By Elaine Murnane 6 th class

Why is summer warm and sunny? The Earth is tipped to one side as it moves round the sun. Some of the year, the north half of the Earths faces the sun. Then the sun is higher in the sky, making the weather warm. This is summer. When the Southern half of the earth faces the sun is it Winter in the north. Summer days are longer Because the Earth is titled and spins round. In Summer, the sun rises early and sets later. This makes daytime last longer than night. In the Middle summer in Sweden it is light for 21 hours !

Why do leaves fall in autumn? Autumn comes Between summer and Winter. Many trees Lose their leaves in Autumn because it is Hard for them to grow In the dark winter Months. The leaves Turn from green to red, Orange or brown. Then they fall to the Ground. Did you know ?? At the North and South Poles, the Sun never Sets in summer. It is Light all day. In Winter, The sun never rises. Then it is dark all day Long !

What is the sunniest place The Sahara Desert in North Africa is the Sunniest place on earth. It is sunny for Nearly 12 hours every day ! It hardly rains, Which makes it hard to plants and animals To live here. People dress in loose clothes to stop being sunburnt. Some times it is dry for long times in places where it normally Rains a lot. This is called a drought. There Was a drought in the United States in the 1903s. Crops didn’t grow and fields turned to dust. Many People had to leave their farms.

What is snow made of ? Snow is made of ice, which is water that has Frozen. When it is very cold in a clouds, tiny Bits of ice (crystals) begin to form, instead of Water drops. The pieces clump together to Make snowflakes that fall to the ground. The Weather must be very cold for snow to fall. If It is too warm, the snowflakes melt and turn to Rain.

Snowflakes Did you know ! Antarctica is the Coldest place on earth. The lowest temperature Ever recorded there is -89 degrees C. That’s Much colder than inside A freezer !!! Are all snowflakes the Same? It’s hard to believe, but All snowflakes are Different – even though There are millions and Millions of them. This Is because every ice Crystal in a snowflake Has it’s own shape. No two crystals are the Same.

What is a rainbow made of ? A rainbow is made of sunlight. The light Bounces through raindrops. This splits the Light into different colours. The colours of A rainbow are always the same. They are Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo And violet. In the north and far south of the World, amazing patterns of light sometimes Appear in the sky. They look like colourful Curtains. The patterns are called auroras. They happen when tiny light particles from the Sun smashes into the air.

Rainbow with no colour ! A fogbow is a rainbow that is white. You Might see a fogbow when the sun shines Through fog. It is white because the water Drops in fog are too small to split up the Light into rainbow colours. If there are thin clouds high in the sky, You might see three suns. The clouds are Made of bits of ice. These bends light from The sun. This makes it look as if there are Two extra suns in the sky. We call these Mock suns, or sun dogs.

Where are the fastest winds? Inside a tornado. A tornado is like are spinning Funnel made of air. They reach down from Giants thunderstorms. The winds can blow at 480 kilometres an hour. That’s twice as fast As an express train! Tornadoes can rip trees From the ground and destroy houses. A Tropical storm starts in the Atlantic ocean is Called a hurricane. In the pacific ocean, a Tropical storm is called a typhoon. In the Indian Ocean it is called a cyclone

Which storm has an eye ? A hurricane is a giant spinning eye made Up of super- strong winds. The centre is a Hole called the eye. Here it is calm and Sunny. If a hurricane reaches land, the Wind can damage buildings and heavy Rain causes floods. Hurricane hunters are Planes that fly into hurricanes to measure The wind speed.
