WTF is up with its arm? Looks like Stretch Fatarms got too close to an open flame and started melting.
Lost a ton of weight.
Iron pony - is that you?
It's the weight of that glorious Eagle Globe & Anchor on her shoulder.
I remember hearing about my uncle having to do this while on ship during Vietnam. It was to have dental work done or something.
The point being that we have president who wants industry instead of a president who scorned it.
Good thing I have more beer in the fridge. I might need to stay up for this.
Dayum. I DO believe somebody brought a knife to a gunfight here.
SVTP is not "defunct" snowflake, I guess I was wrong about the enthusiast part, just a sad snowflake loser.
Run off to facebook, I'm sure you're waiting breathlessly for the next muffler bearing post.

I heart this meme.
Weatherman can chime in as I haven't finished my degree yet, but I don't think so. Even using the equation I know for the theoretical maximum updraft speed (which vastly over estimates the speed - so much so that meteos will divide the number by 2 or 3) you get anywhere from 150 - 200kts for maximum updraft speed which is over a very limited distance. So I don't see the vertical velocity being faster. MAYBE the updraft might have areas where its instantaneous acceleration is greater than max climb rate of f16, but not for a significant distance
There are a ton of variables at play here so there's no real definitive answer (on both sides - max climb rate of jet and updraft of supercell)

Pretty much right on. A Cessna 172 would be in a world of hurt. The Air Force did a lot of penetrations into storm cells with a F-106 back in the day conducting research.
Thank you for confirmation.
A commercial plane made the mistake of flying through a supercell in the late 70s in Georgia (southern airlines I think it was), it didn't end well

Baseball size hail and violent up and downdrafts are a bad combo.
