Contrails Affect Weather

Posted by michael on from the button-up-your-overcoat dept.

TheSync writes "Wired News has a story about how contrails may influence the weather. The grounding of commercial flight operations after the 9/11 attack gave scientists a unique opportunity to compare weather with and without contrail-producing flight operations. Day/night temperature differences rose 3 degrees Celsius in some areas."

    Can you guys not use your own search engine before posting an article. Hell, all of my original submissions have been rejected, maybe I should try a duplicate story!
