From this article on the BBC site it seems that land temperatures aren't all that relevant to ice melting.

What seems to be making a difference is the ocean currents, yet climate catastrophists become apoplectic at the thought of ocean fertilisation, believing that dumping a few tonnes of nutrients in the ocean would surely result in billions of people dying of thirst, as well as the extinction of almost all multi-celled marine life. The ideological cocoon they reside in insulates them from logical thought. They are oblivious to the current and ongoing ocean fertilisation experiments off the east coasts of China and the USA (a consequence of industrialisation),

and the absurd duality of actively sequestering carbon in terrestrial vegetation whilst believing such vegetation will become more prone to fire remains a tenet of the faith.

Antarctica: The continent reached a record high on Thursday when a research station reported a temperature of 64.9 degrees Fahrenheit, or 18.2 degrees Celsius. Climate experts see the rare heat as an effect of global warming.Published in the NY Times today. Interesting, and surprisingly 'on-topic'. I wonder who will be the first to mention the BOM's dodgy thermometer, and who will call the NYTimes 'fake news'.

Come on Guys. Saddle up!

askbucco,
Just wait till next winter as the northern hemisphere is getting record snow falls: http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Felectroverse.net%2Fall-time-record-cold-invades-eastern-russia%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR0ljH5xo1UyJixwIOW3m3Eit9epa_PZ4LVfgXyBtwydTt47ji_KEmm9RC0&h=AT3JIHWFYPJYSbV6wWMnODKPLN_zo2PV3YPqtBsD4l1Rsy1FeLiZTzb9vvNvkZgIbBnOz3N20_f_s48ofUA2jOnJJLVkJp88-tF4bVUGeITFDyDJQk9lKXO0eaKEYTrFckolPNx6CQZ7jvO170DdUHx5j-0I4cbeMg
