Orographic Lift is demonstrated in many places in the world, but few examples are as clear as those in the United States
This is a typically chauvinistic statement by an American. On the eastern seaboard of Australia it's just as obviously demonstrated, and probably on the western side too. In fact I'd say that almost anywhere that a large ocean meets land shows this just as "clearly". Ireland for example. This sentence is POV and ignorant. Let's come up with something a bit more universal, please. Graham 09:49, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

I've compiled a short list of discrepancies about this image at Image_talk:Wavecloudsduval.jpg. If someone really knows what this is, could you please fix the ambiguity and discrepancies between the pages? (I'd consider the discussion on the image's talk page to be the appropriate primary discussion place for this issue.) -- Kaze0010 03:02, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
May I suggest this be changed to the Front Range of the Rockies. It's a minor point but I was confused with the location of the Front Wall until I noticed the credit giving the photographers location when the photo was taken. Front Range is the commonly accepted description.
Someone added and then removed the the image of Machu Picchu shown here to the article. It is an intersing formation: Whitehead's Mountain Meteorology does not identify what it is. Any experts out there? Williamborg ( Bill) 03:57, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
I think the section on atmospheric waves should merged with
Lee waves. I would prefer that the term 'orographic lift' is confined to the rising air in front of a slope. Does anyone disagree?

lee waves.
