How Science Works

1.) For this assignment, I chose to observe the wind.
2.) I wondered how the wind blows, where is it coming from, and why it is blowing so hard.
3.)  a. I observed that the sand is blowing very ferociously.
      b. I observed that my trees are falling down in the same directions, even after I continuously       
          pick them up.
      c. I observed that the sun was still shining, and no storm clouds appeared in the sky.
      d. I observed that boxes were easily being lifted off the ground and into the sky.
      e. I observed there were no birds flying in the sky.
4.) New Mexico weather changes daily, and sometimes even through out the day. In the morning it could
     be sunny and hot and by the end of the day it could be snowing. I believe the constant changes of the
     temperature, causes different metric pressure in the environment, therefore causing there to be wind
     often, and at high force.
5.) a. If the weather stayed consistent more often, than it would likely be less windy.
     b. I think that depending on your location around the mountains, will make a difference in the force of
         wind one is experiencing.
6.) In conclusion, based on the observations that I experienced, I have come to the thought that
      experience with wind is different in every state. In New Mexico we have stronger winds because
      our climate / temperature changes daily, and can be drastic. This effects then in turn, cause higher
      wind forces. The mountains also have an effect of the power of wind, depending on your position to
      the mountains.
