(meteorobs) weather and URAS

[drobnock]

By the broadest definition this is meteorology.
>From the Caribbean Hurricane Network, tropical storm  Ophelia and UARS,
"The UARS satellite that you have probably heard is 'crashing to earth'
probably today, is doing one pass over the Eastern Caribbean at about
18:15-18:25 this evening (as it is getting lower it's orbit changes so
difficult to make an exact prediction). But it is just possible that it
could chose this orbit to come down, in which case it will be quite
spectacular.  At the moment, Antigua area will be about the best place
to see it.  I stress that in the still bright sky, at this time, it will
only be easily visible if it happens to be burning up. If it has started
to enter the atmosphere earlier, then crash helmets might be a good
idea. From Grenada you will have to look very low to the west to North
West.  The chances are very low, but you never know."
