"Cultivate nature, neglect your lawn"

"Why poison the earth when you can have wildflowers at your feet and songbirds in your trees without even trying?" Nothing is as beautiful as spring, "wrote Poet Gerard Manley Hopkins," When weeds grow in the wheels I tell myself this poem every day because I do not see any place too beautiful than the southern United States in the spring. The blooming trees – dogwood and redbuds and service berries, crab apples, peaches and cherries – are in complete glory and the woody shrubs cascading with flowers look like a fairy tale: forsythia and quince, lilac and spiral bridal veil. Whenever it rains here, the streets are paved with petals. "

"Two tornadoes just missed destroying a Mississippi weather radar"

"The severe heat outbreak that occurred this weekend in the eastern United States claimed the lives of nine people and caused Great South damage to New England. The magnitude of the weather on Saturday April 13 was not as severe as what forecasters initially feared were extremely favorable dynamics in parts of Louisiana and Mississippi. However, several storms managed to take advantage of the environment and to produce destructive tornadoes, two of these tornadoes fell a few kilometers from a meteorological radar in Mississippi, giving us an incredible view of how fast an intense tornado can develop. A grain line with integrated supercells crossed the northeastern Mississippi late Saturday night. One of these supercells produced a pair of violent tornadoes when she crossed the Monroe County, Mississippi, home to the KGWX website, a weather radar located about 28 miles north of Columbus Air Base.

"Stains 500 times bigger than Earth are ejected from the sun"

"We now know more about the gigantic" periodic density structures "that emerge from the sun every 90 minutes.The Parker solar probe is currently en route to the sun, to better understand the almost perfect hot plasma sphere that feeds our Back on Earth, scientists have been looking at data that has been around for decades and found something interesting: drops. Not just regular blobs. Big blobs. Officially called "periodic density structures", these spots in the solar wind emit blazing sun and can reach 50 to 500 times the size of the Earth. Apparently, these things emerge from the sun every 90 minutes or so. "They look like drops from a lava lamp," said Nicholeen Viall, an astrophysics researcher at NASA / Goddard Space Center, speaking to Space. "

"Vibrating bands provide wind energy where turbines can not"

In 2014, US Army engineers Charles Marsh and Carl Feickert envisioned a wind system inspired by Venetian blinds floating in an open window, and have since teamed up with eight colleagues to create a system that generates power in winds that are too light This prototype has eight flexible bands with "elastic tension gradient" mounted vertically in a row and attached to PVC tubes at the top and bottom.These tubes can be twisted adjust the tension of the bands . Oriented to be parallel to the wind direction, the bands wiggle like snakes in breezes blowing as slowly as less than 14 km / h (9 mph). In doing so, a copper induction coil located at the bottom of each strip moves along a smooth pipe filled with a magnet, which runs horizontally through it. The movement of the coil against the magnets creates an electric current, which is routed through a wiring in the pipe to a power converter. From there, it can be used to power devices or charge batteries. "

"Rid a dangerous myth about tornado sirens – they should not warn you inside"

"In the last 36 hours, I have witnessed the tornadic storms that have devastated parts of the southern United States. The National Meteorological Service's Storm Prediction Center has been warning for days that a powerful storm system would produce this type. I'm writing this essay in parts of Alabama, Georgia, and the Carolinas who need to keep a close eye on the weather. When I write these words, my region of Georgia is under the sign of the tornado until 14 hours. Over the years, some churches have even decided to cancel their services and I had no intention of writing anything until I see the following tweet: No tornado siren could be heard in the highland lakes! Large oaks and pines on houses. This could have been very serious with the kids' rooms mostly upstairs. Thanks for the warning @spann Do you know why they did not leave? The person who tweeted it had only the best intentions, so there is no intention to ridicule him. In fact, the Tweet is useful because it reminds the public facing the danger of tornado why you can not rely on the tornado sirens inside. "
