Arctic sea ice extent continues to run well ahead of the last few years, as it has done for most of this year so far, and continues to grow at a time of year when it normally begins to stabilise and recede.

 

Average extent in February was the highest since 2013, and stands greater than 2005 and 2006:

Temperatures in the Arctic have been close to average, apart from a brief blip at the end of last month:

Meanwhile, down under sea ice extent has recovered strongly at the summer minimum in the last year or two, and is back to 1980s levels.
