It's been so long it is your way now. The National Enquirer, Exxon and the World Bank appreciate it though!

Massive Iceberg About to Break Off Antarctica
An iceberg the size of Delaware is poised to break away from Antarctica, an event which may lead to the collapse of a massive ice shelf on the continent, according to researchers...........
......In response to expressions of concern on social media, MIDAS scientists responded that there was no need for alarm. "This is a fairly normal event, although it is spectacular and quite rare."

Fascinating.
I understand that most people dont care about this stuff, but I get a kick out of it.
"The calving loss is greater than the gain from surface mass balance, and Greenland is losing mass at about 200 Gt/yr."
The site is useful for the numbers.
They are updated rapid fire.
The part you quoted hasnt changed for as long as Ive been checking the page.
Years.
Look at the actual data.
Greenlands ice sheet is growing extremely fast this year.
Is that what your twitter master told you?
Childish.
Look at the 2000 to 2013 average and compare it to the 16-2017 graphic.,
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and see the explanation of your quote.
Its been a part of that page for at least five years.
My guess is that its part of a funding requirement.
Your guess?
Interesting weather effects --

The blue bands running southeast from the Great Lakes are lake effect snow, caused by cold air blowing over the open water surface, picking up moisture, and dumping it over land downwind. Later in the year, after the lakes have frozen over, there is no more lake effect snow.
The waters around Greenland have been seeing decreasing ice coverage and warmer air temperatures over the last few decades, which leads to a similar effect.
Knowledge of this is nothing new. It is not likely, however, to show up in any climate-change denier twitter feed.

Why the childish tone?
The information I posted is accurate and up to date.
I dont know why they havent updated their text in years, but the daily data is very good.
The data shows the ice sheet was at its low point 2012 -13.
This season is much cooler than last, probably due to carbon credits.
Are we looking at the same page? I don't see any data for the ice sheet in 2012-2013. I also don't see "this season is much cooler that last".

Snow in the Fox Range and Southern Alps make for a beautiful Summer day in Aotearoa.
My mistake. I meant to put 2011-12.
