You're behind the times, harry:

" On September 4, NSIDC, based at the University of Colorado, stated
on its website that in August 2013 the Arctic ice cover recovered by
a record 2.38 million sq km €“ 919,000 sq miles €“ from its 2012 low.
News of this figure was widely reported €“ including by Mailonline -
on September 8. But on September 10, the NSIDC quietly changed it to
1.38 million sq km (533,000 sq miles) €“ and replaced the original
document so the old figure no longer shows up on a main Google
search. It can now only be found on an old €˜cached page."

The latter, corrected, figure, means a 29% increase in Arctic sea ice
this summer.
