NH is only affected because the characters were living up north...so no sense of showing the southern hemisphere...also, the storms are cold-core and cold-core systems do have eyes here and there...aka Polar Low...wxwatcher91 wrote:CronkPSU wrote:Sadly, I have watched that movie too many times...one question I do have from it is why is only the northern hemisphere affected?
I ask that and also why they are warm-core? shouldnt they be cold core systems (without the eye)
cau you imagine this!

I don't completely agree Brunota. One reason for using Northern Hemisphere as affected area is that there are many articles based on research by scientists that talk of England, Europe, and North America's climate cooling were the changes in salinity to happen and slow down the conveyor belt. In one article I have read they do say they are not sure to what degree the weather would cool but that it would cool none the less. Because there have been significant changes in the strength of the conveyor belt they have a system of buoys that strictly track the strength of it. The following links have interesting info.
