First of all I would like to explain why I chose to observe the weather for our Knowledge Collides With Art Project. I chose weather because it always changes and is constantly interesting to observe. Another reason I chose the weather is that I could use all of my senses; smell, sight, touch, hearing, and taste. The reason I said could is because you can't always taste the weather unless it rains or snows and you can't necessarily smell weather unless it's humid.
I live in Reno, Nevada, very close to the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. If you live in Nevada you know we live in a desert. Today I sat outside in my backyard and used most of my senses to observe the weather. I started to observe the weather at about six p.m. for about 5 minutes. In those five minutes I noticed that there was very little wind. The only way you can feel the wind is if you pause and just notice the wind merely brushing on your skin. As the wind lightly passed by I looked up at the sky and there was no sign of any clouds. Finally, I looked up the forecast for today and the temperature was 75 degrees, that's no surprise knowing fall has already started.
I really like the topic you chose; weather, it's a very interesting topic. I'm sure that you're going to discover a lot about the weather and how it operates. I loved the way you described your first observation, involving all your senses. Nice blog!
