The two strongest vortices remain on approach and leaving the North American Continent. Yep.

The vortices of the Southern Hemisphere are heat transfer systems no different than last week however they are finding resolution at higher latitudes at approximately 60, although there was one that landed on the southeast coast. The resultant temperatures do not indicate strong sublimation as much of the capacity of the sunlight has gone north. The fuel source for incapacitating heat of the ice is diminished, at least for this week.

Nice. Very nice.

24 hour loop - Primarily 'inland wind' bring cold temperatures onto Antarctica from shorter solar radiation cycle.

There is still some heat transfer occuring as noted in the southeast of the continent, but, with the sun traversing north it's diminished in it's intensity and 'reach.' Most of the vortices 'around' Antarctica are finding resolution at higher latitudes than the continent itself.

24 hour loop - We are cold again. - Only 3 AM and 9 AM are avalable for May 21, 2007
