    I think that the only part of the mystery solved so far was that of where the student at
    Northern Virginia Community College who posted it had lifted the picture from before
    adding the "Isabel" caption to it.

    In looking at the NWS web site where it was originally posted, it is obvious that the
    NWS label of "Cyclone Graham (Pacific) 2002" could not be accurate. With the picture
    showing a Force 2 or 3 sea state along with clear skies on the edge of the cloud, it
    could not be a tropical cyclone being shown in the picture, even if the cloud does makes
    a very impressive picture.

    Does anyone have a good guess as to what the picture at
    www.wrh.noaa.gov/Portland/images/cyclonegraham02.jpg really shows? Is this the edge of a
    cold front or the edge of an isolated thunder bumper?
