Hi Everyone! My name is Kristina, studying Atmospheric Science at UMASS Lowell. I will be a senior this fall. Currently, I am an intern for Meteorologist Matt Noyes at NECN. This is my new project, where I will posting interesting photos of clouds that will be seen in my daily life, and I will describe their origins and what kind of weather they bring. Follow me on twitter as well, KristinaWXuml. and you can also ready my posts at weathernewengland.comTumblr (3.0; @kristinascloudcorner)http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/<img

discovered September 23, 1846. It takes Neptune 164.8 Earth years to orbit the Sun. Notice something? It’s been only one Neptunian year since it’s discovery. About 5 generations of humans have lived and about 3 of them have died since Neptune was first discovered.</p> <p>Now, look at the planet. It’s blue, obviously, but notice the giant dark spot littered with thin white clouds. That is Neptune’s famous <strong>Great Dark Spot</strong>. It is similar to Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, however, Neptune’s spot didn’t last for nearly as long as the Great Red Spot. It comes and goes every few Earth years, whereas the Great Red Spot has been raging nonstop since it’s discovery by numerous astronomers throughout the 17th century (and we also have no idea how long it’s been going before we found it). What is this enormous discoloration? A behemoth storm system. Neptune has the fastest winds of the solar system, topping off at up to 1400mph. The storm is a raging whirlpool of Hydrogen, Helium and Methane gas, which is what gives Neptune is luminous blue hue. Now, before, I said this storm system was enormous. Just how enormous? Big enough to engulf Earth. 8100 miles long and 4100 miles wide.</p> </blockquote>http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7516251010http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7516251010Mon, 11 Jul 2011 21:50:23 -0400<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/64360101@N05/5910016416/">Cirrus Castellanus Example</a>http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7313615953http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7313615953Wed, 06 Jul 2011 16:22:50 -0400<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/64360101@N05/5909341255/">7/6/11 Cirrus</a>http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7313596890http://kristinascloudcorner.tumblr.com/post/7313596890Wed, 06 Jul 2011 16:22:19 -0400
