“ My girlfriend at the time noticed it in my collection, and got all offended. ”
I’ll my best Napoleon Dynamite imitation and say “lucky”!
X page video won’t load.
Only “not good” if you’re a mullah or one of their tools.
“Bomb bomb bomb,
bomb bomb Iran.”
I saw what you did there, Beach Boys fan! ;-)
Yes, there are gradients in the atmosphere, too. ;-)
There are temperature gradients in the atmosphere. There could be a sinuous wake travelling through the air so that all of the caluculations become moot.
...Next will be doing doughnuts at night in the streets in the center of a cheering crowd...

Is it hard to do dounghts in the streets when your donkey is packed with all your mattresses?
No. For a WWIII, the US would have to be facing at least a partially formidable enemy.
None fits that description among Iran, Syria and Iraq.

All 3 countries worship a false god, the enemy is a snake, liar. But I know what you meant. I read a quote by Bishop Fulton Sheene: people look at life on a linear scale- left or right. They forget to look at life at a veritcal plane: heaven or hell.
LOL
Funniest of the day.
There is an old Persian saying: if you’ve seen Isfahan, you’ve seen half the world. With Isfahan under bombardment, it may be that half the world will soon follow.
“Iranian Channels are claiming that Military Drills are ongoing near the Isfahan Nuclear Facility”
Ummmm, yeahhhh....that’s the ticket.
What you say is, of course, true but then you are guessing at .4 miles. Without knowing Temperature, Pressure, Gradeints throughout the travel in air time then everything else is simply a guess.
Hint: You are communicating with an ex-Submarine Sonarman. The properties of sound travelling through air or water are pretty much the same. The only time the properties can vary slightly is when sound travels through solids. Not trying to find fault with your posts. Simply imparting knowledge. ;-)
The speed of sound in air is approximately 0.214 miles per second. Give or take a bit depending on temperature and humidity. Rain might speed it up a bit, but I’m not finding any definitive figures on that. The nature of the source is not a factor unless we are talking a large explosion propagating at faster than the speed of sound (I think).
My guess is that this time around, Iran would not be able to maintain a shutdown of the Strait of Homuz for too long. Iran’s refined products capacity is quite vulnerable. Take out their refineries, IMPORT terminals, and significant storage. No fuel. Then what are they going to do?
The velocity of sound in water is roughly 4.3 times greater than in air, right?
If Iran shuts down the strait probably any military equipment it uses will be destroyed. Including missile sites navy boats, mines, it would destroy Iranian oil economy, especially if pipelines on the land are destroyed along their length. That would invite open rebellion by starving and cold Iranians....
Military drills as , “Run!”...if those are nuke sites ..probably donning their radiation suits...would guess the stores of concentrated radioactive material is being blown up and dissipated..take a long time to reconstitute the supply of fissionable material....
Density.
Travels faster in water and faster still in solids.
So the sound from lightning will thane a bit longer than from the ground.
