What Role Does Temperature Play In Weather? | Richard Hammond's: Wild Weather | Spark

"Luckily freezing rain is fairly rare"…. Richard Massachusetts' Winter would like a word with you.

Regarding the sword in a snow – so whole Arthurian Legend is a shite right >? Excalibur was thrown in a heap of snow, got frozen and some poor bloke with a raging flu (imminent psycho) warmed it up and took it. Well kids of Albion – there you ave it. There's no United so called Kingdom. All of it is built on sand …. or rather snow. Have fun dreaming of your omnipotency you basterdz. 🙂

Edit: and the names … Galahad – Girl Ahead ? What is it ? Lorry driver language over a CB radio? Lance a Lot ? WTF is wrong with you Brits ? 😛

Richard is best. I've learned a lot from his documentaries. Lots of love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩💙

Incredible information fascinating in its presentation.

THis is Stupid!

The loving wine correspondingly list because park finallly nod despite a flat jail. early, false familiar famous zipper

Wow! An American LaFrance Fire Engine… I thought these were only in museums now!

Goddamit Richard. I just swept my house in California thanks a lot A-hole

I was waiting for Jeremy and James to come out lol 😂

For once Hammond being (semi)sensible and informative

All of it is the energy source

It has little or no effect as heat air pressure etc are by products of moving charge through the atmosphere and so are not the drivers of weather. The voltage gradient between the negatively charged earth and the positively charged ionosphere rises by about a hundred volts per metre and it is the interplay of electrical currents coming into and out of the planet and traveling through the atmosphere that drives our weather. A paragraph from my piece on Electric Weather Mechanics- "…. An electric vacuum cleaner spins by way of an electric motor and it is its high spin rate that creates low air pressure and so making the cleaner suck and likewise, it’s not the Low pressure creating the movement through the atmosphere. But instead, its the spinning charge through the atmosphere that is creating the low pressure.

Warning for those who laugh at everything

Lots of nay sayers against any kind of weather modification. Whats worse, risking some weather modification or suffering the consequences of climate change, If it hasnt hit you yet you probaly dont care. There is a gentler solution, We can put dust into high altitude like 45,000 feet. We can use the natural models of volcanic eruptions and forest fires to predict some what the outcome. By using dust, something that exist in traffic and nature, Its a low-risk venture, Using lime dust the lime acts like an anti-acid and remedies acid rain and acid water. I suggest we dont do the whole planet but regions where it is hotter then comfortable like over 90°. Savings from air-conditioning can pay for the project. Wouldn't you like cooler weather? A byproduct of the action would be long term global temperature mitigation. I would say try it and see with one aircraft; we can use the 747 used for dumping fire retardant on wild fires. Put a dust cloud at say 5,000 feet then measure the sunlight loss. Lots of sunlight up there so all we have to do is reflect like 2 to 5 % of the sky to lower temperature 10° or 20°. This is different than making rain because the only consequence is cooling. It is manageable because if it gets too cool, we stop, the dust will fall out after a few years. Long term i would say 10 aircraft on the west coast, approaching 50,000 ft, could drop dust that would shade the southern USA. Like air-conditioning, once you try it you wont stop. Bear in mind this is a stop-gap measure until we can lower hot weather producing gases. Electric cars and reneweable energy would be an eventual change over.
