Crazy contrails over Nashville this morning

[spanone]

Never seen this before....

[Stinky The Clown]

1. Misguided Russian Missiles? More likely the result of weather in the wake of . . . .

. . . . this week's snowstorm, strong winds, and wildly fluctuating temperatures.

But to be honest, I have no clue. I'm just some guy on the internet.

[Rebl2]

74. I think if

it’s cold higher up in the atmosphere contrails from planes are much more visible. Have seen similar thing where I live in the past when it’s been cold.

[machoneman]

2. Totally strait lines airliners, not USAF planes in training exercises.

[spanone]

7. Clarksville military base (Ft. Campbell) is 50 miles north of Nash. These are going North to South

We're in a flight pattern for Nashville Airport most flights East & West

[doc03]

3. George Norri and Alex Jones will know what that is all about. Does look like

a lot of air traffic.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

21. Saturation chem trailing

... not

[wnylib]

34. George Noory

On the first night of Putin's invasion, Noory was pushing the "fascists in Ukraine" justification.

[doc03]

51. I believe it haven't listen to him for years. He pushes

every nutty conspiracy out there. I see him on the history channel he has alien bases everywhere from the dark side of the moon to under the polar ice cap.

[wnylib]

55. I am often up late at night so occasionally

I tune in to his radio program, Coast to Coast, mostly for a chuckle, but also out of curiosity to know what the latest RW lines are for the gullible.

Noory is a RW extremist who uses his program to sell far right propaganda to the kinds of people who will believe anything as long as it does not come from standard, logical reasoning.

All his guests and advertisements are in line with RW conspiracy theories. But he tells his listeners that he does not have any political biases and just presents "facts."

[panader0]

4. Are there aircraft at nearby Ft Campbell?

[spanone]

8. Yes

[fwvinson]

18. They have alot of tanks and helicopters on that base.

I'm 20 miles north of Ft. Campbell. Helicopters fly over my property constantly, pretty low, just above tree tops. Sometimes, they shake the house.

[PCIntern]

5. Jersey shore has had greatly increased activity...

NAFEC base near me, I’m in the landing pattern and the volume of military aircraft is way up. Also, and this is fun, this is where AF 1 practices touch and go maneuvers. Wow, is all I can say….

[hamsterjill]

20. Same here in San Antonio

Marked increase in jets and cargo planes. I’m in that flight path.

[SilasSouleII]

28. JBSA Lackland or Randolph?

I'm in the Lackland area and there has been a significant increase in the cargo ( C5-M)training flights. Really unusually low flying.

[hamsterjill]

31. Lackland

Definitely an increase. Glad I’m not the only one who has noticed!

Stay safe!

[niyad]

36. Had helos flying all Saturday. Don't know from which of our bases. But

completely unsuprising.

[malaise]

6. Quite beautiful

Let us know details when you get them

Get thee to the greatest page for visibility.

[USALiberal]

9. There are Thousands of planes in the air all the time. Period.

And the contrails Are more visible depending on weather conditions.

Download an app like FlightAware and you’ll be amazed how many planes are in the sky anyone time.

[Effete Snob]

27. Ding ding ding ding... we have a winner

If one is judging air traffic by visible contrails, then about the only thing one is measuring is atmospheric conditions.

Looks cold and clear.

[BlackSkimmer]

45. Exactly.

Add in perfect weather condition and voila!

[NutmegYankee]

10. Stable atmosphere.

Probably just passenger jets that are passing through a stable cold atmosphere. The stability and low wind let the contrails stay in place.

[HAB911]

11. confluence of temperature and humidity in the upper atmosphere

otherwise, we would see them all the time
Atlas Air 747 (Amazon) leaving Miami heading north recently

[RKP5637]

12. Wow, its star wars swords of the jedi! n/t

[spanone]

14. BINGO!

[HAB911]

13. It doesn't even require engine exhaust

this is a KC135 tanker leaving MacDill AFB, reduction in pressure and temperature across each wingtip vortex can cause water to condense, producing a thin line of water droplets that looks just like a contrail

[dameatball]

54. I never knew that. Glad I kept reading until post 13.

[HAB911]

56. I am really enthralled by contrails

like all phenomena, never are two the same and sometimes there are real surprises. Here are just a few

[Hekate]

62. How cool is that? Thanks!

[atmaninall]

15. Same over pennsylvania

Same over Pennsylvania

All going est to west. Started about 8:30.

[gopiscrap]

76. welcome to DU

[Emile]

16. TFG plane looking to make an emergency landing?

[getagrip_already]

17. Relax, it's just time for the regions covid boosters........

Plus, it coincides with Caucasian birth control dosing.

Nothing to worry about. All going to plan.

[Achilleaze]

19. Thank heavens cancel culture will keep us all safe

from being exposed to VERBOTEN CONCEPTS related to this, um, phenomenon.

Whew!

[Bantamfancier]

22. Woke up to this in central Ohio.

[spanone]

26. Wow!!!!

That's a great pic

[niyad]

32. WOWWWW!!

[Throck]

23. Tell the right wingers they're spraying vaccine.

To protect themselves they'll have to wear masks.

[Emile]

24. +1. Good one!

[demmiblue]

25. !

[niyad]

30. I nearly spit out my coffee!

[lagomorph777]

53. Har har har!

[niyad]

29. Stunning. Atmospheric conditions must be just right.

[hamsterjill]

33. Why, I'm sure these "chemtrails" signal the return

Of JFK,Jr. (or perhaps JFK.Sr for some), right? I’m sure the QAnoners are all a-flutter. This is a constant subject with them.

[Achilleaze]

58. That, um, word you used is FORBIDDEN on DU

Watch out, someone may alert on you. Using that word can get you booted from DU. Beware.

