Meteorologist Debunks Weather Myths | WIRED
Chief Meteorologist for WNBC Janice Huff takes a look at some common myths we’ve all heard about the weather and meteorology, and parses out which are fact, and which are pure fiction. Can tornadoes cross water? Can lightning strike the same place twice? Are rainbows only seven colors? ►► Listen to the Get WIRED podcast…

Interesting, the rainbow encompasses the throne of God in a complete circle ⭕️ . Another interesting point, she says, is that there are seven colors in the bow, God’s number is seven, the number of completion.

An outlet in the USA is usually 110 volts. An electric dryer outlet is 220. But the main thing is that volts aren’t a measure of time vs amount of electric.

@Nathaniel Mitchell Weather does not even affect my life every day!! I was reading some three day old subreddit posts, everyone was like, “Be careful, it’s really slippery out today.” If I had not read those posts, I would never have even known that we had freezing rain.

The only reason the Rainbow is said to have 7 colours is because Isaac Newton wanted it to match up with the musical octave. He originally only had 5, excluding Orange and Indigo.

‘If your forecast is wrong then better watch me*
Gosh darn, ‘nother those meterologist who think murica is the center of the earth. Honey, I ain’t gonna watch yer doing a forecast in the back of the world while I’m more concerned with the weather on another continent.
And yes, weather forecast is not always wrong, but it’s not always right either. When it says one thing, there is a chance something else comes. Forecast is not foolproof, so better prepare for everything than just for one thing that isn’t even sure to be.

Yeah, people really do forget that the most powerful computer on the planet is still the human brain. A meteorologist’s interpretation of the gathered information is important to get accurate information, and if you doubt that, I can tell you for a fact that only one single person predicted the ’93 blizzard in Georgia, and it was the local weather man.

And she is black? How? I mean how did she lands that job in the first place? In South Africa all the jobs like financial and science are only done by Indians and whites here in South Africa. Indians are classified as black people together with arabs, Chinese Japanese and all other Asian. Even how qualified you are but as a black person she was gonna only do political sports or movie analysing

But I realize that’s a choice not a life decision 😂 ) Gotta save this video to show to my granddaughters 😊👏 Thank you again for your expertise !!! 🌺👍

rainbows have millions of colors, because there are millions of individual wavelengths of light, even just the ones within our range of vision.
our eyes can only detect red green and blue. mixtures of light generate all the colors in between.
now, technically it would be ok to say that the total number of *main* colors we can see are: red, blue, green, cyan, yellow & magenta. the additive and subtractive primary colors.
