If someone urinates in a lake in Africa can clouds bring pee rain to The United States?

Asked by maxwellmachine (66points) November 3rd, 2010

just wondering if someone pees in a lake or body of water can the sun evaporate that urine and transfer it by clouds all the way to The
United States?

Well, that is ridiculous, because the urine would be so diluted in the lake that it would not still be identifiable.

The sun would evaporate the water only. The urea, uric acid and creatinine would stay in the lake.

I don’t know the answer to this question, but I definitely think that pee guy should get capital punishment.

Or is it corporal punishment? Never mind.

I don’t think even clouds could hold it that long.

acid rain?

I seem to recall hearing that normal rain the US has the pH of tomato juice. According to this, fog in California has the pH of lemon juice.

Given weather currents, even if pee were to evaporate, the odds of if coming down as rain in the US is quite small.

Where do you think your pee goes when you flush the toilet?
