(snip) what is snip? and what could it possibly be that is so bad from a Ratty? nonentropic, you must be a very young person who never posted on bulletin boards in the early days. A [Snip] marks a deletion from a previous post, leaving the appropriate bit - to which you are responding - intact. It's a courtesy to the original poster and, anyone interested can look back to see if the [snip]ped bits are relevant. I'm (almost) offended that you should question a venerable poster, despite the name. Rats have survived through the ages .....

and it will be worse this year .. as all that lovely cold from the southern hemisphere smashes across the equator and mixes with the warm .. the remnants are still there round japan and off it's coast .. plus a huge spot in the middle of the atlantic ..from last yr . looking at the southern hemisphere weather.unisys.com/surface/sst_anom_new.gif when the Antarctic melt gets underway it will have no were else to go .. again it will be pushed down and upwell in the north .. and this yr I'm thinking it will get as bad as to slow or stop North Atlantic Drift .. and the pacific will cool dramatically.. as I always say if we have another ice again it will come from the south

Looks like we have turned through the minimum I make it to be 3.483

Not so fast. We are emitting CO2 in Iraq. The Arctic will get hot soon. All Gore and Mikey Mannnnn said so.

I like the "All Gore" spelling, Sig! It sure seems that way! All Gore all the time!

So, the bottom is in...easily within 2 standard deviations of the last few decades average, but those last couple of weeks took it a little lower than I expected

First minus degree here in Finland with heavy frost on neighbours roof and strong winds. Leaves still on nearly all of the trees so we have gone from summer to 'winter' very quickly. Totally normal however, soon we will have snow then it will all melt again till around Christmas or later. It was another hot summer but its over now.

Models again: It's worse than we thought (again):

Mean Artic ice extent for September has been updated at DMI Checking back through the record a significant rise in mean sea ice extent has occurred for two successive years only on two other occasions 1990/1/2 and 2008/9/10. We await with interest September of 2015

Models again: It's worse than we thought (again): Greenland is bowl shaped it would be really clever for that ice sheet to slide 'upwards' then down into the sea.

I questioned a group of pro warming people recently about how the Antarctic could be melting and pasted temp data showing how the interior never really goes above 0°c.
I was told the reduction in ice mass was because the glaciers spread out to sea and this us what causes the increased ice extent.
The analogy put to me was a scoop of ice cream slowly spreading out....
I didn't ask if it had stopped snowing or why ancient frozen glaciers in sub zero regions were affected by 0.whatever increase, now paused, world warming.
Their argument makes no sense to me....
