Regional district staff and political representatives took advantage of the hot weather last week, conducting the second open air meeting in Olalla in the past year. The concept is unique to Olalla, which has no public building large enough in which to hold a community meeting. Fortunately for the Regional District Okanagan Similkameen, both tent meetings took place under sunny,
warm conditions. The meeting was chaired by Electoral Area “G” Director Angelique Wood, who told between 25 - 30 residents assembled that the meeting would focus on “Fortis, financing, funding and forestry.” The Fortis conservation rate continues to cause consternation amongst B.C. residents. Wood reported that numerous letters had been sent to the British Columbia Utilities Commission, from herself, Keremeos Village Council, and the Southern Interior
Local Government Association. “It was a hot topic at SILGA (convention) ,” she said, “people are mad, consider themselves overcharged, and are having a hard time paying bills.” She encouraged those present to make their feelings known to the BCUC. RDOS Financial Manager Sandy Croteau gave Olalla residents advance warning of an impending water tax increase. Olalla residents can expect to pay an average of $52 more this year for their water
bill. Croteau cited increasing operating costs for the increase. “User fees have remained unchanged since 2006,” she told the assembly, adding that prior year’s savings had been used to offset increases in the past few years, but that money was now used up. RDOS Public Works Manager Doug French said that grant funding was available to Olalla for flood mitigation, but one third of any project would have to be funded by the community. French said
that two applications had been sent in prior to a May 22 deadline. “The provincial study we had done two years ago had no ready solutions,” French said. “It will be up to you if you want to come up with the one third funding (to take advantage of the application).” Emergency Services Supervisor Dale Kronebusch addressed potential imminent flooding issues in the community. Noting that mosquito spraying would be taking place on May 10 on continued on page 3

Volunteers construct a canopy for the community kitchen in Keremeos. The shelter will be in place prior to the rodeo this weekend. - May is Missing Children’s Month, May 25 is Missing Children’s Day in Keremeos. - May 8 was proclaimed as Red Cross Day in Keremeos Council received a form-like letter from the British Columbia Utilities Commission in response to a request for changes in Fortis’ two tiered billing rate. Staff Reports Costs of the failed reservoir referendum were presented to council in a summary report regarding the vote. Voter turnout was low (27.81 per cent), lower than similar referendums held in Summerland, Peachland and Oliver in past years. All three of those referendums had turnouts in excess of 40 per cent. The Village of Keremeos has been working with the Union of BC Municipalities to relinquish the $300,000 funding grant offfered by the regional district for the project. The cost of the referendum was broken down as follows: Staffing $3,390 Advertising $600 Ballots $273.77 Supplies $374.32 Staff Meals $159.62 Total cost of the referendum was billed at $4,797.91. Total number of ballots cast was 650, of which 156 were in favour and 174 against. Three ballots were rejected, one was spoiled and 316 unused ballots were left over. Public Works
Public Works staff are upgrading their wastewater certification. Unplanned projects coming to council’s attention include: - a request to have water service to Crows Nest Bakery upgraded from a 3/4 inch service at an estimated cost of $5,000. - Water service lines for domestic and business consumption is suspected to be deteriorating to a point where there is a risk of a washout. Since the village is no longer capable of supplying today’s required water volume to business properties, engineers have been engaged to prepare cost estimates for design and replacement of the water mains. - Two requests have been received to extend cement barricades east of existing barricades along Second Avenue from Bypass Road, at a cost of $3,500 installed. - It is recommended that an old well in the downtown core be decommissioned and sealed off to prevent contamination of the aquifer. Capital Project Updates - Construction drawings awaited from engineers for Memorial Park washroom upgrades. - Victory Hall washroom design completed, awaiting grant approval. - Village office upgrades to date include new offices for CAO and CFO as well as access controls and alarm upgrades. - No major work planned for roads within village limits this year. - Upper bench sewer extension awaiting final design from engineers.

