UNISYS Water Vapor Satellite of north and west hemisphere (click here for 12 hour loop - click here)
For the past two days the temperatures across the country is more or less homogenous.
I don't know where to begin to relay what I see. The 'tri-vortex' storms are actually four. There is one over Mexico trying to send out a storm into the Pacific without success.
The ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) is disturbed because it is a chronic feed for the "Storm Street."
The high-pressure system stabilizing Harvey is extending it's width. THAT width is allowing an extension of high pressure to the vortex over the northeast.
The first 'pinch' is occurring south of Connecticut and Rhode Island. It is nearly complete. However, there is another water vapor straw developing over Mississippi.
The vortex that looks like it is out of the Twilight Zone to the upper right is the real power system.
The reason 'my hope' is really unrealistic is because of the temperatures. They are homogenous under very thick clouds. STATIC TEMPERATURES = STATIC CLIMATE.
See, the issue are the clouds. They are very static. The reason? The water vapor that was on the surface of Earth 5 to 10 years ago is now thousands and tens of thousands of feet above Earth's surface. The 'new home' of water vapor has created "The Greenhouse Effect."
There is another one exactly like this developing just north of it. These are all insulating clouds. Considering the last report out of the Arctic Ocean was ice in very poor condition that broke under the weight of scientists and their equipment when never before; it is safe to say, the Arctic Ocean is now water vapor.
We are starting to look like Venus, except, the chemical content is compatible with 'the habitable zone' around Sol.
The continental ice of Greenland and Antarctica still exist to some extent. If clouds like this continue, kiss the continental ice goodbye and sea level rise will be quick enough to daunt governments.
Without a real break all anyone can do is MANAGE water. The USGS and Army Corps in the USA are vital to these efforts. There is no building new infrastructure right now. The assessment to those possibilities isn't even realistic at this point. Water is unforgiving. There will be new water structures where it wasn't before. People need to find family and make connections to their love and acceptance. Seriously.
It is what it is. I look forward to autumn and winter. Let's hope the water doesn't turn into ice in places like the northeast.
KNOCK OFF THE POLITICS. It is preventing people from moving forward. Idiots.
Be grateful there are highly skilled and seasoned professionals as GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES!
