Cyclone

I am an Iowa State Cyclone. I always have been and I always will be. Growing up I watched every basketball game, went and watched my cousin play volleyball, and attended plays and musicals in Ames. There was never a doubt in my mind that I wasn't going to attend Iowa State University when I graduated. Guess what? As I write this I am currently in my second year at Iowa State University as a Performing Arts major. I'm sitting in Fisher Theatre, home of Iowa State Theatre, working on wardrobe…

season. The Iowa State Cyclones Women’s Cross Country team was no stranger to success. Since the program began in 1976, the team had won five national championships. The team did not know what to expect in 1985. Tom Kroeschell stated that Ron Renko, the head women’s cross country coach, believed the team’s “best case scenario” was a “sixth-place finish.” However, the team had been preparing all season for that five-kilometer race and it showed during the race. The seven Cyclones ran their…

(±3.0) hurricanes, and 4.0 (±1.7) major hurricanes, with a cumulative Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index of 141 (±58).[3] Two days later, Colorado State University issued its first extended-range forecast for the 2011 season. In its report, the organization predicted an above-average hurricane season with 17 named storms, 9 hurricanes, and 5 major hurricanes. In addition, the team expected an Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) value of approximately 165, citing that El Niño conditions had…

Differences Between Natural and Manmade Hazards Hazards exist everywhere and all the time. Hazards come in many forms and sizes and affects people in different ways. The two categories of hazards are natural and manmade. Natural hazards occur everywhere but based on the geographic location, single or multiple hazards can occur at once. Natural hazards branches into three categories and they are atmospheric, hydrologic, and geologic. Manmade hazards or also known as technological hazards…

Drama Cyclone: Family in King Lear In King Lear by Shakespeare, families get broken apart by greed, hatred, and thunderstorms. The whole play revolves around a king and his daughters’ interactions when he gives them most of his kingdom. The entire family gets swept up in a humongous wave of drama as everyone except the youngest daughter starts backstabbing each other. There is also a subplot that mirrors the main story, with two brothers and their dad in a power struggle; the whole thing feels a…

centered around an area of very low pressure with strong winds that can exceed 74 miles per hour. Hurricanes use simple air convection to turn wind into a destructive device. A hurricane is formed only over warm waters near the equator. Tropical cyclones are like giant motors that use moist air as fuel, thus their reason for forming over warm ocean waters near the equator. Hurricanes use convection, the movement of hot and cold air to create monstrous storms.They begin formation by using hot…

realized how hot and dark it had gotten. “The rain beat upon the low, shingled roof with a force and clatter that threatened to break an entrance and deluge them there.” She was scared for her husband and son and hoped they had found shelter from the cyclone. As she was standing by the window the rain was coming down in sheets, and lightning struck the Chinaberry tree. “Crashing torrents and the roar of the elements”. It was then, that she was frightened for her own life. It was so hot she was…

how strong they are, they are able to produce hot and cold spells as well as wet conditions and dry conditions based on the location and systems surrounding them. Block highs can also bring problems like fog and rise of frost. Tropical cyclones Tropical cyclones can be defined as low-pressure systems that develop above warm tropic waters and creates…

massive thunderstorms, which have created angular momentum changes to suppress the planet to cyclones. Saturn’s changing of angular momentum, comes from uprising thunderstorms, beta-drifting and it does not necessarily always have to produce cyclones. Now these cyclones on Saturn are not produced how…
