Do the facts that a new red spot (Red Spot Jr. or Little Red Spot)appeared on Jupiter, and record breaking hurricanes (Wilma for example) recently appeared on Earth say anything about the fate of our solar system or our planet, in the short term or long term? And can they be explained in terms of solar phenomena?

I didn't ask about warming. I asked about storm systems and hurricanes. If they ARE caused by global warming, then please back that up with evidence. The Earth and Jupiter have one thing in common, the sun. There are other things that come from the sun other than heat, like the solar wind (interstellar gasses) for example (not to be confused for "wind" on a planet).

Thanks for the answers, so far. But my curiosity hasn't been cleared up yet. So far there is "no best answer", but Yahoo expects me to pick "best answer" only. Certainly a weakness of the system.

Thanks, though for answering. It is much appreciated.

I've got no qualifications in planetary meteorology, but I suspect they are. If the Earth had no land masses, a very deep atmosphere and a fast rotation rate, like Jupiter, our tropical storms would be much longer lived. The Great Red Spot has been around at least 300 years.

i assume you will would desire to worry approximately each and every of the days earlier and after 12/21/12 pondering the 'end of time' merely isn't anticipated by human beings. "Thou shalt now not understand the day or hour" (some component such as that interior the bible). Now, i'm not a non secular person yet i assume that we can by no capacity understand 'whilst'. besides, what share doomsday predictions have there been? i've got faith that the date itself seems iffy besides. I advise c'mon 12/21/12 - little bit of a twist of destiny that the 'a million' and '2' figures take place for use, and in that order. Have we quite reached a component the place each and every typical disaster makes us scream 'doomsday'? confident, i understand that long island is merely slightly a rarity although although. Did we assume of doomsday whilst the 2004 Indonesian Tsunami hit, or Japan's? How with regard to the Haiti or Christchurch Earthquake? Or the Australian Bushfires and floods? 2012 DOOMSDAY won't take place!!!!!!

what you are suggesting is a solar source for global warming, based on the assumption the the 2Nd red spot on Jupiter indicates heating of Jupiter, which is certainly not a result of human burning of fossil fuels.
I read of no theory on this subject. I'm not even sure if the 2Nd red spot indicates a warming effect.
but it's an interesting idea.
