@TheOldGuy I agree. I find the video takes a step down from the usual bullshit.
@WyWyWa Oh God, what sort of winter now?
#physics #weather **California storms again** I've been waiting for this. One of the benefits of using physics. We are waiting for Arctic blasts to push down the plumes to California. This is now happening. After this series, even the guard will say the drought is over. :) I think this forecast is 80%.
They should also know that this may be the pattern for next year, as well.
@freemo No, goats are sheep after a haircut.
**A strange world** In the idyllic world of Canada, we have a province which shall not be named. They have done a lot of things that others might call racist, and they are noted for sticking together, provided that is 'pure wool' or 'old stock'. The slightest mention that they are racist yields tremendous 'methinks they doth protest too much'. That is our world. And they don't read this, so, ... whew. You can live a happy life ignoring them... ps. I never said anything.
#physics #weather **First chart shows world temps down** This continues on a theme from 2016. We are in a big dive. The physics is showing that our 'heat engines' of the ocean tropical belts are turned off. We are all living on residual heat and that is leaving us, like camping in a thin sleeping bag.
@zleap So, who's sillier? UK or France?
@johnefrancis I really blame that darn butterfly for all this 'social weather talk'. Because of that, everybody goes with infinitely tiny influences dominating the world's energy systems.... :(
#physics #weather **Fart in the wind** The fart does not change the course of the wind. That's the same with 'polar vortex' explanations that are constantly spewing on the media. The true polar vortex is up by the stratosphere, in near-vacuum conditions. It cannot do anything to surface winds. And the jet stream is an effect, like a shadow. However, we all love a good story....
The physics predicted all this, but lets keep putting up windmills to run electric cars...
@darryl And for the movie maker, they're cheap....
#physics #weather **Snowflakes 2** They'll never do the physics for this, because it conflicts with the Nasa dogma. They destroyed their atmosphere chamber because it showed that their ozone dogma was false. They have a world monopoly on atmospheric physics, and have chosen to eliminate all of it. Can we expect anybody to pick it up? Nope...
Anyway, had they a chamber, we could design experiments on how snowflakes form. I have come up with a hypothesis and thought experiments. It would be fun....
@MrsDi @edutooters I think it's because the first movers are the "brights' who are technical. Then, the ruthless tycoons move in. The brights get slaughtered. However, in this case, MS is pouring billions at a bright. No chance. AI has a problem in that it takes a year to train it on last year's data. Someone has to figure out how to feed it modern data, which conflicts with older data. I suspect we have a scaling problem.
@zleap The poor twit moderators are surviving on rats caught in the offices. Sad..
Descended from Unix freaks, I evolved to Linux. Some people might consider me old at 60+, but I'm suing the world to get my age down to 30.
I have a blog https://ontario-geofish.blogspot.com/
and it is read by 8 people. My formal education is in an extinct branch of science called geophysics. Since there was no money in it, I went to engineering. I've done tunnels, radwaste thingies, etc.
