Eden Watch End of May page 2 - a storm brewing on the 20th
The following image in the water vapor spectrum captures the ferment which developed over the desert in the evening of the 20th of May, and below it the cloud height image shows how towering storm clouds are being pulled upwards into the desert once again. This is a repeat of the last Eden storm, with a storm in the center of the desert followed by another storm moving in through the west coast of Eden from South America only this one looks much larger and more turbulent...

Another curious looking development is the appearance of a vortex that has dragged the clouds from the eastern United states and has created a long wing like structure that is currently just north of Eden. At the same time storm clouds are over the Mountains in the West and given the drought this suggests a high fire danger for this week. In the first photo the 'wing like' cloud is moving off the coast of the eastern United states being pulled Eastward by the vortex. The Vortex that is connected to this cloud structure is shown in the water vapor image below as of the morning of the 21st of May, 2002
