Seasons and weather

Seasons = period in a year marked by specific weather conditions, temperatures and length of day divided into 4 seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter cause of change of seasons: the result of the tilt of the Earth's axis. (23,5°) the Sun's rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle (not caused by how close the Earth is to the sun)

Northern Hemisphere X Southern Hemisphere (Argentina and Australia - winter begins in June) equator

Winter the coldest season of the year 21st December (winter solstice) – 19th March Features of winter: temperature remains much lower the days are shorter snow fall, cold winds dusty and dry atmosphere Typical activities: ice-skating, hockey, cross-country skiing, sledging, skiing, snowboarding

Spring 20th March -20th June melt of ice and snow, higher temperatures, the days – sunnier and warmer refers to ideas of rebirth, renewal and regrowth ideal - it is neither hot nor cold season of happiness and joy for all living beings

Summer the hottest season 20th June(summer solstice) – 22nd September(autumnal equinox) Features of summer: high temperatures sun storms quite dry weather Typical activities: swimming in a lake/sea, outdoor sports, sunbathing, going on vacation, taking a walks holes in the ozone layer summer holidays

Autumn 22nd September – 20th December „fall“ in the USA the weather - less pleasant, often rainy, windy and foggy changing colors of falling leaves a time for harvesting most crops

Weather = the state of the atmosphere at a particular place and time as regards heat, cloudiness, dryness, sunshine, wind, rain refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity is driven by - air pressure, temperature and moisture differences between one place and another w. forecasting = predict the state of the atmosphere for a future time and a given location human attempts to control the weather

X climate

precipitation - too much moisture, 2 main forms air pressure - the force that is applied on everything on the Earth global warming- an increase in the earth‘s atmospheric temperature
