If the tropical plumes are weak, and the Arctic is calm, we get 'locks'. This is static or stagnant air that is extremely hot or cold. This summer I was expecting a heat lock for Toronto, but we only got a small pocket in Europe.
In July, the sun is overhead, and can create a 'solar furnace', or the 'Death Valley Effect'. I have no idea as to the detailed physics of this, but you can see it on the ocean plumes chart.
It just stays there.
The northern red isn't really anything because it's not that hot. Europe is the only place for pictures now. There was some mention of Asia, but I don't see it.
I know your all saying 'When do we get one of those?'. Tough luck, looks like the Arctic is doing the 'Oops, I did it again.' dance.
This dance is bringing rain to the West, when I was expecting the start of the 300 year drought. Who knew the Arctic Ice Machine would keep going all year?
