Ioke effects

There is a cool pic of Ioke here, which beautifully shows the effect on SST of the hurricane passing over (thanks to CB for pointing this out on the globalchange group).

[Small note: Chris Mooney nicked a snapshot of the pic, in case it fades from cache]

Above is the latest water vapor image for Ernesto, which now has a central pressure that's dropped to 997 mb and sustained winds that are nearing 60 mph. In short, it looks like this is going to be a Category 1 hurricane soon, our first of the season. And the projected track continues to look…

Clicking onto any dot along the Ioke path will access the SST anomoly for that date and place. Fascinating. Since I daily download global SSTs, I can pull up earlier SSTs before the cyclone reached that lat and lon and compare the impact of Ioke stirring things up.
