This podcast series explores all things atmospheric pertaining to our world, Vermont and locally. It will also include other topics about the planet Earth such as the Geomagnetic Field and trends in climatology near and far. If you follow the weather and are enthusiastic about storms of all kinds, I’ll delve into the mechanics like Bombogenesis of a coastal low pressure system, or why well-developed low pressure systems sometimes do not deliver. I’ll explain some of the hidden details about our climate, how our weather behaves and we’ll explore other climates, and how they might play a role in our daily weather in the Green Mountain State and northern New England.

Wind is the movement of air that develops due to temperature differences in different parts of the world. The differences in temperature result in differences in density which results in differences in pressure. Wind results when these pressure differences try to normalize in an endless cycle of movement. Roger Hill explains the pressure gradient and what causes changes in wind speed and direction.

Roger details how varying air and ground temperatures at different levels of the atmosphere can produce interesting forms of precipitation such as sleet, hail, or freezing rain, or a combination of precipitation types. Ever hear a forecast call for a mixed bag precipitation? This is what they're talking about.
