The really interesting thing about 2007 was the loss of ice after September. Large amounts of thick ice blew out into the North Atlantic after the extent minimum occurred.

There was a rebound in 2008 as well, so even though it lost that extra ice it managed to put ice extent on. Same for 2009, more ice gain back to the normalised downward trend.
I wonder if this year will see a rebound for a couple of years back up above 4 million? Or is the tipping point reached and there is no come back?
I’m going to guess, and don’t call me R.Bates jnr, that 4 million might be a distant memory soon.
Let’s all wave goodbye to it now.

The storm which brought warm water to the surface and melted the ice, also removed a lot of heat from the Arctic.
Actually, there was a net energy gain to the Arctic from the storm as atmospheric energy was brought in from lower latitudes. That’s what powers these Arctic cyclones.
And dissipated into space, the way that heat engine always works. The oceans lost energy, but I understand that science is not your strong point.
And it would seem that reality is not your strong point.
Maslowski said that 2013 ice-free was conservative. Perhaps we are ice free now?
Could be a “rebound” of sorts in 2013 or not. We are in uncharted territory now as the Arctic sea ice is well outside anything that has been modeled. Still, an ice-free sumer Arctic by 2020 seems more likely than not now.
The ice will be growing rapidly in a few weeks, and you will have to find something else to be hysterical about.
Funny how alarmists feel no shame over their alarm.
Couldn’t get much more hysterical than this blog if you tried. It’s way beyond parody! I wonder whether the author of this blog writes it from his teenage bedroom or from the safety of a high-security psychiatric institution. Delusional, or what?
It is always nice to hear from the sheep.

It’s ok that you don’t understand. There’s others showing how dumb they are too. You are not alone in this world.
Obviously, hysteria is fascinating. They complain about it but they keep coming back!
Must be boring over at Neven’s blog.
Willingness of alarmists to claim victory from a rare cold event (Arctic blizzard which broke up the ice) is delusional and hypocritical.
They don’t know what they’re doing. One could expect this reaction from them about the storm in the Arctic.
