Contrails (condensation trails) are created by vapor from the exhaust fumes of jet engines. If the air is cold enough, ice crystals develop before the water droplets can evaporate so contrails technically are high level cirrus-like clouds that consist entirely of ice crystals.

"I'd worked as an observer for years, but needed to re-certify. I learned more in this course than I ever imagined I could and I passed the exam with flying colors. I am also definately a better observer" TS, Louisiana

I knew nothing about weather at all. My new job depended on passing the weather observer certification test. Thanks to the patience and personal attention you gave us all, the entire class passed. JB, Texas

"When my company sent me to this class I thought I didn't need the training. I was wrong. Thanks" RB, Texas

You are the "Gold Standard" of teaching. Absolutely the best teacher I have ever had. DG, Louisiana
