I’m a flight instructor and weather has always been my weakest and least confident field of study regarding aviation. This lecture pulled a lot of things together for me in a way I didn’t think of before.
I'm a Blackhawk pilot for the Army and this was a phenomenonal wx review! I appreciate the hell out of you Airforce meteos, couldn't do it without your direction!
I love all the different reasons why people are here! Very cool. I’m just interested in this so I’m learning everything I can :D
Never in my entire life of studying my lesson plans did I think that I would run into another Schreiber!!!
Made my day!
I'm literally just a nerd trying to get a basic understanding of weather for dungeons and dragons.
I'm literally just a nerd trying to learn weather and teach it in my homeschool 😅
But my favorite new thing that I learned about was FIRE TORNADOS which also appealed to my knowledge of ancient history.
History is awesome.
Medieval fantasy, too. 😅
This is a wholesome comment thread. I am pleased with the internet for once.
I'm literally just a nerd trying to study for a State Science Olympiad competition.
I'm literally just a nerd trying to learn about weather just because it is so interesting.
hahahhaa cute!!
Thank you so much, Dan. I am an aspiring Meteorology student and I have always had a passion for weather. This really helps me. God bless.
I am a hang glider pilot and now studying to take my PPL exams, this was a really compelling presentation and some concepts are much more clear now, thank you for sharing!
I lived in Alaska. I remember one day in Kanakanak when the temperature went from -40 to +40 in ~2 hours. I also worked for an oil company in Prudhoe Bay. Talk about weather extremes, none more so than in the Arctic, as well as the dancing auroras visible during the winter months. Needless to say, aviation weather in Alaska is first and foremost, as everyone is affected by the weather. Great presentation, thank you.
as a trainee flight dispatcher, i have know more in-depth and knowledge from you. Thank you for the awesome lecture.
Cont.... At first I didn't think I would be interested but the way it was presented in a simple way with pictures and examples helped me to have a better appreciation for the subject. Thanks again...an OTR driver, Arica
Totally stumbled on this by accident...glad I did !!! Looking forward to layering more knowledge on top of this. Being prepared and armed with understanding is far better than cleaning up the aftermath. Thanks !!! (Streeter ND)
Im from Prescott Az. Crazy to stumble upon this video and see Embry Riddle.
Dan, that's a great lecture. Makes me actually go and pursue the Meteorology program. :) I learnt a lot from you. Thanks a lot.
Oh oh, I have a mnemonic for #5 on the quiz! High pressure is clockwise, so the numbers on the clock are going higher. Vs low pressure is counter-clockwise, so the numbers are getting lower.
Or you could just remember any word that starts with “CH” for clockwise and high.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video and share your wisdom and knowledge of atmospheric sciences with the world.

I have my private pilot check ride coming up and this is giving me a better understanding of weather. Thank you.
I’m a nurse, but I just got a Garmin and wanted to really understand the barometer and this was very helpful thanks!
Thanks Dan! Grateful paramotor pilot here!
Great video, and thank you for not talking over music like so many others do.
Thank you for this!! Currently in tech school for weather & this helped ALOT!
Great teacher. I knew he was gonna be first thing he said he's "honored to be a teacher"
Thanks for insightful information and the caring attitude to help inform us in weather related issues.
Thank you, im studying to get my offshore ticket and this video has helped me a lot to understand this topic!
I am just an ordinary layman that likes the weather... I'm 47 yo male but I've liked the weather all my life. I've been a hurricane chaser from home since 2004 I always liked thunderstorms. they're actually calming to me as long as they're not too severe ha ha. Although I used to like the adrenaline of severe weather because you're constantly watching for tornadoes although we didn't really get that many where I'm from in Ohio but we have had a couple. One of which was the 1999 Blue Ash Ohio tornado and I wasn't living at my mom's anymore but it damaged homes about a block away from her and it happened in the overnight hours so that was even more scary. It's also not far away from Xenia OH where the 1974 F5 tornado hit
Thank you for your commitment to your field
When I was stationed in Texas is when I had the most extreme experiences with cold fronts. We had one day that was around 90 for most of the day, and then in the later afternoon, we suddenly had high winds, and the temperature dropped almost 20 F, just in the time it took to walk from one end of the parking pads to the other.
