I forgot to mention that the unusual warmth does not seem to apply to the Arctic.

The sea ice is almost at a 10 year high for the time of year: https://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/c...sea-ice-graph/

The temperature north of 80 degress N is lower than average: http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/meant80n.uk.php

and Surface Mass Balance of the Greenland ice sheet (GIS) is unusually positive: https://www.dmi.dk/uploads/tx_dmidat...mulatedsmb.png

For context on the GIS see: https://www.dmi.dk/en/groenland/maal...e-mass-budget/
