Trade wind

The sunrise coming up over the clear blue ocean is mesmerizing. Sitting on the top deck of the boat, I stare at the masterpiece before me. My grandparents and I are eating breakfast when an elderly woman sits at the table beside us. We waited for someone to join her, but no one did. My grandma, being the social type, starts to make conversation with the elderly woman. “Pretty sunrise isn’t it,” my grandma ask. “It sure is lovely,” the elderly woman said. “Where you from?” my grandma said. “I…

picks up speed, it has so much force that almost everything in its way will be forced into the tunnel. The wind has so much power that it tears shingles off roofs or the entire roof itself. The wind can also carry outdoor furniture along with the tornado and tear up the landscape surrounding the house. Two major factors cause a destructive tornado, wind speed and width. For an average tornado, wind speeds can rise to 100 miles per hour; however, a threatening tornado can rise to 300 miles per…

A hurricane is an intense storm with very high winds. It is characterized by how fast its winds speeds are and how bad the storm is (“Hurricane.”). There were four category 5 Hurricanes in 2005, the most that were in record for an Atlantic hurricane season, and Hurricane Katrina was one of them. Hurricane Katrina was a very disastrous event that occurred in New Orleans. The hurricane was a very effective one but not as effective as Hurricane Sandy. Hurricane Katrina did various amounts of damage…

Tornadoes are very destructive and can cause people to be homeless. What are tornadoes? A tornado is a mobile, destructive vortex of violently rotating winds having the…

The long days and nights riding to Bree started molding into each other so I didn’t have the best idea about how long it has been. I looked up at the stormy night sky dark with clouds filled with rain and thunder that blocked out the light from the stars and the moon. Lightning could be seen in the distance zapping at the ground. I made my horse go faster so we could get to Bree sooner. It was about twenty miles away from where we were. After a loud clap of thunder shook the ground, rain started…

Hurricane sandy was one of a natural disaster. It was the most destructive other than Katrina. Many meteorologist say that this was an unpredicted storm, which caused more damage. Sandy killed 285 people in total and 125 in the united states. But that is not as much as how many people katrina killed/injured. Some people were out of power for days and couldn’t get any resources like food and water because of Sandy. What happened first was a wave in the caribbean turned into a tropical storm…

Maybe my parents just wanted to get rid of me for a week, but I created some of my best memories at Camp Edwards. The camp itself is a paradise for kids of almost any age. Across the seemingly endless campground, there are tons of exciting activities that campers can participate in, such as sailing and archery. Camp Edwards sits right beside a huge lake, making the entire camp feel separate from the rest of the world, a utopia of sorts. Across the vast water to the right sat a lonely island that…

already starting to whine at excitement of the land in front of us. It was a cold day, low 20s and wind gusts of 30 mph. Small snowflakes flew through the sky. The ground was covered with a thin fresh layer of snow. I looked at the time, it was 8:55 “close enough” (pheasant hunting doesn't open until 9 in the morning). I opened my truck door and stepped out. I was immediately got hit by the frigid cold wind that seemed like the gusts went right through my jacket. I tiled my truck seat forward…
