Yes, quite obvious, all filling no substance.
I see you only want pics from your detractors.
I find that very funny.
Put up what? Pics you collect from around the web and call your own?
This summer may see first ice-free North Pole

I find that very funny.
Yeah, not everyone totes a camera around wherever they go either. And some of us even lose pics we have taken in the past.
It's just another red herring of Krapatoe's to avoid showing any support for his own ludicrous claims anyway.

I would say that is very possible since average means some are higher and some are lower, so I would surmise that the Antarctic is lower just as the Arctic is higher.
Can a class of students have an improving grade average even if one student performs more poorly as the year progresses? Of course.
But for context, if you look at the last 33 years of ice gain in Antarctica, that amount is offset by just the last 5 years of ice loss in the Arctic. The net global sea ice area is still way down over that 33 year period.
Most of the time, the Antarctic is too cold to have significant snow fall. I've never heard of a serious snow storm at -40C. When i lived in the arctic, We rarely saw snow once the temperature dropped below -30. We'd get hoar frost and light dustings of ice crystals for weeks on end, but no snow storms.
The biggest snow storms occur just below the freezing point. At -40 the air has nearly no moisture. Technically most of the Arctic and Antarctic are deserts, as per the amount of annual precipitation.
Therefore it make sense to me that as Antarctica warms up, it will have more snow during the winter and increased melting during the summer.
Not silly, ignorant. Unless you've looked at the data. If that's the case then you're a liar.
Yep. I noticed. I actually read a little more than you on it, too.
For instance;

In other words, what you see on top belies what's going on underneath.
How could you possibly know that I read less than you? You must be a clairvoyant or have been peeping in my windows. I'll be sure to wear my garters from now on.
Who gives a damn about the ice anyway? Animals change with the climate. Browns bears became white brown hares got white owls got white. Everyone will just turn brown again. The combines can be driven further north following the disappearing bleeding ice. Nobody cares about ice unless it's diluting a drink.
Ok, I'll amend my comment to "I probably comprehended more than you and didn't cherry-pick through the article to find some little tidbit that even remotely supports my narrow view". .
Nope and nope.
Wear whatever you wish.
Now how'dja like to stick to the topic?
The Canucks better get their act together muy pronto in the Arctic. There are claims to be pursued.
There are undulations in every cycle!
Ice melt is good in the Arctic, it opens up shipping channels, also we are trying to find the remains of the Franklin expedition, maybe corpses will start floating to the surface.
