A look at http://grads.iges.org/pix/shemi.jet.html is well worth it at the
moment. The SH jet stream has split into two nearly concentric streams and
is in an awesome standing wave. Flick through the 6 days of prediction and
the double wave of the jet stream hardly moves. This is ...

Based on the Drake Equation, scientists say our galaxy holds as many
as 30 billion other earth-like planets.  NASA has laid on several
multi-million dollar missions to look for them.  Why?  Could the
answer be physics?  Could the law of entorpy be the reason?

The second issue of the Group for Earth Observation's Quarterly is
currently being printed and will be despatched to paid-up members

Some copies of the first issue are still available free of charge.

Nice severe-weather jet we're having over the US this week, aren't we?
Sucker swings in from way down low off Baja, below 30N, where you don't

G'day mates,

and volcanicity into it.

Anybody know if the tiny island creamed by Sudal's right-side eyewall
today puts out wx obs?

Is that possible to have live pics from Meteosat 8 on the web ?
I didn't find any URL ?
Thanks

I'm trying to figure out a formula that relates latitude/longitude
to GOES pixel size.  The nominal resolution is at the subsatellite
point.  Alas, I do not live there, so pixel resolution is degraded

Looking around the world today, rain features rather heavily with, in some

Thanks in advance
