Hi,
I was driving home tonight by the light of the nearly full moon, and piles of low cumuliform clouds swirled around the stars. Unusual for this time of year, especially here in Colorado. I started to wonder: does the moon affect the weather? If so, how? I have heard that it's more likely to rain during certain phases, and I've noticed in my own backyard that it tends to be cloudier during the first quarter than any other time. Does its gravity affect the bouyancy of warm air? Is it a myth? Or merely something which we have recognized but don't really understand? |

Is this a troll?
Forgive me; I don't know what that is. Mkay, I just researched trolling a bit, and now I can safely say, no, it's not. It's an honest question from a beginning weather student. |

It's an honest question from a beginning weather student. If Mr Hanky; doubtful, that's good enough for me. Ive been posting about the Lunar effect for years. To no avail I might add, which puts me in the same place Newton and Whittle were at one time in their lives. Basically all geophysics works in harmony with the way the three body problem resolves. Imagine a pendulum 1/80th the size of the planet vibrating around it's support. Any changes in the way that things swing is going to cause a smaller change on the planet. Forget all you may have heard about earthquakes and global warming and even Relativity. This is the cutting edge of future planetary research on here and in the rest of the universe. What my precepts were about were just a list of the things I have come up with so far. Can you get me a fairly comprehensive list of powerful tornadic activity? I will show you something suprising. Or not as the case may be. |

Or not as the case may be. "Every time there was some weather somewhere on Earth, the moon was never more than a quarter million miles away." Sounds like the fellow in California a few years ago that proved conclusively that all earthquakes occur within two weeks of the full moon... ;^) |

Without intending to contribute anything to anything worth anything as is your style, your attempt at subtle humour worthy of anyone likely to vote for a chimp, has uncovered a valid point. Needless to say I am not going to explain it to you. |
