Noted in this picture and in animation the winds are carrying once again warmer air from top ice west and then circulating it across WAIS.

The Southern Hemisphere

The heat is still over the Blue Ice. The 'vortex/jet stream' over Antarctica can be noted in a leisurely meander around the continent upto latitude 45 degrees which is the third 'complete' ring out from the center OR the fourth ring if one notes the partial ring at the continent. There is no heat intrusion from the surrounding areas that would ONLY deposit heat over the Blue Ice while sparting the shoreline.
