Arctic sea ice sets wintertime record low thanks to global warming
Total BS. Arctic sea ice is normal everywhere except the Barents Sea.
The “hot” weather Serreze is talking about was -20C.

There is nothing in the least alarming going on.

Here is the same story from 1922. Winter temperatures were up 15 degrees, glaciers disappearing, and no ice on the north shore of Svalbard. This year there is ice on the north shore of Svalbard. The winter of 2015-2016 was apparently not as warm as the winter of 1922.
According to NASA, 1922 was one of the coldest years ever.
And perhaps most disgusting of all is the lie that ice records began in 1979. The 1990 IPCC report had satellite ice records back to the early 1970’s – when ice extent was low. NSIDC just doesn’t want you to know about it.
There is nothing going on in the Arctic. It is all just propaganda from the usual cast of government grant funded clowns. Serreze also predicted the North Pole would be ice-free in 2008.
Arctic Ice Extent Discrepancy: NSIDC versus Cryosphere Today
Could all Arctic ice be gone by 2012?
The Arctic is screaming said Mark Serreze
December 2007.
Wasn’t long ago that the winter extent was supposedly meaningless and not indicative of global warming, while the summer minimum was everything. That canary is quite the wanderer.
Climatology demands mystical insights that cannot be acquired by cold reasoning. The truth will be revealed only to believers of pure heart.
And canaries are non-migratory. Just like African swallows.
I think that is still the case to be honest. It would be more relevant if the ice extent was not bounded in winter on so many sides by land. So you have extent mainly in the Pacific and Atlantic so if one of those is warmer or colder then guess what…. tends to skew it. Best still sticking to summer for interesting results. Either way.
I think NSIDC called the maximum too early also, 24th the called it, not convinced it will be later. So no records yet for me until we know.

According to Catastrophists, 2 million square km of sea ice is worth replacing democracy for a global communist cabal. It has worked out so well in Europe people are dying to go there.
The heat was relentless

Where did you get the picture?

I wonder where she got it.
Looks like she took a year off to travel the world. Must be nice.
Wow! Looks like surf’s up! I can see the breakers foaming…
Once again, my deepest apologies to the Beach Boys…
“Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay”
You know Alaska has an ocean
as warm as Biscayne Bay
Now the Eskimos are surfin’
Even on New Year’s day
You see ‘em dress so scantily
on skis and not snow shoes
They’re slaloming around Shamu
Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay
You’d catch ‘em surfin’ at Homer (High tide, worldwide, Prudhoe Bay)
And down at Ketchikan (High tide, worldwide, Prudhoe Bay)
Junea and Sitka (High tide, worldwide, Prudhoe Bay)
Nome and Unakleet (High tide, worldwide, Prudhoe Bay)
All over Kaktovik
And down at Koyuk way
Eskimos gone surfin’
Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay
Because the white man pollutes
Have no seals to harpoon
They’re waxing down their surfboards
Thank an oil tycoon
No more seasons only summer
We’re on surfari to stay
Tell the media we’re surfin’
Surfin’ Prudhoe bay
Polar bear bikinis
Custom whale bone shades
Kuiu Island and Junea
Seward and Bushkin Beach
All over Alaska
All the warmists say
Eskimos gone surfin’
Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay
Eskimos gone surfin’
Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay
Eskimos gone surfin’
Surfin’ Prudhoe Bay
LOL! Best laugh I have had today! Thanks, gator!
(By the way gator — did you write that? Has anyone told you you have a wicked sense of humor?)
did you write that?
I am completely to blame.
LOL. Gold star. 🙂
I’m tweeting that!! With attribution to Gator of course.
Where’s the beach?
I think the beach is just past the second pressure ridge.

Also it depends on which data set you use. Ron Clutz uses the MASIE data, and it is not as low as last year.
https://rclutz.wordpress.com/2016/03/25/arctic-upset-alert-march-25/
Considering we had a pretty decent El Nino, it should be lower than last year, if you use simple logic. But nothing about the arctic or weather in general is simple. One interesting thing is that the ice-extent has delayed its usual decent a week, and therefore is now at the ten-year-average, not at “record low levels.”
Mark Serreze has got to make a big deal and generate hype, for he is famous for promoting the term, “Death Spiral.” He is looking more and more foolish with each passing year. Any layman, simply by watching what goes on up there, can see there is no “Death Spiral” happening.

