Global cooling: Arctic ice caps grows by 60% against global warming predictions | Mail Online:

This in and of itself is weather.  There are plenty of verified pictures and accounts on the net going back decades and longer showing that we have had much more and much less ice there at this time of year.  The fact is it's highly variable on short, medium, and long term trends.  While I am one who does not support AGW, I do support climate change as a theory.  One only needs to walk to the glacial scratch marks on several pieces of exposed bedrock in central park NY to see it.  Here are  a few pictures that I took myself.  The fact is that climate does change.  Another fact is that weather can produce significant changes year to year that often can make the longer trend harder to see.  So, last year's low was no more evidence of warming than this years greater ice coverage number.  Of course, it does do one thing; disprove many of the extreme doom and gloom predictions from the past 5-10 years that said we'd have no ice in the Arctic by now.  That, at least, this does prove.
