High warm humidity above ocean, rising, cooling, to form clouds on top. All we have are better and better approximations. To get it almost exact, is the challenge.

In fact, Erin was closest to NYC, and at its largest size, on 9/11 itself. But the TV news networks had little reporting on this hurricane. Contrary to Erin, however, Hurricane Katrina had virtually 24 hour coverage, even before it hit land. Interestingly, Erin was stronger than Katrina the day before 9/11. So why didn’t the media cover Erin, say, on September 10? The astronauts in the space station commented on the WTC smoke plume, but made no mention of the monstrous hurricane next to it. How come? Those interested in learning the secret between hurricanes and Tesla Coils should see Dr Judy Wood’s new paper “9/11 Weather Anomalies and Field Effects”. She presents evidence suggesting Erin was part of the mechanism used to turn the Twin Towers to dust. The paper is chock full of photos and analysis and is highly recommended: http://drjudywood.com/articles/erin Not many know that a major hurricane – Hurricane Erin – was in the Atlantic Ocean in September of 2001.

Callahan, one of our best and most frequent contributors: The good news is that Dolly, in all likelihood, won't make it too far into the hurricane scale -- now forecast as a weak Category One on landfall tomorrow. Landfall could be as early as 9AM Wednesday. Water temps in that part of the Gulf of Mexico are a bit lower than elsewhere -- the charts I saw Tuesday read 83 or 84 degrees Fahrenheit near the South Texas coastline. And now, the disclaimer: I studied Journalism in school, I'm not a Meteorologist, I'm just the Management Weasel here who supervises the Meteorologists. But the one thing I've learned from our talented and learned staff is that Meteorologists need to cover their butts(at least until we totally control the weather). So keep an eye on Dolly tomorrow. If you click on the NHC link above (or www.nhc.noaa.gov you'll be taken to the most recent update. As far as the cloud question you've asked, I'd leave it to the real meteorologists. I know it doesn't apply in a cyclonic storm like Dolly. If you go to NASA's "Modis" gallery of satellite photos, you'll see some amazing shots of wave-like cloud formations Peter Dykstra For S.

I wish the residents of the affected areas much safety. Peter, aside from the hurricane..I recently read an article about clouds acting in the fashion of very large waves (almost like very large/high rippled ocean waves above the earth)....curious as to why that happens (i'm definately not one to know much about meterology but willing to learn)...
