Steve Goddard has provided some useful charts (and links to the sources) on Arctic sea ice. At this point in time, the Arctic sea coverage is at a 7 year high and is nearly at the 20 year average level. See: http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/04/21/leaving-the-ice-pack-behind/#more-7248
It will be interesting to see how the current year compares to previous years come September, the point of lowest ice coverage. Note, 2008 had the second worst coverage in September, yet was ahead of the past four years in the Spring. d.
