Hi
I've just been having a look at the Arctic SYNOP reports for 1200 UTC today and thought that they looked rather cold for this time of year – even up there. Have a look on my blog at the two climate charts for Cape Morris Jessup (04301) at the top of Greenland at around 83° N, one from last year and the other for this year.
Other sites like Eureka (71917) at around 79°N are also sub-zero in stark contrast to last year. It’s probably late summer 2012 was so warm in the Arctic last year although I do think Winter has returned a little early to these parts. I do have some scattered pieces of temperature climatology for Cape Morris Jessup from the CRUTEM4 data set to compare with.
I haven’t heard much mention about the thinning and disappearance of the sea ice recently and unfortunately don’t have the time to check and see if this isn't the record year at lot of people were expecting.
Bruce.
