Well we are back in the northern hemisphere.
Unfortunately we will be in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ or
doldrums) for a few days.
The ITCZ is the area on the globe
where the winds from the two hemispheres converge, lots of cloud, torrential
rain, thunderstorms and clouds.
The top pic is a screen shot from the x-band radar just as we crossed the line, the yellow clutter on the screen is rain passing through. The blue is a trails feature, showing where the rain was.
The second pic is the current view from my porthole, a wee bit different from a few days ago!
