Northeast Ohio Contrails (vanity)

[agrace]

I hesitate to start a thread like this...

My husband called me a little while ago to say that the sports guy on AM 1100 in Cleveland was breaking into Rush briefly to say that there are a ridiculous number of contrails over NE OH. My husband, who was driving at the time, said sure enough, dozens of them. Looking outside right now I can probably count at least 20 criss-crossing the sky. So anyway, the sports guy (Mike Trivisonno), who is doing his own show now, is spouting off about how "SOMETHING" must be going on, even though "officials" have told him that it's just prime atmospheric conditions that allow the contrails to be seen so well.

He's not buying it, is stirring up the listening audience, so how about some educated freepers tell me that in fact it is the atmosphere. I personally have never seen anything like it, and I don't own a single tin foil hat, I swear.

So when you're all out of the shower, any comments on this hugh and series event would be appreciated, thanks.

You aren't getting "sprayed" with "chemtrails".

No kidding. Like I said, I own no tin-foil hats. But it sounds like this guy on the radio just bought a whole bunch of stock in them.

I'm in Austin, TX, and just looked outside. There aren't ANY contrails here. You stole our contrails and I demand you send them back ASAP!

Reports on TAM of military air traffic being scrambled, planes going straight UP like rockets, somebody sent e-mail saying that nothing has taken off or landed at Hopkins since noon, activity reported throughout N.E. Ohio to to Michigan.

As far as the contrails, they do not appear to be in the normal air traffic corridors, and in a lot of cases they make grids and X's.

Listen live at WTAM or get the podcast tomorrow.

Update - "Airport thingie's fine" - direct quote from Allison. I guess the planes are flying.

Thanks.I was skeptical to begin with... I really think these boneheads at WTAM are causing a panic type situation.
If something were going on it would be out already...ratings must be down.

Wanna take a look here ?

East-West flights were at the right altitude to be making contrails. That's not so odd.

Didn't know that, thanks. (I never listen to him because he hates the Steelers.)

Contrails and U.N. prisons being built in out of the way places.. as re-education camps for republicans?..

Somebody just woke up from a coma.. evidently..
This stuff is soooooo old..

you know, that day in Nov when I saw them was just like today......plenty cold, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky

[Arrowhead1952]

I know one thing, the humidity here has been so low the past few days, I get shocked every time I touch metal door handles or other things. I've been taking my keys and discharging the static electricity before touching any metal.

I knew it... I JUST KNEW IT!

Shhh..... they're here....

First instincts are your friend.

It was me. I made a beer run to Michigan.
