Humans have tried to predict the weather for millions of years. Our ancestors monitored changes in their environment along with the behaviour of animals to help them predict the weather. Through development of our understanding‚ of the atmospheric patterns and the relationship to weather dynamics‚ today it is much easier to forecast a more accurate weather prediction. To better understand the mechanisms which control our weather and climate‚ we have to look at the Earth’s atmosphere. In particular

What? And How? 1. How is lightning formed? Cumulonimbus clouds must become electrically charged therefore‚ in most rain clouds the bottom of the rain cloud is negatively charged and the top is positively charged. Lightning is created as a discharge of built up energy due to the separation of positive and negative charges which are generated inside the thunderstorm. 2. How are tornadoes formed? Tornadoes form in unusually violent thunderstorms when there is sufficient instability‚ and wind shear

known fact to the people residing in UK and other parts of Western Europe‚ that we experience very unpredictable seasons and weather‚ throughout the year. But‚ what’s circulating in air among people of UK is about the miserable “Wet Summers”; that we have face.

Fair or Not Fair As once said by Nelson Mandela “A good leader can engage in a debate frankly and thoroughly‚ knowing that at the end he and the other side must be closer‚ and thus emerge stronger. You don’t have that idea when you are arrogant‚ superficial‚ and uninformed.” Only when you meet that criteria can you be considered a good leader‚ however in Sophocles’ book Antigone once a crime has been committed not only is the guilty killer put on trial but whether or not Creon is a good leader is

Weather “ Weather is the condition of the climate in a particular place at a particular time.” The weather is all around us‚ all the time. It is an important part of our lives and one that we cannot control. Instead the weather often controls how and where we live‚ what we do‚ what we wear and what we eat. Someone who studies the weather is called a meteorologist. Weather predictions are made by forecasters who you see on television. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WEATHER AND CLIMATE Weather

effect‚ combines with the heat imbalance founded on Earth to create distinct global wind systems that transport colder air to warmer areas and warmer air to colder areas. The end result is the balancing of heat energy on Earth. Jet Streams: Earth’s weather is strongly influenced by atmospheric conditioned and events that occur at the boundaries between wind zones. On either side of these imaginary boundaries‚ both surface and upper-level air differs greatly in temperature and pressure. Remember that
