No particular reason......it's just really cool.

500mb is considered the "weather level". It's the elevation that drives weather, commonly referred to as the *jet stream*.

I use it when I'm trying to be Tom Skillings.

Quite mesmerizing. It's one of those patterns of movement that transcends scale. I've seen the same patterns while looking through a microscope and a telescope and while watching a pan of pasta boil.

But does it raise as many eyebrows as the "other site" I posted?

It is a bit mesmerizing and I've never watched pasta boil. Do you need to keep sampling testing for how close to done it is like I have to do when grilling venison sausage?

Absolutely. The hairline edge between al dente and mush is close; too close to tell visually; you gotta sample.

I just throw some at the cat. If it sticks, it's done.
