Chemtrails nonsense

Ah... 'just asking questions', eh? :rolleyes:

So, why would you not expect condensation at that altitude? What's your experience with atmospheric science?
What kind of additives would be used to keep condensation trails in the air for longer?
And why would these substances be added?

I predict your response will be along the lines of "I don't know, but it sure is suspicious though, isn't it?"

Because when it's a 125 degrees with a heat index, 5000 feet isn't going to be that much cooler here in the southeast.

I'm not convinced one way or the other but I think it has something to do with global warming if it's happening at all. I never saw as many of these in Mobile, Al. when I lived there, or in Eugene, Oregon.

How do you know how high they are? Pretty hard to judge that kind of distance with the human eye.

My brother was an air traffic controller on the Nimitz, I'm going by what he says.

Good grief. I can dredge up contrails at 20 feet. Yes you read that right. 20 frakkin' feet. Please tell me that you have not bought the "diamond pattern" BS as well? Please?

ETA: Oh and amusingly, you think that air pressure, temperature and humidity is continuous vertically above your head, for reasons nobody can say.

Next we know you will be spraying vinegar in your back yard. Do you think that works to disperse "chem-trails"? From the ground? To 40,000 feet?

No, but I don't think 5000 feet is going to be that drastically different from the ground temp in July or August in Columbia, SC. So for those of you coming for the eclipse you better prepare for extreme heat when you get here. Hopefully we won't get that afternoon shower that will spoil the viewing.

Why? That's almost a mile high, you don't think this is significant?

The weather at the base of mountains lower than that can be significantly different than the summit.

Today, It's 54 degrees at the summit of Mt Washington, It's 75 at it's base. That's only 4000 feet difference. Should you pack a sweater or do you think it should be OK with what you got at the base?

Please, this is not fog in the morning. This is smoke from a plane on a hot day.

Do you honestly believe that there is a difference between condensation and condensation? It's the same phenomenon. There's condensation on my toilet reservoir all the time. Stop trying to see sinister meaning in everyday, normal stuff.

Yeah hey what about that huge thermonuclear reactor that passes thru the sky each day - I'm sure the PTB are behind it!!!!!OMG

Thanks for adding science to my post. ;)

I have a chart I keep in my backpack to help me plan for this. Snow at elevation in the White Mountains is not unusual when it's tee-shirt weather in town.

Oh yeah I live at 1700 feet and a ski lodge is at 7,350 feet and it can be 75 on the valley floor and a blizzard blowing up there just a short drive away.
