Original Note:
This is a highly misleading. Not only is 2024 below the average (black line), but OP has only selected data from 2023 and used it to say melting isn’t occurring. Year to year variability will always occur, but regardless, 2024 is near the record low for this time of year. https://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/charctic-interactive-sea-ice-graph/
