Infrared GOES East 2.3.05. Huge. Complicated. There is a vortex over the Atlantic that appears to be spinning counter clockwise pulling energy (heat) off the peripheral fin from the Arctic Ocean Vortex. The dynamics have changed and the peripheral fin to the east of the vortex looks to be incorporating into the vortex as well. Huge. Water Vapor will lend a perspective to it's velocity. Later.
MY INITIAL reassessment is that the 'oscillation' is getting more dramatic. The cooling more cool and therefore the manifestation of the Jet Stream. The heating more hot and therefore new maximums. My initial reaction to that observation is that with 'swings' in velocity and air dynamic changes the 'biosphere' will find it more difficult to adapt. If this 'oscillation' becomes more intense the weather systems 'may' become more intense. MY BEST GUSES AT THE MOMENT. More than a 'best guess' - my best skeptical warning. I also believe I am mostly 'correct.'
