30 years of data is virtually useless in the history of the planet, you know that right?
Goddard glaciologist Lora Koenig said that similar melting events occur about every 150 years, and this event is consistent with that schedule, citing the previous 1889 melt. But, she added, "if we continue to observe melting events like this in upcoming years, it will be worrisome." It WILL be worrisome indeed, IF... People in the mountains here say global warming was responsible for this years weak snowpack, quickly forgetting that the previous year broke every record in the history (recorded data very short period in the great scheme of things) of the area. Climate is cyclical, perhaps.
