Wednesday El Niño update - Some notable warming across a large part of the eastern half of the tropical Pacific Ocean during the last 7 days. And an ongoing strong westerly wind burst will continue to strengthen El Niño even further toward record territory.

Sea surface temperatures are substantially warming around the entire #Arctic Ocean in July during the satellite-era. This is especially large in the Kara Sea. Note the blue shading mostly corresponds to areas of sea ice.

A quick look at a cross-section of temperature trends in the lower atmosphere during the month of July.
The bottom of the y-axis is the lower troposphere, and the upper portion is reaching into the stratosphere. The x-axis is latitude. Da…

There is little to no temperature trend over the Central #Arctic in summer due to basic heat flux exchanges from melting ice. However, adjacent areas show long-term warming in July.
