So big for so little a storm in the North Pacific. OK so there are two of them but ...40 knots each? Someone's kidding ... right?

Is this really happening? Has anyone checked?


Lots of high ice today warmer than toast though. Lots of compression on the Polar charts -both Poles. Where is it going to hit?
It couldn't possibly be the Channel could it?

A good test for the standards of 1980's engineering if it is.

Interesting that the Low's core declines in the place they normally grow so large.
