Incorrect location of the South Atlantic TUTT
editThe following statement...
"In the South Atlantic, the TUTT extends from near the equator at the 75th meridian west east-southeast to 30N 15W, offshore the western coast of southern Africa."
...is incorrect in a couple of respects.
(1) If the TUTT axis extends ESE from the equator, then the ending location won't be north latitude as stated.
(2) If, as I suspect, the end location was meant to be stated as 30S 15W, then the descriptor ("offshore the western coast of southern Africa") is inaccurate. That point in is the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, approximately halfway between the coasts of South America (southern Brazil) and SW Africa (Namibia/South Africa).
Since I don't have the reference text handy, I'm unable to verify the correct location. Hopefully someone else can. Thanks. AJC3fromS2K (talk) 18:53, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
