Light Drizzle

Light drizzle is a type of light rainfall characterized by very fine water droplets falling from the sky. It typically occurs when the temperature is above freezing, around 5 to 10 degrees Celsius (41 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit), but can also happen at slightly colder temperatures. Light drizzle is common in regions with mild or cool climates, especially during transitional seasons like spring and autumn.

Where Do Tsunamis Come From?

Tsunamis are mostly provoked by underwater earthquakes and underwater volcanic eruptions, which sharply raise or lower the seabed and, as a result, move huge masses of water. Until now, the mechanisms of the tsunami have not been thoroughly studied, and it is often difficult to detect an approaching dangerous wave since at first, it is not high enough to start sounding the alarm.
