorithm to calculate the type of precipitation in my country. I'm running WRF model for my research activities at the Iskenderun Technical University. Thank you very much for your response in advance.
Happy new year to all.
@kekert, +1 from another paraglider pilot for suggestions of @krchnavy. Thermals/Lift is the crucial information for all soaring pilots. This info also could be shown on maps like for example in www.xcskies.com. If you could implement this kind of functionality in the Windy, hands down, it would be the best meteo website.
I love the pressure Isolines, but why do they need to be loaded manually (i.e. clicked on) on the Radar page using the ",i:pressure" URL parameter???
i.e: https://www.windy.com/-Radar-lightning-radar?radar,40.761,-73.993,7,i:pressure
should show them....
Thanks,
Arie
