Year of the Air Bends: History and Climate Shifts
The Year of the Air Bends marks a documented period of pronounced atmospheric meandering, during which northern hemisphere jet stream patterns shifted into high amplitude, blocked configurations. You'

How Does Altitude Affect Temperature
Temperature drops as you climb because air pressure decreases with elevation, causing rising air parcels to expand and cool. You're not feeling colder on a mountain because you're closer to outer spac
