Dan,
Is there any corelation you can see between HAARP activity and the recent Myanmar cyclone?
Around 1200 UTC on May 2, Cyclone Nargis made landfall in the Ayeyarwady Division of Myanmar.

Greetings,
I have been enjoying this thread. I now wish to join it hopefylly wpill fire into the HAARP debate. I am a trained expert in meteorology (as has been called for on several occasions). First off, yes, a storm system can and commonly does stall out this has been happening long before HAARP and will continue to happen as it is due to something called Rossby waves in the atmosphere (in fact, there are also stationary waves in Martian weather, but of s slightly more subtle type).
Second, those "strange circles" on the radar readout are very common with the new "Next Generation Radar" (NexRad - commonly miscalled "doppler radar" - out that's trivia...). This too has been occurring since before HAARP was operational. These artifacts are caused by lots of things from the radar being pointed at too low of an angle (and thus it picks up low level humidity) to the base level reflectivity being miscalibrated.
I am no fan of HAARP, but 4neither of these very common, very normal occurances can or should be blamed on HAARP. Someone (I cannot recall who) correctly stated that in the case of a normal midlatitude low weather system, lingering contrails are commonplace and are well explained due to the adiabatic lapse rate and the lifted index (a measure of the mean vertical velocity over a large scale area).
I should also point out that I worked at a national weapons laboratory for more than 10 years in a physics department. While it is certainly not impossible to get electromagnetic energy to couple with the ground, it is difficult at best. What do I mean by "coupling in with the ground"? I mean that it is not enough to provide the energy for an event, whatever that event is, you also have to somehow get it to couple into the system you are trying to impart the energy into. So, for example, say you have an amount of energy X that is in the form of electromagnetic energy (as is produced by HAARP) - then you somehow need to couple that energy into whatever physical system you wish to impart the energy into, in this case, if you want to produce earthquakes, you need to impart it into the ground. Some fraction of that energy will be lost, so the net amount you will impart into the ground will be Y with Y < X.
The hypothesis (that is all it really is as far as you know right now - from the standpoint of being based in physics) that HAARP is using the Van Allan Radiation Belts (there are two, an inner and ann outer one) as a dynamo to generate feedback and then somehow be projectable to a specific area is possible, but dubious. I will provide some food for thought and links that I recommend you look into for more information to help guide you on your path.
We do know for a fact that there does exist a special place in the Van Allen Radiation Belt where the coupling does act like a dynamo. But this is highly variable on a day to day and hour to hour basis and is also affected by the net flux of solar energy into that region, which in turn depends on sunspot activity among other things.

I will leave you with one final thought to chew on: It was not us, the United States, who accidentally discovered this sweet spot in the ionosphere due to Project Argus Prime (nor, actually, any of our other high altitude nuclear tests)... Why is this place special and of importance in the nuclear community? If you know where this sweet spot is, then you know how to impart an EMP on your adversaries satellites. That was the rationale at the time. It was the Russian's who hit the right altitude, at the right latitude in one of their shots. In fact, it was one of the shots in the last two years in the Russian high-altitude weapons program. Take a look into that and then you might be onto something...
Finally, might I make a friendly suggestion that you check out pre existingthe ionosondes (same thing as a digisonde, as has been discussed herein already) at various global locations and create a global understanding of what is really going here (i.e. with more than one ionosonde( you can tell something about locality and velocity of a moving wave phenomenon; with three or more ionosondes you ocan triangulate data and start to understa?

Finally.. a trained expert. Thank you for joining the convo. Thank you for confirming that weather systems do stall out. I did not get answers from anyone else. Could you explain Rossby waves a little more please?
Thanks for clearing that up.
How can you say that HAARP cannot be blamed for the disasters or are not even referring to them?

Wow, 10 years at a national weapons lab... that is great.
Do you understand the graphs???
I understand your position.. you don't think that we would do this to ourselves.

What I get from what you said above is that it IS possible to push the energy into the ground, but difficult.
So, how could the system you saw have been created? I've described
two ways, but I will spell them out: one way is that a low pressure
system (a Rossby wave) could have been a retrograde system, causing it
to have the appearance of either not moving at all or
else moving slightly "backwards" in comparison to the normal flow of
the weather from west to east. The second way is that a descended
Rossby wave could have cut off completely in which case it more or
less just sits there until it gets moved along my the next Rossby wave
that comes along to move it out of the way. For a very nice graphic
of this phenomenon, that is not overly technical (ignore the equations
on that page) take a look at the Wikipedia Page on Rossby Waves
No, no. I have no doubt that we are not that stupid. Do you have any idea how many states we have tested nuclear devices in? Let me give you a hint, it is not two (New Mexico and Nevada - the obvious ones) but many more than that. Believe me, my mind is open, but I need to see more coherent science first. I'm trying to help you along the way because I think you may be onto something, but as I said (or think I said) this is not my thunder to steal - it's yours. So I'm just here to keep you on your toes.
Finally, I should note that from an energetics of the Aurora's are such that the total integrated energy output of HAARP over several months would not touch a few days of highly active Auroral display - so, you need to stretch your mind a bit more (dynamo).

from danman23, needed to put next quote in context... I understand your position.. you don't think that we would do this to ourselves.

I see this thread was started on 4-21-08. I recently tried to address this here, but no one cared.
Ah, no doubt. This stuff has to be done. It's an "us or them" thing. Ask any serious ecologist.
This technology is not new. And we're using it on an as-needed basis. All the "big dogs" are in on it. No doubt. If early warning systems totally fail for whatever reason, and you have tropical storms right beside earthquakes with no discernable causative relation, or storm systems making improbable course changes, doesn't that raise some red flags?
See Tom Bearden. Like I said. Don't act like this is news to you. I'm just glad I don't beat, mutilate and hate girls. Or have abuncha kids without any food for them. Because this isn't the time to be doing that stuff.
Whiny Westerners should head to the Middle East or SE Asia or China where it's so much safer and better. Go ahead and escape ol' mean Uncle Sam. He's so bad! How dare he defend your fat asses and keep food on your table! Fascists! Warmongers! Murderers!!
