This is probably true when it comes to weather. There are times when the weather is either quite good or quite bad, but most of the time it is somewhere in the middle. Weather can be a problem when you are trying to be as prepared as possible.
When it is raining, it is raining. And that is true for nearly all types of weather. There are things that rain, and there are things that do not. Certain storms (like an El Niño) can make it rain, and certain storms (like a tropical depression) can turn it off.
The opposite is true for a tropical depression. It can be just as bad as a tropical storm. Just like rain, a tropical storm can be either good or bad. If it is good, it can be glorious. If it is bad, it can be horrible.
There are a lot of different kinds of tropical storms. A tropical depression can be either a tropical storm or a tropical cyclone. They differ in size and strength. Tropical cyclones can be large, and are classified as Category 3 or 4 on the Saffir-Simpson scale. A Category 3 hurricane is the most powerful hurricane. A Category 4 hurricane is the strongest hurricane in the Atlantic.
The name Tropical Storm Isaac was born out of an observation that it was the largest of all storms to strike the Caribbean in the first 24 hours of the season. Then it went on to become a Category 5 storm as it approached the islands of Hispaniola and Cuba.
And it is a Category 5. I can see why this would be interesting, but why would it be useful? For one thing, it would make the best title for a new weather blog post. But I’m sure the people who write it would disagree with me on that. I think it would make a great title for a weather podcast, but for some reason I doubt they would be up to writing it.
Weather is not something that interests me at all. I’ve always thought this was obvious, but I also don’t think it’s that important. I do like weather, of course, but I find it too much of a distraction from what I’m doing, or what I have to do, or what I’m trying to do. It also doesn’t help that weather is so easy to forecast.
I think the worst thing to do is to get a little more technical in the way you write your title. If you have to start a conversation about the weather, the first thing you want to do is ask: “How do I spell out what I said?” I don’t think you want to have too many names in the sky, and I think that’s why you get a lot of name-calling from the weather guy.
That’s why I call plainfield in weather “weather as a distraction”. It also helps that I know a lot about weather. I am a meteorologist, so I’ve had to use that term a lot over the years to describe the weather. Some of the people I work with use it a lot, and I like it. I don’t think it’s appropriate to use to refer to the atmosphere in a way that implies it is something that doesn’t really exist.
I feel like the more I think about it, the more the weather becomes more attractive. It’s hard to believe that I cant write a book about climate change ever again.
