Jerry, Stadiumwave posted the strat vortex at 10 and 50 mb, which is the strat vortex. I believe George has it right when he asks about the polar vortex(which is the strat PV) in this instance…at least the way that I understand it.
Isn’t that 50 mb more important for us being it seems to influence the sensible weather much more often than the 10 mb?
But I guess the take away is it’s showing the PV splitting and the bigger node on our side of the pole in both depictions…that could be fun…no?
And that JMA H5 looks quite nice.
