Even the most blithering idiots should be able to see that I am right about the atmosphere's fluid dynamics by now but it isn't so. So...

I can only imagine that you morons are in the pay of the IPCC.

I refuse to accept that you have the brains of dead sheep. There has to be another reason besides the fact I am a nasty piece of ****. Even a nasty piece of **** has to be accepted as your better, if god tells him things. Or maybe it is Satan. Why would Satan keep you lie bound?

Oh wait, why would god make it impossible for people like you to see the ****ing obvious when it is pointed out to them repeatedly?

Maybe he thinks one of us is disrespectful?
I wonder who it could be.

I hope it isn't me.

I may have posted this before - if so apologies - but this JAXA-based volume
plot does seem to be updated daily, as an alternative to the PIOMAS monthly
updates:

https://forum.arctic-sea-ice.net/ind...=4127 1;image

I don't know where the original is posted (if anywhere?) so there's only a
new plot visible as and when it's copied into the arctic forum. But this
also confirms that the arctic sea ice volume is at a pretty low ebb.

And interesting to see the last few (current) comments in the thread:

https://forum.arctic-sea-ice.net/ind...1611.2450.html

Looks like some _relatively_ warm conditions forecast for at least part of
the Arctic in the coming days. (Presumably the cold will be elsewhere.)

For a more balanced global view, the S pole
http://quantarctica.npolar.no
might be useful but I wont have an internet connection that can handle
that site, until next week.
If anyone on this thread could report back in the meantime , if any use?

I don't have any recent uptick representaion, of recent increasing
global sea-ice extent
I get, in millions of sq km, inexorable depletion of sea-ice
16 Jan 2017, 16.692
17 Jan, 16.593
18 Jan, 16.507
19 Jan, 16.455
20 Jan, 16.444
(would someone else check my figures?)

Anyone know which version is corrct?
I suspect Wipneus is using a different data feed than the Charctic one,
area rather than extent perhaps, JAXA ?

No need to change the luck-would-have-it title, global sea-ice went up
by 1000 sq km for the 21 Jan reading of 16.445
Summarising so far.
Just because experts do not know of a connection between the poles that
could make the global amount of sea-ice so constant for 35 years, does
not mean there is no connection.
Even if it is climate change (insufficient amount of it until last
year), that is now so intrusive that it affects both poles whether in
their summer or winter.

There is a phenomena, known to experts as the polar see-saw, that would explain the "constant" sea ice over the last 35 years:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_see-saw
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science...77379115000554
As the Arctic sea ice decreased the Antarctic sea ice increased. Of course that does not explain why the see-saw has now broken down with both the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice decreasing.

I don't suppose either of the main contributors to this escargo chasseur panzerfraus have consulted the Arctic weather charts, have they?
I haven't been following along, I just presumed the reason would be sea surface currents rather than anticyclone activity.

I dare say they don't want to know how global cooling could be removing the ice, nor how. It would be interesting to find that the present earthquake activity is the cause of it all.

I only hope they are not taking turns sticking their heads in Dawlish. Dirty buggers!
