Click on the graph for full size to make the minimums easier to read. 2014 is on there, but I suspect it will change.

UPDATE: Data has been published

Normally the NSIDC Sea Ice Data is posted on their site at 6:51am Pacific Time.

Some days it is late or isn’t updated until the next day.

The MASIE data gets updated about 7:17am Pacific. It was updated … but it is the previous days data.

Arctic Sea Ice Extent Aug 27 2014 – -1,069,000 sq km below the 1981-2010 mean. Data for Day 238. Data here.

Drop of Only 18,000 Over Last 2 Days. 2014 seems to be most similar to 2009 and 2013.

2009’s minimum was 5.05488 million sq km on day 255
2013’s minimum was 5.07709 million sq km on day 256

But I’m not making a prediction.
