Arctic is getting its Mojo back

 


We are still suffering from an excess of cyclones, but the Arctic is getting some black and white.


If it continues, the Arctic can fight off the weak plumes attacking it.


The Arctic spill through the Greenland Gap is just kissing northern Scotland.  And we can see a disorganized clipper coming down on Toronto.


The endless cyclones are driven by cold, and not warmth.  They are ejecting warm, dry air at mid-altitudes over the Arctic.  None of this can be seen because we are deficient in the necessary physics.  It would be easy to have mimic-like charts showing this air, but it would not be popular.  As it is, we shall just make everybody happy with this gloomy warmth.  But watch out when the cyclones stop.

The cyclones are unexpected and have shattered my predictions of a big freeze in December.  I am totally wrong on this one.  The other prediction will be looked at, for an end-of-year summary, when the ocean currents come out.
