@Paulos_the_fog Oh! Translate English to German with Google, and back again. So much fun!

ps. these are 'earthquakes of the sky' made more violent by the cold. We are back to the 70's, so a good physics hypothesis is that we'll see more of these, and the ozone holes will get larger, and my pipes will freeze. :)

@Paulos_the_fog Ha, then you won't be writing the next article on how a phone is as good as a $10K arrangement. :) It's all friendly here, no need to shout.

@askquantum I think it was more the concept of anonymous input. It allowed Poots to attack the West.

@tongutay I love all the snow pictures, but a general location would be nice. Thank you.

@homomorfismo@mastodon.social The physics of how heat rises from the surface of the Earth depends on the Rayleigh number. A low number means that the air is 'thick' and the heat flow is all infra-red radiation, like Venus. Then we have greenhouse gases which interfere with the radiation. If the R number is large, then the heat flow is all convection. In the 70's there were large studies on this, to look at clear air convection cells. No funding for this now. The only hints of violent clear air convection cells come from jets who hit them.

Violent Clear air convection. It's not studied any more, since it can't exist in a greenhouse gas situation.

@seislologist Wow, that's high, almost chimney-breaking level. Good thing they are extension.

Hudson Bay closes up for the winter. We had a heat vortex for the last month, and now the cold air just goes over it.

Attention ! @KirkwoodLab and I are excited to be hosting a session at in (May 8-12) on Mighty as . Abstract submissions for posters and oral presentations are now open

Don’t worry, we’ll remind you in the New Year. You have until *January 27* to apply.

I think the hardest part about becoming an adult might be realizing that everyone is always wrong about everything.
