Atlantic maintains its residual heat

 The Atlantic belt wasn't as affected by the big Pacific heating event.  Now, it maintains its residual heat.  This is good for the UK, since it gets regular big storms between the Arctic spills.



The heat is mainly in the Caribbean, which is sheltered from the cold water coming up from the south.  This is good for people who want to have a warm vacation this year, like myself.

Last year, we went to Tahiti, and it was cold, during the warmest season.  Blah.  That's the ice cycle coming to bite me.  


The anomaly map shows the Atlantic keeping up the good fight.  This is a perfect 'La Nina' picture for nooa, except it will be gone tomorrow, due to the massive turbulence.

I've run out of things to write now, even though my 'Gut Gummies' are floating my brain.


Arctic goes into recharge - UK the only active spill

 The Arctic is in recharge when the Greenland white light goes out.  The hypothesis is that the Arctic air acts a giant tip bucket, that fills up and then tips out.  The effect is caused by topography, with the Arctic being surrounded by highlands, holding the cold air in.  The only big open spillway is the Greenland Gap, but that can get closed by tropical plumes.


Here we see the Arctic taking a break.  


The anomaly map shows that our Cold Spear of Destiny has run out of gas.


We see there is a trickle of flow maintained to hit the UK.  I admit defeat over in Calgary, where there was a spill over the mountains by a Pacific plume.  That could only happen with weak Arctic flow.

The recharge period could last a week, and then it all flows out again.

ps. the tropics air temp continues to dive.  Still, warmer than the north

They are doomed because they don't want natgas...

ps. 'Brain Rot' is the term of the year.  No comment.

Brighten up in your old age

 We need old people to be brighter, since they are the only ones who remember physics.  We had a very bright grand-nephew over to dinner yesterday.  He's a Ukrainian refugee and 4 years old.  He has an innate attraction to physics and math, just like me, but no relation.  Anyway, we had him on the Turing mechanical computer, which my kids ignored, and he was making up new things instantly.  Downstairs, in my lair, I went over all my microchip work with the Raspi.  He loved making the connections.

This is my dream for my grandkid, but no hope there, since he is being raised by California kids.  All software - blah.  I gave up on my kids, but my dreams are for the grand kids to ask about physics.  

But I digress.  We must realize we are evolved from worms.  Some people, like trumples, make that an obvious thing.  But a worm is just a gut, mouth and a brain.  That's what we started with, and our brains are still connected to our gut, in a complex manner.  We may offload things to the gut, acting as part of the brain (gut instinct!).

Some researchers in the UK believe this and tested old twins.  One twin got a prebiotic, and the other, the usual placebo.  In a very short time, the one with the prebiotic was brighter, by tests.  A prebiotic is a proven nutrient to the gut bacteria.


Inulin is the key here.  I like gummies.  Two days after taking this every day, I feel a lot brighter, later in the morning.  I use up all my brain power in the morning, doing the blog, so right now, this is giving me an extra hour, and no fatigue.  I also take a vitD gummie, but I have never noticed anything.

So, brighten up everybody, and think of physics!


Weather forecast continues with physics 'Great Expectations'

 


We continue to have Arctic flow.  The big issue with the conventional weather people is 'whether' that Pacific plume will cross the mountains and warm up Calgary, with a classic Chinook.  I don't see it.


Greenland is still white, and that is my general signal for cold.


We are getting a solid air flow over HudsonB.  Since there is no ice there, I'm assuming that air isn't that cold.  With really cold air, we get a cyclone.


The air flow to the UK is trying to establish itself again, but warm plumes are interfering.


For the big picture, we continue to have the important ocean temperatures plunging.


The Gulf of Maine is my surrogate for the NA temperatures.  It is good to use a body of water, rather than peak air temperatures, as the 'main' warmies are wont to do.


I use the 'Nino Belt' as the thermometer for the whole world.  We are way down.


The anomaly map shows the HudsonB air flow is warm, since it seems to be a 'curved back' plume.  Our 'Spear of Cold Canadian Counter-Attack' is still there, and I hope it hits Marred Lego with a wallop.
