Wild Winds!
It steals your hat, makes electricity and can tear down buildings. What is it? Wind, of course! ….and we’ve been getting a lot of it in Utah recently. I was curious about where it comes from so I looked up some information and decided to share it here!
Air molecules are moving constantly and are always bumping into each other. The more air molecules there are in a certain area, the higher the air pressure. Air pressure is just the amount of force (or weight of the air) that is hitting any given area at a certain time. Changes in air pressure over horizontal distances causes air molecules to rush from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
In other words, as the sun heats the air, it rises. Cooler air rushes in to fill in the space, making wind.
This video shows the flag blowing in the wind on Memorial Day.
