Satellite View of The Gulf Stream
Ocean currents affect air temperature. This special map shows a satellite view of the warm Gulf Stream(orange and yellow) coming around the tip of Florida and continuing north along the continental coastline. The Gulf Stream is a powerful current that originates in the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. It influences the climate of the east coast of North America from Florida to Newfoundland, and the west coast of Europe.

The blue color is cold arctic water coming down from the north.

How do you think these ocean currents will affect spring's arrival in the tulip test garden?
