To travel here in Brgy. Don Enrique Lopez, City of Mati isn’t a good idea for tourist.

Days 15th, 16th, 19th and 20th on January 2021 the weather is intermittently cloudy .The

precipitations are not continuous and interrupted at moment. “Broken Clouds” are present at the

sky. The occurrence of intermittent shower is not consistently predicted but it may rain

sporadically throughout the day. Dark clouds have covered the sky and cold winds have

occupied the surroundings. “To rain” has a big possibility. Yet chilling out never goes out a

question. The shades of dark clouds have covered the Don Enrique Lopez community.

Clouds are a kind of atmospheric factor that most effectively scatters the artificial light

coming from the ground. Therefore, they have the most significant impact on the brightness of

the night sky. The paper analyses the influence of both the level of cloudiness, as well as the

general of clouds and altitude of its base, on amplifying of the light pollution. The impact of

cloudiness on the brightness of the night sky in places with different levels of light pollution was

researched. Measurements of meteorological elements were used together with clouds general

assessments. The introduction of an innovative method of identifying some general of clouds on

the base of the all-night continuous measurements of the sky's brightness allowed for a similar

analysis in the absence of observational data specifying the general of clouds. (Ściężor T. 2020)

The over cast, partly cloudy and clear sky conditions can determine the diffuse sky

radiance and luminance distributions over the sky dome, and thus are crucial for evaluating the

solar energy and day light on and through building envelopes. It is preferable to properly identify

the sky condition and determining its diffuse radiance and luminance distribution patterns by

there a daily available data. In this work, we propose an approach to identifying the sky

conditions, especially the cloudy and clear skies mainly by the horizontal luminance fluctuation

frequency. Luminance on ground level may fluctuate at high frequency under cloudy skies due to
the broken cloud, while vary smoothly under clear skies with few cloud blockages. (Siweilou,

2019)

Stratus clouds format low altitude and are more closely related to fog than the other type

soft clouds. They aren't the same as the fog, however, because fog usually forms from moisture

already in the air. They occur when air current push air above a blanket of warm air moisture

quickly condenses. The air current that form stratus clouds are usually light and conditions are

usually still. The clouds will hang around as long as conditions remain that way. (Dezel C. 2018)

According to Robert Sundberg, 2019 entitled ‘Full Spectrum Simulation of Partly Cloudy

Scenes’ stated that spectral imagers which collect optical data from the visible to the long wave

infrared (LWIR) may collect data under partly cloudy sky scenarios. To fully exploit this data, a

better understanding of the influence of cloudy conditions on the collected data is required. Here

we examine the influence of broken cloud fields on collected data by simulating a partly cloudy

scene as observed by hyper spectral sensors which are collecting data both above and below the

cloud deck. To perform these simulations, we have used the MCScene code, a high-fidelity

model for full optical spectrum (UV to LWIR) image simulation. The MCScene simulation is

based on a Direct Simulation Monte Carlo approach for modelling 3D atmospheric radioactive

transport, as well as spatially in homogeneous surfaces including surface BRDF effects. The

model includes treatment of land and ocean surfaces, 3D terrain, 3D surface objects, and effects

of finite clouds with surface shadowing.

Boundary‐layer clouds that form below capping in versions can be poorly represented in

GCMs if their depth is thinner than, or comparable to, the vertical resolution of the model. This

can lead to poor forecast soft cloud cover and surface temperature. The effect of low‐level clouds
on surface temperatures is of critical forecasting importance, for example in deciding whether to

grit roads. Low‐level clouds are also important due to their feedbacks on the climate system

(Slingo, 1990; Bonyand Dufresne, 2005). Consequently, improving there presentation of

shallow, low‐level clouds is desirable for any GCM used for numerical weather prediction

(NWP) or climate simulations.(C.J.Morcrette2010)

