Not that interesting of a year, unlike 2012. Wouldn't expect it to make much news.
And what did they blame 2012 on? That's what we're talking about, not the "interesting" aspect of it. And that's why more ice or record ice or normal ice wont make the news... doesn't fit "it"
Two weeks ago it was reported that the worst mid-summer ice conditions in 20 years was preventing the routine delivery of supplies by ship in eastern Hudson Bay, and a Canadian ice breaker had to be called in to help.
"We haven't seen these ice conditions in the eastern part of Hudson Bay this late in the season in, I'd say, two decades," Leclair said.
"There is a large patch of ice that has not melted and is creating problems for shipping."
Here's July 17th I believe in north or East Hudson Bay?
