30% ice extent is now just below 2006.

    Is this rapid change another example of wind dispersing the ice? The apparent density seems to have decreased from the earlier date in your blink comparator.

    Presumably the same effect which compacted the ice to give the unusually higher density and significantly lower extent that (temporarily) obscured the arctic ice recovery this year.
