The monthly extent for February 2024 landed among the 3 lowest on record, behind 2023 and very close to 2017.

Nowhere, does sea ice in Feb 2024 seem to fall outside the 30-year mean contour. Except for the A23 that is seen northeast of the Antarctic peninsula 🧊😀

The line graph displays the monthly sea-ice extent in the Antarctic for February from 1979 to 2024. In 2024, the February extent ranked as 2nd-3rd lowest on record, behind 2023 and very close to 2017. Source data is OSI SAF sea-ice extent v2.2.

Fascinating to track the path of the massive iceberg A23🧊 as it approaches and hereafter leaves the edge of the Weddell Sea sea ice. It looks like a dance 💃

Source: MET Norway's weekly Weddel Sea ice charts from 2023 Oct - 2024 Febr. The iceberg is marked red, with "A23A".

Antarctic sea-ice extent went from 9th to 3rd lowest in January. Now just a stone's throw from being record-low.
