The press says Antarctica is rapidly losing ice, which is causing severe storms
Antarctic sea ice extent is higher than 1979, 1982, 1989, 1996, 2000, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023. It has increased 18% since 2016.

Antarctic sea ice extent has been higher than last year on all but 31 days, by an average of 502,811 km² – which is more than the area of California.
climate may come and weather will go but entropy is forever.
we are arrogant but helpless as ol’ man Sol just keeps rollin’ along
What is the mechanism? Explain the meteorological physics.
‘Rapid Antarctic sea ice loss is causing severe storms around the world.’
Okay. How? Name some storms. Link them to Antarctic waters.
