#23It's especially interesting to watch Hermine travel up the US east coast right now. NHC forecast track here for the next 5 days: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?5-daynl#contents Right now is especially fascinating because the Euro and GFS models have recently begun to agree on the storm re-forming into a hurricane in a couple of days off the New Jersey coast. It's a fascinating time to watch wind patterns…
I have found the Euro model quite good for the Northeast US.

#24Whoa, check this out, 121 KM/h winds over the Antarctic Peninsula: https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/ort...
It doesn't look like the other storms, in Hawaii and Florida. I wonder if these are normal conditions for that ridge?

#25If you use 500mbar visualizations, you can visualize the "reverse" weather pattern from last summer, with the wonky jet stream, high pressure baking the Pacific Northwest, and cool weather in the midwest and on the East Coast: https://earth.nullschool.net/#2015/07/03/1800Z/wind/isobaric...
Another example from July 2014: https://earth.nullschool.net/#2014/07/14/1500Z/wind/isobaric...
Conversely, you can see how the "heat dome" of this summer smothered almost the entirety of the contiguous United States, except for the West Coast in general and the Pacific Northwest in particular: https://earth.nullschool.net/#2016/07/22/1500Z/wind/isobaric...

#26That's really cool, but does it really have to reload data on every viewport move/change?
I use somewhat similar app for android made by Croatian Ministry of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.mppi.nis&ah... There's also iOS version https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/nautical-info-service-croati...
Really handy when you're out there.

109 right next to Hawaii.

This will be almost the only rain we've seen all summer. Here's hoping for hurricanes.

#30Anyone know what the 100km/h ridge of high speed wind over Antarctica is from?
