Fog Bank, July 9, 2012


Hello, Weather Brains listeners, this is the Fog Bank.  I'm Dave Phillips, skydaver on Twitter.  My Google+ link should be available over on the right, too.

The first three picks are all related to the June 29th Derecho.

First, a GOES-East satellite loop

The second pick is from NOAA Weather Partners with a radar composite loop of the event.

And third, Accuweather's Jesse Ferrell posted a summation of Derecho articles on The WeatherMatrix blog

Chuck Prevatte sent an article from FoxBusiness channel on five graduate degrees that don't pay off.

Earth Science Picture of the Day comes through with another great cloud photo

Just as a bonus, I thought I'd throw in some pictures that a crewmate took from our ship while we were in the North Atlantic, somewhere in the GUIK gap, in the late summer, 1979 (maybe 1980)

If you read this, let me know that you saw the ship pictures.

Thanks for listening, Skydaver out!
