Hi! I have a screenshot of the weather and my question is why does the dewpoint follow the air temperature, both up and down? (email me at ilupariello@ccsuvt.org for the picture) This will get me extra credit so your help is greatly appreciated!

Asked by Izzy about 9 years ago

Hi Izzy-Happy to look at the picture of you post it someplace. The dewpoint doesn't really follow the temperature. It is a measure of the amount of moisture (water vapor) in the air. The colder the air gets the drier it so the dewpoint goes down. Warmer air can hold more water vapor so the dewpoint can rise. Great question, thanks.

hello I am working on heat transfer question as I am in University for Mechanical Engineering. How would I solve for the wind chill if all I am given is a temperature of outside, and the speed of wind. We can assume anything ex: Area of skin.
Thanks

Those are the two data points you need, Anthony. You can find the formula here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_chill

I live in Tanzania in East Africa. I was driving through Sumbawanga in the west of the country and I think I saw a double tornado. We have dust devils, but I've never heard of tornados. Please let me know if I can send you the photos to confirm?

Asked by Hally over 10 years ago

Hi, Hally. Multiple tornadoes can occur within one thunderstorm complex. I would do a Google search for some pictures.

What is the range of temperature when an average temperature is given? eg. a stated average low of 40 degrees, what is the average range of actual low temperature 10 degrees? etc...

Asked by johnemmerich over 9 years ago

Interesting question. There is no range of temperatures. The average low for a given day is figured using the temperature on a given date using the historical record, usually between 20 and 100 years depending on the availability of the data.

I was wondering if you could tell me the best course of action to take during a tornado if I live on the 3rd floor of my apartment building. I don't know any neighbors and there is no storm shelter for this complex.where do I go? :(

Asked by Emily over 9 years ago

Might be an opportunity to meet a neighbor, Emily. If you must stay in your apartment the best place is a small space toward the center of the unit, bathroom, hallway, closet. The idea is to have as many walls between you and outside an smaller spaces have better structural integrity. Something to cover your head, like couch cushion or bike helmet. Great question, thanks.
