Why does the wind seem to pick up when clouds cover the sun?
When clouds cover the sun, the temperature of the air can drop, causing differences in air pressure. As the cooler, denser air moves in to replace the rising warm air, this creates wind. Additionally, cloud cover can lead to localized weather patterns, enhancing wind speeds as air masses interact. Thus, the change in temperature and pressure dynamics contributes to the perception of increased wind when clouds are present.
How does solar radiation cause wind?
Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface unevenly, causing areas to become warmer or cooler. This temperature difference results in air pressure variations, with warm air rising and cool air sinking. As warm air rises, cool air rushes in to replace it, creating wind.

What do you use on your watch to adjust time?
If the watch is an older analog type of watch, there should be a "stem" that you use to wind and reset the time on the watch (or that looks like that stem but is not for winding, only setting the watch if it is battery powered). That stem also can be gently pulled away from the watch and when in that position it can be turned to move the hands on the watch to the chosen hour and minute. If the watch is digital and battery operated, there are usually buttons that you press to change the time, but sometimes you need to push and hold one while also clicking the other. Watches can vary greatly in how they operate and the only way to really know how to set the particular watch you have is to read the manual directions.
