Why are winds near the surface typically stronger and gustier in the afternoon?
Due to the increasing temperature from morning to afternoon, causes presure gradient force (PGF) to occur.
Are winds strong or weak near the equator?
Trade winds are stronger within the Tropics.
What causes the strong winds in a tornado?
Change in air pressure causes the strong winds. In fact, most winds that we experience on Earth are caused by change in air pressure. Usually significant changes in air pressure occur over a large area and therefore it's only a slow change in pressure over distance making light winds. In a tornado, you get a significant drop in air pressure over just a few feet of land. This causes the winds to get excessivly high.
Does Florida have monsoon winds?
Florida does not have monsoon winds. Monsoon winds and rainy seasons only occur in south east Asia. The winds are very strong and the rain is heavy.
Do fronts occur in areas of high pressure?
No, not really. Winds tend to blow out of the High pressure areas to low pressure areas. This causes the clouds to follow the winds and that is the reason why you would expect a nice sunny weather when a high pressure area moves over you.
Why are winds near the surface typically stronger and gustier in the afternoon?
Due to the increasing temperature from morning to afternoon, causes presure gradient force (PGF) to occur.
Were do local winds occur?
Local winds occur on lakeshores or seashores
What air motion causes cloud formation and causes the winds to converge into cyclones?
Winds
Are winds strong or weak near the equator?
Trade winds are stronger within the Tropics.
Why are some winds more stronger than other winds?
Because of the air pressure
What type of energy causes all winds and breezes?
Air pressure is the type of energy that causes all winds and breezes. When horizontal differences in parcels of air occur, it generates wind. The flow of the air travels from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure.
Which is stronger in winds a category 1 hurricane or a category 5 hurricane?
A category 5 hurricane has stronger winds at 157 mph or greater. Category 1 winds, by contrast, are 74-95 mph.
What causes high speed winds and storms?
Winds are simply the movement of air. A large difference in pressure over a given area causes a large amount of air to be moved. The larger the pressure difference, the stronger the winds. When warm air (usually from a high pressure system) collides with cold air (usually a low pressure system) storms are sometimes created.
How did the Coriolis effect influence winds?
it affected influince winds because coriolis can go out of control so it makes winds stronger.
How does this motion affect global winds?
it causes the winds to curb
Why do prevailing winds occur?
by pooping
Why did early traders sail close to the coast?
They benefit from the thermal winds....close to land during the day winds are stronger away from coast you get stronger sea breezes
