Re: Teslas Ball Lightning

Relative barometric pressure is not Absobaric presure . The relative
barametric presure here is given by the US weather beau, but the altitude is
7000 ft alt and the boiling point of water is 4o less than sea level.  The
actual un corrected presure is much lower than posted bu USWB.
