Is there a "line" deviding the US by winter activity? I.E. snow: likely in KY, unlikely in TN.
If so, what is it called?

Asked by Cheshire almost 7 years ago

I think I do, and none that I’ve ever heard of. Interesting question. Thanks.

Purely out of curiosity do you read other people’s q&as or even ask questions?

Asked by Ozark was about 5 years ago

Very interesting question. From time to time I do look at the most recent few posts and look at a few answers. Oddly don’t think I’ve ever posted a question! Probably should change that. Thanks, Ozark!

So that kind of made me think of another one for you if you don’t mind. Why is spring usually more active then fall? When their both transition and unstable seasons why does spring have it in?

Asked by Jamie about 5 years ago

Thunderstorm instability is created by warmer air at the surface and colder air aloft, which makes air parcels rise, like a hot air balloon. Coming out of winter the air is colder aloft as the surface is warming with longer days and more direct sunlight.

Do you overreact when there is a low risk tornado watch and act like its the end of the world?

Asked by A man named Sue over 5 years ago

Well...I sure try not to do that. Most of us try to create awareness rather than anxiety over severe weather.

Why have some scientists argued that the current rise in global temperature is causing an increase in magnitude, frequency, and duration of hurricanes

Asked by girlstarsccr almost 6 years ago

Complicated question. The fuel for tropical systems is warm surface water in the ocean. Since the ocean and the atmosphere are connected a warmer atmosphere will create warmer oceans which adds up to more fuel. Hope that helps. Thanks!