Let's start by discussing how clouds form. The air around you is full of water limits

gaseous form, called water vapor. When the air near the ground warms, its tart stories, taking the

water vapor along with it. The air starts to cool as it rises higher in to the sky, causing the water

vapor to condense on to atmospheric dust from volcanoes, car exhaust and other sources. The

resulting water droplets and ice crystals coalesce, or join together, to form clouds. Unlike

atmospheric particles that scatter more blue light than other colors (making the sky blue), the tiny

cloud particles equally scatter all colors of light, which together makeup white light. However,

rainclouds are gray instead of white because of their thickness, or height. That is, a cloud gets

thicker and denser as it gathers more water droplet sand ice crystals the thicker it gets, the more

light it scatters, resulting less light penetrating all the way through it. The particles on the

underside of the rain cloud don't have a lot of light to scatter to your eyes, so the base appears

gray as you look on from the ground below. This effect becomes more pronounced the larger the

water droplets get such as right before they're large enough to fall from the sky as rain or snow

because they become more efficient at absorbing light, rather than scattering it. (Castro J. 2013)

Clouds play a significant role in the derivation of land surface temperature (LST) from

optical remote sensing. The estimation of LST under cloudy sky conditions has been a great

challenge for the community for a long time. In this study, a scheme for recovering the LST

under cloudy skies is proposed by accounting for the solar ‐ cloud ‐satellite geometry effect,
through which the LST soft shadowed and illuminated pixels covered by clouds in the image are

estimated. The validation shows that the new scheme can work well and has reasonable LST

accuracy with a root mean square. The application of the new method to the Moderate

Resolution Imaging Spectrum-radiometer (MODIS) and Landsat‐8 data reveals that the LST

sunder cloud layers can be reasonably recovered and that the fraction of valid LST sin an image

can be correspondingly improved. The method is not data specific; instead, it can be used in any

optical remote sensing images as long as the proper input variables are provided. As an

alternative approach to derive cloudy sky LSTs based only on optical remote sensing data, it

gives some new ideas to the remote sensing community, especially in the field soft surface

energy balance. (TianxingWang, 2019)

Precipitation forms in the clouds when water vapor condenses into bigger and bigger

droplets of water. When the drops are heavy enough, they fall to the Earth. If a cloud is colder,

like it would be at higher altitudes, the water droplets may freeze to form ice. These ice crystals

then fall to the Earth as snow, hail, or rain, depending on the temperature within the cloud and at

the Earth’s surface. Most rain actually begins as snow high in the clouds. As the snowflakes fall

through warmer air, they become rain drops.

Particles of dust or smoke in the atmosphere are essential for precipitation. These

particles, called “condensation nuclei,” provide a surface for water vapor to condense upon. This

helps water drop let gather together and become large enough to fall to the Earth.

A common misconception is that when rain drops fall, they have a tear drop shape. In

fact, smaller rain drops (ones that are approximately 1 milli-meter (0.039inches) across) are

almost perfectly spherical. Larger raindrops (2–3millimeters (.078-.118inches) across) are also

round, but with a small in dent on their bottom side. They look more like kidney beans when
falling to the Earth. Very large rain drops (larger than 4.5 millimetres (.177inches) have a huge

indent and look more like a parachute. These extra-large drops usually end up splitting into two

smaller droplets. The indents on raindrops are caused by air resistance.

Precipitation is always fresh water, even when the water originated from the ocean. This

is because sea salt does not evaporate with water. However, in some cases, pollutants in the

atmosphere can contaminate water droplets before they fall to the Earth. The precipitation that

results from this is called acid rain. Acid rain does not harm humans directly, but it can make

lake sand streams more acidic. This harms aquatic ecosystems because plants and animal soften

cannot adapt to the acidity. (National geographic 2019)

Spectral imagers which collect optical data from the visible to the long wave in fared

(LWIR) may collect data under partly cloudy skies scenarios. To fully exploit this data, a better

understanding of the influence of cloudy conditions on the collected data is required. Here we

examine the influence of broken cloud fields on collected data by simulating a partly cloudy

scene as observed by hyper spectral sensors which are collecting data both above and below the

cloud deck. To perform these simulations, we have used the MCScene code, a high fidelity

model for full optical spectrum (UV to LWIR) image simulation. The MCScene simulation is

based on a Direct Simulation Monte Carlo approach for modeling 3D atmospheric radioactive

transport, as well as spatially in homogeneous surfaces including surface BRDFeffects. The

of finite clouds with surface shadowing. (Sunberg R. 2019)

