(GZ had posted that the ozone hole had gone away... I was posting to him in support of my earlier post that although the increase in ozone depletion has lately slowed or halted... the holes themselves would take a longer time to vanish.) Since you commented though.... Re: "there is always a hole over Antarctica." I would say... no, there is no evidence I've ever seen that the ozone hole was 'always' there.... "It is from centrifugal force of the spinning earth." That is ONE of the factors that allows the hole to form (little inflow from other atmospheric areas because of, as you note, the centrifugal forces at play). But, without the catalytic effect from chlorofluorocarbons, there would not be a sustained ozone hole... ceuterus paribus.
