brenthutch 444 #1 Posted October 3, 2023 “On September 19, sea ice reached its annual minimum extent of 4.23 million square kilometers (1.63 million square miles). As the sun continues to lower on the horizon, air temperatures will drop further, expanding ice extent through autumn and winter.” What ever happened to our promised summer time “ice fee Arctic”? And to think Olof thought I stopped citing NOAA. He will be unable to resist responding Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the lowest sea ice maximum in the 1979 to 2023 sea ice record by a wide margin." https://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Arctic is in the north the Antarctic is in the south, thus ends your geography lesson for the day. Edited October 3, 2023 by brenthutch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
