Why does the wind nearly allways drop at night?
Answers:
has to do with the sun being the "fuel".. the energy source. Wind is about heating and cooling over wide areas. Air rising and falling, high and low pressure. Unless there is storm that has stored, and is producing, it's own energy, most wind dies off at night due to a lack of fuel.
WInd at night? Of course, but not often unless it's being forced.
because he is a ****
That is not true. In many countries such as Singapore, the most windy time of the day is night.
depends weather you've had a curry or not
because its away to its bed
in only some places as the earth cools and the sea and land mass equalise the forces driving wind relax
My wind doesn't drop off at all at night - in fact it seems to ramp up to a totally different gear, my wife can testify to it. Many's the time she's been in the Dutch Oven.
There is a stillness in the wind
Before the hurricane begins
It didn't drop here last night ( i'm in the south)
it was blowing a gale early hours of the morning.
I drop wind at any time of the day or night.
Snaredrum nailed it. Deserves 10 points.
Not entirely. Prevailing winds are caused by the rotation of the Earth and therefore blow at any time of day or night. Likewise, putting it really simply, if a wind is being caused on the other side of the planet air has to rush in to fill the void causing a wind from 'Around the bend', irrespective of whether it's dark or light there.
Wind is a fine example of Brownian motion. Although we know roughly what it's going to do and why, its behaviour can never be predicted 100%.
So the correct answer to the question is, we don't know, on other parts of the planet it doesn't.
There is a reason why, because night time is when the cool temperature drop that wind is not necessary unless it was cloudy. When the cool temperature air dropped, the reverse method occurred is the ground turned warm, that you can feel it when you are swimming at night.
I agree with mike m , snaredrum nailed it.
