Mid-Atlantic plume warms Britain


Both Toronto and Britain are being warmed this week by what I call 'Bitcoin Plumes', plumes of no intrinsic value.  :)  That is, they are going over cold water and are a bit of a puff.  We'll take it, however.

During normal times, the plume to Britain follows the hot water of the Gulf Stream, and contains a lot of heat energy.  At the same time, we are getting both Pacific and Gulf air.  Now, it's weird.
