There's always summer and winter, except at the equator. There's always a half of the year when the days are longer, and a half when the days are shorter. This is even more pronounced in the arctic and antarctic circles.
Arctic summer is still bloody cold though.
Yes, and for some reason the summers just seem to keep getting warmer. Any ideas?

(Actually, this graph does highlight the extreme variability of SIE year-on-year. So while the trend is generally downwards, 'record lows' like the one reported are not directly attributable to GW with any significant degree of confidence.)
Yeah, we're living at the tail end of an ice age, the ice is melting big surprise, it doesn't mean that Jeezus is coming back.
Ice in the artic is NOT supposed to melt. Even in the middle of July.
Err, yes it does, see David B's graph. Actually minimum ice cover usually occurs around mid-September.
So, this is the first summer since they started keeping record, or what?
It's not that it is dropping, it's that it's dropped to the second lowest level we know of, that is the worrying factor.
Yeah, not really fundie but definately a FoxNews Zombie.
ice ISN'T FREEZING TO THE EXTENT IT WAS
One wouldn't know this watching FoxNews as they ignore warmer trends and only talk about climate change during cold snaps.
There are TWO Artics idiot. They're both melting.
It's November sixteenth, we should be soon hearing the Right-Wing talking about how so very fucking cold it is, somewhere, and claiming this absolutely means the worlds not warming up.
In Cleveland, it thaws in the summer. In the Arctic, some of it never thaws, and you get multi-year-old ice, much thicker than first-year ice....except that is now melting too.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
