Pacific Ocean is stone cold

 


I've experienced it first-hand.  So cold, everybody down in Tahiti was wearing a winter coat.  I just got along with a shirt.  Cold in Sanfran.

I have discovered that the culprit is clouds,  Specifically, steady high-altitude clouds.  Now, I have to discover what cloud cover allows heating of the ocean water.  A drop of water contains 4000 times more available heat energy than a drop of air (comparison by volume),  I suspect it has something to do with rain.
