Huge Antarctic Ice

The Australian Broadcasting Co. News reports on the late winter ice conditions in Antarctica. Hat tip to Drudge Report for the link.
Scientists say the extent of Antarctic sea ice cover is at its highest level since records began.

Satellite imagery reveals an area of about 20 million square kilometres covered by sea ice around the Antarctic continent.
The records date back to 1979, some thirty-five years. If you scroll down you discover they blame global warming for the extra ice. I'd ignore their spin and focus on the extent of the ice.
