Sea level rise pushes air up, so ceterus parabus I'd guess that they're the closest that they've ever been to sea level in recorded history.

The simple explanation is given in 1st year chem:
PV = nRT
T goes up, and more evaporation makes n go up
n and T go up, product of P and V goes up
V can only go up by expanding the atmosphere away from the surface which requires P to go up
therefore P goes up
bonus question: deltaP drives weather and everything gets worse

this is some weak rear end poo poo, I loving walked to elementary school in Winnipeg when it was loving -20C, only time we got snow day was when the drifting snow was 12 feet high and snowed everyone literally in their homes. My dad threw my 9 year old rear end out the kitchen window to help dig the front door clear.

LOL i've been work from home for 11 months now, if I can play videogames I can log into work so snowstorms or no snowstorms I'm still logging on. Also I live in the northeast and while I got like 9 inches of snow overnight we're prepared for it so we're not dying without power etc.

All of us youngsters must be so happy about getting all of these one in a lifetime weather events out of the way so quickly, the rest of the century's forecast is looking so delightfully placid.

if it's anything like hurricanes and flooding, we'll be finding ourselves in situations where we're hearing about a 1 in 500 year event happening in 4 of the last 5 years
