I find this... confusing? Yes confusing.

And to throw things sideways even more, CT area is down 21K.

I'm actually not confused; day to day numbers less than some threshold... 10K? 20K? 50K? ... in either direction are within the range for sampling noise. Extent also can increase considerably and still imply unfavorable conditions. So, we have strong wind and ice movement, lots of cloudiness and precipitation - all things which either interfere with measurement or disturb the ice in hard to predict ways. No confusion here, just curiosity.

We are still transitioning from freeze to melt. There will be oscillation of the system along that "boundary", much as a top oscillates just before it slows enough to fall over. There is nothing in the numbers inconsistent with that, vis-a-vis the arctic. In a way in fact, it provides a metaphor for the larger scale changes we see across climate as a whole. We are nearing tip over.

Will be interesting to see if the "June swoon" that happened in June of 2012 during the record low ice extent (when ice extent took a dive lower).....will happen in May of this year.....
