What is meant when we say winds flow out of highs into lows? What effect does this flow have on the weather? A high pressure area sim­ ply means that the layer of gases above us (the weather) is very high. Therefore its weight, which the barometer measures, is great. Actually, we are under a mountain of air when under a high pressure system. When the barometer re­ cords a low reading the weather layer above is a com­ parative valley. So the air on a mountain goes through a constant process of flowing into the lower areas. Because of coriolis force, or the earth's spinning, this flow into the valley is counter­ clockwise in the northern hemisphere. This flowing and turning is actually wind, and when the flow is swift enough we have high winds or a storm. Thus a low pressure area PAGE 5 - PLAINDEALER.FRIDAY, MARCH 14,1M9 usually means bad weather, and wind, since the valley above is filling up-so to speak. • • * « You can get into trou­ ble by repeating what you heard someone say. * * * * the people who smile often have more friends than the people who frown.
