At the moment, the balloon is east of Franz Josef Land:
It looks like, at roughly the altitude of the balloon, that the circulation will either see it escape towards western Russia later today, or else get caught in westerly flow again that should see it get even closer to the North Pole than it did yesterday.
Even if it does escape the the south today, it seems it is likely, a day or so later, to get caught in a northerly flow that might take it straight back to the pole again!
Time will tell. Nice also to use this opportunity to check the performance of 14MHz reception, where I ended up at number 5 in the global rankings, but actually a joint 4th, just that WA2TP had no errlog:
