I can't get used to the time change, so I'm waking up early and have to write something.
These are the low-level winds. It's all the weather people pay attention to. The winds swirl around low pressure areas, which are high-energy areas when considering tropical plumes. The winds are rotating around Antarctica, and these are real 'transport' winds as opposed to the Jet Stream, which is a myth in terms of transport.
I've never seen such a pattern, so far into their summer. It's keeping the ozone hole going, which is larger and deeper this year, unless you go back 20 years. The only thing that the warmies/ozoners can say is that it would be 'far worse', had not the world spent a trillion dollars getting rid of perfectly fine freon. However, the ozone hole is a result of extreme cold in stratosphere, and not chlorine. Nasa proved that themselves before shifting the evidence. So sad. Next year, will they still use the 'could've been worse' thing? Or the year after when it gets worse than anything in the 80's? I love these guys. :)
In the north, the winds are swirling around an ice lock. If it gets super cold, then winds have a tough time getting through. As explained in my backgrounder, an ice lock is the most powerful thing we have going. It locks in ice advances when they come. The only thing that breaks up continental glaciation is isostatic sinking.
The ice volume curves finally seems to be cutting in. I expect it to go through the pack and reach a new peak, because no Pacific reversals are in sight.
