The air pressure differences result mostly from the uneven heating of earth's surface.

∙ 15y agoPrimary cause? Differences in air temperatures (causing differences in air pressure, leading to winds as the system tries to 'fill' the lower pressure areas with air from the higher pressure areas.)

∙ 14y agoStrong Winds are caused by Temperature changes, thegreater the temperature change in a region the stronger the winds are. So in deserts since the Temperature change can vary as far as 50f at night to 100f during the day, the winds produced are typically stronger in desert regions than humid regions.

The destructive power of a tornado is due to what?
Very strong winds are the primary destructive force in a tornado. Secondary damage can be caused by objects picked up by these winds.
What causes the strong winds associated with tornadoes and thunderstorms?
The strong winds in a tornado are causes by the steep pressure gradient surrounding it, with intense low pressure at the tornado's center. Strong winds in thunderstorms are usually caused by rain cooled air falling rapidly to ground level in an even called a downburst.
What Are Extreme Winds?
Very Very High Winds. Very Strong Winds Very Very High Winds. Very Strong Winds
Name some of the local wind?
Local winds can be caused by small temperature differences that exist within larger systems. Local winds can be strong, as with a downburst on the leading edge of a supercell. They can also produce locally strong winds, such as tornadoes. Local winds can cause property damage and harm to people and animals.
What is strong winds caused by?
when the sun heats up a body of air and it rises fast, all the air around rushes in to fill the space
What causes the largest storm surges?
Storm surges are caused primarily by high winds pushing on the ocean's surface Powerful wind whips up large, strong waves in the direction of its movement.

Is low pressure light winds or strong winds?
strong
What Are Extreme Winds?
Very Very High Winds. Very Strong Winds Very Very High Winds. Very Strong Winds
Are dunes caused by winds?
Yes sand dunes are caused by winds

When was Four Strong Winds created?
Four Strong Winds was created in 1963.
Why does sandstorms occur?
This wind is usually caused by convection currents (which are created by intense heating of the ground), and is usually strong enough to move entire sand dunes. Air is unstable when heated, and this instability in the air will cause the mixture of higher winds in the troposphere with winds in the lower atmosphere, producing strong surface winds.
How strong are the winds in Venus?
as strong as u
What causes sediment that is picked up by the wind to fall to the ground?
This wind is usually caused by convection currents and is usually strong enough to move entire sand dunes. Air is unstable when heated, and this instability in the air will cause the mixture of higher winds in the troposphere with winds in the lower atmosphere, producing strong surface winds.
In what direction winds blow?
Primarily from the southwest.
