Introduction To build an arena here in [ CITY ]‚ you will have to know some of the severe weather hazards that we go through and how we can overcome it. It is important to know what kind of weather [ CITY ] goes through to ensure people’s safety and know what to expect during certain time of the year. [ CITY ] encounters five severe weather hazards: thunderstorms‚ flash floods‚ lightning‚ tornadoes and hurricanes. Thunderstorms are a short lived weather system that

begins to increase with altitude‚ and this trend continues in the thermosphere. Because the atmosphere in the thermosphere is so thin‚ a thermometer cannot be used to measure the temperature accurately and special instruments are needed. The Earth interior is divided into 4 layers. The properties of the Earth’s interior have been inferred primarily from earthquake waves. Distinct characteristics are found within each layer such as density‚ temperature‚ and pressure. OBJECTIVE: In this

Earth Science is an all-embracing term for the sciences related to the planet Earth. It is arguably a special case in planetary science‚ the Earth being the only known life-bearing planet. There are both reductionist and holistic approaches to Earth sciences. The formal discipline of Earth sciences may include the study of the atmosphere‚ hydrosphere‚ oceans and biosphere‚ as well as the solid earth. Typically‚ Earth scientists will use tools from physics‚ chemistry‚ biology‚ chronology and mathematics

The storm was nearly 400 miles wide‚ with the highest recorded wind gust at 104 mph. Overall damages were estimated in the $1.0 billion dollar range‚ and three deaths were attributed to the Category 3 storm. Copyright © 2005 by The McGraw-Hill
