Researchers at Newcastle University looked at temperature trends in the western Himalaya over the past century. They found warmer winters and cooler summers, combined with more snow and rainfall, could be causing some mountain glaciers to increase in size.

Good to see the Toon making a contribution. It's not surprising that some glaciers would wax as a result of increased temps. One would think that GW would make for a warmer, wetter earth. These glaciers are at pretty high altitude too. The real question is which glaciers will wax and which will wane.
