One site I regularly visit is that of Alastair McDonald. He has a page
(based on a NOAA site) that allows a comparison between now and four/eight
years ago, though other dates may be entered. This summer is showing a
very marked decline since four years ago, with virtually no ice on the
coasts of Siberia.

Here is the page:

Interesting site - I'll add that to my favourites. The
decline is quite marked but there seems little difference in the
maxima (Feb/Mar). This would seem to indicate that the ice is
shallower.
