If one is familiar with the principles of slightly non compressible flow
then one must conclude from RB's reports of winds that a vacuum or large low
pressure system formed over Connecticut and a large high pressure system
formed over Long Island. This is the opposite of what typically drives wind,
but applying the boundary conditions (wind speeds) reported by others one
can only conclude there is a large heavy mass of air clumped somewhere over
Long Island and people are having a tough time breathing in Connecticut.
This is the equivalent of water flowing uphill! Certainly the BS meter would
peg with that tall tale!

But the steamroller rolls on:

The only way such atmospheric conditions could ever exist is if there was a
source or sink in the region. If not, then the divergence criteria of
atmospheric must be upheld! RB's unusual claim is clearly supported by the
presence of ground vortices in the tornado. The mixing of tremendous amounts
of hot, bloviated air combining with cool air are exactly the necessary
conditions for tornadic activity.

So, science has clearly proven that even though surrounding weather reports
show little or no wind, RB did experience gale winds in the microclime
surrounding his boat.

Cut me some slack, at least I'm consistently bad on either side of the
fence. The creative muse has flown the coop! (or blown out of the coop by
high winds).

Are you wearing your Darth Vader helmet?

Amen!

All the hyperbole, all the trolls, and all the bullcrap are tiresome and
repetitive, but then we get something like this.... priceless. Thanks! Good
show!
