Sept. 13 — An old Earth joke, told from any locale, goes like this: If you don’t like the weather, wait a minute. Even a shopkeeper in Albuquerque once said that to me, during a 5-day visit in which nary a cloud appeared.STILL, THIS entrenched sentiment reflects our planet’s frequently fickle weather and its dramatic extremes.
On Jupiter, however, things are much more stable. Bands of clouds last for years and circle the planet at more than 300 mph. Storms that would dwarf a terrestrial hurricane drone on for centuries.

It would certainly make for great practice building houses or skyscrapers that can withstand high winds.

Yeah, I think hang-gliding in Jupiter's atmosphere would be a blast!
