Indian Ocean Satellite
Noted the eastern border of the 'heat concentration' of this area ends where the topical rainforests end. It is all due to water vapor provided by dense flora. Without the ability by Earth to concentrate heat into water vapor to be transported and dissipated, we may as well be living on Venus.

West Pacific Satellite
The heat concentration is considerable over the topical forests of Indonesia where there is still humidity/water vapor compared to the drought stricken Australia. The heat transfer off the west coast of Australia is noted.

Noted the Mid-Atlantic anti-cyclonic vortex and the west coast system continues to build in dynamics. Interesting Gulf of Mexico clouds as well.

Africa-Europe Satellite


Noted in this satellite is the Mid-Atlantic anti-cyclonic vortex. The heat transfer off the equator, across Africa at 4 o'clock to Antarctica is noted here. There is also a heat transfer reaching from the Amazon River Delta at 5 o'clock to the Antarctica ice fields.
