Extreme heat from the troposphere is reaching into the high stratosphere. Humans will not see the other side of what we have done to the planet:
Troposphere – “the lowest region of the atmosphere, extending from the earth's surface to a height of about 3.7–6.2 miles (6–10 km), which is the lower boundary of the stratosphere.”
“high stratosphere today. We have temps above freezing at 10hpa!! :-0
for context, normally temps at this altitude are between minus 50, minus 80 Centigrade. And a very strong dipole...”
