How did you get the air to turn blue? And why is it black around the earth? Is the sun not out in space at that time?
I would stay but it's 6:34 pm. One hour and four minutes past my bed time. Don't tell my mom. Ahhhhhhhh the joys of working day and night getting the same pay as a woman. What a rip!
Chop!?! What cha talking about? thats from the NOAA site, you don't think our gov't would fake pictures and lie to us do you?
Of course not!! But, sticking with the theme of the site, every pic is a photchop.....prayers are with those in the path of the storm...
Check out: http://www.intellicast.com/Local/USNationalWide.asp?loc=usa&seg=LocalWeather&prodgrp=SevereWeather&product=RadarSummary&prodnav=none&pid=none Shows the USA radar summary with could top heights in hundreds of feet (ie: "500" is 50,000 feet). If I remember right, Charley had tops of about 30,000 feet as it came onshore - about the height of an average summer thundershower. Big summer storms sometimes get to 65,000 feet - and believe me, there is a difference depending on how high the tops go. Hurricanes don't get their destructive power from the storm as much as the winds swirling around the extremely low pressure in the eye. Thanks for the photo!
LOL... this is what I was going to say. "That's definitely a fake. I can't believe renderings still look so crappy with all the modern technology. It definitely won't look like that when it arrives."