The logging operations in additional cut blocks are not expected to begin until next year. Two petitions directed towards the Fortis conservation rate issue were available for signatures after the meeting. Questions from those present included hypothetical issues stemming from flood concerns, and the potential for unstable ground and slides to occur following logging operations at Apex.
Keremeos Village Council heard an opinion from White Kennedy Chartered Accountants on the village’s financial statements at the May 6 regular meeting of council. The scrutiny of the village’s books by an independent auditor is an annual occurance, and as has been the case in past years, the village’s financial statements for 2013 were found to be a fair representation of the village’s financial situation. The upcoming Keremeos Elks rodeo necessitated several requests to council at the May 6 meeting. A request by the Elks for an $800 grant for Ladies Barrel Racing prize money was made. Council agreed, taking the money from the council contingency fund. The amount is similar to that requested and granted last year. Keremeos Elks also requested use of village barricades and cones to allow for a traffic detour during the Elks Rodeo Parade on Monday, May 20. Council agreed to the request, also asking the rodeo committee to contact the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure for road closure approval, with an addititonal request to contact local emergency organizations to inform them of the road closure. Council also authorized Keremeos Community Church to erect a tent in Memorial Park for a Sunday “Cowboy Church” service on May 19. Council authorized the following proclamations at the May 6 meeting:

Wrongful dismissal case delayed again By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com
Former Keremeos firefighter Doug MacLeod is finding that the wheels of justice are not only slow, but perhaps not completely round either. His day in court was deferred once again on May 9 when proceedings were put off due to a scheduling conflict in a Penticton courtroom. Presiding Judge Meg Shaw told the court that a criminal case would take precedence over MacLeod’s small claims dispute. “I’m going to do something unusual,” Judge Shaw told the court, asking both MacLeod and Regional District Okanagan Similkameen counsellor Melanie Cannon if they wished to try and start their case later in the day, if it appeared that the criminal case could be resolved early enough. Cannon informed the judge that she would no longer be counsel for the RDOS after June. She further informed the court Doug MacLeod that she wished to present an application to have the case dismissed over a statute of limitations rule. The regional district wished to present the argument that MacLeod was a month late in filing his claim, at seven months. The two parties met with Judge Shaw again on Thursday afternoon. Shaw reserved judgement until next week on the dismissal application. Should she deny it, a date will be set for continuation of the case. Both parties expressed frustration with the number of delays encountered in bringing the matter to a decision. MacLeod has been seeking a court decision for more than a year. He was terminated by the Keremeos Volunteer Fire Department in March of 2011, but the firing was later deemed illegal. His case came before the regional district board in August of 2011 where a decision was legally made to fire him without cause. The long, drawn out proceedings have proven time consuming and costly, MacLeod admitted.
Participating in your insurance can pay Having life insurance coverage is a very important decision for you and your beneficiaries. But there are many life insurance products to choose from. Which is right for you? Which is the best fit for your personal situation, budget and longer-term financial, retirement and estate goals? It could be Participating Whole Life insurance (also known as Par Whole Life) if this profile looks like you: ◘My tolerance for investment risk is low ◘I want protection for my lifetime with guaranteed premiums, guaranteed cash values and a guaranteed basic death benefit that will be tax-free to my beneficiaries. ◘I want an investment component included with my insurance coverage that provides the potential for tax-deferred growth, a level premium and for the policy to become paid up over a number of years. ◘I don’t want the burden of the day-to-day management of the investment component of my life insurance policy. ◘I want built-in tax-advantaged savings I can easily and quickly draw on if I need the funds for personal or business reasons (although I do recognize that any cash values I withdraw from the policy may be subject to tax). Participating life insurance combines life insurance with an investment component that also pays dividends. Here’s how participating whole life (Par) works: ◘Your premiums go into an account, called the PAR account, along with the premiums paid by everyone else holding a participating policy with the life insurance company you choose. ◘The premiums you pay and the policy coverages are calculated based on long-term assumptions for death claims, investment returns and other factors. Your premiums, the guaranteed cash surrender value schedule and the basic death benefit are based on these factors and are guaranteed for the life of your policy. Paid up additions, determined by the dividends you have paid, are eligible to earn future dividends – that’s what provides for the compounding of a Whole Life policy – a great feature, and it’s tax sheltered. ◘The pooled premiums within the PAR account of all policyholders who own PAR policies are

