Aquarids Starfall

In the first dates of May we will be able to watch the Eta Aquariids Starfall. The peak of its activity will be on May 6-7, but overall the shower is visible from about April 19 to about May 28 each year. It will be seen brighter in the Southern Hemisphere, although the residents of the Northern half of the Earth will also be able to watch the starfall.

Lyrid Meteor Shower

Get ready for a meteor spectacle! The first spring star rain is on its way, and you won’t want to miss it. On April 21 to 22, we will have a chance to observe the largest meteor shower in the Northern Hemisphere — the Lyrid shower, whose maximum will fall on this night.

Did You Know that Hurricanes Never Cross the Equator?

Tropical cyclones and hurricanes are powerful weather systems that can cause significant damage and destruction. These storms typically form in the tropics and move towards higher latitudes, affecting areas such as Gulf of Mexico, and the southeastern United States. However, one peculiar fact about these storms is that no tropical cyclone or hurricane has ever crossed the equator.

What Goes Together With A Sunny Weather?

These weather parameters are usually related to sunny weather conditions: High pressure - Sunny weather typically occurs when high pressure dominates the atmosphere. High pressure brings sinking air which suppresses cloud formation. Low humidity - With high pressure and sinking air comes lower humidity. Clear skies allow more sunlight to reach the surface, heating and drying the air.

Track Local Wet-Bulb Temperature With an iPhone📱 App

The wet-bulb temperature is an important measure of the Earth’s climate and is used to determine the risk of heat stress and heat-related illness in humans and animals. The wet-bulb temperature is the temperature that a thermometer would show if it were covered in a wet cloth and exposed to the air.

What is a Katabatic Wind?

Katabatic winds are like chilly mountain slides for air! When the air at the top of mountains or high places gets cold, it becomes heavy. Like a slide in a playground, these high places let the cold, heavy air slide down to the ground. As it slides down, it can go really fast and bring cold weather along with it, like a natural chilly breeze.

Sirocco Wind: Warm and Moist from Africa to Europe

There is a wind that travels all the way from North Africa to southern Europe, bringing warmth and moisture along its journey and it is called the Sirocco. The Sirocco likes to visit Southern Italy and the Balkans during the spring and autumn seasons. It happens because of the interaction between high-pressure systems over the Atlantic and low-pressure systems over the Mediterranean.

Meteorological vs Astronomical Spring

Meteorological Spring and Astronomical Spring are two ways of defining the start of spring, but they are based on different criteria. Meteorological Spring refers to the three calendar months of March, April, and May in the Northern Hemisphere (or September, October, and November in the Southern Hemisphere). These months are considered to be spring because they generally have milder temperatures and more rainfall than the preceding winter months, and the days start to become longer.
