Hi all Can anyone tell me the last time the ice on the pole was not attached to any land mass? As it looks like there is a chance of it this year. The temps are set to rise over north and north west Greenland looking at gfs forecast for that area (if you trust the gfs that is) and you can see on this image a line stating to appear around the north cost of Price Patrick Island and Greenland see link http://iup.physik.uni-bremen.de:8084/amsr/...MSRE_visual.png What do you think? And what would happen if the pole ice was free floating in relation to the brake up and melt, any ideas? Sorry if this has been asked before. Thanks Me

Hello all First post Looking at the info about last years ice minimum and this years it looks to me that... 1. The area the ice is covering is more at this time than last year. 2. The amount of ice concentration for is much less (looking at arctic.atmos.edu) So it looks like a catastrophemight be on the way Darkaman as a large amount about to go if the concentration pictures are correct. We will all see soon...
