Arctic ice gaining leaps and bounds Antarctic not so much..... At that rate we should be revisiting the 1990s by December? The silence should be deafening.  |

The Arctic Sea Ice Extent seems to have recovered through 2021 The position of the sea ice extent above the minimum has risen from 7th lowest in January 2021 to 16th lowest in January 2022. The sea ice extent compared to the average for the decade from 2010 to 2019 is shown in the last two columns. Last 5 months of 2021 all exceed the average for the decade of 2010's Just updated the January data to include current situation for Jan.10th 2022. Will the trend continue through 2022? It is worth noting that the sea ice extent in January 2012 was 89.111 Sq.Km GREATER than January 2022, yet it still resulted in the lowest ever September minimum | Date | Position | Position | Difference from 2010's avge. | Difference from 2010's avge. |

Sig,
I have decided to update the data through 2022.
It might be more constructive than the Nenanah Ice Classic
Have you a reason for your, brief, but confident reply?

Sig, I have decided to update the data through 2022. It might be more constructive than the Nenanah Ice Classic Have you a reason for your, brief, but confident reply? 1. Solar cycles, the long look. 2. Solar influences the placement of the Polar Vortex. It remains tight. 3. The level of sea ice observed by Capt Larsen in his log book. Reconstructions do not match his observations. 4. The ice increase, until the recent decrease. I had read a paper years ago about long term Arctic ice cycles. Went back through the MWP based on whale bones. Whales have to have open water to breath. Was a convincing paper. |

I just looked at Climate4you a few days ago and was going to reference it to this thread. I also believe the AMO is going south and is indicative if not causal with regard to the northern ice state. We shall see. |

Hi blust,
Nice to know somebody is also watching AMO
The trouble is there is no sign of AMO starting to fall
Last three months all in excess of 0.4
When will it drop below zero?

The position of the sea ice extent above the minimum has risen from 7th lowest in January 2021 to 15th lowest in January 2022 (so far). The sea ice extent compared to the average for the decade from 2010 to 2019 is shown in the last two columns. Just updated the January data to include current situation for Jan.25th 2022. The sea ice extent has exceed the 2010's average for the sixth successive month. Will this trend continue through 2022? | Date | Position | Position | Difference from 2010's Avge | Diference from 2010's Avge |

2012 was a freak year, with an Arctic 'cyclone' the cause of the low ice, IIRC? |
