Ah, first the "Spring Predictably Barrier" falls.  Now the relative ocean temperature is giving way.  What next, Arctic influence on surface wind dynamics?  How long until the people standing on and surfing the coastal zone of the PNW are listened to?  Let alone the mariners.  I'm glad your eyes are finally tying into what we've seen for generations.  Take a few more trips out of your labs, it will serve you well.

PS. Have the sea stars of the PNW mad a comeback yet?
