"Skywise" wrote in message ... CNN showing a Luftanasa 737 skidded off the end of the runway at Peasron (sp?) airport, Toronto Canada. The plane is on fire but appears intact. Heavy thunderstorms reported in the area. Another phenomenon not mention so far is the 180 degree wind shift that often occurs when a T-storm passes overhead. The cell is drawing air from around it and can cause a sudden reversal in surface winds as it passes overhead. Couple that with wind shears and downdrafts and you have a "devil's mix" of atmosphere. |
