i sit at my window and i watches the sun slowly set. as the sun goes slowly down, where does it goes? how far down? i always wanted to know this-just curious!

The earth is spinning, so it goes under your feet and shows up again behind you at sunrise. Same way it goes across the sky during the day!

Hi,
my name is Wyatt in i was just wondering if you could get a meteorology job with any thing below a bachelor's degree like a certificate in college?

Asked by wyatt almost 8 years ago

Hi, Wyatt. It is possible if you can demonstrate a good knowledge of the subject but competition is pretty stiff for jobs so every bit of education helps. Good luck!

Why is it critical that all levels bliw in the same direction to form a tropical storm? Nd what happens when u have lowwe winds blowing a different than upper winds

Asked by Patricia almost 9 years ago

If the wind changes direction with height it creates more friction, drag and chaos that impedes the development of the storm. Great question!

Hey Kevin! A selfish question here, but getting married in Wilmington NC on September 17th. Think we'll see any more tropical storm/hurricane activity within the next 10-12 days on the Atlantic?

Hi Missy-

Congratulations! A little too early to say at this point but odds seem in your favor. Keep track here: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

It has just hailed but there is no storm in sight. It isn't even raining. How is this possible?

Asked by Irisj almost 9 years ago

I'd need a little bit more information, including location and time. That said, if you think it was not hail there is something called "graupel". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graupel

I have a personal selfish weather question?!? My husband and I have plans to fly out from the US this Sunday am on 9/3/17 to the island of Grenada for the week and would like your opinion on the impact of Hurricane Irma there? Should we cancel???

Asked by Shannon over 7 years ago

Looks like you should have no problem getting in on Sunday. The current forecast model guidance suggests the storm will be far enough north early next week so as not to have a large impact on Grenada. A website you can check a few times a day shows you many of the models track information. Basically the closer the lines are together the more confidence in the track. Also check with the National Hurricane Center. Good luck!https://www.sfwmd.gov/weather-radar/hurricane-model-plots http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/
