You gotta love it when the Earth gives back the love, especially today.

Those who have been following NSIDC and JAXA sea ice plots have noted that this has been an
extraordinary year so far, with Arctic sea ice hitting the "normal" line on some datasets. Today
the Earth gave back more for us.

[graph: sea ice extent]

As of today, JAXA shows that we have more ice than any time on this date for the past 9 years of
Aqua satellite measurement for this AMSRE dataset. Yes, it isn't much, but if this were September,
and the sea ice minimum was down by this much compared to all other years, you can bet your sweet
bippy we'd see it screamed in news headlines worldwide.

Of course some will argue that it "doesn't matter" in the context of trend, or that it's just a
"weather" blip. Let us remind our friends of such blips the next time a heat wave or a storm is
cited as proof of global warming.

What can be said about the short term trend in Arctic sea ice is that for the past two years, it
has recovered from the historic low of 2007. It recovered in 2008, and more in 2009. If today's
Earth Day gift is any indication, it appears that it is on track now for a third year of recovery
in 2010 as we've been saying at WUWT since fall of 2009.

Nope, just more ice area. The ice is almost all one-year ice now.

So you are saying the Arctic ocean almost completely melted lasted
summer? Nice try.

Well, another fossil fool has cherry picked a too short
interval again. It takes 30 or more of data to establish
a climate trend. Does Eric have a sub 100 IQ, or does
he believe that he can convince people with low IQs by
telling such obvious lies?

Can't you see another trend is forming Roger? Nine years worth so far.
Now. About your room temperature IQ......

Will the live satellite graph help?
