It was the CO2 that dunnit, I tells ya!!
yeah, what happens is, after the snowfall the concentration of CO2 skyrockets, so the air gets much warmer.
See? Al Gore was right, and his pal Charles (Windsor, or Manson) too!
One could imagine how this effect be involved in moving from 0mm to 30mm of sea level water into snow and ice in Greenland, however as this is science how would we measure if that has actually happened and to what extent and where (on the planet)?
One would think that the movement of 3cm of sea level water should show up somehow and some wheres as that’s a huge volume of water (liquid, vapor, snow, ice) considering the full ocean extent?
Hmmm… how much water is 30mm of sea level drop?
Ah, 10,228 cubic kilometers (1.023×10^16 L (liters)) of water got sucked up somewhere. That’s a big drink. Will you have vodka or rum with that, or just some salt and algae?
Assuming the worlds ocean area and uniform sucking across that area.
Wolfram reports the oceans area as (http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=oceans+area) 3.409×10^8 square kilometers or if you prefer, 131.6 million square miles.
So assuming a flat surface for ease of computation, take that area and multiply it by 30mm.

On a lighter note, the cube root of 10,228 cubic kilometers is 21.71 kilometers on a side (2.5 times the height of Mount Everest and almost the height of Mars Olympus Mons) which would make it a nicely sized very large Borg cube. Just saying. [:)]
On a heavier note that amount of water is approximately 2/1000 of the earths atmospheric mass. Wolfram does interesting comparisons.

“~~ ( 0.002 ~~ 1/503 ) × Earth’s atmosphere mass ( 5.1441×10^18 kg )”
That sounds like a noticeable amount of moisture in the atmosphere if it all went there (even for a time). Now will it all flush back into the seas causing a upward rise again this summer?
