I've noticed a trend that has become disturbing. While I am sure this occurrence has happened before, the severity of it today can not be denied.

As the solar winds come roaring over the edges of our planet, they affect the weather at the poles.

If the solar wind is stronger at one pole more than the other, then the atmosphere at that pole will become distorted, and the normal pin wheel patterns of lows coming from the poles, will shift.

The actual solar wind does affect our winds, but more than this, it is the solar energy transferred through the aurora that alters the winds even more.

The pressure coming at the south pole has become very sharp, it has in fact, pushed the pin wheel pattern of air currents into disarray and even caused nearly the whole area to shift sideways.

Here is the current southern aurora zone, it is normally centered at the red mark in the middle. As you can see it is not only pushed sideways, it is nearly out of the center area entirely.

Here is the storm and cloud patterns around the pole currently, notice how the center of the pin wheel pattern has also been pushed off the continent of Antarctica.

These lows affect the weather patterns of not just Antarctica, and Australia, they push against the wind circulations in the middle of the hemispheres, which in turn, like cog wheels in a clock, alter how the equatorial winds move. Eventually, this disturbs air currents in the northern hemisphere.

Because of the speed and severity of the change in the polar lows, I predict that for the next two months, maybe three if this persists for a few days, the weather around the world will be greatly disturbed.

seems you could tell what this lil' sphere is here moving west @21:00? [link to www.lmsal.com] reposted from another thread couple days back.
