"Chemtrail" season is approaching!

As the northern hemisphere grows cooler this autumn, I predict that the number of threads reporting "chemtrails" will begin to multiply. They will begin to skyrocket the last week of November and reach a climactic frenzy the first week of January. The reports will then drop off sharply and diminish noticeably in the spring.

This is not a psychic prediction, or one based on inside knowledge of an evil conspiracy. It is a scientific one. What some people persist in thinking are chemicals being sprayed into the atmosphere for reasons unknown, are in fact water ice crystals forming in the wake of ordinary commercial airliners. As the air gets cooler in the autumn, these contrails will form at lower altitudes and will be more prevalent. The last week of November is when people in North America celebrate Thanksgiving, a holiday that many people travel home for. Air traffic increases to meet this demand. Airliners criss-cross the airlines taking people from one end of the continent to the other. Criss-cross, because flights are travelling between every city. The traffic peaks the first week in January, of course, because New Year's marks the end of the winter vacation season.

I post this now so that it can be referenced in the coming weeks.

Well thank you for enlightening the morons of the world to your wisdom! (insert eye roll)

I think most people KNOW regular trails from those that criss-cross and linger in the skies for upwards to 15-30-45 minutes. Jet airliners didn't just role off the assembly line so most here have grown up with them and know their behavior.

But hey, thanks for the reminder duh, I mean, though

i predict that in my area i wont see any heavy spraying untill march, then it will stop very abruptly in june..i base this from this years observations

How do you record your observations? Is it systematic or do you only jot it down if you notice something you consider unusual? Do you spend a lot of time outdoors from December to February? If you're not outside as much, you will have fewer opportunities to see contrails. In March it gets warm enough to spend more time outside, and by June the atmosphere has warmed up and there are fewer contrails (as predicted).

What is your reply to this video?

December, cold upper atmosphere in North America, 2 planes flying at roughly the same altitude, one has a nomral looking contrail, and the other is spitting out a contrail from horizon to horizon.

SERIOUSLY! What scientifically would explain that?

earlier in the year i was not as familiar with the trails issue, and was therefor not as receptive to what i was actually seeing when i glanced up.

i chose march, because thats when i started noticing them. you could be absolutely right that in the previous months leading up to that i was simply not outside as much.

i became aware of the "chemtrails vs contrails" issue sometime that spring, and began actual observations after that.

it wasnt so much when it started that concerns me, it was when it ended.

it ended literally over night.im talkin criss cross skies every single day, and then nothin. it was early june when the kids got out of school, but i cannot remember the exact day. i just remember after several months of constant "trails" (and i live in the middle of 5 commercial airports and at least 2 military, you can step outside at any given time of the day and see multiple trails) literally the next day had zero. . the skies were clear blue all summer. i didnt start seeing them again until school started in september.

another thing. where i live its clear which planes are coming and going, and which ones are not stopping at all.

it is ALWAYS the ones that are not stopping at any of the nearby airports.

ive seen contrails all my life. they never use to descend. i always remember them dissipating quickly, now they sink down lower and we have these weird wannabe looking clouds that are literally only a few hundred feet above the ground. i have lived here my entire life and we have NEVER had these super low clouds that move around (you can sit there and watch them form and deform right above your head). the contrails of old i remember use to only be the planes that were WAAAYY up there, and the line would be thin. they never use to spread out and get bigger over hours.

another thing strange, is this year we had an "Indian summer" where it didnt actually warm up until summer was OVER. here we are in November when it should be raining, and the sun is still out like its summer. i dont know if they are related its just another unusual thing i noticed. and i dont recall any other years being like this.. occasionally summer would span out into September, but nothing like this year.


i leave the door open to any and all explanations which im sure there are many. but one thing i wont budge on is this was not occurring 5-10 years ago. not in the manner that it is now. not in my area.

There never seems to be a shortage of chemtrail threads on ATS no matter what season. There also never seems to be a shortage of lame predictions on ATS either, so thanks for contributing to that stat.

if i can get ahold of a decent camera ill be happy to share any and all observations.


all i have is my cell phone camera that sucks pretty bad.

THAT video shows two airliners, at different altitudes. Therefore, the conditions for contrail formation were different. The one at the lower altitude was in air with a higher relative humidity, and therefore a longer-lasting (persistent) contrail.

It really is that simple.

Now, judging altitude, merely by observation, is not an exact science....but based on what I observed (two flights, apparently on same Airway, or at least approximately parallel courses) and their proximity to each other.

They cannot be so close together, IF at the same altitude. Minimum horizontal separation at those high (cruising) altitudes is 20 NM. Plus, my experience tells me that the one leading is the one at a higher altitude, just by eyeballing the two.

Have you ever heard of the website "FlightAware"?

Don't know whether that's your YT video, and you're in the COS area or not. But, here's a link directly to the website, and it shows live activity, flights on IFR flight plans, in the COS area. (You can change the setting, just type in another airport):

flightaware.com...

That was the link to the site overall, with extra info....(info worth checking out, if you want to learn more things)...here is the BIGGIE map direct link (which you can access, of course, from the first one too).

When you look at the flight tracker, the airplane icons in green are the ones to focus on, since they are cruising by, and not departing/arriving at the airport you have the map centered on. THEY make the contrails (but only when conditions are right, for contrails to form).

Rollover with your mouse, on icons, to see the flight number, airplane type, altitude, groundspeed and city pair.

You can try to then identfy the actual airplanes, when you see them outside, by referencing the tracker website.

Oh, and BTW?? IF "chemtrails" were real (they aren't), but IF....why on Earth would they be "spraying" over Colorado Springs, of all places??

The United States Air Force Academy is located there, you know.......
