The last 2 weeks we have been learning about weather, I choose to learn about wind because wind Interests me more than any other weather feature. I learnt that you cant see wind and that weather changes minute by minute.
Whistling Wind
Gee its getting pretty breezy around lately. Wind is large bursts of air moving, you can not see but you can usually feel.
Wind can come when it’s warm or cold. Wind can also be warm or cold depending on the direction it’s coming from. For example you could have warm wind to begin the day but cold wind to end the day. Or you could have wind at the start of the day and none at the end. Here in Christchurch you get cold wind from the east side and warm wind from the west.
Wind is caused by different air pressures. So in the northern hemisphere, winds blow clockwise around an area of high pressure, and anti-clockwise around low pressure.
Different wind speeds have some different names for example you could have a breeze or gale!
I personally hate cold wind but don't mind warm wind so much, but I would definitely rather have no wind than warm wind.
