Wind Chill-Heat Index
Exactly what is this formula that they never tell us on the news for the wind chill factor and the heat index? (too long to say, wind chill: temp & wind, heat index: temp & humidity)
Weather Roundup
Spy satellite can track storms, greenhouse effect could be bad for plants
Coastal Hurricanes
Why aren't there hurricanes on the West Coast? (Water isn't warm enough to sustain them.)
Lightning, Snakes and Wasps
Lightning prefers cities, finicky snakes and wasps prefer flowers
Contrails and Climate
Jet contrails act like clouds in the atmosphere, changing climate
Storms, Beer and Blood
Predicting tropical cyclones, a powder that stops bleeding, and freeze-dried beer flavoring.
GPS Weather Prediction
Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite signals can be used to measure atmospheric conditions.
Cold Mountain Air
If hot air rises, why is it colder at the top of mountains? (because hot air cools as it rises)
Dangerous Hail
Why don't you ever hear about people getting hurt by hail? (Chances of getting hit are low)
Atmospheric Mixing
Why don't the different gases in atmosphere separate into layers? (wind keeps them mixed)
