Master List for Describing Weather

A lot of writers struggle with describing settings. I’ve written before about I have a weird love for creating lists like this, so I’m happy to do it. “How to describe weather” seemed like a good place to start. This way, you won’t get stuck trying to figure out how to describe nice weather, or thinking up ways to describe rain. Hopefully, this will make your writing go faster. [AdSense-B] I always include simple as well as more creative ways to describe or write about weather. Sometimes, the simple word is the one you want! I included dryness and humidity in a few of the categories because it felt weird for them to get their own. As always, this is not a comprehensive list, and I might add to it. My list will probably make you think of other possibilities, too. Bookmark or pin it for future writing reference!

"Breezy" vs "Windy" vs "Blustery"

Feeling a bit of a chill? As the last of the leaves drop (or perhaps only the temperatures drop in your area), the wind picks up and we button up to guard against it. Some days are nice and breezy , while others are so blustery you don’t want to leave the house without a scarf. Others still are just plain windy . Very rarely is a day all three. So how do you know which is the right word to describe the outside air blasting against your face? Breezy, blustery, and windy are all various ways to describe wind , which is defined as “air in natural motion.” But the descriptions are far from interchangeable. There aren’t many blustery days on the beaches of the Gulf Coast, for example, but there are plenty of breezy ones. And while it can seem like these descriptions are thrown around based on a feeling, each has a very specific definition from the National Weather Service (NWS). 📝 Key takeaway Breezy, blustery, and windy are all various ways to describe wind, which is defined as “air in natural motion.” But the descriptions are far from interchangeable. According to the National Weather Service, breezy is a wind between 15 and 25 mph during “mild weather” temperatures, while blustery weather is a wind that blows between 15 and 25 mph in cold temperatures. The official classification of windy weather is wind between 20 and 30 mph. What may surprise you is the meaning of all three words isn’t always restricted to talking about the weather. Maybe you’ve had the experience of an ea...

Weather models used in the Windy.app

Share: • Home • Support The weather depends on lots of different factors: wind speed, cloudiness, pressure, humidity, and others. All of them can be measured and represented in meters per second, millimeters of mercury, etc. A mathematical weather model is a combination of all these factors. Such models tend to be very complex, and powerful computers calculate them. Usually, weather models are provided by national weather services, but sometimes they can also be produced by groups of enthusiasts. On this page, we want to introduce you to our models, from which we get forecasts. Windy.app has two main types of forecast predictive models: global — on the map, and local — for a spot. There is also a third type of special global model for individual weather elements. This is a comparison table and the main features of each model: Weather models comparison table. Illustration: Valerya Milovanova / Windy.app Let's understand what the data in the table means: • Weather modelis the source of the weather forecast. The model name is usually an acronym consisting of two or more words describing its origin, purpose, and other features, for example, ECMFW (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). • Territoryis an area of land and sea for which the weather model makes a forecast. A local model may cover parts of the world and separate natural and geographical regions, such as Europe or the Mediterranean Sea. • Spatial resolution is the distance between two points of the weat...
