I set up a loop by opening tabs on this link for the charts of 11th to

It shows a series? of Low pressure areas sweeping into the Arctic. I
fear that the Arctic ice cover will be missing next winter too. But I
know little of the predominant weather patterns there to be making much
more than a suggestion.

For these Lows are not that unusual however they do provide warm
weather by Arctic standards.


In July and August, only one or two cyclones move to the arctic seas
from the northern Atlantic. On the other hand, more cyclones move
towards the pole from the midlatitudes of Siberia and Canada. The
number of cyclones in the Chukchi Sea in July can be as high as six,
and in the East Siberian Sea up to four or five.

I must get to work and see how many Lows this year have intruded into
the barren north. But I only have a link for the Northern Altlantic
route. Still it is something. One can do a lot more with a lot less.
