Uneven heating

Hey guys,
I posted some sites to the left, one called "Earth Visualizations" the other "Seasons". Feel free to explore all the visuals, but if you want the ones we used in class go to Chapter 19- land and Sea breezes and Chapter 4- Revolution of Earth around the Sun. The link titled "Seasons" is the visualization on seasons that you all enjoyed. It should help you manipulate the earth in any way you like. Quiz on Friday. It's on Unequal heating of the earth (includes all we discussed about Land vs. Water, Latitude, Daylength/Seasons, and Elevation). Please study.

Crazy Storms

Hey guys,
Mrs. Roberts reminded me of a site that helps explain why we get the different types of precipitation that we do (snow, sleet, rain, etc..) check it out on the links list to the left. Maybe we'll see you next week??? We lost power for 36 hours at my house this wweekend. It was scary because of our kids (3yr old and 7 month old). We were able to get to a house with heat and keep everyone safe. But I'm worried again today. Either way, enjoy your unplanned vacations (trapped in your houses). See you soon,
Mr Crandell