Stratus clouds format low altitude and are more closely related to fog than the other type

soft clouds. They aren't the same as the fog, however, because fog usually forms from moisture

already in the air. They occur when air current push air above a blanket of warm air moisture
quickly condenses. The air current that form stratus clouds are usually light and conditions are

usually still. The clouds will hang around as long as conditions remain that way. (Dezel C.(2018)

The formless dense blanket of grey covering the sky and creating a mild palpable sense

of gloom is composed of stratus clouds. They aren't rain clouds, but they can create a fine must

and if they are dense enough and conditions are right it will rain.

Cloud sand fogs are basically the same thing, but most clouds form only at elevation,

while fogs form in earth ground. Clouds and fogs occur because of moisture condensation, but at

high relegation the water tends to freeze into cycrustal making high altitude clouds more

reflective and impressive than the form in earth ground. (Dezel C. 2018)

According to Salazar J. (2011) some clouds help keep earth warm in part depending on

how high up they are in our atmosphere. That's according to Steven Platnick a satellite researcher

with NASA, who spoke with earth sky in late 2010. Platnick studies clouds and how they

connect with earth’s climate. He said that low, fluffy cloud kept us cooler. But its different story

for cloud that are high up in the atmosphere said Platnick. Those high whippy clouds actually

keep earth warm, like a blanket, by preventing heat from escaping into space.

The most important to understand their effect on global climate is we need to know how

they're globally distributed and how they vary over the course of year. And you need satellites to

obtain the statistics over those scales. It's really impossible for most of those quantities to get the

same statistics from ground based or aircraft to servation.

Did you ever wonder that cold and flu correspond in the rainy season? This Garatan S.

(2019) confirmed that cold is caused by a virus, which is not influenced by rain however, certain

cold viruses spread more easily in the winter because they function better at low temperature.

Cold weather correlates with colds but rain cannot cause you to catch cold. To limit your chance
of catching cold, wash your hand or sanitize them after touching things that other with virus may

have touched to limit spreading the cold wear a mask sterilized your hand cough into your

elbow, and if possible don't go to word or try to work at home where you have cold.

Together with stratus cloud, some of those days we experience a light rain shower so

what does rain shower means? According to Means T. (2020) the word rain shower are simple

two ways of expressing how intense the rain will fall, and how long will it last. Rain fall steadily,

lasts for hours or days and in generally wide spread across your city. If you were to drive from

your home to airport in the rain you could expect it to rain during the entire trip. On the other

hand rain showers are considered to be light rain fall that has a shorter duration than the rain, and

is more scattered across an area.

Green roof shave shown are markable effect on the reduction of the building cooling

loading summer the assessment of the thermal performance of green roofs is essential for their

design and evaluation. This study investigated the thermal characteristics of an extensive green

roof under air-conditioned and non air- conditioned states by using experimental data obtained

on successive sunny summer days. Two indices of the green roof, namely thee quivalent thermal

resistance and the equivalent decrement factor, were estimated through comparison with a

common bare roof. Under then on-air conditioned state, the distribution of the average

temperature on the green roof profile was S-sharp. The lowest average temperature of the green

roof was observe don’t he interface between the planting soil and roof structure, which were 1.8

and 0.9°C below the outdoor and indoor air temperature ,respectively .This finding indicated that

the bottom of the soil layer functioned as a “cooling source” that absorbed heat from the upside

and downside. The indoor critical air temperature that maintains the heat flux equal to zero was

investigated on the basis of the experimental data. The influence of indoor critical air
temperature on the equivalent thermal resistance was discussed; for the same green roof under

the same outdoor climatic conditions, an indoor air temperature that is closer to the indoor

critical air temperature yields a higher equivalent thermal resistance. Therefore, the equivalent

thermal resistance of the green roof obtained under low indoor air temperature is recommended

for practical use. (Ming fang Tang, 2019)

