Anomilies or not the waters will continue warming overall with the longer days and high sun angle..The cold air masses are slowly becoming more moderate and will have less impact on the weekly flucuations as Spring progresses. I am more curious about the temps at depth in the ATL at this point but can't find the links to the graphics..

In the Pacific La Nina remains firm while in the Atlantic nothing that shows very warm waters only average maybe very slightly average ssta's but definitly less warm than in 2005 at this time in late March.

I see that last assault on the GOM did it's trick and lowered temps a tad. However, that heat will be regained fairly easily so I wouldn't breathe a sigh of relief on that.


I wonder what SST's are gonna be come Mid April...

The "assault" is no where near over. This huge cold core High from Canada will stick around for several days - very unusual for this time of year - I think by the time this "assault" is all done, the central and northern GOM will see temps lowered by about 3-5 degrees F on avg depending upon the depth of the water and tertiary loop current influence.

If fronts like this can push down into April and May (and yes they have done so like this in the past), it may take the GOM until sometime in June or into July to get substantially warm enough.

Yeah that sounds fairly interesting.

But Boca, are you sure your not just wishing that will happen? :wink:


Just joking, but I am too :D

David disturbing the word that you used is the right one to describe how the GOM is right now in terms of the sst's and ssta's.

I agree.In a couple of weeks,SSTs will rebound back to where they were.By the start of the season(june 1) they will be cookin.
