IS THIS WEIRD WEATHER EFFECTING SKIP CONDITIONS???

[Eagleman]

I was curious if anybody else sees the same thing about weather conditions & skip. I noticed most all around the USA is having bad weather this year, therefore I think its effecting our skip conditions, What do you think??? Eagleman

I always thought it had more to do with solar flares than anything else.

In a word, no. HF Skip is entirely caused by the electrical charge of atmospheric E-layer. Mostly affected by solar activity.

thought so, now I can tell people who think that the clouds affect skip that they are crazy

Sunspots, sporadic-e, cb radio propagation are all good to google. This will help you understand skip and what makes it possible.

We're talking to South America in the evening and Australia in the morning. CB ROCKS!!!!!!
