Interesting weather...?
Sep. 20th, 2014 10:08 amBeing bored last night, I decided to open the weather radar app on my phone last night, as one does. (What, you mean you don't?)
I don't live in El Paso, but I was virtual-traversing the southwest US, checking on the remains of Hurricane Odile, and happened across this radar signature from an area of Mexico just S/SW of El Paso (the National Weather Service doesn't of course have radar sites in Mexico, but the El Paso office one extends a little ways into that country. Radar is no respecter of borders and border patrols, what can I say).
It was so unusual that I decided to do some screen shots of it and made a rather rough .gif (apologies for the herky-jerky quality. This is the first attempt I've done at .gif making!) And putting it under a cut so the blinky doesn't drive y'all nuts on your flist page.( Read more... )
So... any guesses on what may have caused this? The answer is under the cut.
