Ok, with hurricane season underway, and Louisiana still up a creek sans paddle, I thought it'd be nice to start some serious discussion about that universal idle topic of conversation.
Pretty much anything that's going on involving air and water on our little blue marble should be relevant, but PLEASE for the love of $DEITY avoid arguments about global warming/climate change, or /x/-tier tinfoil like HAARP and "chemtrails". Let's try to keep it concrete, practical, and empirical.

I'll give it a bump from /news/.

Ok.
I'm actually preparing a forecast right now for hikers on the AT. I'll leave it with the bottles of water I usually deliver.

Since when is meteorology not a science?

Meteorology is science.

Florida is very overdue for a hurricane. Our last one took my roof clean off. Since then I've been very interested in studying hurricanes. Glad to see this thread.

Weather doesn't normally work that way, but you might be right in this case:

Now let's just hope that poltards don't come in and spazz out by seeing the words "climate change".

It's the anniversary of Hurricane Andrew today. What a storm that was.

>>8290349
What do meteorology students study? What do they do research on?
Are courses on chaos theory required? Is meteorology very math intensive?

Meteorology is extremely math intensive. Even though you're not physically creating or designing anything, it's basically an engineering field. Wherever you go, you will certainly be required to take calc I,II,and III, diff eqs, stats, phys, chem, plus the classes particular to the major. Most of meteorology is the combination of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, which are perhaps the two most complicated subjects in classical physics.
So if you don't like math and physics, I strongly suggest you run in the other direction.
A sample course listing is available at http://catalog.tamu.edu/undergraduate/geosciences/atmospheric-sciences/meteorology-bs/#programrequirementstext for you to study.

If they do, then report their asses. They're not going to take over yet another board.

OP: Surprised you havent got this one (not meteorology tho) Air-Ocean-Chem-Particulates.

That is interesting, and very relevant.Thank you.

It would still be better to avoid a conflict if we can. We have nothing to gain or prove.

We do have something to lose though. We can't just let them walk all over us.