The second mostly experienced weather here in the Philippines is sunny. According to

Sobolewski A. et al (2020) the heat sensation forms apart of range of human subjective feeling

that may attribute to a variety of reason. High air temperature does not necessarily have to be its

direct cause because heat may because by extremely physical effort in allow ambient

temperature, the same thermal sensation that is generated by strong emotions or a health

condition caused by an infection from a psychological point of view, the warm or hot sensation

is associated with body heat accumulation expressed in joules, which is accompanied by an

increase in human body temperature. So it means human needs to being good health condition

and in good psychological condition to avoid heat stress.

Natural day light has an essential effect on the human organism. It affects mood, emotion

or the ability to sleep. For most people, a sunny summer day is the most pleasant day. For this

reason, we propose an indoor lighting source which imitates sunny summer day light. We

collected a series of experimental measurements of days during the summer of 2018. We chose

the sunniest day (minimum cloud, high temperature, high total time of sunshine) and we used its

optical parameters as an example. The obtained parameters (color coordinates x and y) served as

the input parameters for Light Tools simulations. Simulations in Light Tools enabled to obtain

power settings of individual color chips. The power values were transformed into forward

current values of individual color chips. Subsequent, laboratory measurements of the optical
parameters according the forward current values were done with at etrachromatic RGBALED.

Suitable setting of forward currents of the RGBALED enables to create sunny day light from

sunrise to sunset. The laboratory measurement confirmed our assumptions; the imitation of day

light was successful. (Jan Vitasek, 2020)

Very few studies, however have directly investigated the effect of weather on

productivity at work. One notable exception is research by Cachon, Gallino, and Olivares

(2011).Using weekly production data from automobile plants over at end year period, these

scholars found that regions that had more day soft severe weather (such as snowstorms)

experienced significant aggregate production loss for factories as compared with regions that

have good weather conditions. The researchers suggested that the loss in factory production was

likely due to physical disruptions, such as difficulty getting to work or delivering supplies, rather

than low worker productivity. Thus, the study focused on how weather directly influenced

suppliers’ and workers’ behaviours by creating obstacles in the way they commonly operate. To

date, no studies have examined potential psychological mechanisms through which weather

affects individual worker productivity, which is the focus of our current investigation.

The heat sensation forms apart of range of human subjective feeling that may attribute to

a variety of reason. High air temperature does not necessarily have to be its direct cause because

heat may because by extremely physical effort in alowambient temperature, the same thermal

sensation that is generated by strong emotions or a health condition caused by an infection from

a psychological point of view, the warm or hot sensation is associated with body heat

accumulation expressed in joules, which is accompanied by an increase in human body

temperature. So it means human needs to being good health condition and in good psychological

condition to avoid heat stress. (Sobolewski A. et al 2020)


The heat causes accumulation in the body can be distinguished and its heat accumulated

when the rate of energy produce in the body (the metabolic rate) is so fast that the environment is

unable to take up all of heat generated at one time and also the ambient temperature and/or the

radiation temperature trout number the average skin surface temperature. (Sobolewski A. et al

2020)

A warm and sunny day. According to De Brabandere, S. (2018), "Warm in the Sun". The

sun is some 93 million miles (150 million kilometres) from Earth. But because its surface is so

hot (about 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit), we on Earth benefit from the light it radiates—without it

humans could not survive. The light radiated by our sun carries energy, part of which gets

absorbed and transformed into heat when it reaches a surface. That is why places in the sun feel

warmer than those in the shade. Another part of the light is reflected. That part makes surfaces

look lighter and brighter in sunlight. Earth is covered with water, soil, rocks, snow and ice as

well as a wealth of human-made materials, such as concrete. When these surfaces are exposed to

the sun, they warm up. This process takes time—and some materials, such as water, need more

light from the sun to warm up a few degrees than do others, such as soil or rocks. Once warmed,

these surfaces release heat, which warms the air above them. This process is also gradual, and

some materials including water hold onto heat longer than do others, such as soil or rocks. This

difference generally makes the temperature of coastal climates more moderate than those inland.

