Squiggly Lines in the Sky

Driving home this morning, I noticed something that I hadn't noticed before. I was watching the sky far south of Colorado Springs and noticed a contrail/chemtrail coming off a jet far in the distance, that was a squiggly line. It looked like someone was trying to get the ink going in a new pen.
Now, around here our skies are often filled with trails; crosses, grids, etc. But I've never before seen that particular pattern.
I was wondering if anyone else had noticed that type of pattern going on lately. |

Yup, the squigglies showed up here in FL about two weeks ago. Prior spray was the normal sky painting. Watch how the sqiggly lines disperse...they look like the pilot was doing loop de loops, or a chain saw type effect. Also I noticed they are shorter than the typical persistent contrails we get regularly.
BTW XPig, you seem to lump a lot of us on this board in to one group...from reading your other posts. Hang around a while and you'll find there are many points of view around here. Most just want to know what the heck they are spraying up there. Yes, I believe it is deliberate spray. I personally witnessed major grid on Sept. 11, 12, and 13th here so, that pretty much let's out normal commercial traffic.
Welcome to ChemCentral, glad to have yet another point of view. Please don't be in such a hurry to give us all the same label. |

FLKook,
You have my apologies are lumping people. I have been reading posts and it seems that only the posts that are FAR left of left get my goat. If I have offended, I am sorry.

Apology not necessary I didn't take offense but observances. You'd be surprised how many of us that lean toward the right on many issues are CT "aware." Proving it is another hurdle entirely. The intolerance of the so called "tolerant" is annoying sometimes, not that you are of that ilk.
Did you hang out at other boards before you found this one?
Simply questioning one's surroundings and messengers of one's "news," now makes it all to convenient to be labeled or should I say branded with the mark of the left, or worse wacko right wing alarmist.
I don't offend easily and don't have much experience with other boards, just wanted it noted for the record that ChemCentral seems to be made up of all kinds for what it's worth. The good, the bad, and the ugly...guess we'd all like to choose where we think we fit in. Guess others mostly like to choose for us. That is where a point of contention might be taken. But not here, not me, I enjoy a good civilized debate. As long as you realize I'm right. Conservatively speaking. Errrrr, I mean no...always correct.
What report do you have for your skies the past few days? You're in Colorado right? (too lazy to go back and check your post sorry)
We had what looked like mostly natural clouds with a much needed sprinkle or two of rain. Not enough sun to see if there was a dog or not.

I have been seeing the squiggly lines here in Spokane, Washington, for quite some time. |

FLKook,
Point to you. 
Was in my own little world driving home from work on Weds. morning, so I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention.
However, this morning was pretty interesting. I get off work at 8am and have a 30 min. drive home. In the course of that drive this morning, I watched a plane, complete with a huge trail, travel from the west side of the horizon to the east. The trail never broke and it was still there 2 hours later.
By the time I went to sleep at noon, we were gridded in pretty heavy.

Squiggly, curved, straight, random. I've watched them every day for the past 2 years cover the Arkansas skies. They make their trails, the trails form into clouds, the hills become gray with haze. You can actually see these clouds dripping. There have been no normal natural cloud formations in the two years I've been studying them. NASA and Doppler Radar have just got to be connected in some way. On a day that starts off clear as a bell, Doppler says it will be cloudy later on, and sure enough, here come the chemplanes. |

Well, Doppler Radar canot actually MAKE anything happen to the weather. All it can do is to DETECT what is already there. Would you like an explanations as to how Doppler works? |

Sure, Stuart. You can even put it into the Science Forum under a new topic. (That way it will be easily accessible for future reference.)
Could you give special attention to what forms those amazing target-and-bullseye patterns?
