Deafening silence in most of the mass media about this. Why is that?

Antarctic Sea Ice Extent Sep 25 2014 – 1,362,000 sq km above the 1981-2010 mean. Data for Day 267. Data here.

13th Day Above the 2013 Record. 184th Daily Record.

    It’s on a life spiral.

    Thanks OB.

    If ever there was an Emperor’s New Clothes moment this is it. The absurdity would need to be measured in SkS nuclear bombs – or even better neutron stars!

    So focusing on this one aspect of climate, effectively making the Antarctic a skeptic trigger word (as the Arctic is for alarmists like the Rockerfeller funded blowhard Bill McKibben)…

    The record was utterly smashed.

    Record temperatures are being recorded.

    Poor defenceless climate scientists are getting trapped in ice

    If this trend continues the Antarctic could be a sea free area!

    The Antarctic is screaming!

    This is a death spiral for life!

    Why is there no UN resolution to bomb the sea back into existence?

    What is Al Gore going to do about the sleepy sun?

    Was Mikey Mann right but just forgot to turn the hockeystick upside down?

    When will the Met Office say a single word on this?

    Julia Slingo says that climate models are one of the ‘scientific wonders’ of our age. Where is the public’s Slingo quote? We demand a Slingo quote for this climate disaster?

    Please … I’m crying out for a reason to blame someone in the West for this outrage, to froth at the mouth and then blub some more (but uncontrollably this time) for our eart…only my tears seem to have frozen.

    Seriously when are the Met Office going to say……anything?

    [reply] are they waiting for hell to freeze over first?

    More Ice on the Oceans means less energy in the ocean. The Earth’s air conditioner is cooling down. No need to look for energy being hidden in the deep oceans, there ain’t any!
    It isn’t warming it is freezing cold. The Arctic is not warming and melting. The Antarctic sea is freezing over at a record rate. Overall net of the energy in the oceans is down. pg

  4. ren says:

    All indications are that in October will also record the measurements of ice. This means that less ice will melt in the summer in the south.

    In the Atlantic ice dates back 55 degrees latitude S.

    This is a result of displacement of the polar vortex.

    Introduction amended to ‘most of the mass media’ in view of this.

    ‘Antarctic sea ice is INCREASING: Big freeze breaks records – but scientists claim the rise is caused by global warming’

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2756554/Antarctic-sea-ice-INCREASING-Big-freeze-breaks-records-scientists-claim-rise-caused-global-warming.html

    Of course the official spin is that warming makes Antarctic sea ice go up and Arctic sea ice go down – what else could they say without undermining their own theories?

    Even that unlikely claim is undermined by Arctic sea ice starting to recover some of its long-term losses in the last few years.

    ‘With Ice Growing at Both Poles, Global Warming Theories Implode’

    http://www.thenewamerican.com/tech/environment/item/19121-with-ice-growing-at-both-poles-global-warming-theories-implode

    Report says: ‘no global warming for nearly two decades, record ice levels, and growing public skepticism about the alleged “science” underpinning “climate change” alarmism’

  7. ren says:

    Observing the stratosphere in the north has already seen a shift in the direction of the polar vortex Atlantic. The ice in the Arctic will fastest was incremental between Greenland and Canada.

    I recall that the polar vortex is formed in the zone of the ozone over the polar circle. At these heights exceptionally strong runs Sun.

  8. oldbrew says:

    ‘Actress and environmental activist Emma Thompson, who has recently returned from a trip to the Arctic with Greenpeace, has been talking to the BBC’s Andrew Marr.’

    Try the Antarctic next time dear.

  9. ren says:

    The volume of sea ice in the Arctic is much higher than a year ago.

    Global warming is making the Southern Oceans cool as Bob T showed observations vs. the ‘accurate predictions’ of the best 4 models.

    😂

  11. oldbrew says:

    Once they rely on arguing that natural forces are holding temperatures back, they are stuck with the other side of that coin, namely that the same forces can make temperatures do anything.

    At that point claims that man must be mainly responsible for current conditions go down the drain.

  12. oldbrew says:

    Notrickszone highlights the inconvenient (for some) Antarctic sea ice numbers:

    ‘Antarctic Sea Ice On Turbo-Steroids…Mutates To A Behemoth…Sets Quantam All-Time Record High Extent!’

    Aha – a quantum of sea ice!

    I think he means there’s more ice than before 😉

  13. ren says:

    Let’s see what is the condition of ice and snow on the day of 9/26/14. Are will grow the fastest ice between Canada and Greenland? We’ll see.
