#6 1. That should have been 'no net melting' not 'not melting'

2. The Antarctic Ice Shield (counting both continental and shelf ice) has been greater than normal for most of the past 6 years or so. Some global circulation theories posit that this has led to a slight north displacement of the tropical convergence zone which in turn has led to a north displacement of the mean mid lat jet stream which has led to some warmer than normal weather in the US in the past 6 years, especially the past 12 months or so.