MANAGING Your Money invested in a balanced portfolio managed by investment professionals. ◘When a profit is earned on a participating policy, a significant portion is distributed to the policyholders in the form of a dividend that is credited to your policy and owned by you. Although dividends are not guaranteed, participating policies have historically earned profits and returned dividends. You can use the dividends to increase the policy’s cash value on a tax-advantaged basis, withdraw the cash from your policy or borrow against it, buy additional insurance without the need to prove your insurability, or to lower your out-of-pocket premiums. Participating insurance products offer choice and flexibility. Talk to your professional advisor to find out if your personal and financial profile is up to PAR.

Campers are setting up their sites beside the swollen Similkameen River, in spite of the obvious dangers of rising waters. Flow rates appear to be easing this week with cooler temperatures.
Snowpack increases with cool April temperatures By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com
April began with a hot spell, resulting in some melt of the Similkameen snowpack before the weather transitioned into a cool, unsettled pattern for the remainder of the month. The Similkameen snowpack actually increased through April. Typically snow packs transition from accumulating snow to melting snow around the middle of April, however this transition was delayed this season by one to two weeks. The Similkameen snow pack is currently at 100 per cent of normal, compared to 79 per cent at last month’s snow pack measurement. With a slight delay in the onset of the snow melt season, and small increases in the size of the snow pack in some regions, there have been small increases in the seasonal flood risk across the province. Seasonal flood risk is moderately elevated in the North Thompson, South Thompson, Okanagan-Kettle and Liard Rivers. Seasonal flood risk is high in the Upper Fraser basin. Elsewhere in the province, seasonal flood risk is considered to be normal It is important to note that snow pack is only one element that influences whether flooding occurs during the spring freshet. Of critical importance are how the snow melts and how much, and when, precipitation is received during the snow melt period. While there an increased likelihood of flooding in areas with higher than normal snow packs, flooding is possible in any region given adverse weather conditions (prolonged heat and/or heavy precipitation). Seasonal flows are expected to be near normal throughout most of the province. The start of May brought with it a number of persistent high pressure systems with temperatures that have been well above normal, and in some cases reaching new record levels. This greatly increased the snowmelt in the Similkameen watershed, especially last week. The current weather forecasts from Environment Canada are indicating seasonal temperatures through this week for the region, with a slight cooling and chance of wet weather towards the end of the weekend and into early next week.
The current 30-day temperature anomaly outlook (issued April 30 for the month of May) from Environment Canada indicates an increased likelihood for above normal temperature for southern British Columbia. Longer-range (three-month) seasonal forecasts from Environment Canada are also suggesting a higher likelihood of above normal temperature and below normal precipitation over the May-July period, specifically in the southern half of the province. The Similkameen River was discharging at the rate of 416 cubic metres per second as of early Thursday, May 9, up from 177 cms measured on Sunday, May 5. Thursday’s flow rate (416 cms) is 10 cms short of the two year average return, that is, a flow rate expected on average one year in every two. Earlier this week, at least two itinerant campsites were located extremely close to the fast flowing Similkameen River on the site of the former Farmworkers Campground near the cement plant in Keremeos. A high streamflow advisory was issued for the Similkameen and its major tributaries (Tulameen, Ashnola) on May 8. River levels began to stabilize after Monday, May 13 (when the peak flow so far this year of 461 cfs was recorded), and with cooler temperatures this week, it appears that the Similkameen has peaked. With temperatures forecasted to remain at normal levels for the week, river levels may continue to ease. For more info, contact: http://bcrfc.env.gov.bc.ca/bulletins/watersupply/current.htm