But other natural factors, such as trees and plants, moderate the air temperature, too. Plants

absorb water from the ground and transpire (release water into the air), which works like a

natural air conditioner.

From intermittent cloudy the other day, rain has finally dropped on the land of Don

Enrique Lopez, City of Mati! Droplets of rain have already touched every house’s roof and have
cleansed dry leaves. On the days of 17th, 18th, and 21st of January 2021. Dark clouds at the sky

have finally release the water they heavily carry. Cold winds have spread all over the place and

the rain is unstoppable. To stay at home is the best thing to do for this weather which also

demands to get blanket and keep body warm. What a perfect weather to sleep.

Rain tend to fall from flat, gray stratus clouds, you can set showers are falling. The

weather conditions that produce rain and rain showers also differ if a warm on cold front is

crossing your state, rain is sure to follow, but, if its simply balmy day, don't be surprised if

shower pop up in the late afternoon the heart warms pockets of air which let them rise up higher

into the atmosphere cooling as they journey upward and triggering water vapor within them to

condense and eventually fall out of the sky as rain drop. (Means T. 2020)

The rising air creates a giant vacuum effect. Hence, a zone of low pressure is produced

with the lowest pressure near the center of the storm. As a storm approaches a particular area, the

barometric pressure will lower. In some sensitive people, body aches maybe more severe due to

the pressure change. As the air in the storm rises, it cools. As the air cools, moisture within the

air condenses to form clouds and rain and snow. Falling barometric pressure, or the approach of

a low pressure area, is often an indicator of rain, ice and snow arriving soon. As the amount of

rising air increases, air must rush in from the side store place there is in grain earth center of the

storm. Them or violent the rising air near the center, the faster the air must rush in from the sides.

This is what sometimes creates strong winds. The rotation of the Earth creates a force that causes

the rushing air coming in from the sides to spin counter clock wise in the Northern Hemisphere

and clock wise in the Southern Hemisphere. (Sosnowski A. 2018)

There are quite a number of scientific terms commonly used in weather forecasting and

low pressure is one of the most widely used terms. However, many people may not be exactly
sure of what a low pressure area is quite simply, a low pressure area is a storm. Hurricane sand

large-scale rain and snow events (blizzards and or ’Easters) in the winter are examples of storms.

Thunder storms, including tornadoes, are examples of small-scale low pressure areas. A low

pressure area usually begins to form as air from two regions collides and is forced upward.

(Sosnowski A. 2018)

Low pressure area strikes only in Bicol regions and other parts of Visayas still we

experience rain on the day 5 because of the ITCZ that have found in the right side of Mindanao

area. So what is inter tropical convergence zone? According to OCHA (2015). The Inter tropical

Convergence Zone, or ITCZ, is there goon that circles the Earth, near the equator, where the

trade winds of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres come together. The intense sun and

warm water of the equator heats the air in the ITCZ, raising its humidity and making it buoyant.

Aided by the convergence of the trade winds, the buoyant air rises. As the air rises it expands and

cools, releasing the accumulated moisture in an almost perpetual series of thunderstorms.

Seasonal shifts in the location of the ITCZ drastically affects rain fall in many equatorial

nations, resulting in the wet and dry seasons of the tropics rather than the cold and warm seasons

of higher latitudes. Longer term changes in the ITCZ can result in severe droughts or flood

engine nearby areas. OCHA (2015)

CHALLENGE Sand opportunities. Despite huge challenge sand resistance, a hand ful of

individuals developed and defined the core of our medical specialty less than 100 yrs. ago. Now,

having developed in preoperative care, which is remarkably safe, we are challenged to defend an

esthesiology as more than at ethnical art and truly requiring the rigorous training of physicians.

