African-Europe Satellite
This continent is still hot over it's equatorial region, I wouldn't discount another hurricane in the Atlantic before too much longer.

South Pole Satellite
Noted vortex arriving from the West Pacific with heat transfer. Also noted, decreased vortexes arriving from Atlantic and Eastern Pacific due to 'heat transfer hurricanes (click here) and here.
However, the West Pacific has seen one Cat 4 Typhoon, two Cat 4 Super Typhoons and one Cat 5 Typhoon with a storm surge greater than feet, but continues to disaffect the southern hemisphere as Sol's radiation starts to reach below the equator.

Antarctica Wind Satellite (24 hour loop - click here)
The winds are interesting from a 'temporal' point of view. In the 24 hour loop, beginning with August 22, 2007 there are primarily calm winds, however, as the loop progresses into August 23, 2007 the surface winds pick up speed with some nearing 40 mph/18 m/s. The transending turbulence from upper disturbance/higher elevations of vortices; happens over time as opposed to varying wind changes with offshore wind differences.

Antarctica Jet Stream satellite (click for animation)
Although this view of the Jet Stream is relatively calm, in animation there are many high elevation vortices that have paid Antarctica a visit. In all the reporting stations other than Vostok the pressure is falling. In other words low pressure systems prevail in those areas with weather conditions of percipitation of one form of ice/snow. I didn't note any rain. The visibility at these reporting stations are low compared to Vostok which reports a visibility of 12 miles. The conditions at Vostok are more than likely clear, without any percipitation. Therefore the vortexes arriving as heat transfer on to Antarctica are at altitudes lower than Vostok. Hence, Vostok continues to enjoy the coldest conditions on Earth.
