  1. don't say that you'll jinx's the UK anywhere can have a big thunderstorm  maybe your thinking of hurricane-tornados   that's because of the locations that is even called tornado alley its a long section in the mid America like an alley get it?? location location   BBC nead the ad


  2. What is more likely to get the most wear 'n' tear by traffic?

    a) a large field

    b)  a traffic cone

    a) = U.S.A.

    b)= U.K.

  3. Very cold air from Canada colides with very hot air from the south -- southern plains, Texas, Mexico. These air masses heat up or become cold over land, not water, and their extremes are not mediated by water. Their collision is what creates the storms. The friction from moving air masses creates storms.

    Storm fronts travel from the Plains, where weather is among the most extreme on earth, to the East Coast. Also, the Caribbean contributes hurricanes during hurricane season. They can move north.

    You don't see these kinds of thunderstorms in, for example, the San Francisco Bay area. It's out of this weather pattern, as weather tends to move from west to east in the northern hemisphere.

  4. Continental climates are characterized by more intense weather than island climates, because the ocean moderates temperature and humidity.

  5. the UK's position on the planet protects it
