Pare, dico PARE che il mondo accademico sia concorde nel voler aggiungere una nuova classe o tipo di nuvole, l'ultima volta accadde nel 1951.

PICTURES: New Cloud Type Discovered?

Questo è quanto mi scrive il Cloud Appreciation Society nella newsletter ricevuta oggi:

Since the cloud looks rather as if you are looking up at the surface of
a turbulent, choppy sea, we decided to name it with the word used by
Roman poets to describe the sea being 'roughened-up' or 'agitated' by the
cold north winds. No sooner had we started speaking with The Royal
Meteorological Society in the UK about the proposed asperatus cloud to
see how we might go about trying to add it to the classification system as
a new variety, than media got wind of it. They couldn't resist the
prospect of a new cloud on the horizon, and soon the story went 'viral'. It
has now appeared on radio, newspapers and websites in countries right
across the world.
Qualcuno ne sa qualcosa ?
