The new maps are in. As stated in my background, these are the vector drawings of Argo floater movement. There are thousands of these things, but sometimes they just aren't in important areas. Case in point is the cold-water feed of the Pacific belt.
It's back again, full blast, coming straight up from huge-ozone-hole Antarctica. It wasn't really there last time, probaby due to a lack of monitors.
Below is the Alaska Pacific current feed. It has reversed.
Again, it may have never been there, but the freeze-up is still at a good rate, but starting from a low spot.
ps. we are seeing really weird signals in the north Atlantic.
This is combined with sea surface temps.
The northern Gulf Stream has split in two, with a cold one going north, and the warm one going below Spain. Neat. I'm pretty sure the water around the UK has never been so cold.

Interesting. As I will admit I am guessing at this. By taking your info are we setting up for another clipper next week. I see temps dropping and fairly quickly. Are there maps showing longer term cycles of the currents other than 36 hour.
There are no long videos of the ocean currents. That's why I'm doing a video for the every 5 days that it comes out. The interesting thing are the massive changes over the years, and how things can change so quickly. The tropical plumes can have a longer time span.

They are interesting in how a pattern can persist for months, and then suddenly change. Right now, it is in the 'Yukon Scoop' pattern.
That Yukon scoop you talk about, is that the possible start of a another Alberta clipper.
Yes, it's the Pacific tropical plume going up to the Yukon and then coming down on us as a clipper. It scoops out the Arctic ice cream. There is also the push from tropical plumes going up from Europe. Conservation of mass. I am talking from my understanding of physics. All of this could be measured and then my various hypotheses could be wrong.
Entropy in a Stirling Engine mass doesn't matter but friction might
