It's RAINING OIL in Louisiana!!!

Xaielao says...

>> ^alizarin:

Oil doesn't evaporate into rainclouds so it can't be "raining" oil unless there was a waterspout (unlikely).


This is accurate. It is literally impossible to 'rain oil' simply because it's molecules will not bond with water molecules.

However combined with the dispersant being used it is possible for some of those broken up molecules to combine with water. Though it is hard to say if it would resemble oil at all.

It's RAINING OIL in Louisiana!!!

So, Apparently It's Raining Oil Around The Gulf...

It's RAINING OIL in Louisiana!!!

Crazy tornado, eh?


Yeah we normally get some pretty nasty weather all around in Ontario, but this has been the big one so far. Had a few small tornados down by London, Aylmer, and Windsor earlier in the year with next to no damage but this one kicked up some serious stuff from Windsor all the way through to Owen Sound.

Connecticut Tornado

old_spider says...

Also known as a 'univorticular whirlwind', 'univort', or 'dustdevil'. Over water these are known as 'waterspouts'. It's not a true tornado. It's a rising column of air created by a layer of rotating hot air on the surface, while a tornado is a bit more complex, requiring both a significant updraft and downdraft, and rotating winds. Or at least that's the skinny.
