Don't have that link but I just use this one for the whole Arctic including the Baltic - where there appears to be precious little ice yet. http://iup.physik.uni-bremen.de:8084...SRE_visual.png -- Graham P Davis, Bracknell, Berks., UK.

I just did a google search and I think this was the one... http://portal.fma.fi/sivu/www/baltice/ice-thickness No much ice at all, now that just shows what the difference is between now and a couple of decades ago when 50% of the baltic would be frozen!

news  What was the link that showed how much of the Baltic Sea was frozen? It moved last week: http://www.itameriportaali.fi/en/ita...GB/jaatilanne/ Ice cover isn't far off normal at the moment. |

Global warming for you. -- Keith (Southend)http://www.southendweather.net e-mail: kreh at southendweather dot net Keith, Extreme cold in winter occurred as recently as 2002/2003 in Finland. Many palces in the north of Finland broke records in December and January with temperatures dropping below -40C. I have one of those Baltic ice charts for 16 Dec 2002 that shows over half of the Gulf of Bothnia covered in ice. Global warming does some funny things. Len Wembury |

Global warming for you. Don't forget that we are still quite early in the winter season. I would guess that in an average year the maximum ice extent in the Baltic wouldn't be reached until late February. -- John Hall "Acting is merely the art of keeping a large group of people from coughing."

ms2...What was the link that showed how much of the Baltic Sea was frozen? It moved last week: http://www.itameriportaali.fi/en/ita...GB/jaatilanne/ Ice cover isn't far off normal at the moment. It doesn't seem to say what range of years the "normal" cover is averaged over. Whether it's, say, the last ten years or the last forty years could make an enormous difference. -- John Hall "Acting is merely the art of keeping a large group of people from coughing."

That would have been a relatively cold period compared with today for the Baltic region, I imagine, so if the ice cover now is similar to the normal for that period then it's doing quite "well". -- John Hall "Acting is merely the art of keeping a large group of people from coughing."
