The theory I have been developing over the past year finds compelling evidence that properties of the complex substance known as precipitable water (PW) have a dominating role in the causation of everyday temperature changes that occur on all planetary surfaces outside of the tropical belt. The theory goes on to explain the basic mechanisms that are involved in production of the changes that occur. I don’t believe there is anything comparable to be found in the literature of any of the sciences, which makes it highly unorthodox. Credibility depends on the quality of the evidence. Over the last few days I have posted a considerable amount of evidence relevant to Earth’s two polar zones. Today I need to shorten the letter a little, but can still show how the same relationship plays out on a broad scale in the middle latitudes. We are faced with a very extensive strong cold anomaly in the center of North America today. Continental Europe is partly neutral and otherwise on the moderately warm side. Non-tropical Asia is split into two substantial anomalies, one warm and one cold, sharply divided by a long sloping line. All of these anomalies are readily associated with shadings in the first map indicating higher or lower total content of PW in the atmosphere. The long sloping line is right where it belongs, and more evidence just like it can be found in several other places. You can also get another good look at the strong PW penetrations in the highest parts of the northern polar zone and their relative absence in the same latitudes in the south, producing another two anomaly opposites.