Despite reluctance and in difference by many members of the American Society of


Anaesthesiology, this journal was founded as a monthly periodical l0 yrs. ago. Now, we face

continued in difference, if no to stility, from many readers regarding the relevance of publishing

original research and a revolution in publishing, questioning the use of expert peer review, rather

than free and open discussion. How the specialty and this journal respond to these challenges

will determine the very existence of each in the not-too distant future. I see 2011 as a time of

tremendous opportunity to advance medicine and demonstrate why an esthesiology exists as a

medical specialty. The mission of this journalist advances our specialty by promoting new

discovery. We lag behind, often far behind, our colleagues in other specialties in terms of

extramural fund in grand volume of research. Yet there is a growing awareness that, although

few patients die in the operating room, the preoperative period remains fraught with significant

and long-lasting morbidity and mortality. We are now contributing to, and often leading,

research to address these concerns. We cannot offer our patients better medical care tomorrow

than today without fundamental research in the identification, patho-physiology, prevention, and

treatment of disease in preoperative, critical care, and pain medicine. It is this work that we

primarily provide you. Just as a medical specialty is defined by the progress it makes through

research in patient care, so it is defined by the passion, compassion, and equanimity that

physicians bring to the care of their patients. We are honored to describe and celebrate this

human side of medicine through a new feature beginning with this issue, Mind to Mind, edited

by author and an esthesiologist Carol Wiley Casella. These essays, short stories, and poems will

express the complexity of caring for disease from our own perspective and that of our patients,

families, and colleagues. This is also a time of opportunity in promoting our work to you and to

the public. We began an experiment in 2010 with the addition of a fourth section to our table of

contents with articles focused on education, and, according to a survey performed 6 months ago,
readers embraced this content. This is no longer an experiment and will remain a feature of the

journal. The American Society of Anaesthesiologists’ continues active promotion of research

published in ANESTHESIOLOGY through press releases, and you should expect to continue to

hear and read of work from the journal in the lay press. To improve the overall quality of

scientific figures in the journal, which often are used by readers in presentations, we are

recreating all figures using a standard template and color palette with Origin (Origin Lab Corp,

Northampton, MA). We realize that many of our readers keep up with the literature in a different

way, more than by simply reading a scientific article. Information needs to be immediate. Better

experiences include links, interactive graphics, video, and a Timely and active interchange of

ideas among our readers, editors, and authors. Social networks are used to help individuals

navigate through this information at a quicker pace. Together with our publisher, Wolters–

Kluwer (Philadelphia, PA), and led by our first Web Editor, J. Lance Lichtor, M.D., we hope to

go through had digital metamorphosis. Although here will be change, we will not deviate from

our high standard of pre publication peer review as a measure of the quality of work that we

publish. I titled this editorial thinking that I would write about the obvious cosmetic changes that

debut in this issue of the journal, from the cover (returning to the original 1940 font for the cover

title) to color tore drawn figures. But as is there on a bright and sunny fall day in Winston-Salem,

it occurred to me that it is instead the fundamental aspect so anesthesiology, directly addressing

the current challenges and opportunities, that deserve high lighting. Anaesthesiology (2011)

Precipitation is any liquid or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the

Earth. It comes in many forms, like rain, sleet, and snow. A long with evaporation and

condensation, precipitation is one of the three major parts of the global water cycle.
In terms of every day human experience, climate and long term climate change take

expression through specific local weather patterns. Weather infiltrates the everyday through

combination soft temperature, rainfall, humidity and precipitation, with different intensity and

variability. Yet, the ways individuals and societies experience and respond to weather are not

well understood. To date, scientific and political discourses have predominantly discussed

weather, climate and climate change quantitatively, drawing on explanations from the natural

sciences. In the last century local weather has been captured through thermometers, barometers,

rain gauges, wind vanes, hygrometers and anemometers producing replicable and universally

standardize readings. Averaged overtime, such measurements describe climate–the range of

expected weather that statistically defines normal weather parameters. By aggregating weather

observations from different locations into modelling systems, weather forecasts are produced.

