It’s tough to show in three dimensions. It would be possible to see it in the sudden(ish) drop in surface temperature, but I haven’t been thrilled with any 3D viz I’ve seen.

This should look even more interesting during fall overturn in the central basin - looks like it doesn’t need much more surface cooling to go fully mixed.

In a few days the south shore of Lake Ontario went cold. One week of surface currents, hour by hour, 16 to 23 September 2026, colored by water temperature. Watch cold water well up along the New York shore.

Lake Michigan never sits still. One week of its surface currents, hour by hour, 16 to 23 September 2026, colored by water temperature. Watch cold water well up along the Michigan shore and curl out into the warmer lake.

A swat of beach and grass in the foreground, then Lake Huron looking a bit choppy, then a moderate blue sky with puffy clouds.

Wide-angle coastal photograph at sunset showing bright yellow evening-primrose wildflowers growing along a grey rocky riprap shore in the foreground. The rocky shoreline curves from the left towards a calm, dark blue body of water, leading to a vibrant orange sunset on the horizon. High wispy cirrus clouds stretch across a blue sky, and a distant sailboat rests on the water near a far breakwater

Good news: the unexplained stop-work order on the Brandon Road barrier was lifted yesterday (Sep. 2) - important given recent finding of juvenile silver carp only 80 mi from Lake Michigan www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...

Toad woke up. “Drat!” he said. “This house is a mess. I have so much work to do.” Frog looked through the window. “Toad, you are right,” said Frog. “It is a mess.” Toad pulled the covers over his head.

Toad hides in bed from the mess of his house, while Frog looks on.
