- StealthMonkey, on 12/01/2007, -0/+11Yes, you are the only one. And why are you typing? Who said you could put your bong down?
- cmatteson, on 12/01/2007, -4/+15Not to sound like one of those "conspiracy theory people", but I remember the day after 9/11, I saw some odd stuff in the sky in the Metro Detroit area. I came out of my home to go to work, and I looked up at the clear blue sky day, and there were three ring-like clouds directly overhead. It looked like a plane contrail as if it had flown and done a complete 360 circle. And there were three of them side by side in the sky. I remember pointing it out to my wife and just shrugging and saying, "hmmm, that's interesting". So folks, I'm not saying anything other than the picture here reminded me of that day somewhat. I don't believe in UFO's, I am not into trying to interpret what it was, it was just something interesting. So go easy if you're gonna give sassy replies...lol.
- Damian91, on 12/01/2007, -0/+10Please don't tell me this guy just spoiled the movie for me..
- saifatlast, on 12/01/2007, -0/+9Thank you, o conferrer of cheezburgurs.
- Torpov, on 12/01/2007, -2/+11Could it have been fighters just doing circles during patrol?
- cmatteson, on 12/01/2007, -0/+9That's what I thought, because I know all planes were grounded at that point...the only odd thing was there were no contrails leading up to or out of the circles...that's what had me so puzzled. But I'll just chalk it up to a really cool sight.
- superyounan1, on 12/01/2007, -1/+9thats what happens when a giant invisible ufo flies through the clouds. the ufos increase their energy level until they're not visible in our visual spectrum.
duuuuh - panteradactyl, on 12/01/2007, -0/+7No
- 2shae, on 12/02/2007, -0/+7a cloaked UFO ? :P
- mrASSMAN, on 12/01/2007, -2/+8Wow.. you must've read the page or something..
"How does the hole occur in the clouds ? - The puffy clouds were likely composed of ice crystals and very small super-cooled liquid water droplets. Studies have shown that very small supercooled liquid water droplets can exist well below freezing (as low as -40 degrees (C, or Centrigrade) ). The temperature in the cloud layer was around -24 deg (C) at the time of occurrence. Sometimes...when ice and the supercooled liquid droplets coexist within a cloud...a process occurs whereby ice crystals grow at the expense of the droplets. If the mixed cloud is agitated...the supercooled droplets freeze instantaneously. It is understood through microphysical arguments that water vapor must evaporate from the surrounding supercooled droplets and flow towards the ice crystals. This would start a cycle whereby newly formed ice crystals cause the surrounding droplet to evaporate...resulting in a circular form void of clouds with a mass of crystals in the center. Many photos taken that day seem to represent this process.
What caused the disturbance to begin ? One possible explanation is a jet plane. Visible satellite imagery that day suggested several "hole punch" clouds over both southern Mississippi and Alabama. These coincided with jet contrails. Click here and you will see a photo of "hole punch" clouds taken in Australia with an airplane contrail nearby. An airplane passing through the mixed cloud layer while ascending or descending would likely disrupt the delicate coexistence between the ice crystals and the supercooled liquid water droplets. A second possible explanation is that small scale atmospheric vertical motions (both up and down) related to the jet stream brought ice crystals downward into the moist cloud layer, thus effectively 'setting off' the cyclic process described above. " - SeethisPass, on 12/02/2007, -0/+5It's probably HAARP doing whatever they want to our atmosphere as usual, tinkering with the workings of the planet as if they had every right to do so.
It's a good thing they have perfect judgment and can't fail./sarcasm. - vinwal, on 12/02/2007, -0/+4HAARP
- mr5150, on 12/01/2007, -4/+8The Flying Spaghetti Monster’s portal to his throne in heaven!.................solved!
- DontEatTheFish, on 12/02/2007, -1/+5im sorry the correct response is "Fail."
- bluetytanium, on 12/01/2007, -2/+5FALCON PUNCH
- SeethisPass, on 12/01/2007, -1/+4. They seem punched downward from above. The ice crystals that are invariably found in the center of the circular hole indicates that colder air from above the cloud froze the ambient air when the cold air caused a sudden downward force. They always have a similar icy center. http://images.google.com/images?gbv=2&svnum=10&hl= ...
- judicar, on 12/01/2007, -3/+6Give it a day or so for prisonplanet.com to pick it up, article will likely involve chemtrails, black helicopters and somehow this will prove Osama is hiding Cheney's broom closet.
- clokwise, on 12/02/2007, -0/+3These circular non-cloud formations have been showing up on weather radar for several years. There are some websites which have documented and kept track of their appearances over the years and have concluded it's some result of US government weather control experiments. Don't have those site links handy tho.
- SeethisPass, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2Most likely, though I've read some cover story about it being a normal kind of cloud. I bet there are no old pictures like that.and no early reports from decades ago or more
They would have been seen as some sort of sign from God.. - hadak, on 12/01/2007, -4/+6http://cdn.ugoto.com/pictures/the_goatse_cloud_for ...
- aduzik, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2Yeah, I know, the reflections are all wrong... wait...
- bremstrong, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2Yeah, from 200 feet to three miles across.
- KingBunny, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2Doesn't it remind you of something? I don't know what. It's like it's on the tip of my mind.
- BrapAllgood, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2HAARP.
- deadsenator, on 12/02/2007, -1/+3Nobody has suggested that the planes may be seeding the atmosphere with a mind control agent, yet. What is wrong with you people? I expect more from diggers. Maybe you've been caught under the cloud.
[sniff-sniff] "Wow, all of a sudden, I want Giuliani to win the Whitehouse. Weird." - Myztry, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2One particularly hot rising fart, and the world gets all excited.
- doublsh0t, on 12/01/2007, -3/+5it was from a UFO!
- SeethisPass, on 12/02/2007, -0/+2Oh, it comes from a few other places.too. If this url works, ( many get truncated here) it will show a variety.
http://images.google.com/images?gbv=2&svnum=10&hl= ... - gak001, on 12/02/2007, -1/+2Clever... could you have made that sound any whinier?
- inactive, on 12/02/2007, -1/+2Jesus Christ, I think reading this thread has dropped my IQ a few points.
- BossKey, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1"It's rare, but very common." - Dr. Tiki
- RobsaysHello, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1"goatse again" followed by a curious sense of loss and shame.
- SeethisPass, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1No, this one is yours.
http://www.guzer.com/pictures/finger_cloud.jpg - DesuKN, on 12/02/2007, -1/+2Some say it was a warning.
Some say it was a sign - SeethisPass, on 12/03/2007, -0/+1They are called hole punch clouds.
- Bing11, on 12/04/2007, -0/+1Buried for equating something stupid to the ethnic cleansing of millions of innocent people.
- Goobernutz, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1I ***** love turtles
- DDRSkata, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1It's a tangent universe collapsing. Hasn't anyone seen Donnie Darko?
- mathmanjeffy, on 12/02/2007, -0/+1Or that you've eaten them all already.
