Tornadoes Purpose: To inform the audience about tornadoes. Introduction Attention Getter: What can hurdle automobiles through the air, rip ordinary homes to shreds, and travel at speeds over 60 mph? Topic Orientation: Topical Credibility: I researched the topic of tornadoes, and it’s most common to happen in parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, eastern Colorado and western Iowa can also be referred as Tornado Alleys because of the warm and humid weather. Relevance: Well, tornadoes continue as they always have to tear out wide areas of human made structures, automobiles, or even entire small cities in Tornado Alley. Credibility: I researched the topic of tornadoes and the most common in the state of Illinois, rather than any
The southern part of the USA is where a lot of tornadoes occur , to be precise more that 1,200 tornadoes and most of these are in the southern parts which mainly experience many of either F4 or F5 tornadoes annually . Tornadoes are a weather phenomenon that occur regularly throughout the US. They are caused by very low pressure systems that form during storm events. Signs of Tornadoes include unusual amounts of heavy rain and hail , A large, dark, low-lying cloud (particularly if rotating) and Dark, often greenish sky. These indicate the awareness of shelter and too be ready to take cover if needed.
Unit 28: Health, safety and security for airports and airlines Learning outcomes By completing this unit candidates will develop knowledge and understanding of the health, safety and security issues affecting the airport and airline industries. They will identify the main hazards in the terminal and airside areas, gain knowledge of the methods used to minimise the risks and be able to describe the relevant legislation. They will also investigate recently introduced health, safety and security systems and procedures in the airport and airline sector. Candidates will produce evidence to meet the unit assessment objectives in order to show that they understand: • • • • • the health, safety and security hazards at an airport terminal and how
It gives an in depth look at the flu pandemic of 1918, and in doing so draws a stunning parallel to what is a very real possible future. For anyone research the possibility of a pandemic, this book is a must. Knowing the past cases of wide spread illness is essential in preventing such a disaster in the future. With the close comparison of the past and present there is sufficient information for any research on the
Even though Hurricane Hazel had devastating winds, it was not known for that, it was known for its speed. Hurricane Hazel’s speed allowed it to do damage to seven states and parts of Canada. “Hurricane hunter planes found Hazel’s winds to have accelerated to 150 mph, and the storm was moving at an incredible forward speed 30 mph (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Hazel)”. Those speeds are very fast moving for hurricanes, especially ones of this size. This shows that this hurricane was much more different and deadly from most hurricanes.
It seems as if when the apocalypse happens, the epicenter will be in Haiti. The location and weather patterns of the island have plagued the island with natural disasters. Haiti has had many recorded hurricanes, earthquakes, and storms. The country has a disproportionately large coastline which makes it very susceptible to hurricanes. Haiti also has large rivers that overflow in the rainy seasons and dry up during the dry season.
Discuss the impacts of storm events in the British Isles and evaluate responses the responses to them. (40 Marks) Storm events in the British Isles are caused by depressions which form out in the Atlantic Ocean and are brought to us mainly by the tropical maritime air mass moving north-east over the British Isles. A depression is a low pressure weather system formed where two different air masses meet along the polar front, this occurs rapidly as they are driven by prevailing westerly wind. They appear as masses of swirling clouds when viewed on satellite images, subsequently due to Coriolis effect resulting in an anticlockwise rotation in the northern hemisphere. The associated air masses of storms within the British Isles are Polar maritime and Tropical maritime.
The swimmer: John Cheever QUESTIONS: 1. How is setting used symbolically in the story? Focus on such details as the change in weather and specific locales such as the highway and the public pool. ANSWER: Setting is used symbolically in the story in many ways. For example pg 23 paragraph 2, “In the west there was a massive stand of cumulus cloud so like a city seen from a distance—from the bow of an approaching ship.” That is symbolically used as it’s cloudy and it will probably thunderstorm.
This analysis will deal strictly with possible terrorist attacks on the Anytown community. In this assignment, you will create and present a law enforcement tactical threat report based on your threat analysis of Anytown, USA using the data obtained from the simulation as well as outside research. For a review of what a tactical threat analysis determines, review the “Law Enforcement Intelligence” guide, pages 83 and 151-153, located at .intellprogram.msu.edu/Carter_Intelligence_Guide.pdf”>http://www.intellprogram.msu.edu/Carter_Intelligence_Guide.pdf To complete this analysis, do the following: 1) Gather and catalog data from the simulation for your final analysis. Data should include: 1. a) History of Anytown 2. b) Hazard assessment of
At this point in it's journey Katrina was a category 2 hurricane and brought winds of of 105 miles per hour or 170 kilometres hour. Walls of water were seen running down skyscrapers like water falls and cars were hurled into buildings by the catastrophic winds. Causes All hurricanes start in tropical waters, this s because they can only form in warm water environments. Hurricane Katrina started because the wind and air conditions were perfect. However hurricanes can start but not cause any damage as they never complete their journey to land this is because for a hurricane to move it must be pushed by very strong
