weather affects mood is explored, highlighting the psychological impact of environmental factors on human emotions. The story portrays the isolation and despair of a couple, Ellen and Paul, as they struggle to survive a devastating dust storm on their farm, which leads to heightened tensions and emotional distress. Sinclair Ross uses the harsh and unforgiving weather to symbolize the couple's inner turmoil and the destructive effects of human isolation and environmental degradation on the human psyche

isolated farm during the Great Depression. The extreme elements prove to be too much for Ellen to handle as they are constantly harassed by dust storms, strong winds in addition to the barren farmland that Paul refuses abandon. The author uses symbolism in the setting to convey the theme that prolonged periods of isolation leads to hopelessness and eventually insanity.

desires to flee while they still can, pressures Ellen to take action, resulting is Paul’s sudden epiphany into the reality of his circumstance. “There are two winds: the wind in flight and the wind that pursues.” Paul as the dominant home provider is painted clearly as the wind that pursues. It is his personal choice to stay at the farm and defend his legacy that

This section discusses the results are obtained from Matlab/Simulink software. The simulation consequences are obtained in two scenarios with taking in account the variation of wind generation. The first scenario examines the test system with SSSC, set on Line 1 and between the buses 1 and 2, but without power oscillation damping (POD) role. This exam is conducted through applying three-phase fault at midpoint of Line 2. The fault is applied at 1.33 second and it takes 10 cycles to clear the fault

biggest storm that occurred there in the winter season of 2014-2015. Massachusetts was declared to be in a state of emergency. The storm closed down schools, shopping centers, businesses, public services and many more places. The storm caused heavy winds at 50-80 mph. The town of Duxbury, which is along the coast, received a lot of damage. There was major flooding and a lot of snow. According to the article, “Massachusetts Recovers from Winter Storm Juno”, “At one point, more than 30,000 across the

extremely high winds blowing the snow every which way, making it very difficult to see what’s in front of you. You certainly don’t think of a blizzard to kill 235 people, including 213 children just trying to make it home from school. The Children’s Blizzard of 1888 included many details common to blizzards, had incredible devastation due to the welcoming conditions beforehand, and involved some very surprising circumstances. Blizzards are an extended, severe snowstorms, in which winds must reach a

Weather reports are flashing: Stay inside! Stay inside! California has never experienced a storm like this before. The wind is blowing fifty-five miles per hour and the average snowfall per hour is 4 inches'. If the snow continues, we could become trapped indoors! I've never seen this much snowfall in all my life, I would advise for everywhere to stay indoors, and keep your fireplace on. ~ Farmer Lynn turned off the television and headed for her barn to warn her animals. It was complete chaos inside

Minus One Birds set aloft in search of roost cast darting shadows upon the crops, seeking the shelter of oak and sycamore at farm’s edge. The final swathe of afternoon sun set fields of barley ablaze. Nestled by the foothills of a mountain range, the farm land lay just below the Oregon border. As the sun slipped lower the incoming tide of evening claimed each field stalk by stalk with an increasing appetite for darkness. Where the hilly terrain rendered cultivation an impossibility, the furrowed earth

Moonlight shone upon a restless and frost covered clearing. Insects were buzzing and chirping as a bone-numbing breeze stirred the tall grass, spooking the small creatures within. These cold gusts of wind fell from the nearby Atlan Mountains, their large and domineering forms cast enormous shadows down upon the surrounding land; obscuring threats and causing illusions to meander to and fro. Large ancient oak trees acted as astute wardens, as they surrounded the field, giving one a sense of safety

going across the atlantic ocean. It got 500 miles wide as it was coming to the east coast. When it eventually hit New England the wind speed was 155 mph which is obviously fast enough to blow someone off there own two feet. To top all of this off there was flooding from the hurricane. The flooding was 14ft high. The hurricane had a huge impact on a lot of things. Farms

Zaki Araujo Mr. Jacob Geography 7 The Sahara Desert Africa is one of the largest continents, Africa is also home to the largest desert in the world, the Sahara desert. The Sahara Desert is known for its harsh and brutal environment and in fact, it is one of the harshest environments. Due to its very harsh environments, it is near to impossible to live there. There are few resources that make survival in the Sahara possible. Things such as oases, rain, rivers, plants, and animals make it possible

Discuss the key factors which led to California 's prominence as the leading agricultural state. Background: California produces more than 200 different farm commodities. Most agricultural states economy, such as California’s, solely depend on a single crop. Examples of singles crop would be corn, tobacco, cotton, meat or dairy products. The field planting that went on at the missions was later complemented by cattle ranching and sheep grazing. By the early 1860s, more than 3 million cattle wander

the land, painting the trees and hills white with snow. The lakes, ponds, and rivers were covered by a thick layer of frozen ice, and in the blizzard, four dark figures could be seen marching on. Four travelers on a quest were pushing through the icy wind, covering themselves with long and warm winter coats. One of the four travelers was a knight, a noble, brave, and straightforward person who was taken away at the age of seven from his family of farmers, to be trained as a soldier for the kingdom

Moreover, it allowed the farmers sew three rows of seed at a time, which save them much time. This seed drill dramatically improved the production so greatly that later Britain was labeled as the “Granary of Europe”. + In 1730 the Rotherham plough

most common disaster in the North Eastern countries. They are nothing heavy and ferocious winter storms along with strong wind of about 40 miles per hour. Blizzard can last for two hours. Blizzards cannot be as accurately predicted as earthquakes or tsunamis. Blizzards usually cover the roads with snow and the snow is so powerful that it can even overwhelm the cars. The winds which occur along with blizzards usually uproot trees. Houses with very thin and soft roofs are easily damaged because of

What is wind? Wind is a form of energy, caused by differences in air pressure. Air under high pressure moves toward areas of low pressure. The greater the difference in pressure, the faster the air flows. Why does wind or air pressure matter, you may ask? It is capable of many great feats, some destructive, such as destroying buildings, cascading walls or even lifting trees from their roots in the ground. The speed of wind is measured on the Beaufort Scale, which goes from the speed of less than

Wind Energy: Not to Be Blown Away If you have ever traveled from Sacramento to Livermore, California, you cannot help but notice the giant wind turbines that are placed among the hills that are multiple stories high. I have always wondered how beneficial these wind turbines are, and what possible effects does it have on our economy and environment. In an article by the New York Times written by Diane Cardwell, she explains that in 2008 – 2009 the wind industry employed 85,000 people and 10,000

the principle on how a wind vane works. A wind vane is an instrument that is used to measure the winds direction. To do this, the wind vane spins and then points to which direction the wind is coming from. One end of the wind vane is shaped like an arrow and that is the side that points to the direction of the wind. The other side looks wider and that’s the side that catches the wind to move. The wind vane points to the direction the wind is coming from. 2. Determine the wind direction if the arrow
