I'll tell you all about it when I see you again.

0.01% science, mostly CGI
99.9% biblical doom prophecy

Yeah, I'm just shitposting looking for someone who actually knows the real answer. In the movie they did a good job of making the weather science sound plausible.

Highly inaccurate. Here's a good (IMO), quick overview I came across:

I thought the ocean salinity has been drastically increasing as of late because rising water levels wash and erode more salt away and thus since water freezes at a lower temperature when salt is added the melting of the ice caps is propagated, making the water rise thus making the water more and more salty.

Holy crap I was reassured by your post but then I read the link, this is totally out of date and there is a more recent study which updates these on the basis that the instrumentation and evaluation of data is more precise. I don't have a link but it's out there. Shit we are all still doomed, and I'm still waiting for someone to answer OP, is the science plausible?

0% There no peer-reviewed scientific papers in the movie. That doesn't mean their "prediction" is 100% false. There's just no real science in the movie.
