Everything you need to know about weather!

Research shows the average viewer knows little about the atmospheric processes. As meteorologists, we try to put the complex world of weather forecasting into simple terms most people can understand. While it sounds like a simple task...it's not. So, as a crash course in weather, I'm requiring all my students to view this simple, yet educational video presentation.



This is actually Peter Weatherall's music video about the weather. He writes songs geared toward children. Peter was born in Australia, and grew up in England, the United States, and New Zealand and currently lives in Japan. So he knows his international weather. For more info on the weather song and Peter's music, visit www.kidsinglish.com

In the next class, we will examine the effect of coriolis force on vorticity covariance in MHD turbulent flow of dusty fluid.
