If you've got an android phone, download weatherbomb.

The nullschool site is very awesome, we were especially interested in it when we had a category 5 tropical cyclone bearing down upon where we were staying in Feb.

It's doing 113 knots (210 km/h) at the moment.  It's windy up there.

Almost back.  Around the world in 14 days - not bad.

 

 

Might just skim up off the E coast of SI of NZ, then head around the world again.

After more than 40 days, it's still maintaining altitude (110,000 ft), but hasn't been going anywhere for a week or two.  Kind of stuck in the stratospheric doldums.
