Characteristics of gloomy weather include partial darkness, dampness, thick cloud cover, and [rain]. Other characteristics can include cold cloudy weather, hours of persistent precipitation, hours of foggy conditions, day after day of below-freezing temperatures, persistent icy conditions, weather that cancels outdoor plans, and many hours or days without sunshine. The darkness created by the weather and the inconveniences from weather events such as rain, snow, fog, clouds and short winter days can create feelings of sluggishness. This weather can cause more people to have to stay indoors. There is no sunshine to spark feelings of energy and warmth. 2, record 3, English, - gloomy%20weather

StratSat provides a geo-stationary platform at 20 km altitude capable of remaining on-station for up to five years. Payloads include high speed Internet services, direct broadcast TV, mobile telecommunication, etc. The envelope operates as a super-pressure hull(i. e. with no ballonet pressure control system). The hull will be of laminated fabric construction with Tedlar/Teflon, helium/weather barrier developed from AT-10/04. Multiple catenary curtain system supporting a payload module enclosed completely by the envelope. [The] payload module... comprises a single structural module with an externally mounted payload/mission system. The payload module provides a home for all of the airship's primary systems except for the propulsion system. The systems are close packed within the highly insulated module ensuring efficient heat and energy management. The payload module is pendulum stabilised within the envelope. The solar array provides the sole source of renewable energy for the airship. The array is placed over the upper quarter of the hull and extends over approximately three-quarters of the length of the craft. The array can be realigned to the daily sun location/angle by the roll rotation of the whole airship. The energy collected by the solar array is stored for use during the night in the series of batteries. Located in the stored for use during the night in a series of batteries. Located in the payload module, the batteries run the propulsion system, airship services and provide power to the mission system for up to 14 hours(during winter). The airship is propelled and steered by means of a ’Contra-Rotating Coned Rotor’ mounted on a tailcone at the rear of the envelope, as a part of a compound propulsion system. The unit provides longitudinal thrust(to counter the prevailing stratospheric winds) and lateral force(for manoeuvering) to enable the airship to hold station within a 1 km cube. The airship will be equipped with a multi-channel Flight Control Sy 7, record 6, English, - StratSat%C2%AE

… the critical importance of accounting correctly for the relationship between wind availability and demand … shows clearly that over the winters 2006-9, the mean wind load factor across the hours of very highest demand was considerably lower than the mean load factor across more typical(lower) winter demands. This confirms that any group of hours spread across the whole winter, without consideration of demand level, will not be representative of absolute peak demand; plotting the mean load factor across all hours above a certain demand combines the degree of aggregation which is needed to reveal any trend, with the necessary focus on the hours of highest demand. 1, record 7, English, - mean%20load%20factor

[In the United States] the National Weather Service(NWS) is the official source of watches, warnings and advisories for hazardous weather. [Following is an explanation of] terms used by the NWS... A WATCH is issued when the risk of hazardous weather has increased significantly but its occurrence, location, and/or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide adequate lead time to those people who will be affected so that they may start to prepare for the event. Severe thunderstorm and tornado watches are usually issued 45 minutes before the event. Flood/flash flood watches are usually issued 3 to 24 hours in advance of the event. Hurricane, river flood, and winter storm watches, can be issued as much as 12 to 36 hours in advance. 6, record 11, English, - weather%20watch

Record number: 12, Textual support number: 1 OBS
norther : The term has several specific applications : 1) In the southern United States, especially in Texas(Texas norther), in the Gulf of Mexico, in the Gulf of Panama away from the coast, and in Central America(norte), the norther is a strong cold wind from between northeast and northwest. It occurs between November and April, freshening during the afternoon and decreasing at night. It is a cold air outbreak associated with the southward movement of a cold anticyclone. It is usually preceded by a warm and cloudy or rainy spell with southerly winds. The norther comes as a rushing blast and brings a sudden drop of temperature of as much as 25°F in one hour or 50°F in three hours in winter. 2) The California norther is a strong, very dry, dusty, northerly wind that blows in late spring, summer, and early fall in the valley of California or on the West Coast when pressure is high over the mountains to the north. It lasts from one to four days. The dryness is due to adiabatic warming during descent. In summer it is very hot. 3) The Portuguese norther is the beginning of the trade wind west of Portugal. 4) Norther is used for a strong north wind on the coast of Chile that blows occasionally in summer. 5) In southeast Australia, a hot dry wind from the desert is called a norther. 3, record 12, English, - norther

Record number: 13, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The name comes from the Arabic word habb, meaning wind. Haboobs are most frequent from May through September, especially in June, but they have occurred in every month except November. Their average duration is three hours; they are most severe in April and May when the soil is driest. They may approach from any direction, but most commonly from the north in winter and from the south, southeast, or east in summer. The average maximum wind velocity is over 13 m s1(30 mph) and a speed of 28 m s1(62 mph) has been recorded. The sand and dust form a dense whirling wall that may be 1000 m(3000 ft) high; it is often preceded by isolated dust whirls. During these storms, enormous quantities of sand are deposited. Haboobs usually occur after a few days of rising temperature and falling pressure. 4, record 13, English, - haboob

En général cette inversion n'est ni dangereuse ni pénalisante pour le vol VFR. Elle se matérialise par la présence de nuages précurseurs de la perturbation, qui s'abaissent régulièrement avec le niveau de l'inversion, à mesure que l'on se rapproche du front (Cirrus, cirrostratus, altocumulus, altostratus).
