flea68, thank you for posting this, otherwise I wouldn't have found anything regarding this on ATS and would have likewise began another thread on
it.
Your account of events over the skies of Sydney differs quite a bit from what I experienced - I witnessed 3 contrails/chemtrails along with the
remnants of another over the period of March 28-29. My vantage point was from Western Sydney on Saturday the 28th and the innerwest where I live
(directly beneath a major flightpath) on Sunday the 29th. And I was able to document the few that I saw.
I would like to preface what I say by noting that I've never actually been interested in chemtrails until that weekend, and I only seriously looked
into the subject after seeing these 'formations' and witnessing the susequent wild weather over the following 3 days.
Here are the video and pics highlighting what I saw over that period.
The first instance shown in the video happened that Saturday evening (7:05pm according to my video file). I stepped outside and happened to see the
long 'contrail' lit by the setting sun - it stretched from horizon to horizon, South to North almost perpendicular to the major flight paths
stretching over Western Sydney. I only had my phone to capture video at the time.
The following afternoon at 3:20pm, I just finished bathing one of my dogs and stepped outside only to see another, much thicker 'contrail.' The sky
was nearly cloudless at the time. I live directly underneath a major flightpath, and I had never seen a curving flightpath much higher and
perpendicular to the normal flightpath. It stretched West to East and finished at the coastline (as you can see in the video - at :31 sec in, you can
see where the contrail ends over the East coast in opposition to the proper flightpath).
The batteries in my HD camera were flat, so I grabbed my Canon Ixus and took some video. 20 minutes after first seeing it, the contrail had widened to
form a thin layer of cloud which reminded me of pulling apart a cotton ball to make a thin sheet of fuzz.
Later at 4:47 pm I saw another - this time there were high wispy clouds which were thicker. It was angled slightly differently, but still in
opposition to the normal flight path.
I only recorded this because I thought it was odd, and I wanted the video just in case someone else also noticed and thought it to be odd.
Then Monday morning came, and the weather had turned overnight (as it normally does), yet the forecast the night before only called for possible
showers during the week. That morning's forecast called for heavy rain and possibly torrential downpours for late Monday and Tuesday.
I found very conspicuous that I would witness contrails/chemtrails
whatever you want to call them (which are supposed to manipulate the
weather), and then the weather subsequently turns sharply for the worse. Luckily I work for a group of newspapers and had plenty of video
documentation to illustrate the resulting weather.
I also noticed other changes in myself (and those around me) over the following days - mood, forgetfullness, etc, but that's obviously less concrete
than weather changes witnessed by 4 million other people.
