Solve : Forecast oil not moving in the Gulf.? |

Answer» Computer Models had predicted very bad news. But new updates do not fully support that grime conclusion. Here are two sources. Gulf oil spill Archive | Updraft | Minnesota Public RadioQuote Where Is the Oil Headed? - ScienceInsiderFor more updates use this Google search for up to date news. News for News for Gulf Oil Forecast I have but one word that makes all predictions doubtfull at best. That word is "tornado". truenorthActually i should have said "hurricane" truenorthhttp://www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com/Truenorth, you had it right the first time. Hurricanes are somewhat predicable, while tornado's are totally unpredictable.Yes BUT the sheer size of the area covered by a hurricane will cause the contaminants from the oil spill to impact a very greater area compared to what a localized tornado would do but over a VASTLY greater area. It would undoubtedly, if it is Gulf based event as so many of them are turn the Gulf waters into a cauldron of water/oil/dispersant soup. Which is one of the points that Commando's article relates. truenorthYou can VIEW the realtime feeds from the ROV's. The ENTERPRISE ones are active, now.

The area it covers afterwards would of course be a larger problem.from NOAA: http://www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com/posted/2931/NOAA_fact_sheet_on_hurricanes_and_oil_spills.572167.pdf Computer_Commando, excellent link! Very informative. Thanks. It's all in this website: http://www.deepwaterhorizonresponse.com/go/site/2931/ It's being updated constantly. Immense resources have been called upon to deal with this incident. |
