Theory as to Rainfall by EC Palmer at 128 Seaton Place Northwest
A reader proposes a rainfall theory linking last summer’s heavy precipitation to Mount Vesuvius eruptive steam and heat. He argues the eruption released vast moisture raising atmospheric saturation, with heat keeping vaporized water aloft until extended transport caused rainfall. He notes temperature moisture relations and calls for further development of the idea.
