My name is Hayden Nielson I live in Davis County I am working on the weather merit badge. I have to find out what type of weather is most dangerous or damaging to my community and determine how severe weather and flood warnings reach the homes in my community. Can you help me find out this information? Thank you, Hayden N

I am doing a report on Kane County and one of the questions is what is the average yearly rainfall in Kane County? Thank you very much for your response back.

Is there also a jet stream in the southern hemisphere that flows from east to west?? It seems I may have heard that somewhere. Does it affect our weather in the Northern hemisphere? Also, how quickly can the jet stream change positions. Does it take days to be manuevered by a low or high pressure, or does the jet stream move the high and low pressures; can it take place in the matter minutes. I know a storm can come in quickly but does it take days to break down the high or low?

Hi,

I am a high school sophomore and my dream is to become a meteorologist.

I have a few questions, if you don't mind…

My question is this: what are the 6 driest states in the USA; if possible, please put in order- 1 thru 6. It is uncertain in my mind and here at work, we are having a rather mix-up debate on this issue.

Thank you,

Bob H.

I was looking at the forecast for today and saw that the projected high for the day was 53 F. But when I went to bed last night at 0100 it was in the mid 70's. You are obviously not counting from midnight. When does the weather day begin?

I saw this in the sky around noon and thought it looked really cool. It's a rainbow but there was no storm, does it have a particular name and if so what is it called? Does it have any meaning? Feel free to use the pictures if you would like to.

Thanks,
