Mysterious Gravity Wave Over the Eastern Pacific OceanWe receiv

  • We received the following email from Ken Waters of the National Weather Service forecast office in Phoenix, Arizona:

    I noticed something interesting in this morning’s visible imagery off the Baja California coast.

    Here’s a link: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2ktDMIN5qWfODI2OTYzYjgtZjJkMS00MTU5LTk2ODctYzdhNzY5M2Y2MWIx

    I’m looking at the apparent wave pattern that’s going “upstream” towards the northeast whereas the low level flow is mostly towards the south. Is that a gravity wave? If so, what causes it? The vis can only go so far back so I looked at the IR and couldn’t find anything obvious.

    Great question Ken — it certainly appears to be some sort of internal gravity wave, but what caused it and why was it propagating against the ambient flow shall remain a bit of a mystery until we can dig into this case a bit further. One more event for the “What the heck is this?” blog category.