Publisher: Don Kendal 605 7th Avenue, Box 130, Keremeos, B.C. V0X 1N0
Editorial Nothing fair about slow judicial process What is a fair price to pay for justice in B.C. today? It’s a question that former Keremeos firefighter Doug MacLeod must be asking after having his court date rescheduled yet again last Thursday at the inactive Penticton Law Courts. The frustration was evident in all the parties involved in MacLeod’s wrongful dismissal claim against the Regional District Okanagan Similkameen. He has already been to court four times, and, truthfully, is no closer to a verdict than he was before these proceedings started. In the meantime, in addition to legal costs, his expenses are climbing through the roof. As an example, last Thursday was supposed to be his trial date. He showed up in Penticton with a number of witnesses from Keremeos, all of whom left their jobs, only to find that they had wasted their time, energy and resources. On the other side of the courtroom, the RDOS continues to ramp up costs for their defense, with a lawyer hired out of Vancouver also being paid by taxpayers’ dollars for each court appearance. “It’s the way the system works,” MacLeod wrote in an email explaining the present status of the case, but we disagree. It’s the way the system doesn’t work, is a more truthful explanation of the process. With all the wisdom and intellect that should be available to provide sober insight and solutions to problems in the judicial system in B.C., it seems to us that it should be a reasonable expectation to get a ruling in a basic legal action such as this. It’s a small claims issue, no less - and should be dealt with through a minimum of delay and expense. The fact that this isn’t happening indicates to us that nowhere near enough is being done to ensure fair and speedy justice to the citizens of B.C.

Things you can’t say in elections By Tom Fletcher Black Press Another election campaign has come and gone, with the ritual posturing of political parties and most news media searching for anything they can portray as a conflict. Now comes the time to wonder why not enough people cared, or informed themselves about the real problems of running this $40 billion corporation called the B.C. government. Why would they, when the whole thing is presented as a combination of beauty contest and sports event, with endless discussion of polls and “attack ads” and who’s ahead and what’s the score? Again we have seen the truth of former prime minister Kim Campbell’s observation that elections are no time to talk about serious issues. Indeed, there are some things you can’t speak of at all. Peace River North MLA Pat Pimm caused a stir at a candidates’
debate when he referred to constituents’ concerns that disabled children can cause difficulties in classrooms. He didn’t say classrooms should be segregated, although that’s a discussion worth having. He didn’t deny the need for more support for special needs kids. But his opponents immediately portrayed it that way, and media seized on the conflict despite the factual inaccuracy. West Vancouver-Capilano MLA Ralph Sultan had a similar experience when he referred to his study of poverty in that affluent area. He noted that there was a high correlation between single parenthood and kids in poverty. Picking on single mums, his detractors exclaimed, and that’s what got reported. The B.C. Conservatives kicked their BoundarySimilkameen candidate out of the party because he wrote an article saying women shouldn’t choose to be single mothers. You can talk about child poverty, as long as
you only discuss it based on federal statistics that do not measure poverty. Christy Clark started doing this as soon as she became B.C. Liberal leader, one of several issues where she dispensed with the facts and tried to copy a popular NDP stance instead. She was all about families, which can of course be single people, single parents or pretty well anything you want them to be. In fact the decline of the traditional family and the abdication of responsibility by many parents, fathers in particular, are central factors in the problem of poor and neglected children. But you can’t talk about that, at least not during elections. Whole areas of political discussion have devolved into euphemisms that are chosen because they can’t be defined. Everybody’s in favour of “affordable housing,” for instance. What they won’t admit is that this is code for subsidized housing, because then they would have to talk about how much the

subsidy is, and who has to pay for it. Good grief, that might raise the question of whether the state should be taking money away from some people and giving it to others so they can live where they otherwise couldn’t afford to live. We even have rules preventing the media from reporting polls on election day. People might be influenced by this, you see. If you tell them Party X is far ahead, they might stay home and mow the lawn instead. If you tell them someone is making a comeback, they might change their vote because they want to be on the winning side, or the one that has “momentum.” Just like any other sport. The news media are steadily losing influence with the public. There are many factors involved, including the vast array of information sources that are available at most people’s fingertips. Another factor is treating the public like they’re idiots.

