Default Earliest arctic north pole snow since web cam records began


Hi Lawrence

I suspect a web cam record for 2001 would have been somewhat difficult to
achieve - I seem to remember credible reports from cruise ship passengers of
open water at the Pole that summer. Anyone else recall this or have I got
the year wrong?

I guess it just goes to show how variable these Arctic summers can be and
how small changes in temperature can have apparently large effects.

Thanks for the link anyway - most interesting!
