Sounds like Mother Nature is jerking Obama’s string - just for the helluvit...
Link isn’t correct.
The excess Antarctic ice is just as much evidence of global warming as the missing Arctic ice, silly.
On a geologic time scale, we are still at historic low CO2 levels in the atmosphere.
Just to be sure everybody understands:
On today’s date, the “average” Antarctic sea ice area is 6.714 million sq kilometers.
If global warming were indeed “global” or “warming” then it stands to reason that BOTH the Arctic AND the Antarctic sea ice would be melting - would be less than “normal for today’s date, right?
However, today, 8 May 2014, the actual Antarctic sea ice area is not only not “below normal” but it is actually 1.67 million sq kilometers ABOVE average at 8.381 millions sq kilometers!
Oh - by the way. This is NOT some “day-to-day” isolated single report of “excess” Antarctic sea ice ... Antarctic sea ice area has been increasing since records began in 1979, and has had a continuously positive anomaly since May 2011. Now 3 continuous years of a “positive” Antarctic sea ice anomaly!
If this steady increase in sea ice area continues, Cape Horn and the Straits of Magellan could be blocked by excess Antarctic sea ice within 8-12 years.
Granted:
The above link is to the http://www.WattUpWithThat.com web page itself.
Sea Ice reference page is under the [References] tab, then -> Sea Ice”
Directly, use this link. Total sea ice is near the top of the page, then Arctic, then maps, then Antarctic.

This a a desperate last gasp response to the rapidly growing skepticism of anything associated with environmental hysterics. Rahm Emmanuel did the world a great favor by exposing the liberals’ universal strategy, “Never let a good crisis go to waste.”
Thanks!
The planet is cooling, we will all die from the cold unless we repent and go green.
I saw this in a vision, watching Twilight Zone.

Thanks Robert A. Cook, PE.
The press doesn't hold liberals accountable... for anything.
We must act like Noah did, prepare for something that isn’t here yet. It’s time to go into the sweater making business. Someone can invent the solar sweater. It would, of course, be made out of solar panels just to make libs happy.
I read recently-maybe on FR- that the polar bears are in danger BECAUSE the arctic ice is so thick (3 or 4 meters, I believe) that the seals cannot break through it for air holes and thus are not accessible to hungry polar bears emerging from hibernation.
Golly gee, Al Gore, and Obummer, what do we make of that?
