Delayed again! Just back from fieldwork (temporarily) so my timing is all out of whack. I'll leave this up for a few days though.

Anywho, over the last month extent has fluctuated between lowest on record and about 6th lowest. Beaufort and Chukchi are holding up rather well, while the Siberian side is close to record lows and PIOMAS volume remains 6th lowest on the latest update (mid-July)

As a reminder, the extent minima since 2010 in millions of km2 from the daily NSIDC data are:

2020:    3.7
2019:    4.1
2018:    4.6
2017:    4.6
2016:    4.1
2015:    4.4
2014:    5.0
2013:    5.0
2012:    3.3
2011:    4.3
2010:    4.6

Any chance of a 2022 melt season minimum poll this year?
