Owen, 

 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, again.  Roger does post some Mean
Stuff.  

 

The first presentation is of the winds at the 1000mb level, roughly surface
level, although, at Santa Fe, we are already above the 1000mb level.  By
clicking on the word EARTH, you can get to higher levels of the atmosphere,
500 mb, which is the "steering level" of the atmosphere, and 200 mb, which
is the Jetstream level.   Notice that, at the jet stream level the flow is
split over Europe, but is unified over the US.  The most intense weather
occurs often where a split flow comes together.  You can change the view
from a polar, to a "hemispheric" view by clicking on the Japanese or Chinese
words on the lower right.  

 

Neat, huh?

Click on 'earth' for controls/options and about.  You probably found this
already.
