Cliff, just for the record, that Alex Newman article you linked me to about increasing Antarctica sea ice is from mid 2016 and already badly dated. Here is a much more recent report from July 2019, which states, in part:

A new satellite analysis reveals that between 2014 and 2017 sea ice extent in the southern hemisphere suffered unprecedented annual decreases, leaving the area covered by sea ice at its lowest point in 40 years. The declines were so big that they outstripped the losses in the fast-melting Arctic over the same period. “It’s very surprising. We just haven’t seen decreases like that in either hemisphere,” says Claire Parkinson at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, who undertook the analysis.

Btw, there are articles elsewhere that report how the increases in Antarctica sea ice in previous years is actually a predicted effect of global warming.....
