Boise sky

[slomo]

What do you make of this?<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.coasttocoastam.com/gen/page1258.html">www.coasttocoastam.com/gen/page1258.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>I was driving near the Boise Air Terminal early yesterday afternoon (January 4, 2006). It had been raining in Boise for the past 4 days and yesterday the clouds began to thin. I caught sight of something strange coming over the horizon from the West and pulled over to watch it. As it drifted closer, I saw that it was shaped something like a snake slithering through the sky. I snapped a photo of it with my Nikon Coolpix 7000 digital camera.<br><br>Then, I turned around and saw another anomaly in the sky toward the East. I changed locations so that I could get a better picture of it. It looked like the underside of a horseshoe crab. I have no explanation for either of these phenomena. <br><br>[Thanks to Kevin at <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.cryptogon.com/">www.cryptogon.com/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> for pointing this out] <p></p><i></i>

People call them 'Hole Punch Clouds'. HAARP often gets touted as the responsible agent, but if you look closely you can see that it's an interaction between a contrail and the cirrocumulus around it. The contrail leaves a stream of frozen exhaust behind it which can trigger a burst of freezing in the surrounding cloud. The frozen material is much heavier, and falls rapidly, making the odd looking feathery structure you see in these images. In just about every single image you'll come across of these, you'll find a contrail:<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://newtonnjd.net/extra/29Dec05/comp.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br>A more intellegent way of saying the same thing:<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Mixing of moist environmental air and vapor-depleted contrail air produced localized regions of supersaturation along the contrail periphery, where crystals grew to several hundred microns at about 0.1 &#956;m s-1. These particles could then fall from the contrail into the vapor-rich, undepleted, supersaturated environment below. As heavier crystals left the contrail, others moved into the regions of ice supersaturation.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/nph-bib_query?bibcode=1998GeoRL..25.1335H&db_key=AST&data_type=HTML&format=">Link</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>This is what it looks like from orbit:<br><br>http://rsd.gsfc.nasa.gov/goes/pub/goes/QTmovies/970510.florida.mov<br><br>Here's one in it's early stage I took a few months ago:<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://sickle666.com/Chem/mine/In%20the%20Pink/22.jpg"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

Great orbit pic. Just wanted to say that. By the way, we here in California have been hit pretty hard this week with chemical/aerosol agents. It's been pretty bad since about mid October. Today, strangely, it is completely clear with NO activity. I can count on one hand the days that have had absolutely no activity. <p></p><i></i>

Driving to work this morning I was stunned by the con/chem trails over San Jose. There seemed to be so many that it seemd impossible that so many aircraft could have cris crossed the sky in such a short space of time - assuming that is, as I do, that these trails last an hour or so... <br><br>[BTW, I get the same view of land and sky each morning as I drive down to the freeway and this must have really stood out to gain my attention and still be with me now.] <p></p><i></i>

Reallllly bad down here in SO Cal as well. It was not your normal chemtrail activity. There was way too much that appeared from thin air to make much sense. I say everyone on the West Coast should be paying friggin attention and looking up. <p></p><i></i>
