Never heard of such a thing?! Anything related to the Bermuda Triangle mystery?
How cool is THAT!? Imagine how much energy that "storm" has... imagine how much electricity it could generate if we could tap into it...
I just saw the date. it's old news. why hasn't it been all over the news.
Probably because it's not a rare occurrence - this one is just big.
From the article:
The sea storms - which are better known as eddies - form bizarre whirl shaped shapes deep beneath the ocean's surface.
This counter-clockwise eddy is thought to have peeled off from the Agulhas Current, which flows along the southeastern coast of Africa and around the tip of South Africa.
Agulhas eddies - also called 'current rings' - tend to be among the largest in the world, transporting warm, salty water from the Indian Ocean to the South Atlantic.
It looks like Van Goh's ear. The artist in me.