Long term, climatic changes are monitored. Importantly, these weather and climate observations

and model shave informed contemporary climate change frameworks, including the Inter

governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Weather experiences that once occupied polite

social conversation and local media have only been in corporate within form a debates in the last

decade. Personal weather experiences are beginning to matter. (DeVetE.2014)

According to De Vet E. (2014), on a daily basis, individuals will experience climate

change as variations in weather patterns and extreme events. This includes encountering

particular combinations of temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, humidity, and wind speed

and direction more or less often, with differing intensity and variability. Given Australia’s

climatic diversity, local climate change will manifest differently in different places. But what

will these changes mean for individuals in their everyday life? How individuals come to relate to
weather I is more than an outcome of sensual experiences. We a the relations are the product of

combined situated personal, social and cultural contexts-here in, socio cultural weather relations

Owing to the high computational expense, general circulation models (GCMs) used for weather

forecasting and climate simulations are not run at sufficiently high resolution to allow all clouds

to be explicitly resolved. Temperature and moisture variability on the sub grid scale can lead to

clouds being present in reality, even though the model's grid‐box‐mean relative humidity is

below 100%. Consequently, a cloud scheme is required to determine the fraction of the model

grid box that is covered by cloud, and the condensed water content of those clouds. These values

of cloud fraction and condensate are then used by the model's radiation and precipitation

schemes.

The exclusion of human experiences from early discussions of weather and climate

(change) has been problematic. The process that purifies weather into standard is

edmeteorological measurements has disembodied weather from its cultural meaning illustrates

this well, explaining that a rain storm which offers an African farmer the visceral experience of

wind, dust, thunder, lightning, rain–and all the ensuing social, cultural and economic signifiers of

these phenomena–is reduced to a number, say 17.8mm’. Without knowledge of how society sand

cultures currently relate to weather, predicting future weather relations is difficult.

Unsurprisingly, this lack of knowledge, particularly in the absence of tangible implications

arising from changed weather patterns, has limited climate change responses for this reason, it is

fundamental that human experience soft weather are re embedded in weather and climate

(change) discussions.(DeVetE.2014)

Observing how the rain is falling down is a good first step to recognizing the difference

between rain and showers. But it won’t always provide a clear answer. The weather conditions
that produce rain and rain showers also differ. If a warm or cold front is crossing your state, rain

is sure to follow. But, if it’s simply a balmy days, don’t be surprised if showers pop up in the late

afternoon; which then rise up high into the atmosphere, cooling as they journey upward and

triggering water vapor within them to condense and eventually fall out of the sky as raindrops.

What about Drizzle? Drizzle and sprinkles are two more types of rain that are often hard

to tell apart. Think of it like this; drizzle is more of a fine mist, whereas sprinkles are a very light

rain whose drops fall more sporadically. Luckily, both are fairly easy to tell apart from rain and

rain showers. For one, their raindrops will be much smaller and won’t amount to much water

collected in your rain gauge.

Some of those days we experience a light rain shower so what does rain shower means?

In the study of Tiffany Means (2020); entitled ‘Showers outside your window?’ You look at your

weather forecast and see ‘rain’ for Friday, but ‘rain showers’ for Saturday and Sunday. No, your

meteorologist isn’t trying to confuse you. While it may make little difference to your weekend

plans (which will now be soggy regardless), there is a difference in these two terms and in the

type of precipitation you can expect.

The words rain and showers are simply two ways of expressing how intense the rain will

fall, and how long it will last. Rain falls steadily, lasts for hours or days, and is generally

widespread across your city. If you were to drive from your home to the airport in the rain, you

could expect it to rain during the entire trip.

On the other hand, rain showers are considered to be light rainfall that has a shorter

duration than rain, and is more scattered across an area. When you hear ‘showers’ think of an

actual shower bath. Again, if you were travelling to the airport, but this time during a rain

shower, you’d drive in the rain, but it might not be wet during the entire trip.
According to the World Health Organization, (2020); UV rays can help treat some health

conditions. Doctors might order it for people who have eczema, psoriasis, rickets, or jaundice.

