The question is "How low will it go?"
The usual wager applies. I'll post another poll when PIOMAS peaks.

There will be a new record low set in August, and the ice will continue to decline until it hit 1.5 million km in September.
In the next decade, 2007 will be in the category of a good year.

But then again, rumor has it that it will be 70 degrees in Colorado this week.
We only got a little snow from this "end of the world" blizzard, and it'll all be gone by Thursday.