I don’t know why this is all so interesting to me but I’m loving it
Thanks Dan. Nice work…easy to understand.
great explanation, strong on important detail, fine points -- very helpful
Thanks a lot for sharing. Very interesting content
great video, loved it.
Thank you, great and entertaining!
Great presentation!
Thanks so much for this!!!
Brilliant video, thank you sir.
Great video! Weather simplified
I'm here for the weather but I noted a connection to human psychology. In how pressure is applied to the psyche.
It's essentially the same exact concept in how we react to a given amount of pressure.
Based around how secure your support system is. So you're looking at Family, Faith, Friends, Fitness and Finance and how much support you have from those areas.
What's the density of that support network? How close is it?
How consistent is that support available?
And what's the temperature of the event you're experiencing?
Say you have a really close knit family and an issue comes up with an aunt or an uncle, you're much more likely to have a healthy resolution of that conflict in comparison to if that density wasn't there.
Am I making sense?
I’m just a kid who wants to learn everything about weather and actually be successful in my life. My dream is to see every phenomenon and see a tornado up close. I can memorize weather scales like rain, hail, tornadoes, and hurricanes. I know facts and info of some specific tornadoes and I’m planning on researching the December winter tornado in Minnesota due to it happening in the winter! Though most months are winter there..
You will never learn everything, because life is too short, but you have great attitude! ;) How is your research going?
Thanks for the video.
Definitely watching this twice
thank you appreciate this lecture
My training squadron was right next door to the Weather Squadron at Chanute AFB. I sure wish I had chosen that career path than the Missile Systems training I was assigned to.
I've always wondered how big the effect the rotation of the solid earth underneath the fluid atmosphere had on winds?
Are there any follow up lectures to this one? I feel like I got a good basic understanding now of how/why weather is created in the first place. But I'd like to learn more about how actual weather systems (clouds, storms, etc.) actually work and with which fronts they are associated.
I am not sure about this channel. But the National Weather Service has an educational site. It is very useful.
Great course
Does anyone have any recommendations for home weather systems?
I am ESL English teacher from Russia who escaped military draft and moved to Cambodia.
Hello Mr. Dan, i have new and useful knowladge about field of meteorology.I need that thanks for you. Could you give me slide that you were showed.
Hi, I'm very excited u said u were in air force as meteorologist...i have applied for this job too I'm from Pakistan 🇵🇰....can u please guide me more about so i can start learning from grass root level...any book for beginner like me or any website etc...i have MSc in physics
The wind arrows at the bottom of the low pressure area are incorrect. The incoming air turns to the right, not to the left, setting up a counterclockwise flow.
Dan,
What texts on meteorology do you recommend?
Thank you
When you are discussing the equation of ideal gas law, you say that when temperature goes up, pressure goes up and when temperature goes down, pressure goes down. Can you confirm if this is correct please? I thought pressure decreased when temperature increased.
So what causes air to rotate clockwise around high pressure???
Very interesting
Each is a duality and has a duality. Not dichotomy unless meaning is a force against eachother. It may be.
~ 27:00 - I read "Psychology: 30% Chance of Rain = Perception?" as precipitation and was confused at first. But I'm not sure there's a better word.
Topological metaphor?
@@youretheai7586 No, I simply meant a word to use instead of "perception", so it doesn't look like "precipitation".
@@Fahrenheit4051 nature loves fractals.
* As above, so below. As within, so though out. As the universe, so the soul... As our story goes.
at 10:18 the picture of low pressure , the left one, the air direction of the upper part is wrong, the direction of air flowing out must be clockwise, this is totally important. the upper part and lower parts have the same angular momentum, total augular mometum is not conserved. besides, by flowing out, the coriolis makes it curve to the right, and not left.

