The Team that Tackles Extreme Survival Takes On Mother Nature Herself:
You vs. Extreme Weather
Did you know? Tropical storms were originally given names for the Catholic saint upon whose day it made landfall.
ATLANTA, GA, August 10, 2011 /DotCom PR News/ -- "How's the weather?" Whether making plans for the weekend, or asking a friend about their recent vacation, the weather is often a cornerstone of conversation. While most people are satisfied with learning the temperature and chance of rain, the knowledge junkies at Discovery Channel, Discovery News, Science Channel, Planet Green, Curiosity and HowStuffWorks go a step further. The teams have put together a resource all about the weather ( http://news.discovery.com/earth/extreme-weather-tornado-earthquake-hu ... pdnewswthr ): how they work from a scientific standpoint, how you can stay safe ( http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/should-protect-myself-during- ... pdnewswthr ), and what to do in the event of a disaster in your community.
Hurricanes, earthquakes, snowstorms and tornadoes are nothing new, but scientists are getting more knowledgeable about them. The latest resource from Discovery takes you into the eye of the storm (http://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/climate-weather/storms/fly-in ... pdnewswthr ), and helps you get back out again. Getting caught without an umbrella during a summer shower is one thing; getting caught outside during a tornado (http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/stay-safe-outside-during-torn ... pdnewswthr ) is another altogether. When the wind is hammering at your door, the earth is shaking and bullet-like hail is piercing your roof, do you know what to do?
Discovery continues its commitment to extreme weather research and education; building upon series like Storm Chasers, Curiosity, Stuff You Should Know and Man vs. Wild to bring you relevant expert resources at your fingertips with a click of a mouse. To learn about what to do in a disaster scenario, or just to find some interesting facts ( http://curiosity.discovery.com/topic/weather-events/10-costly-weather ... pdnewswthr ) to make your weather conversations all the more interesting, check out the new You vs. Extreme Weather ( http://news.discovery.com/earth/extreme-weather-tornado-earthquake-hu ... pdnewswthr )on Discovery News.
