It just snowed for a short while here I am.
WTF is this shit?

Also, there's a wind gust warning:
West winds will range from 15-20 mph with 20-30 mph gusts and
minimum relative humidity values will range from 25-35 percent
this afternoon. These conditions could enhanced the spread of any
fires that may develop.
It's too cold for April.
It's hard to believe it was around 80 degrees last week here. Early Spring in the Northeast sucks sometimes.

A magnitude 7.9 earthquake occurred near Nepal today. At least 900 people are known to have been killed by the earthquake. It was the second most powerful earthquake in Nepal in the past 100 years.
This was followed by a series of after shocks ranging from magnitude 4.5 to 6.6.
The earthquake triggered an avalanche in the Himalayas. An historical building from 1832 collapsed as a result of the earthquake.
Nepal has declared a state of emergency.
As the world becomes more populated, we should be aware of the potential impact of major earthquakes, including tsunami if an earthquake occurs under the sea and have effective warning systems against earthquakes and tsunami. Infrastructures must be designed to withstand the damages brought by earthquake if the area is prone to it.

Do not want to make a separate thread on this one.

I just wish it would finally rain. The trees have been blooming like mad and that has been kicking up my allergies in a really bad way. High winds certainly won't help matters. Neither will the high of 80+ degrees today. Oh right, the weather ...
... lol, okay, thx for the explain. No problem, but, next time if you want to know where we live, just ask for it. ^^

i shouldn't be doing this. i guess i am a little bit high.

Back to the weather. A tropical storm has formed over the western Pacific Ocean and will intensify. It is not likely to pose any threat as the system will recurve towards the northeast.
Super Typhoon Noul passed very close to the northeastern part of Luzon in the Philippines. PAGASA said it made landfall at 4:45 pm (local time), although from the satellite images it appears that the super typhoon skirted the northeastern tip of Luzon Island and did not move inland.
A maximum sustained wind speed of 30 kilometers per hour and a maximum gust of 70 kilometers per hour were recorded by an automated weather station not more than 15 miles away from the center of the storm when it was at its closest approach. The minimum pressure recorded by that station was 982 hPa. The readings were not that impressive.
The minimum central pressure of the typhoon was estimated to be in the region between 920-930 hPa, and the maximum sustained wind speed at the closest point of approach was around 200 kilometers per hour. Assuming the estimates are correct, this typhoon is very compact and has a small wind field, as well as an extremely steep pressure gradient. Due to the relatively small size of the typhoon, the strongest winds did not penetrate inland, which means that extensive damage is less likely.
The system is now moving northward and will re-curve to the northeast within the next 24 hours, along the edge of the subtropical ridge and weaken progressively. The chance that strong wind will affect the eastern part of Taiwan is low.

It's a new week now, here's an update. ^^
The previous sounding I posted is an example of dynamic lifting. Air was forced to rise upwards because of the convergence of air, which gave rise to rainfall. Convection played a little role in it. This is not the case for the example in this post.
A parcel of air rises if it is warmer than the surrounding temperature. This is known as "convection". Convection in the atmosphere can sometimes trigger severe weather when the conditions are right.
Once above the level of free convection, a parcel of air is saturated and cools down more slowly than the surrounding air temperature as it moves upwards freely since the rate of cooling of the air follows the "moist adiabatic lapse rate" curve as shown. This enables convection to take place in the atmosphere. Here, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy of the parcel of air.
The shaded area is proportional to the potential energy available for convection, which is quite large, also there is plenty of moisture in the atmosphere. So it can be inferred from the sounding below that there is a significant chance of thunderstorm.
Indeed, widespread heavy rain began to affect Hong Kong shortly afterwards.
It's raining and it's 52 degrees right now. Nothing impressive, but it beats hot weather.
It's dark and a little cloudy here. Temp is a bit too. Around 80 degrees.

Man, you can totally pass that off as a UFO sighting.

A low pressure area in the central part of South China Sea has intensified into a tropical depression. Maximum sustained wind is 45 kilometers per hour. It is moving north-northwest towards the area to the east of Hainan Island.
The location of the depression is marked by "T.D.". Just like a leaf flowing with the river current, a tropical cyclone follows the direction of the surrounding air stream, which is parallel to the direction of the periphery (edge) of the subtropical ridge as shown by the blue curve.
A trough is a elongated area of low pressure indicated by a v-shaped pattern in the weather chart below. It is propagating eastward. As it begins to interact with the subtropical ridge, the ridge will deform and become more north-south oriented (orange line). As a result, the direction of air stream will change slightly, thus the storm may take a more northerly track.
However, the strength of the trough is not too strong and it is difficult to predict the extent of the deformation. But generally, the storm is expected to move northwards, towards the southwestern coast of China.

66 degrees with light rain. It's expected to get heavier later. There are a lot of people that went out to Coney Island today for the Mermaid Parade (or planned to) whining about the rain. Well, real mermaids love rain and don't try to pussy out during days of big rainfall.

at the 200hpa level (12,000 meters), the strong easterly wind is preventing the storm from further development.

It's the rainy part of eternal summer.
This actually looks really good. 70s is less hot than usual. Fuck yeah.
