Monday ice update - #Arctic sea ice extent is currently the *lowest* on record for the date (JAXA data)...

• about 630,000 km² below the 2010s mean
• about 1,040,000 km² below the 2000s mean
• about 1,530,000 km² below the 1990s mean
• about 1,970,000 km² below the 1980s mean

@ZLabe First Blue Ocean Event would fit perfectly in 2026.

(my bet is 2027 if we get a super El Nino, though)
