		<description><![CDATA[I saw an interesting press release about a paper this past week.  The headline was along the lines of &#8220;Climate Change Increasing Space Junk&#8221;.
Say what? I can predict the comments now that this will get. &#8220;You blame everything on global warming!&#8221;
Well, let&#8217;s look at what the paper really says and why they reached the conclusions [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Space weather experts at NOAA and NASA have been monitoring a very active sunspot over the last few days.
This area has produced several Coronal Mass Ejections (CME). These flares can cause trouble with radio communication and even cause power outages if they hit Earth. Satellites can be especially hard hit. Past solar flares have crippled [...]]]></description>

There seems to be a growing consensus among the models that Alex will come ashore in Mexico, well south of Brownsville, Texas. The latest movement, along with the new guidance, is a bit left of the last NHC track.  Look for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The images from the NASA Terra and Aqua satellites have at times shown the oil slick in the Gulf very dramatically. Today&#8217;s is one of the best I have seen. The sun angle was just right. You can also see a smoke plume at the very bottom. This is where they are burning the oil [...]]]></description>

There are several ways of seeing the extent of the oil slick on the water in the Gulf of Mexico. Visible light is just one way. A better way may very well be to use Synthetic Aperture Radar and look at the Gulf in high frequency radio light.

The Gulf Loop current may very well be picking up the oil slick in the Gulf. This would bring the oil down through the Florida Keys and into the Gulf Stream. Eventually passing between Florida and the Bahamas.
Oil in this area could cause severe damage to ocean reefs in the Keys and near the Bahamas. [...]]]></description>

Oklahoma was hit by a swarm of tornadoes today. At least 4 are dead. [...]]]></description>

The upper level winds are not blowing the ash toward the UK today and that is very good news. If they were, there would be widespread cancellations of flights. The cloud is especially thick.

The good news is that late today the eruption has become much quieter and the ash is not as high as earlier.

The flooded rivers around Nashville are clearly evident in the image (see below). Nashville is at the center of the image. Accurate rain gauges from Central Tennessee show a rain event of incredible proportions. Areas around Nashville [...]]]></description>
