By looking at the map of World Current Temperatures compared to Average a distinct El Nino is beginning to form to the West of South America signified by the dark red. If this continues we are sure to have a much milder Winter worldwide than in 2008 and 2010 could be a very warm year indeed. Other areas of note are Antartica is much milder than normal as is the Arctic Circle both signifying a warming trend. The rest of earth shows a lot of areas of both blue and orange depending on the climate at the time.
2009 is turning into quite a warm year throughout planet earth and should be one of the top 10 warmest years of all time. The Polar Sea Ice is at its lowest for the last 30 years for November and the Winter temperatures are above normal in most of the Northern Hemisphere.

This trend would seem to suggest that sea ice is now increasing year on year but it is too early too say and the final levels of this year are yet to be confirmed. But one thing is for sure is that the final figure is well below the long term average which suggests warming is continuing apace in the North Pole. Also the past 3 Summers have been cool in the Northern Hemisphere so the next quite hot one could bring the lowest level of sea ice yet. Predictions of little or no sea ice would seem to be off the mark yet.
