There She GOES!
So I have uploaded an 80 Meg GOES Satellite video. (Thank you NASA!) And I have a couple observations I want to share. Before I do, put on those dark glasses and consider a few things:
1) The weakly interacting massive particle orbits up and out (flung?) from the eye of that Hurricane towards space to begin with since it is interacting with the mass of water being flung around in the atmosphere due to its angular momentum and gravitational pull. Based upon what I see the particle seems to be flung up and out towards the South/Southwest.
2) Initially, when that Hurricane is down in the Caribbean, the particle is still in a high Earth orbit going way above the clouds, maybe even above the atmosphere. So its contrail through the atmosphere will not be continuously connected to the hurricane and the path home.
3) Early on, the particle should leave a contrail as it re-enters the lower atmosphere somewhere to West where it was flung into the upper atmosphere and streaks back towards Albion, NY where it re-enters the Earth. I will make the observation that you first see the particle’s contrail re-entering towards the Northwest and that as the orbit decays you start to see a trough along the West. I will make the argument that the “Cold Front” to the West Sandy “collided” with was actually the cold contrail created by the particle re-entering Earth’s lower atmosphere on its way up to New York.
4) As time progresses and the Hurricane approaches NY, the contrail of the particle re-entering the atmosphere should connect back to the Hurricane, because the particle’s orbit is now lower in altitude and is primarily remaining in the lower atmosphere instead of popping out and coming back in. It now has a continuous stream of atmospheric gasses to collapse and produce a magnificent contrail connecting the hurricane to its destination.
5) This contrail should be pulled in the direction of New York, against the rotational direction of the hurricane and with the path of the particle.
