The Arctic sea ice minimum has been reached now.  The NSIDC wasn’t paying close enough attention to their daily numbers because 2013 was the highest minimum since 2006 (just barely beating out 2009).

We can make the call now because we have passed the Sept16-18 period which often has declines in the average climatology.  Avg daily change from JaxaV2 and the NSIDC.
