Sea Ice Extent – Day 93 – Global Sea Ice Still Above ‘Normal’ – Antarctica Still 1.1 million sq km Above ‘Normal’
Sea Ice Extent – Day 91 – Antarctica Sets 21st Daily Record of Year – Global Sea Ice Still Above ‘Normal’
Antarctica set a daily record for day 91. The old record was from 2014 and was broken by only 12,000 sq km.
This would be the 21st Daily Record for 2015.
The “streak” just shows the place for each day so for example Jan 1 was 2nd highest, Jan 2 was a record etc :

Sea Ice Extent – Day 90 – Global Sea Ice Still Above ‘Normal’ – Antarctica Still 1.1 million sq km Above ‘Normal’
Sea Ice Extent – Day 88 – Global Sea Ice Above ‘Normal’ – Antarctica 1.1 million sq km Above ‘Normal’
Sea Ice Extent – Day 87 – Global Sea Ice Above ‘Normal’ – Antarctica 1.1 million sq km Above ‘Normal’
Sea Ice Extent – Day 85 – Global Sea Ice Above ‘Normal’ By 250,000 sq km
Sea Ice Extent – Day 85 – Global Sea Ice Above ‘Normal’ – Antarctica Above 2 Standard Deviations
Global Sea Ice is above the 1981-2010 mean.
Antarctica is 2 standard deviations above the mean and has been for the last 10 days – and 49 days in total so far in 2015. In January there were 18 days 3 STD above.
The Arctic is only 98,000 sq km below the ‘maximum’ for 2015 which I called on day 53 (which may still turn out to be wrong). (See bottom graph for last 40 days)