Wilf Miller recalls some old times To the Editor: I was born in 1921. At that time we owned a 1921 Buick McLaughlin. In the early ‘20s we could no longer afford to pay 33 cents per gallon for gasoline, so we made a horse drawn vehicle out of the Buick. We blamed the hard times on the Prime Minister, R.B. Bennett, so our horse drawn car was called a Bennett Wagon. We could not afford leather for the lines, so we made rope out of binder twine and these were Bennett lines. Everything we could not afford was home made and called “Bennett this” and “Bennett that”. We used to sell our cream - thick cream for $3 for a five gallon can. We sold eggs for $3 for a 30 dozen crate of eggs. We went to school in overalls that only had the knees out and were patched. The ones we wore around home were embarrassing because they didn’t cover all our parts. We were lucky. We ate the food we grew. The town kids were in relief or they would not
have eaten. I was just a teenager then and I used a six volt generator and made a propeller out of a two by six - six feet long and wired our house with second hand wire and put electricity (six volt) in our house. Well, in 1939 - 40 I got tired of that and moved to B.C., after meeting my cousin here. We were in love - madly - but in those days they would not allow marriage, so I married her close friend. After many years I lost my dear wife, so three or four years ago my cousin lost her husband and so now we are married and can spend the last few years we have left together. I became a first class mechanic, carpenter, electrician, musician and businessman, I ran locomotives, you name it. I’ve had a very interesting life and at 92 years, a writer. As ever, Wilf Miller, Keremeos
MP Atamanenko discusses First Nation issues By Alex Atamanenko, MP, BC Southern Interior FIRST NATIONS – Part I We have seen a fair amount of coverage in the news lately on First Nations’ issues. In this first installment on the First Nations, I think it might be helpful to put this into an historical context. The situation of Métis, Inuit, and First Nations peoples is one of the most complex and persistent challenges for the federal government. Successive Liberal and Conservative governments have failed to establish an agreement on the place of indigenous peoples in the Canadian federation, and their average living conditions remain far below other Canadians. Aboriginal issues capture mainstream public interest in a cyclical way, when a crisis emerges. The IdleNoMore movement (INM) arose as a protest against changes to the Navigable Waters Protection Act, which were part of the Conservative’s 2012 budget implementation bill, but quickly became a nation-wide peaceful protest movement that has galvanized aboriginal and non-aboriginal Canadians to demand change. Popular pressure and a hunger strike prompted a high-level meeting with the Prime Minister and the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) in January, after which the Prime Minister agreed to provide oversight of the file. AFN National Chief Shawn Atleo’s decision to attend the meeting on the Prime Minister’s terms was controversial among First Nations, and revealed a divide between First Nations leadership and a grassroots movement increasingly frustrated with the status quo. The aboriginal population represents approximately four per cent of Canada’s overall population. According to Statistics Canada’s 2006 Census, there are approximately 1.7 million people who identify as having some First Nations, Inuit or Métis heritage in Canada, among whom almost 1.2 million report an “aboriginal identity”, marking a stronger attachment to that heritage. Of this number, almost 400,000 are Métis, 50,000 are Inuit and the others (700,000) have “North American Indian” background. Half of aboriginal peoples in Canada are under the age of 25, and the population is growing at 2.5 times the rate of the rest of the country. This makes Aboriginal peoples the youngest
and fastest growing population segment in the country, which will increase the significance of this demographic over time. In 1969, the Trudeau Government published a white paper on “Indian policy” that recommended scrapping the Indian Act, abolishing the Indian Affairs Department’s special programs, and transferring Indian lands to Indian people and away from ownership by reserves. Aboriginal leaders denounced the white paper as a recipe for assimilation. They said it rejected their special standing in Canada as the original occupiers of the land. The federal NDP joined them in this position. Trudeau relented and in 1982, existing aboriginal and treaty rights were recognized and affirmed in Section 35 of the Constitution. Despite several government policy moves towards recognizing self-government, successive Liberal and Conservative governments have failed to make progress on establishing a true “nation-to-nation” relationship. Following the 1990 Oka Crisis, the Federal government created a Royal Commission on aboriginal Peoples (RCAP). In 1996, RCAP made over 400 recommendations including that the Indian Act be replaced by a third order of government for indigenous peoples within Canada. This was welcomed by a majority of indigenous peoples as well as the federal NDP. Progress on implementing the recommendations has been very slow, and most is left undone. In 2005, just as they were heading to certain defeat after a decade in power, the Martin government put forward the Kelowna Accord. In the accord they pledged a $5.1-billion budget plan to address the low standard of living of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples in Canada so that it would be equal to that of all other Canadians. When the Harper government came to power, it promised to meet the targets of the accord, but has failed to do so. In 2008, the federal government issued an official apology to the survivors of residential schools. In his speech, Prime Minister Stephen Harper acknowledged the important role NDP Leader Jack Layton had played in pushing for the apology to take place. (To be continued in First Nations Part II)

