Default We start work on Western Europe storm

No you won't

You've probably convinced yourself you can

In the USA, Art Bell and George Noory have also claimed to have done
'weather' experiments using the power of thought

Art Bell doesn't want to do it anymore, because of potential nasty side
effects... well according to him anyway

The weather doesn't have free thought like a person

No, the weather Gods did not target Florida on purpose last summer


Wasn't it NASA that seriously looked into "wishing" a meteorite away back
in the early 70's?

It was a project that looked into different ways of eliminating the threat
of a large strike.

Tomorrow (Feb. 11) 05:30 through 06:00 GMT our group will work on
weakening of the significant storm expected to affect Great Britain,
Scandinavia and Western Europe.


I am very surprised at members of the group. Do you really mean that no one
had heard of the Siberian pipeline?

Oil production has decreased recently so the redundant capacity of the
supply system is being used to transfer air in huge quantities from the
massive Siberian High to Western Europe to help fill up the Lows.

There is particular engineering problem that is proving a little tricky to
overcome. Coriolis comes into play here, so the air in the pipe tends to
try to move to the right. Consequently, the right (Northern) side of the
pipes are getting worn rather too quickly. Most of the wear comes from
impurities in the air (grit and other microscopic particles) and early
research suggests more thorough filtration of the air leaving Siberian will
go a long way to overcoming this particular problem.

Jack, I promised last night not to comment on British weather nor British
Royalty nor habits nor traditions nor other sensitive items. But ermmmm...
just wondering... are you sure you're okay???

I had some slightly incorrect information earlier.

It is redundant GAS pipelines that are being used for this purpose, not old
OIL pipes.
Pretty obvious really - the oil ones are bound to be sticky and produce too
much friction.

Sorry for that error.

Jack
