Breakfast of Idiots!

 

[KCJackie]

I know we whine about the weather here in south lately but this is from the second storm.  A friend of mine son trimming a tree blown over by the gravity wave wind, whatever the heck that is.


Trees this size crashing was pretty scary and they were all over the region, not just in a few locations.  Was strange howling wind for three or four hours.

  That is one big tree!  Yet your friend looks so calm.   I'm glad your trees made it - they are gorgeous!!

Good golly miss molly Anna, No wonder you haven't slept much. I have heard lots of different weather terms since moving here. But thats a new one for me. Glad you are alright.

Well, it's the booze.   Now all we need is a bartender.

Considering the source, it is quite a compliment.   

Awwww, what a good bartender you are!!  You remember what I drink!

[Anna]

GE,
I never heard that weather term before, either.  Am beginning to think the weatherman made it up to cover for not predicting any of that.

We just rented it but have not watched it yet.  My daughter had 2 tests to study for.  Hopefully, we can watch it tomorrow night.

I still don't understand what they are. maybe my monkey brain is just to tried to understand tonight.


For the different concept in general relativity, see Gravitational wave.
In fluid dynamics, gravity waves are waves generated in a fluid medium or at the interface between two media (e.g. the atmosphere and the ocean) which has the restoring force of gravity or buoyancy.

When a fluid element is displaced on an interface or internally to a region with a different density, gravity tries to restore the parcel toward equilibrium resulting in an oscillation about the equilibrium state or wave orbit. Gravity waves on an air-sea interface are called surface gravity waves or surface waves while internal gravity waves are called internal waves. Wind-generated waves on the water surface are examples of gravity waves, and tsunamis and ocean tides are others.

Wind-generated gravity waves on the free surface of the Earth's ponds, lakes, seas and oceans have a period of between 0.3 and 30 seconds (3 Hz to 0.033 Hz). Shorter waves are also affected by surface tension and are called gravity-capillary waves and (if hardly influenced by gravity) capillary waves. Alternatively, so-called infragravity waves — which are due to subharmonic nonlinear wave interaction with the wind waves — have periods longer than the accompanying wind-generated waves

Some country I never heard of before.

I LOVE to hear monkeys laughing!  Nothing like it.