Above: The Similkameen Garden Club had its annual plant sale May 4. This annual event takes place in front of the Credit Union on the first Saturday of May. The area was a hub of activity as this great stretch of warm weather is giving a boost of energy to get into the spirit of gardening. Members have been in the mood for gardening since Earth Day when they cleaned out the downtown flower planters and prepared the big flower bed at the Info Center. They’ll be planting flowers soon after the Long Weekend. Spring has arrived in Keremeos!

OK Falls Anglican church celebrating 50 years Contributed by Warden Karl Crosby St. Barbara’s Anglican Church in Okanagan Falls is celebrating its 50th anniversary on Sunday, May 26 exactly a half century to the day after its official opening in 1963. After years of meeting in the dining room of the old Alexandra Hotel and in the Okanagan Falls United Church which was moved from the Fairview townsite in 1929, the Anglican community decided to build a church of its own on two lots donated by Major Hugh Fraser of Okanagan Falls. Hugh Leir donated the building materials and Deputy Warden Tom Worth designed the original church and was a leading figure in its construction. The Right Reverend Bishop William Coleman of the Diocese of Kootenay officially opened the new church on May 26, 1963. The first priest was Reverend John Stainer followed by the Rev. Des Holt, Canon Alan Jackson, Rev. Brock Lupton, Rev. Randy Wood, Rev. Hugo Jackson, Rev. Virginia Briant, Rev. Doug Stanley, Rev. Nico Montalbetti and current incumbent Rev. Rick Paulin. Several other priests served St. Barbara’s in a temporary capacity over the years, most notably Rev. Derek Salter. St. Barbara’s received its name and some of its furnishings from St. Barbara’s Church at the Copper Mountain townsite near Princeton. Initially, there was discussion about moving the entire church from Copper Mountain to Okanagan Falls but it proved to be impractical so only the pews and the original chalice were relocated. In 1970, the building loan was paid off and the church mortgage was burned at a St. Patrick’s Day supper held in the Legion hall.

St. Barbara’s as it appears today. In 1968 Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church began holding services at St. Barbara’s, and for the past several years an annual combined community service of lessons and carols has been hosted in December by the United Church, Our Lady of Lourdes, the Community Church and St. Barbara’s. To meet the needs of the thriving Anglican parish and congregation, Canon Alan Jackson arranged the purchase of a portable classroom from the OK Falls elementary school to serve as a church hall in 1982. Over the past 10 years a number of building projects have been undertaken including a new church foyer, office, washrooms and roof and kitchen upgrading. To celebrate its 50 years in the community, the public is invited to attend a special service followed by a wine and cheese reception and cake cutting ceremony commencing at 1 p.m. on Sunday, May 26 at St. Barbara’s Anglican Church at 1039 Willow Street in Okanagan Falls. The service will be conducted by the Right Reverent John Privett, Bishop of Kootenay assisted by Rev. Rick Paulin. Guests will include former priests, representatives from other churches in the South Okanagan and original members of the parish.
New South Similkameen Art Society forming Contributed On Thursday, April 11 both members and guests of the newly formed South Similkameen Art Society (SSAS) held their first meet and greet. Parking was at bit of a premium at Gibson House but the air was filled with happy greetings and laughter as local artists from Cawston, Keremeos, and Olalla, differing in age and experience but solidly connected through their mutual love of the arts, gathered for the first event of the newly formed art society. On hand to greet the artists and field questions about this fledgling non-profit society were executive members Amber Herbison, President; Lisa Zbinden, Vice-President; and Julie Hinton, Secretary/Treasurer. Artists introduced themselves and presented examples of their art work or opened their portfolios for viewing by all. Art pieces ranging from wood carvings to fabric arts to graffiti arts to acrylic and oil paintings were presented and admired. Also attending were actors, photographers, and even an award winning author and the society is calling out to musicians, dancers and potters to also come join in the fun. Annual membership dues for SSAS have been kept at a modest $20 per annum with even further reduced rates for teens. Info online at http://ssartssociety.blogspot.ca/ Next SSAS event upcoming on May 25.
J & C Yard Care
SSAS presents Art In The Valley Faire on May 25 in the Keremeos Legion Hall. Tables are free to members, so become a member today and book your space to show/sell your artwork or present your music or acting talent. There will be paintings, drawings, carvings, stickers, jewelry, fabric art quilts, and a clown for the kids in their play area. Also planned are short skits/plays and acoustic music – calling all musicians and actors. Want more info? Watch for posters around Keremeos and Cawston, visit the blogspot, or phone Julie Hinton at 499-5199.

