  1. So how does the extent increase so fast in just a few short days? Also how does it do rapid drops in SH winter, like around day 200? Shouldn’t it steadily increase all winter – I would think even a slight warming spell would make the temps go from very extremely fridgid to merely extremely fridgid and shouldn’t cause the ice to melt.
