- The red blotch above Australia and New Guinea in this
- satellite image, released last week, represents the ocean's
- hottest water, at 30 degrees C (86 degrees F). That's unusually
- steamy, and it may be partly a result of the global warming that
- scientists think is on its way. The good news: NASA reports that
- the ozone hole feared over northern latitudes this spring never
- showed up, but only because the winter was warmer than usual.
- A cooler season next year, which is quite possible, and goodbye
- ozone.
