Electric-blue clouds appear over Antarctica, Earlier Than Normal
Scientists watch Noctilucent clouds (earth's highest) that return to Antarctica Nov. - Feb. The clouds are over the Arctic during the northern hemisphere summer. Because the clouds returned early, they think it may be a sign of climate change. When I was in Antarctica in February 2012, I saw only thick, white cloud cover. http://bit.ly/198DigL
