Antarctica Surface Winds


The surface winds at the shorelines were more turbulent than today, from yet a previous day's higher tropospheric event when the 'heat transfer' vortex arrived on the continent. They have 'settled' into an interpretation of the higher tropospheric vortex today. So much so, that the only 'disturbance' is noted to be under the sustained vortices presence. The heat on the temperature map is also noted in these areas of higher wind and disturbed upper tropospheric air. The interpretation is rather simple, actually.
