Default Rainy day? Blame cosmic rays | The Register

Scientists have speculated for some time that cosmic rays could have an
effect on the weather, and now the experiment designed to test the idea
has begun collecting data.

The CLOUD experiment (which contrives to be short for Cosmics Leaving
OUtdoor Droplets) kicked off on Thursday last week, with a prototype
detector in a particle beam at CERN. It is, you will be surprised to
hear, the first time a particle detector has been used to investigate
the links between space and Earth weather.

Yeah, that's the ticket. Blame greenie policies for bankruptingCalifornia. More proof that the AGW Deniers are pathologicalpsychopaths and liars who are out of touch with reality.
