Updated: 6/1/2024

The systematic shift of radiation and temperature bands throughout the year is primarily due to the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the sun. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight at different times of the year, leading to the changing seasons.

How do hurricane winds differ from thunderstorm winds?

Most of the wind you experience in a thunderstorm is the result of rain-cooled air descending from the storm and spreading out at ground level. These winds are rather localized and periods of strong wind usually do not last very long. In a hurricane, the wind is the result of air being drawn toward the intense low pressure at the eye of the storm. As a consequence of Earth's rotation, these winds spiral around the storm's center before being drawn up intot he rain beands and eye wall. Strong winds in a hurricane cover an area hundreds of miles across and often persist for hours.
