High altitude heat intrusion. I'll look at Antarctica again tomorrow, probably am. Click here for temp 24 hour loop



Many of the reporting stations are down. This is the Jet Stream satellite. There is a heat source noted in yellow/green from the Indonesian/Malaysian tropics at the equator, however, if quanity of heat movement were to be 'percentaged' between hemispheres at this region, there would definately be a higher percentage distributing to the northern hemisphere and toward the North American continent. However, the heat intrusion shows up on the temperature satellite loop primarily at 12 noon at the 6 AM and 6 PM views. That same phenomena shows up in a separate satellite as well. There is also a similar intrusion at 7 o'clock on the 12 PM view. There is high winds at the surface as well.
