10-Day Temperature Outlook

Most of the remaining vulnerable ice (south of 80N) is in the Beaufort Sea, so it is unlikely there will be much loss in extent over the next few weeks.

This was the extent at last year’s minimum.

The green in the image below shows all the ice that would have to melt to reach last year’s minimum.
