So we enter peak insolation still on the 'Perfect Melt Storm' trajectory and the current sweep of forecasts puts a big fat high over the pole by June with the thin ice taking a pounding and the thicker ice still on its one way trip to the Atlantic.
If I come back in July and we are still on this path I'll be calling the potential for the year to challenge 2012's cluster of records?
If things appear even worse then we will be looking at a chance for the blue ocean event esp. if Yamal goes pop and heats the atmosphere above the arctic for summer's end?

Let's see what happens, GW, and I look forward to your interpretation of events whichever way the ice goes.

As always, exciting times ahead. Trade route changes will result in a decline of ship emissions of deadly CO2. Something to be proud of!

"Icebergs moving in swift and steady, say tour operators
After six months of winter, you might think people in Newfoundland and Labrador would be tired of seeing ice. You'd be wrong — at least, as far as icebergs are concerned. The Iceberg Finder website lists 124 bergs spotted around the province's coastline, and tour operator Andrew McCarthy, with McCarthy's Party, says the photogenic giants are already a hit this season. "I wouldn't describe it as 'hunting' this year," McCarthy said. "There's just so many icebergs, you can just look out anywhere. They're unreal.… We were in Bay de Verde on Sunday and one of the guides counted 19 monstrous bergs on the horizon.""www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/iceberg-season-tours-1.5125771?__vfz=medium%3DsharebarOne could almost think that we are witnessing the back end of a Bond or D-O event

You can tell how little concern there is about the Arctic all of a sudden when the thread drops almost off the front page. No ships of fools this year? Or nobody thinking that they need publicity.

Despite the claims of a perfect melt season thus far, and constant anticyclone dominated weather over the arctic for the last several months, Central Arctic Basin sea ice area is looking quite robust. The Central Arctic Basin is the region of the Arctic that at the end of melt season, has the most surviving sea ice extent and area, and has significantly more surviving sea ice than all other regions combined. One could make a strong argument that arctic sea ice extent and area minimums, will not be in the top 5 lowest minimums. sites.google.com/site/arctischepinguin/home/amsr2/grf/amsr2-area-regional.png

Indeed - to repeat my earlier post (auto updating further up the thread)... It is not looking overly warm Nor amazingly ice free..
