While the IT outage is causing headaches for travelers, it may also have an unexpected effect on the climate: clearer skies and maybe lower temperatures this evening, according to David Travis, a scientist who has performed pioneering research on how jets can affect the weather. Planes flying at high altitudes frequently leave contrails, the billowy streaks created when jet engines dump water vapor and pollution into the atmosphere.
