Antarctic Sea Ice Extent is really on track to have the highest minimum in the modern satellite era.
Antarctic Sea Ice Extent as of Feb 7 2014 was 904,000 sq km above the 1981-2010 mean and 220,000 sq km above 2008.
904,000 sq km above normal is 27.4%. Day 37 was the 20th daily record of the year.
I’ve added the 2008 Highest Minimum point to this graph. Data is here. Click for bigger.

Stop it with the weasel numbers, they prove nothing…..For clarity, how many Manhattans is that?

One Manhattan is about 22.7 sq. mi., so about 83,990 sq. mi.
Isn’t it obvious? Those f***ing curly-Q light bulbs are working.
Maybe thats it. But it seems so dark in my house where I’ved used them.
