What is the origin of the phrase it's nippy?
Nippy has a few different meanings other than this one, presumably related to chilly weather. I'm going to offer a ''possible'' origin for this weather usage, and I want someone who knows to strike this if it is wrong. The pogonip is a form of dense fog that contains particles of frozen water. Pogonip is a native American word possibly originating in the Southern Paiute language. Some sources say it comes from the Shoshone word meaning "cloud" (payinappih). The pogonip can form in deep mountain valleys, and it can be unpleasant, if not hazardous to breathe. I could easily see a connection between the pogonip and the expression "It's nippy".The linked Online Etymology Dictionary indicates that this weather related useage goes back to 1898, but does not name the primary source for this date.

Compare and contrast the characteristics of the 3 types of volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes are the largest of the three types of volcanoes, built from basaltic lava flows and shaped like a gentle dome. Cinder cone volcanoes have very steep slopes and reach heights of 300 meters or less, and are made from ejected lava. Composite Cone Volcanoes are large symmetrical cones made from viscous lavas that are extruded, and they are the most violent volcanoes of the three.
