http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2005/12/06/police-051206.html WOW i had no idea people did stuff like this. i for one have always known what 911 is for, i don't know what's wrong with those other people.

An interesting story that relates to weather modification conspiracy theories. http://www.awra.us/gallery-jan05.htm

I'm a physics major in Alaska, where it's not uncommon to have temperatures of -40. Are there any interesting experiments or designs that I can do in my freetime that are convenient because of the cold weather? I remember learning briefly about gradients being a source of power. If...

Hi, does anyone know whether weather warfare is just plain conspiritorial theory or covert fact. Genuinely interested in finding out more.

http://www.enterprisemission.com/weblog/weblog.htm This is one of the best sources I've come across for analysis that isn't riddled with excessive exclamation points and absurd conspiracy conclusions :rolleyes: . Discuss. I am halfway through so far.

I wanted to check the weather but i put my zip code into the stock quote section. :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

Reaaaaaaly hot weather... I just checked the http://www.crh.noaa.gov/forecasts/PAZ068.php?warncounty=PAC091&city=Norristown for tonight (pic attached for if the link has been fixed). Good thing I have air conditioning.

So what the heck? I get down to Chihuahua (4 hours south of El Paso) and they have their first two rainy days of the year. Real rain - the kind with thunder and lightning and hail (see pic). Meanwhile Seattle is having what passes for a heat wave in the pacific northwest. Damnit, Seattle, I...

...a hurricane with hydrogen bombs? Also,Ivan said that Eastland has calculated for weather to be controlled is needed energy of 100 gigawatts-youre underestimating the power of an hurricane,and weather system: Here is what I've been found on this subject: They tried to influence hurricane...

Okay, I was just on the phone with a customer while glancing at the local 12 o-clock news. I looked up and saw...oh, Alice Cooper doing the weather report... :rolleyes: ...WHAT! . I guess he was visiting Portland...dunno. I completely froze only to realize a few moments later that the customer...

Why/how does weather affect telecommunications? The photons in radio waves can pass through matter, such as human bodies and concrete, but they seem to be affected by weather conditions. Why is this, or is my reasoning flawed?

I am writing a pro/con essay about controlling the weather in my 10th grade ELA II class. Anyone know anything about this, or where I can find some info on it?

I'm studying interference and optics at the moment - can anyone explain why in hot weather dry streets can appear to be wet? Thanks :smile:

Heres the scenario there was a pool of liquid on the table it was one of those hot days when the air is uncomfortable and sticky, TASK plan experiment to find out weather differences in relative humidity influences how much water collects on the outside of a metal can. WHat is the best...

I read a couple of years ago, where the "space weather", was going to be controlled for the protection of satellites. At the time, I was appalled at the audacity of that kind of move, when "Space Weather", is so poorly understood. Today I was reading about gamma rays created by the Earth linked...

i just bought a telescope and i am in Canada it iz really cold outside and i want to take it outside to look at the stars but someone told me that moisture would get stuck in the lens and it would be ruined can somebody tell me if this is true personally i don't think it would but i don't want...

all sorts of stuff worth looking through http://www.weather-photography.com/links.php#misc

I have a neat idea that has been modified. It may work. What if you used such a spacecraft in Geo. orbit to block out the suns ionizing radiation? Would this tend to cool SSTs thus limiting a hurricane or a tornados power? A "Solar Sail" could also work in this application. But, his...

Can anyone shed any light on future weather patterns for the uk In our local paper it is reported that we may be in for the coldest winter since records began, is this due to the ice caps melting, or is it a local phenomena?

This isn't much to offer as a thread, but this weather site -- http://www.wunderground.com -- has detailed info, and many things to explore. I found it because my wife asks me every morning what the weather is going to be so she can figure out what to wear to work. Around here there a lots of...

This darn spyware has caused my computer to boot 40% slower. Is there any effective product for removing Weather Bug to the roots, without harming my computer?

The winds to day are mainly caused by a moon-sun constellation. You can see it if you're closer to the north pool then to the south.

i wasnt sure where to post this... but I've been really curious about this since i am always the one that isn't cold... I was wondering if the animals that live in cold weather are hotblooded or cold blooded... like penguins for example and if there really is a pattern. also i was...

The following is from http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=12342 When the Army Owns the Weather By Bob Fitrakis, Columbus Alive February 5, 2002 Humans have long sought to control the weather. Early people learned how to make fire and modify their micro-environments; rain...

A 507kg weather balloon is designed to lift a 4220kg package. What volume should the balloon have after being filled with helium at STP in order that the total load can be lifted. I have no idea how to start this problem...

I find it interesting how the Earth tilts only a few degrees and the weather changes so dramatically. Question: How far fetched would it be to think that the Earths weather system remains a stationary shell and the Earth simply rotates underneath it. To put it another way, the weather "shell"...

You launch a group of helium filled spherical weather balloons which have been painted with a thin layer of signal reflecting paint. the first balloon requires 2.75 liters of paint the second balloon you launch is bigger it's diameter is bigger by a factor of 2.75 how much paint will be needed...

"FREAK weather conditions stretching from France to the United States have caused widespread destruction, claimed lives and injured dozens of people. In Europe, the heatwave currently being experienced across the continent has caused parts of glaciers to melt in the Alps and resulted in...
