Over the last three weeks, Arctic ice area has declined by 662,000 km², which is 60% of normal and the slowest on record.
This has been caused by the coldest Arctic summer on record.

Unprecedented. Just as the models predicted (sarc).
—-and temp drop MAY be the result of a PDO phase shift to negative which is cooler and also as a result of the shift a change in wind direction. In the past, strong winds simply blew the ice to areas which were warmer and thus increased the melt, (more melt anomaly in the summer than in the winter) It would be excellent if the poles sea ice melt both went in the opposite direction. Then there would be even more creative explanations. .
MY bad that should be a PDO shift to positive–
which leaves me wondering why the extent chart is still trending lower at the typical pace……
Cyclone has been pushing the ice edge north in the East Siberian Sea, causing extent to decline
So the headline should be –
Due to Global Warming the future is colder!
GISS confirms below average Arctic temperatures in July:

Give them time. Or, perhaps Gavin, et. al all know the jig is up?
