Climate experts tells us that the Arctic is melting at unprecedented rates, while NSIDC maps show that the amount of 4/5 year old sea ice in the Arctic is 310% of what it was in 2011.

Arctic experts used to describe the amount of MYI as the key metric of “Arctic sea ice health” – but right now they are focused on the nearly meaningless metric of maximum ice extent.

The alarmists’ motto is clearly, “Are you going to believe us or your own lying eyes?”
I think yesterday they said it was the 5th lowest extent ever (since it’s all blown to the shore). Come to think of it, all of the shores are South shores, aren’t they?
When the thickness is increasing warmists scream about extent. When the extent is increasing warmists scream about thickness….
YAWN.
Gail,
A few days ago you mentioned you have evidence of tampering before data is recorded at surface stations. This would obviously put the raw data into question. Would you leave a comment at my blog so we can discuss?
No they don’t, and no they’re not! Age is not the same as thickness or volume. Neither’s extent or area. Find all the facts here:

I wouldn’t expect to find any actual “facts” at a website called GreatWhiteCon….
Just a thought.
Anthony, a few days ago sent MR Hunt (aka Snow White) running a few days ago when he showed up accusing WUWT of cherry picking.
Guess MR Hunt hadn’t even bothered to look and see that Watts had a sea Ice page with links to tons of info.

(It has a link to who MR Hunt is.)
As Anthony has admitted in public, his sea ice page leaves much to be desired:

Ours is much more comprehensive!
It’s a parody of the Mail on Sunday’s “Great Green Con”. Would you expect to find any actual “facts” at the Mail Online?
Do you think the ice was younger and thicker in 2011, or are you perpetuating a “snow” job?
I don’t think that “Arctic experts… are focused on the nearly meaningless metric of maximum ice extent”.
I’d love to know how Steve defines “the amount of 4/5 year old sea ice in the Arctic”.
I don’t think that the “multi-year ice” currently drifting around in the Beaufort Sea is what it was even three or four years ago.
Do you want to see an ice free Arctic soon?
I think Snow White is looking for visitors. I see their type all the time, they keep pushing their link spam.
Reggie is going to have to obtain a nuclear powered blowtorch to cut thru that ice. As we already know, his own blowtorch is highly inadequate.
“When the thickness is increasing warmists scream about extent. When the extent is increasing warmists scream about thickness….”
And when they both increase, “it’s worse than we thought”!
Jimbo – No I don’t want to see an ice free Arctic soon. However the evidence suggests I am likely to be disappointed.
Furthermore I very much doubt that you see “my type” all the time!
I doubt Jimbo is interested in cross dressers SNOW WHITE.
I see you managed to get yourself kicked off WUWT so you are back over here with your ice hysteria.
Be careful. Mother Nature may decide to give us all more ice that we could ever want. The timings about right.
I haven’t been “kicked off WUWT”. Whatever gave you that impression? Your link merely reveals how impressed Anthony is with our Arctic sea ice videos and other resources. To quote the great man himself:
“As for the volume plots that are available, we don’t have a lot of faith in them, that said, we’ll add them with a caveat about those concerns.”