It is the water that is melting the ice-not air!
And it will change to cold in a few years.
http://www.woodfortrees.org/plot/esrl-amo
Melting started 1979-or was it metering?
And by the way, the fuss the above article made about temperatures being “as much as fifteen degrees above normal” is hype about a normal event. When the atmosphere moves from a zonal to a meridienal pattern there are often surges of milder air (usually well below freezing) up to the Pole. It loses a lot of heat to outer space in a hurry. If an El Nino is the faucett adding heat, the Pole is the drain. If you desire a warmer world, you actually should desire a zonal pattern where the cold stays up at the Pole, for not only does that make for warmer winters to the south, the cold air can lose less of the planets heat than warm air.
Just after Christmas last winter there was a surge of Atlantic air up to the Pole that had temperatures touch the freezing point for a few hours. There was a lot of hoopla at the time, but I have been watching the Pole carefully only for a decade, and I’ve seen it before. The thing few bother to mention is that the surges of mild air vanish from the temperature maps very swiftly. The Atlantic air-masses seem to cool by around five to ten degrees a day, in the perpetual dark of winter, until temperatures get down to around minus thirty of forty, at which point the “warm” water under the sea-ice has the effect of keeping temperatures from dropping much more.
A meridional flow seems to be the planet’s way of getting rid of heat. It actually may be more of a sign of cooling than of warming.
One of those surges of warm air up to the pole helped to create record snowfalls from the DC area up to NYC in January. Also unprecedented snow in Kuwait, Vietnam and Taiwan. Hardly a sign of catastrophic warming. Things have a way of balancing out in the atmosphere.
It would be interesting to see a sea ice record starting in 1922 rather than 1979, after 40 years of global cooling. I bet it would not look that scary at all.
I think it is the Danes who have kept fairly good maps of the edge of the sea-ice in the North Atlantic, due to their interests in Greenland and their fishermen. The maps can’t see past the edge, of course, and are not that good north of Canada and in Bering Strait, but they go all the way back to around 1900, and show that we have seen less ice before, when the AMO was warm.
The fact these old maps have been studiously ignored by people such as Mark Serreze simply makes it all the more obvious they have a political agenda. Indeed there is nothing scary going on, unless it is their behavior.
Reblogged this on TheFlippinTruth.
Fraud will continue in goverment agencies as long as public anger is focused on the agencies (EPA, NOAA, NASA, etc.) or puppet scientists (Michael Mann, etc.) instead of the role played by NAS (the National Academy of Sciences) in reviewing budgets of government agencies for Congress and directing funds of diverse government agencies to support the same fraudulent US policies.
Public anger this election year at the unholy alliance of crooked politicians with
leaders of lock-step (aka “consensus”) science may have convinced the editor of Nature to permit review of a paper that contradicts STANDARD CLIMATE, COSMOLOGY, NUCLEAR & SOLAR MODELS with PRECISE MEASUREMENTS & EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATIONS.
If Nature actually publishes “Solar energy” [Nature’s tracking number NCLIM16030433],

The Star News, that’s my old hometown newspaper 🙂
Saw this posted on the other guy’s site. Records for sea ice begin in 1979. That fact alone reveals the new news for what it is, egregious propaganda.
-20º C and the heat was relentless. Telling porkies at break-neck speed.

Why are the GW fanatics always so hung up on the Arctic ice? They have been forecasting its imminent demise for decades now, and even though it never diminishes, they keep on warning us its about to totally melt and flood all islands and coastal cities. It does make good scare press for the compliant media, but you’d think at some point it would become embarrassing.
+1. Short memories maybe?
Well “truthfully”, what “supposedly” shows up as ice in the Arctic Sea is “actually” extremely “large” Elmers Glue deposits !
Once “CO2” rates “exceeded” 350 parts per million (Actually it is now at the “extremely” dangerous level of “350 1/2” parts per million causing the Earth to spin out of its orbit “greatly” increasing the possibility of a Earth-Moon collision, forecast to happen by “Summer” 2019) the Earth itself began to spill forth “Elmers” Glue !
Now once Spring begins to “heat” up the Elmers “Glue”, the “Glue” will harden to such an extent that “Arctic” Ice fishing will no longer be possible, and additionally it will mean the end to the “massive” Arctic “Cruz” Ship Industry laying off “millions” of “Eskimos” who depend on this for a living !!!
If “everyone” would “simply” forsake their “Automobiles”, which really is a “simple” thing to do, all of the “Elmers Glue would “retreat” back to its proper place keeping the Planet (That’s “our” Planet, Planet Earth that is!) together, as in, [Glueing-it-Altogether]
Therefore Arctic “Ice” fishing would resume to its proper function, feeding the all the Whales and “Zebras” which until recently lived only on land, but because of Global “Farming” have been driven into the sea, via the Mediterranean Sea !
So now, Global Warming, which is now called Global Climate Change has been “elevated” (Mutated might be a better word for it?) to Global-Climate-Earth-Warming-Farming Statistical Syndrome Paradox, or better known as (GCEWFSSP) !
