At the same time that record heat is occurring in the polar regions and elsewhere, snow is forecasted (scheduled) to fall as far south as Chihuahua, Mexico (2017 also saw record low ice at BOTH poles).

Scientists now believe that ice collects on the floors of deep craters at Mercury's poles, where it can remain permanently shaded from the Sun and reach temperatures as low as -235 degrees Fahrenheit (125 degrees Kelvin).
Low obliquity makes it easier to accumulate ice at the poles, and the precession effects alternate between one pole and another as to where ice most easily persists.
It is not that the polar regions are amplifying the warming «going on» at lower latitudes, it is that any warming going on AT THE POLES is amplified through inherent positive feedback processes AT THE POLES, and specifically this is primarily the ice - albedo positive feedback process whereby more open water leads to more warming leads to more open water, etc. *** «Climate model simulations have shown that ice albedo feedbacks associated with variations in snow and sea - ice coverage are a key factor in positive feedback mechanisms which amplify climate change at high northern latitudes...&raquat lower latitudes, it is that any warming going on AT THE POLES is amplified through inherent positive feedback processes AT THE POLES, and specifically this is primarily the ice - albedo positive feedback process whereby more open water leads to more warming leads to more open water, etc. *** «Climate model simulations have shown that ice albedo feedbacks associated with variations in snow and sea - ice coverage are a key factor in positive feedback mechanisms which amplify climate change at high northern latitudes...&raquAT THE POLES is amplified through inherent positive feedback processes AT THE POLES, and specifically this is primarily the ice - albedo positive feedback process whereby more open water leads to more warming leads to more open water, etc. *** «Climate model simulations have shown that ice albedo feedbacks associated with variations in snow and sea - ice coverage are a key factor in positive feedback mechanisms which amplify climate change at high northern latitudes...&raquAT THE POLES, and specifically this is primarily the ice - albedo positive feedback process whereby more open water leads to more warming leads to more open water, etc. *** «Climate model simulations have shown that ice albedo feedbacks associated with variations in snow and sea - ice coverage are a key factor in positive feedback mechanisms which amplify climate change at high northern latitudes...&raquat high northern latitudes...»

In November, even CNN reported on the record - low ice extent at both poles.
And remember, the satellite data are one small part of a vast amount of data that overwhelmingly show our planet is warming up: retreating glaciers, huge amounts of ice melting at both poles, the «death spiral» of arctic ice every year at the summer minimum over time, earlier annual starts of warm weather and later starts of cold weather, warming oceans, rising sea levels, ocean acidification, more extreme weather, changing weather patterns overall, earlier snow melts, and lower snow cover in the spring...
To use simpler words and be more exact: if the total amount of sunshine on the poles is lowest, we have an ice age — in between (the interglacials) it's mild and comfortable at high latitudes too.
The first half of 2017 has seen record low sea ice extents at both poles and near - record global average temperatures — despite the absence of a...
Sea ice at the other pole, around Antarctica, also reached a record November low.
Ice cores can be made near the poles and at a few elevated low latitude locations as well.
The more ice there is at the poles, the more of the Earth's surface is white, reflecting more of the sun's light and heat and lowering temperatures further.
More warming leads to a lot of feed - backs, some feed - backs lead to more CO2 (ie wildfires) and some leads to lower albedo (ie decreasing ice at the poles).
The planet developed permanent ice at the poles when GHG / C02 levels dropped low enough due to weathering when India met Asia or so the present level of knowledge appears to be telling us.
The assertion that replacing ice with water at the poles will cause warming because water is dark ignores that the sun is low on the horizon at the poles and sunlight is reflected off the water as glint.
