Large positive N Atlantic SST anomaly
 

What is that likely to mean for our weather?

Had a look today at the FNOC site - OTIS SST anomaly page:

https://152.80.49.210/PUBLIC/

I am amazed at the extent of the North Atlantic/Arctic SST anomaly - I
can't remember having seen it so extensive before. Given the world map I
wonder if it means that for some reason the North Atlantic drift is
penetrating deeper and more systematically into the area?

I have the impression that the flow is slowing but the warm salty water is
no
longer sinking. Perhaps it is too warm. See

I would be interested in what others think.
Cheers, Alastair.

That's one for the forecasters, not me.

I will give you a backcast though.

With a large area of warm water in the GIN and Barent Seas the UK temperatures
will soar in the north of the country, especiallly Scotland and record
tempeatures will be recorded in the Shetland Isles.

Is that any good :-?

Cheers, Alastair.
