Given a genus 2 curve [Formula: see text] defined over a finite field [Formula: see text] of odd characteristic such that [Formula: see text], we study the growth of the 2-adic valuation of the cardinality of the Jacobian over a tower of quadratic extensions of [Formula: see text]. In the cases of simpler regularity, we determine the exponents of the 2-Sylow subgroup of [Formula: see text].
