Is that a serious story?

 

I have another question:  If there is a cloud to ground lightening strike during a thundersnow storm, will the precipitation around the lightening strike hit the ground as rain?  I would assume so, if it's not vaporized.  So it might be snowing heavily, then lightening would hit a tree very close to you, and it might rain on you for a few seconds before snowing again.  Maybe?

I'm pretty sure that it'll be 33/rain IMBY so this question is irrelevant.

I would think that the snow would be turned to vapor almost immediately, I would doubt any rain would fall.

 

Yeah, I think right near the strike.  But the heat generated, while being intense near the bolt, would diminish away from the bolt so as to potentially melt  the snow without vaporizing.  But maybe not.

 

I'm pretty sure that it'll be 33/rain IMBY so this question is irrelevant.

 

Haha!  What, do you live in Wake Forest or something?  I'm pretty sure it's always 33 and rain there, and the models can't be trusted, and you'd rather have warm sunshine instead of cold rain and the TV mets are always hyping up storms, etc....

Rile News FAQ
 

Are your stories real?

Yes. If you believe fake news stories.
 

Are the people in your stories real?

If the story is about a public figure we are satirizing, most likely, but the other names are made up.
 

Any other words of advice?

These stories are meant to be satire. Sometimes there is a point we're trying to make, and sometimes we're just making a parody of stuff. It's supposed to be fun. Have a laugh and share it with your friends.

Was around Interlaken and got this great pic of the Jungfrau, Eiger, and Monch. Look at all that snow!

Here are the best webcam views of the Alps, all in one place. Beautiful pictures, great web design too. There are maps that show all the cameras, and the direction they are looking too... really cool site.

Rumor has it that the orignial Kirk and Spock (Shatner and my hero, Nimoy) may reunite in "Star Trek 3, the Search for Geritol".

 

Actually, Shatner looks really good for 83.

Good evening from Zermatt, Switzerland. Getting to see all the snow capped mountains here is amazing. Interestingly enough it might snow here Sunday night but I'll be in Interlaken by then! Really gets you ready for the winter season. I propose we all do a meetup in the Alps. 

These pictures were taken from the balcony of my room today which has a great view of the Matterhorn. 

 

These two were taken from the train going up to Zermatt. The first is a almost glacier type thing on top of one of the ridgelines. I guess techcnically it's a glacier? This was melting creating a nice waterfall which leads into the picture of the stream. This water was blueish green and clear, the cleanest looking water I have ever seen in my life. Only way to describe is that from 20 feet up I could see individual leaves floating in the water!

 

 

 

I'm soooo jealous  :P    Love the pictures! Keep them coming   ^_^

 

Speaking of clean air, I quit smoking four months ago.  Thank you for the assistance btw.  Are you there on business or pleasure?

Wooooo hooooooo! Congrats!  :thumbsup:     I quit just over a month ago  :D  

 

No Carolina blue sky over Dowdy Ficklen today instead it was painted purple

 

 

That is a beautiful sky  :wub: 

 

Spent part of the day at the NC Zoo trying out a camera.  

 

Do you like the new camera?  I love going to the zoo  :hug: 

I like hole-punch clouds, or semi hole-punch. :)

Cool picture   ^_^
