PPT-LOCAL WINDS TYPES OF LOCAL WINDS

Local winds are caused by the movement of air between lowpressure and highpressure systems within small areas As there are so many different types of winds each one takes on a unique form Local winds frequently have a significant impact on climate in local regions so it is critical to understand what causes them.

Wind. The horizontal movement of air from an area of high pressure to an area of lower pressure.. All winds are caused by differences in air pressure. Differences of air pressure are caused by unequal heat . Remember…. Local means the area around a particular location. . We learned that wind forms because of uneven heating on Earths surface and air pressure. . Sea Breezes. Sea breezes occur near shorelines. . Objective. Reconcile the . conflicting evidence of the meridional westerly wind shift during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) indicated . by proxy-records from the . atmosphere . and . ocean. Approach. i. What causes wind? . Caused by a difference in air pressure due to. unequal heating of the atmosphere.. Winds are created by. ….. • . Heating the air, decreases pressure (warm. air rises creating a low pressure). One section splits around FL =winds split around FL. Minimum winds & moisture flux in Midwest & Southeast US. Converging winds along Southeast Atlantic coast . =. precipitation. June 85. BH elongates in E-W direction. The movement of air in a horizontal direction. What is wind?. The uneven heating of the Earth causes differences in air pressure.. What causes wind?. The Sun’s energy is more concentrated at the Equator and spread out more over the poles.. Lucas Rollins, koala. , June 4. th. 2015. Conditions during . Blizzards. Weather conditions during the storm include, strong winds(over 35mph), heavy snowfall, low temperatures,(lower than. 20°F and -6°C) reduced visibility(less than ¼ of a mile),blowing/suspended snow, traffic jams, power loss of power.
