The dynamic way different-shaped snowflakes perform distinct ‘dances’ within clouds has been found to hugely influence how much precipitation forms and is likely to fall to Earth. The discovery of this unique cloud choreography has the potential to gui… Continue reading ‘Dancing snowflakes’ in clouds can help us accurately forecast rainfall
One picture taken every day of the year starting September 2023 through to September 2024 provides a pretty fascinating perspective of the twilight zone transit due to the Earth’s 23.5-degree axial tilt as it orbits around the Sun.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading Watch: A year-long time lapse of Earth’s twilight zone
Thor and the Hulk may be more closely related than we thought. Thunderstorms are known to produce gamma rays in the atmosphere, but a new study has found that not only do they happen way more often than we realized, but they’re much weirder.Continue Re… Continue reading Storm clouds generate strange gamma radiation

Solar eclipses don’t just look cool – they can send gravity waves rippling through Earth’s atmosphere like dropping a stone in a pond. An international team of students has measured these gravity waves for the first time.Continue ReadingCategory: Scien… Continue reading Solar eclipses send “gravity waves” through Earth’s atmosphere
Earth’s weather changes based on where it is in its annual cycle around the Sun – but is it possible the climate can also be affected by the solar system’s position in its orbit around the center of the Milky Way? A new study suggests an ice age period… Continue reading Interstellar winter: Did galactic clouds cause an ice age on Earth?
What’s the easiest way to break the ice with someone you’ve just met? If you’re not immediately talking shop, than it’s probably the time-tested subject of the weather. So what …read more Continue reading 2024 Business Card Challenge: Weather Or Not You Get the Job
This week’s global NVIDIA GTC, GPU Technology Conference, included a discussion about using accelerated computing to drive environmental sustainability initiatives and climate action.Continue ReadingCategory: TechnologyTags: NVIDIA, Business, Climate C… Continue reading Earth 2: Next-gen NVIDIA AI aims to solve weather and climate forecasting
Do you live in a lightning hotspot? A new set of maps shows just where all that discharged electricity makes contact with the ground across the United States each year. Tip: If you’re worried about getting hit, you might want to skip Florida.Continue R… Continue reading Lightning maps show where 36.8 million strikes sizzle the US each year
