St. Elmo's fire is a electroluminescent coronal discharge caused by the ionization of the air during thunderstorms inside of a strong electric field. Although referred to as "fire", St. Elmo's fire is in fact a low density, relatively low temperature plasma caused by massive atmospheric electrical potential differences which exceed the dielectric breakdown value of air at around 3 megavolts per meter. St. Elmo's fire is named after Erasmus of Formiae (also called St. Elmo), the patron saint of sailors (who sometimes held its appearance to be auspicious). Physically, St. Elmo's fire is a bright pink-purple glow, appearing like fire in some circumstances, often in double or triple jets, from tall, sharply pointed structures such as masts, spires and chimneys, and on aircraft wings. It is named such because the phenomenon commonly occurs at the mastheads of ships during thunderstorms at sea, and St. Elmo is the patron saint of sailors. Benjamin Franklin correctly observed in 1749 that it is electric in nature. It is said that St. Elmo's fire can also appear from the tips of cattle horns during a thunderstorm, or sharp objects in the middle of a tornado, but is not the same phenomenon as ball lightning, although they are possibly related. In ancient Greece, the appearance of a single one was called Helena and two were called Castor and Pollux. Charles Darwin noted the effect while aboard the Beagle and wrote of the episode in a letter to J.S. Henslow that one night when the Beagle was anchored in the estuary of the Río de la Plata: "Everything was in flames, the sky with lightning, the water with luminous particles, and even the very masts were pointed with a blue flame."

"don't you know, everything's on fire!"
That's what i want to know.
Sometime but it depends on what weather you like, plus where you live. If its in Michigan, always nice, in the summer. Florida... you should know, and Alaska... now were talkin Polar bears..
They have thermometers in the places where the temperature is told...
so basically me dont know this type of stuff and im looking for the answer
Why do you want elmos world music anyway. get a life.
It is likely that ancient man at some point observed fires that resulted from lightning strikes or volcanic eruptions, and became curious about that unusual phenomenon, and started to investigate it.
Exothermic phenomenon: with generation of heat Endothermic phenomenon: with absorption of heat
The greenhouse effect
They don't 'know' the weather. They 'guess' what the weather is going to do - based on past observational data.
i really dont know ,but, i do know not all of them are sensitive to weather or maybe because the weather is really warm there
they have a special cow weather man
to know what to wear
they need to know the weather because they need to know when to be open or close.Also they would have to know if to bring an umbrella or a rain jacket.
There is no weather pattern to look for. Tsunamis are not a weather-related event.
No.
