Are kids today so Vine-brained they don't understand headline syntax? The Weddell Sea just north of Antarctica.

We all probably understood that's what they meant but it's funny and not super clear. "The Weddell Sea just north of Antarctica." or "The Weddell Sea near Antarctica." work much better.

"off the coast of" is the phrasing I would have used. I've honestly never heard of the Weddell sea until just now.
