USCG RS Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Blocked jet streams behave in a very similar way to traffic jams, with movement slowing when multiple “highways” converge. This can take place due to the jet stream interacting with geographic features such as mountains and coastlines.The simplicity of the traffic analogy is matched by the simplicity of computations underpinning it, which Dr Huang said capture the essence of the phenomenon with “a much less complicated system”. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/jet-stream-traffic-jams-mysterious-deadly-scientists-weather-patterns-earth-a8367701.html?amp&utm_term=Autofeed&utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter&__twitter_impression=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