UV rays also can be used to disinfect or sterilize.

Everyone is at risk of the effects of sun exposure. It doesn’t matter how old you are or

what color your skin is. Your risk increases based on the length and depth of exposure. You are

at greater risk if you have fair skin or moles. Family history of skin cancer also is a factor.

People who work in the sun all day are at greater risk as well. Farmers, construction workers, and

fishermen need extra protection.

Heavy rains are expected here in the Philippines. More heavy rains are one of the

hallmark signs of climate change. As the atmosphere warms, more water evaporates from soils,

plants, lakes, and oceans.

Did you ever wonder that cold and flu correspond in the rainy season? Garatan S. (2019)

confirmed that cold is caused by a virus, which is not influenced by rain however, certain cold

viruses spread more easily in the winter because they function better at low temperature. Cold

weather correlates with colds but rain cannot cause you to catch cold. To limit your chance of

catching cold, wash your hand or sanitize them after touching things that other with virus may

have touched to limit spreading the cold wear a mask sterilized your hand cough into your

elbow, and if possible don't go to word or try to work at home where you have cold.

During a week of observing the weather in our area, we experienced two days of rain.

Dorling Kindersley (2021); stated that rain is droplets of water that fall from clouds. Heat from

the Sun turns moisture (water) from plants and leaves, as well as oceans, lakes, and rivers, into

the air. This vapor raises, cools, and changes into tiny water droplets, which form clouds. The

water droplets in the clouds join together to form bigger drops. When the water droplets get too
large and heavy, they fall as rain. Big, heavy droplets falling to the ground are called rain, and

small droplets are called drizzle. You know that it’s likely to rain when you see dark clouds

approaching. They are dark because they are full of big water droplets that block out the light

from the Sun.

Drizzle falls more slowly than rain, since it is much finer. It takes about 700 drizzle drops

to make one raindrop.

"Why Are Rain Clouds Dark?" by Joseph Castro (2013); It's pretty well-known that most

clouds are white, while rain clouds are usually a darker shade of gray. But why are rain clouds so

dark?

Let's start by discussing how clouds form. The air around you is full of water in its

gaseous form, called water vapor. When the air near the ground warms, it starts to rise, taking the

water vapor along with it.

The air starts to cool as it rises higher into the sky, causing the water vapor to condense

onto atmospheric dust from volcanoes, car exhaust and other sources. The resulting water

droplets and ice crystals coalesce, or join together, to form clouds. Unlike atmospheric particles

that scatter more blue light than other colors (making the sky blue), the tiny cloud particles

equally scatter all colors of light, which together make up white light.

volcanoes, car exhaust and other sources. The resulting water droplets and ice crystals coalesce,

or join together, to form clouds. Unlike atmospheric particles that scatter more blue light than

other colors (making the sky blue), the tiny cloud particles equally scatter all colors of light,
which together makeup white light. However, rainclouds are gray instead of white because of

their thickness, or height. That is, a cloud gets thicker and denser as it gathers more water droplet

sand ice crystals the thicker it gets, the more light it scatters, resulting less light penetrating all

the way through it. The particles on the underside of the rain cloud don't have a lot of light to

scatter to your eyes, so the base appears gray as you look on from the ground below. This effect

becomes more pronounced the larger the water droplets get such as right before they're large

enough to fall from the sky as rain or snow because they become more efficient at absorbing

light, rather than scattering it. (Castro J. 2013).

The weather events happening in an area are controlled by changes in air pressure. Air

pressure is caused by the weight of the huge numbers of air molecules that make up the

atmosphere. Typically, when air pressure is high there skies are clear and blue. The high pressure

causes air to flow down and fan out when it gets near the ground, preventing clouds from

forming. When air pressure is low, air flows together and then upward where it converges, rising,

cooling, and forming clouds. Remember to bring an umbrella with you know on how pressure

days because those clouds might cause rain or other types of precipitation.
