It's part of the phase shift in the Arctic Oscillation pattern. Yes, whenever there are large temperature gradients across latitudes, a synoptic storm mixes the warm air north and cold air south. It's baroclinic instability. Heat finds its way to the Arctic. That's why we live in the troposphere; air mixes. So....if 2014 and 2015 are the hottest years ever and the poles are warming faster than the rest of the planet, then why is Arctic coverage the greatest it's been in the last decade?

It makes sense that early to mid-2000's were much warmer globally.
