Antarctic Ice Extent
After reaching a all-time record high a couple of weeks ago, Antarctic sea ice extent remains well above average. Melting season really starts to get going late October/early November, so it should be interesting to watch what level are, by then.

Arctic Ice Extent
While Arctic ice extent remains very much below the average, it has finally surpassed 2007's ice extent, and is rapidly rising. At this rate, Arctic ice extent should reach 2011 levels, within the next several weeks.
