Hello and welcome to the blog.
Huge high pressure ridging in the Arctic is making ice gains in the East very difficult, we can see from the image below the extent of the Anomaly.
For sure there will be episodes of cold air being forced out of the Arctic, America is currently seeing one of these events.
Arctic Sea ice concentration for yesterday was 5.86M Km2 with Antarctica sea ice concentration for the same date at 18.33M Km2.
Note coastal ice is trying to form.
Greenland.
SMBacc for yesterday was 121.4 Gigatons.
SMB Daily additions was .315 Gigatons, not a great day being honest.
Polar portal map looks like this, note - accumulation is still above the 1981-2010 mean.
That concludes today's update.
Thanks
David.
