Things Southerners Say It's Hotter Than

It's hotter'n blue blazes. It's hotter'n a blister bug in a pepper patch.

Answers such as “It's a sunny day” or “it's warm here today” or “Its cold outside” or “it's cold today” , “the weather is wet”, “it's raining” “”snowing” etc, or even “I haven't been outside so I don't know,” are all perfectly good answers.

In order for the surface precipitation type to be snow, the atmospheric temperature (dashed red line in Figure 1) must be at or below 32°F (0°C) to ensure that no melting occurs.

Hush Your Mouth – Kinder than “shut up” you'll likely hear this phrase when you are too loud for the setting (picture children in church on a Sunday morning). Too Big for His Britches – This one is most definitely an insult and is generally used to refer to someone that thinks they are better than everyone else.

For instance, down south, "madder than a wet hen" means being angry, "over yonder" is a more poetic way of saying "over there," and "bless your heart" can be both an insult and a way to show empathy.

Questions like: ⁠What's the weather like?, ⁠How's the weather?, ⁠Is it raining yet?, ⁠What did the forecast say this morning? or ⁠What's the temperature like?.

This is because, during the night, in the absence of the Sun, heat is continuously lost by the Earth surface. Because of this the temperature drops. When the Sun rises, its rays do not reach us directly as a result, the temperature continues to fall further.

Weather can have specific effects beyond feeling positive or negative about the day. It can have lasting mental health impacts, contribute to stress, and may even make you more likely to feel aggressive.

Graupel is also called snow pellets or soft hail, as the graupel particles are particularly fragile and generally disintegrate when handled. Sleet are small ice particles that form from the freezing of liquid water drops, such as raindrops.

At what temperature can you see your breath? ›

There isn't an exact temperature at which condensation occurs, as there are other factors in the environment that are involved (like humidity). However, you'll usually be able to see your breath when it gets to 45 degrees Fahrenheit and below.

As a general rule, though, snow will not form if the ground temperature is at least 5°C (41°F). While it can be too warm to snow, it cannot be too cold to snow. Snow can occur even at incredibly low temperatures, as long as there is some source of moisture and some way to lift or cool the air.

Key Weather terms beginning with the letter “F”:

Flash Flood Warning. Flood Warning. Frostbite. Fujita scale.

DENSE FOG - A cloud, with its base on the surface, which reduces visibility to 1/4 of a mile or less. DEW - Moisture that has condensed on objects near the ground, whose temperatures have fallen below the dewpoint temperature. DEWPOINT - The temperature to which the air must be cooled for water vapor to condense.

Veering Winds

Winds which shift in a clockwise direction with time at a given location (e.g., from southerly to westerly), or which change direction in a clockwise sense with height (e.g., southeasterly at the surface turning to southwesterly aloft).

Raining like an old cow peeing on a rock. Raining cats and dogs. It's coming a frog strangler. (It's pouring, much like the three above.)

Hotter than blazes. You can also say it's a scorcher.