[hamsterjill]

64. Which word?

That would be a bit ridiculous. I’m not trying to further their agenda. I’m making fun of them with this post. If someone alerts on that, then that’s pretty bad.

[Achilleaze]

65. Pretty bad for sure, but it happens

That word (xxx) and that thought (xxx) has been canceled on DU, and posters who use it have been flushed into the digital cesspool.

Stay safe.

Be sure your thoughts and words conform.

[hamsterjill]

67. Thank you.

I don’t much worry about that kind of thing.

[Traildogbob]

35. Mass exodus

From Tennessee as they race to be more fucked up than Texas. They are on the verge to copy cat Texas abortion laws. And let’s not even start with what they intend to do to education. If we think school boards are catching hell, think what teachers face with the children of the board assaulting Karen’s. They have to convince those spawn that math has letters in it and roots can be squared. And the first picture is definitely a “Z”, the official Russian genocide mark. Putin knows the red states are Allies.

[spanone]

38. Republican house republican senate republican governor, 2 republican Senators

we are screwed.

[Traildogbob]

39. Paid out of state tuition

For my daughter to graduate from UT. Now they are in position to take national championship in basketball. Since almost never. And it is now hard for me to hear Rocky Top. Thanks GQP. Everything they touch.

[IronLionZion]

37. Chemtrails dispersing mind control substances to catch any unvaccinated folks

Unvaccinated patriots should hold their breath as long as they can.

[sop]

40. Obviously, the Ruskies are invading. MAGATS will now get to live out their "Red Dawn" fantasies.

Go Wolverines!

[monkeyman1]

41. Con-air busy today !

[Farmer-Rick]

42. When we had that small lockdown when COVID first hit

There were no chemtrails visible above my farm for months. Then about 6 months into Covid they started up again Then they stopped again, then started, then stopped.

Right now there are very few. I think I can use chemtrails to determine the progress of COVID.

[csziggy]

77. More likely that the weather made the contrails more visible

Right after COVID got started, the weather warmed up. Six months later it got colder again. Rinse, repeat.

[Farmer-Rick]

78. Hehe...well it could be

But I have always noticed we had a lot of them. We are in the flight path for Knoxville airport.

But you're right it could be just the weather. Which is kind of funny. I'll have to see what happens here on out.

[ElementaryPenguin]

43. Geoengineering

Is a fact. Note how often the persistent contrails ("chemtrails" - a term coined not by Alex Jones, but by the U.S. Air Force) appear to be blocking the sun.

It's incredible to me that anyone observing this is thrown into the conspiracy lunatic bin.

Show me one single photo of this type of scene that predates the early 90's. (maybe late 80's.)

[A HERETIC I AM]

57. Are you serious?

Show me one single photo of this type of scene that predates the early 90's. (maybe late 80's.)

How about the 1940’s over Europe?







Sometimes a thing is just a thing, and not another thing. As mentioned elsewhere, conditions were obviously perfect for the formation of these “Condensation Trails”, but they happen ALL THE FUCKING TIME with no nefarious intent.

Including with gasoline powered radial engines from 80 years ago, as evidenced in the photos above.

[AllaN01Bear]

44. must be very cold up at 33000 thousand feet . jet fuel and water vapor .

what photo service are u using? my browser of chice wont display it.

[spanone]

60. imgur posted on Safari

[KS Toronado]

46. Wish they were made by A10 Warthogs

headed to Poland in case we figure out a way to get them into Ukrainian hands.

[left-of-center2012]

47. Just the normal contrails of a UFO

Nothing unusual

[aggiesal]

48. Parallel's and Perpendicular's, Obtuse & Acute angles ...

Lots of geometry going on.

[Jazz Jon]

50. Bingo

These geometric shapes are alien mathematical codes signaling the mothership to start the invasion.

[Rebl2]

49. Many years

ago I listened to a guy on local radio whose favorite topic was ufo’s. When there would be an increase in contrails, he would talk about it being possible ufo’s. It was silly I thought, but he was fun to listen to. He talked about a wide range of subjects, not just ufo’s and he wasn’t one of those crazy right wing radio nuts.

[spanone]

61. I had a dear friend who was extremely eccentric and she told me contrails were the government...

controlling our weather....I would laugh at her, but she listened to kookie radio shows that convinced her.

People are nuts

[lagomorph777]

52. I live near a major airport. This looks very normal to me.

Although it does look like unusually still wind condition.

[spanone]

59. Lived in this spot 30 years never seen anything like it.

[Hekate]

63. Military exercises? Training?

Busy, busy.

[librechik]

66. Star Trek Original Series Season One EP 10 "The Corbomite Maneuver"

The alien ships transcribe a huge galactic grid blocking The Enterprise. When the pattern is finished, allegedly, the universe will vanish. Fortunately, it was all a trick and the juvenile alien was just lonely.
Clint Howard in a rare juvenile role as the alien.

[Stuart G]

68. K and R no text

[ProfessorGAC]

69. I've Seen Similar

We live about 70 miles south of O'Hare.
Planes taking off in different directions, higher planes passing over Chicago, on different vectors... We see lots of odd trap patterns.
Especially true around 7 in the morning when the air up there is even cooler.
We were playing golf one Saturday morning (several years ago) and the trail pattern looked like a tic-tac-toe grid. It was nearly symmetrical!
All 3 of us playing thought it was super cool.

[spanone]

71. They are amazing....

Here's one I took out of a hotel window in Indianapolis 2015

sun was coming up thru the clouds behind them

[ProfessorGAC]

73. Yep

We see trails that look like that, a lot.
The advantage of being within 70 miles of 2 airports.
I find it more fun than finding shapes in clouds.

[Rebl2]

70. Is it cold there this morning?

[spanone]

72. 42 when the pic was taken

[ThoughtCriminal]

75. Tholian web?