Storms on Saturn
NASA recently released a most amazing image. It had been sent back by the Cassini spacecraft, which is currently exploring the planet Saturn and its many moons. The image shows a huge storm, like a hurricane here on Earth but much bigger, about 20 times larger than the ones we get. Unlike ours, this storm is sitting right over one of Saturn’s poles and seems to have been there for years. Big, long-lived storms are business
as usual for Jupiter and Saturn, the largest planets in our Solar System. The best-known and biggest storm is on Jupiter, the fifth planet out from the Sun. We live on the third. This storm is known as the Great Red Spot. It is a storm vortex large enough to drop the Earth into. It is also very longlived compared with the storms we have. It was there when we first pointed telescopes at the planet. With a small telescope you can see it for yourself. Jupiter is getting low in the west in the evenings but is easy to find. Your telescope will show you a tan disc crossed by belts of darker cloud, and the Great Red Spot as a large blob. If conditions are good enough you will see other storms
too, as lighter or darker spots. Saturn, the sixth planet from the Sun, is high in the eastern sky these evenings and is easy to observe. If you can draw your eyes away from the spectacular system of rings surrounding the planet, you’ll see a somewhat fainter version of Jupiter, a tan disc crossed by cloud belts. Since weather, including storms are all driven by solar energy, we would expect them to be smaller and weaker on planets further from the Sun. Certainly this is the case for the next two planets further out from the Sun: Uranus and Neptune, respectively the seventh and eighth planets. In this case, why do Jupiter and Saturn have such dramatic weather compared with ours, on the third planet from the Sun? The reason
is that in addition to the energy input from the Sun, weather patterns and storms are moulded by a planet’s rotation. It’s easy to visualize how here on Earth the heat of the tropics leads to warming of the air, making it rise. Cooler air flows in from the north and south to replace it. High above the ground, the warm air flows northward and southward, where it cools and sinks, and then flows along the ground back towards the tropics to repeat the cycle. This simple idea is upset by our planet’s rotation. At the equator the rotation of the Earth leads to the land and atmosphere moving eastward at about 1,670 km/hr. At the poles that velocity is zero. This changes the movement of the atmosphere completely, generating spiralling weather systems and storms. Jupiter and Saturn are larger than the Earth, and they rotate
faster; their days are only about ten hours long. A point on Jupiter’s equator is moving at 46,000 km/ hr and on Saturn, 36,000 km/hr. This rapid rotation stretches the cloud into belts and spawns enormous storms. Moreover, with no land masses to disrupt the air flows, these storms can persist for a long time. If our world had the sort of weather we see on Jupiter and Saturn, we would probably not be here to comment on it. Jupiter is still unmissable, but is getting low in the western sky in the evening. Saturn rises before sunset and is well up in the east by dark. The Moon will reach first quarter on the 18th.
