Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall” Music K-8, Vol “Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall” Music K-8, Vol. 29, No. 3 Choreography: Melissa Schott Dear Teachers… What a fun song to use for practicing group work in your classroom choreography! Keep it simple by assigning a word, so kids can associate their group with the lyrics. They will find this simpler than worrying about counts. While the choreography has been kept simple, by getting creative with how you group kids, it can be an audience pleaser no matter the age of your students. The jazz square shows up in this piece. It may be helpful to teach this basic movement before working on the entire piece. This way, when the jazz square comes up, it’s easy for the kids to insert the step. Happy dancing!

GeoColor satellite image from the morning of 15 February, 2021. February 2021 South Central Texas Historical Winter Storm Event South-Central Texas Winter Storm Event February 10-18, 2021 Event Summary Overview An unprecedented and historical eight-day period of winter weather occurred between 10 February and 18 February across South-Central Texas. The first push of arctic air arrived in the area on 10 February, with the cold air dropping temperatures into the 20s and 30s across most of the area. The first of several frozen precipitation events occurred on the morning of 11 February where up to 0.75 inches of freezing rain accumulated on surfaces in Llano and Burnet Counties and 0.25-0.50 inches of freezing rain accumulated across the Austin metropolitan area with lesser amounts in portions of the Hill Country and New Braunfels area. For several days, the cold air mass remained in place across South-Central Texas, but a much colder air mass remained stationary across the Northern Plains. This record-breaking arctic air was able to finally move south into the region late on 14 February and into 15 February as a strong upper level low-pressure system moved through the Southern Plains. As this system moved through the region, snow began to fall and temperatures quickly fell into the single digits and teens. Most areas of South-Central Texas picked up at least an inch of snow with the highest amounts seen from Del Rio and Eagle Pass extending to the northeast into the Austin and San Antonio areas.

  • Winter Jet Stream Trends Over the Northern Hemisphere
    QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY Q. J. R. Meteorol. Soc. 133: 2109–2115 (2007) Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/qj.171 Winter jet stream trends over the Northern Hemisphere Courtenay Stronga* and Robert E. Davisb a University of California, Irvine, USA b Department of Environmental Sciences, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA ABSTRACT: Trends in the speed and probability of winter jet stream cores over the Northern Hemisphere were measured for 1958–2007, and related changes in the thermal structure of the troposphere were identified. Eddy-driven jet (EDJ) core speeds and probabilities increased over the midlatitudes (40–60 °N), with changes as large as 15% (speed) and 30% (probability). These increasing trends are collocated with increases in baroclinicity driven by a spatially heterogeneous pattern of height change consisting of large-scale warming with cooling centres embedded poleward of 60 °N. The cooling centres reduced high-latitude baroclinicity, making jet cores poleward of 60 °N less frequent and weaker. Over the west and central Pacific, subtropical jet stream (STJ) core probabilities remained relatively constant while core speeds increased by as much as 1.75 m/s decade−1 in association with Hadley cell intensification. The STJ shifted poleward over the east Pacific and Middle East, and an equatorward shift and intensification of the STJ were found over the Atlantic basin–contributing to an increased separation of the EDJ and STJ.

  • NJSIAA Updates High School Sports Calendar
    Contact: Michael Cherenson (973.919.6228 or [email protected]) NJSIAA updates high school sports calendar Winter competition pushed into the New Year Spring schedules to be finalized in December ROBBINSVILLE, NJ (Nov. 19, 2020) – The NJSIAA’s Sports Advisory Task Force – the statewide group of athletic administrators tasked with developing return-to-play protocols for New Jersey high school sports – today issued its final plan for the winter sports season. Competition for all winter sports will begin after the New Year. Ice hockey may start practicing on December 14, 2020; basketball, fencing and bowling may start practicing on January 11, 2021; swimming and winter track & field may start practicing on February 1; and gymnastics, girls’ volleyball, and wrestling may start practicing on March 1. The following is the 2020-2021 winter sports calendar (Download Here). Under Executive Order 196, indoor practices and competitions are limited to 10 persons, however, if the number of individuals who are necessary for the practice or competition, such as players, coaches, and referees, is greater than 10 persons, the practice or competition may proceed. If this exception applies, the number of individuals still may not exceed 25 percent of the capacity of the room in which it takes place, or 150 persons, whichever is less. Practically speaking, this means that spectators are prohibited. (more) 1 Page 2 of 2 A memo, shared with all NJSIAA member schools, provides greater detail on the current plan. The Sports Advisory Task Force remains committed to providing as complete of a spring season as possible and will release final spring sports season plans on or before Friday, December 11, 2020.

    CHAPTER 15 The jet stream and climate change Martin Stendel1, Jennifer Francis2, Rachel White3, Paul D. Williams4, Tim Woollings5 1Department of Climate and Arctic Research, Danish Meteorological Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark; 2Woodwell Climate Research Center, Falmouth, MA, United States; 3Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada; 4Department of Meteorology, University of Reading, Reading, United Kingdom; 5Department of Physics, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom 1. Introduction 1.1 Jet streams The jet streams are powerful, relatively narrow currents of air that encircle the globe from west to east in both the northern and southern hemispheres. While the strongest winds are found at heights of 10e15 km, typical of cruising aircraft, jet streams, particularly in temperate latitudes, “steer” the movement of frontal zones and air masses, thus affecting sur- face weather and contributing to the prevailing westerly winds familiar to many in the mid- latitude regions. The jet streams rose to prominence in meteorology following World War II, when high- altitude air campaigns had on several occasions been adversely affected by unexpectedly strong winds [1]. The establishment of hemispheric-scale networks of radiosonde observa- tions by Carl-Gustav Rossby and collaborators in the 1940s and 1950s identified for the first time the global nature of the jet streams and the waves that propagate along them [2]. Since then, the jets have been central to our understanding of weather patterns and climate variability. Although not observed or measured until relatively recently, the existence of jet streams was theorized by George Hadley in the 18th century in his groundbreaking discussion on the cause of the tropical trade winds [3].

  • Air Masses, Fronts, Storm Systems, and the Jet Stream
    Air Masses, Fronts, Storm Systems, and the Jet Stream Air Masses When a large bubble of air remains over a specific area of Earth long enough to take on the temperature and humidity characteristics of that region, an air mass forms. For example, when a mass of air sits over a warm ocean it becomes warm and moist. Air masses are named for the type of surface over which they formed. Tropical = warm Polar = cold Continental = over land = dry Maritime = over ocean = moist These four basic terms are combined to describe four different types of air masses. continental polar = cool dry = cP continental tropical = warm dry = cT maritime polar = cool moist = mP maritime tropical = warm moist = mT The United States is influenced by each of these air masses. During winter, an even colder air mass occasionally enters the northern U.S. This bitterly cold continental arctic (cA) air mass is responsible for record setting cold temperatures. Notice in the central U.S. and Great Lakes region how continental polar (cP), cool dry air from central Canada, collides with maritime tropical (mT), warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico. Continental polar and maritime tropical air masses are the most dominant air masses in our area and are responsible for much of the weather we experience. Air Mass Source Regions Fronts The type of air mass sitting over your location determines the conditions of your location. By knowing the type of air mass moving into your region, you can predict the general weather conditions for your location. Meteorologists draw lines called fronts on surface weather maps to show the positions of air masses across Earth’s surface.
