Arctic sea ice reaches lowest extent on record while Antarctic ice grows

One significant contributing factor to the record was a major Arctic cyclone that struck the North Pole region at the beginning of August. The major storm tore apart more fragile parts of the icepack allowing the smaller pieces to melt.

NASA said, “The storm cut off a large section of sea ice north of the Chukchi Sea and pushed it south to warmer waters that made it melt entirely. It also broke vast extensions of ice into smaller pieces more likely to melt.”

The formerly record Arctic ice minimum in 2007 was due to a confluence of weather and warm water and winds which created a perfect storm of melting. The question is how this at all reflects any trend in climate if one is mature enough to realize that extremes of short-term weather can occur under any conditions, warm, cold, or whatever.

The antarctic sea ice is currently more than 11,000 manhattans above average for this time of year :eek:

It may be expanding due to global warming (or global cooling) but, like Charles says, it's probably just the weather. :-*

According to UAH, since 1980, Arctic temps have increased by 1.01C, while Antarctic ones have fallen by 0.87C.

Hi John,
Yes, but apparently that is only weather and not AGW. Unless of course it is a very hot day then the climatism followers will say it AGw!

Climatism followers are so brainwashed they believe cold causes hot and hot causes cold. You cant make this stuff up!

I just realised that the reason I'm overweight is because Exxon and Caltex kill polar bears and use their babies for slave labour in Indo China. If it wasn't for Big Oil the Earth would be a blissful utopia where the only evil in life would be to not hug a tree once per day. I'm so ashamed that I took their money to be a naughty denialiserer troll. If only I was more in touch with reality like alarmerists. :(
