Introduction In my recent article Zinkova 2020 I discussed the possibility of the space weather affecting some aspects of the Titanic’s disaster. Some parts of my paper did not make it through the review process because as one of the reviewers stated they were too speculative. Today I would like...

How did weather conditions affect or contribute to the Titanic disaster?

Is it true that on this voyage Mr. Ismay took notes and decided that changes to the Titanic had to be made and this is why he sailed on the Titanic a few months later? Jan 18th 1912 New York Tribune .

How would the Titanic battle the rough seas if she had not sunk? Did the Titanic have means to stabilize herself against the rough seas? Would the elevators be out of bounds until the weather had improved? Did they later adapt the Olympic to counteract the motion of the waves, or would she...

Dear all, Here is a weather chart on that day, released recently. http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1912/19120414.pdf Notice that as Titanic was steered westward, she crossed a cold front and a cold anti-cyclone affected the ship as temperature dropped by northerly winds. It is...

Here in the states I've been seeing promos for the new season of "When Weather Changed History" and it looks like there will be one episode featuring the Titanic. The season starts in October, so those of us who get TWC need to keep a lookout and give everyone a head's up.

I am working on a Weather Channel documentary on the weather present prior to the sinking of the Titanic and I am looking for suggestions of experts, descendants and books discussing the weather prior, during and after. When Weather Makes History is an innovative Weather Channel series...

I'm not sure I'd consider an iceberg to be "weather," but apparently the folks at The Weather Channel do; they've picked Titanic's sinking as number 82 on their 100 Biggest Weather Moments.

Hello, I am a Meteorologist and stumbled upon and nice web site that shows the daily weather maps all the way back to the 1800's. Here is the map for April 15, 1912 12Z: http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/dwm/1912/19120415.djvu Note the broad area of surface high pressure in Titanic's position...

How about a thread for photos of ships in rough weather?

Hey All, Was it really raining as depicted by James Cameron in the movie Titanic when the survivors arrive at New York? Thanks! Sahand

Here is a new one of Olympic in a rough Atlantic sea:

There was a lot of speculation on a recent thread that centered on the weather the following day. I think this would be an interesting hypothetical angle to cover, since what if Titanic was still afloat, but the weather had taken a bad turn for the worse later in the following day, like many...

I was looking at a picture from when Titanic set sail and I was wondering, what was the weather like that day? Was it bright and sunny as depicted in James Camerons "Titanic" or was it foggy and cloudy, just a little thing I was wondering about. Thanks, Trent

Being a meteorologist, I am interested in knowing if anyone has come across a site that provides the weather map for the fateful night. I searched and can't seem to find anything but microfiche or links to order such maps. I am especially curious to see how moist the lower atmosphere could have...

There are conflicting stories about the weather during the voyage. On April 12, Daisy Speddon's diary said rainy. Jakob Johannson's said sunny. On the 14th Johannson said it rained part of the day. Any definitive ideas on the weather?
