May 11, 2005. Noted the 'gap' between the Hemispheric Vortex and the Equatorial air is closing. Also noted the turbulent 'injection' system over central North America directly from the equator to the cooler Great Lakes System. The Equatorial System appears to be increasing in volume UNLESS it is just spread out over a greater area as the North Polar Vortex pulls that moisture further north. This is a phenomena not noted in the Southern Hemisphere in relation to Antarctica where there is greater Ocean surface area as compared to the Northern Hemisphere where there is greater land mass. Antarctica is also a land mass where as the Arctic Ocean is an ocean capable of FLOATING in displacement under an ionized vortex. There is far greater plasticity with the water relationships of Earth in the Northern Hemisphere than the Southern.
