LD3: Weather

Here is my third episode of Live and Direct. This one clocks in at 45:18 long, and 41.5MB big.

This show is about weather, specifically of the man-made variety.

Here's the playlist of songs:
  • They Might Be Giants - The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas
  • The Weather Girls - It's Raining Men
  • Little Fluffy Clouds - The Orb


Here are some pictures demonstrating atmospheric phenomena that most people would agree are beyond the common understanding of meteorology:
  • holes punched out of clouds:

  • geometric cloud patterns:

  • wave fronts in existing clouds made by scalar weather manipulation (clouds aren't supposed to have r-r-r-ridges):

  • "boiling sky/boiling clouds" - I saw this phenomenon, along with many other people, at the 2005 Common Ground fair in Unity, ME. Check out my gallery of weird weather from 9/25/05. Regretfully those pictures are terribly overexposed, but I have increased the contrast so you might be able to see the "artificial domes" in the cloud bottoms that fair attendees saw that day. Compare the relatively normal clouds in the first picture (taken at about 12:30pm) with the rest of the pictures (taken roughly two hours later).

I talked about a number of web sites and people in the show, and here are links to some of them:


Once again, thanks for listening to my show. I welcome any feedback you have. Keep looking up and don't lose your sense of wonder. Also, feel free to send me pictures of strange weather phenomena that you have witnessed. As Lao Tzu said, "The master observes the world, but trusts his inner vision."
