Hey Kevin! A selfish question here, but getting married in Wilmington NC on September 17th. Think we'll see any more tropical storm/hurricane activity within the next 10-12 days on the Atlantic?

Congratulations! A little too early to say at this point but odds seem in your favor. Keep track here: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

It has just hailed but there is no storm in sight. It isn't even raining. How is this possible?

Asked by Irisj about 9 years ago

I'd need a little bit more information, including location and time. That said, if you think it was not hail there is something called "graupel". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graupel

When snow is forecast, how is it determined what the accumulation will be?

Asked by Richard Ferstandig over 7 years ago

Different computer forecast models will give guidance on the amount of liquid. Snow totals are variable based largely on the temperature profile of the atmosphere above the ground. A general rule is about 9-10 inches of snow per inch of liquid, variable based on several factors, including forecaster experience in the area. Great question.

Would it be possible to have 3 complete days of darkness in the Middle East? Unlike the very mortgage be very south areas where you can have full brightness 24 hours

Not sure I understand the question, Kyle.

How does cloud seeding work and what is the process for it

Asked by Juliana R about 7 years ago

Great question. All cloud drops form on a speck of something called a condensation nuclei, dust, smoke, sea salt, etc. The idea with seeding is to introduce these particles, often silver iodide, to encourage the water vapor in the air to condense into a cloud droplet and then merge with other drops to form rain. A lot of question as to if it works but there is enough evidence that people keep trying. Thanks!