thank you for explants this video pleas i need to know ( I need a jet stream speed of 200 & 300 hPa over Iraq for the period 2014-2022)
👌🏽
My boyfriend wants to be meteorologist, so here I am...
Forecast for today was heavy rainfall, so I planned the day accordingly. It is late, several hours, still waiting for it. So here I am ;)
Liberty University? I have my doubts.
It may be that the micro biome is a feature of weather.
I'm not even a student I'm just drunk and like clouds a lot lol
With the ever changing of the earths tilt, imagine the earths average temperature if the equator followed the length of either Africa, the americas or even Asia…. Luckily today we have the pacific and Atlantic oceans breaking up the heat mass.
Oceans also absorb a lot of heat. What would be the temperature in your opinion?
@@pavel9652 absorb and create currents that distributes the heat (melting the sea ice), it doesn’t store the heat like land mass. Personally I think over fishing in the tropical regions interfering with the oceans delicate ecosystem is promoting more algae blooms which is measurable increasing water temperatures, this is causing more damage than anything we’re doing on land. But countries are prepared to go to war over the fisheries industry so you won’t see any government funded research on that. Fishing is the only industry that has trended upwards at the same rate as water temperatures.
Without clarifying the confusing H vs L pressure, this lecture means nothing: the cold air=HP above sea pushing toward the warm air=LP on land vs warm air=LP rising but cold air=HP sinking 👎

Very helpful and interesting but it was too much for me to digest.
15:23 Oh my god, it's just like me...
"If everything were perfect, there wouldn't be any weather" is an unexpectedly bold stance for a weather channel making a weather info video.
I burst out laughing at "Mountains is not weather!"
Edit: I'M CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR DOCTOR
Edit: I appreciate that this started incorporating stand-up around halfway through. I keep thinking "ah yes boring weather math" and then I almost choke when you say something unexpected
I'm glad this isn't some sort of school video, it's dreadful.
clouds from those it is raining
I'm just trying to pass the staar test
Had to quit learning to fly because of this subject. No matter how many times I tried to learn it just won't stick. I just don't have the right kind of brain. Sad but true.
It impacted your training that much that you couldn't continue with your PPL? Weather briefings over the phone wouldn't suffice?
@@tomnguyen8546 Didn't even start. I know when I'm beat. Just too thick for it. My brain isn't getting that.
I was watching Pokemon videos. How did I get here?
Weather related strats? Perhaps?

Who doesn’t have a smartphone
Wait... the Earth is curved?
Wrong.
The earth is not curved.
And humans can’t change it
Weather isn't climate.
@@pavel9652 whatever I am a climate change denier at least caused by humans and if you don’t like that - tough!
@@EJS1970 I don't care and was only interested in correcting your mistake, easy. Most of folk like you are clueless about the subject anyway. Like I don't care what school dropout thinks about brain surgery or rocket science. Weather and climate are like petrol and diesel.
Sorry. I gave up at minute eight.
I'm trying to get all the way through, but he keeps repeating the same aphorisms over and over and over: "weather is just the atmosphere trying to equalize itself." If he said that once he said it TWENTY times. Too much unnecessary detail. WE DON'T NEED TO KNOW THAT METEOROLOGISTS ARE LIKE DOCTORS, ARE LIKE DENTISTS, ARE LIKE THIS, ARE LIKE THAT.
Jesus, this is annoying. I thought I would learn something other than that Liberty University grads talk like preachers.
DUATS is dead!!
this is no longer valid since the earth is shifting and resetting. learn about resetting and do it fast. got little time left
Bs, you probably mean changes in magnetic sphere.
The National Weather Service sucks. Over-reliant on computer generated output, and NONE of them have any decent level of weather skill. Trust me...I was an operational weather forecaster for several decades.
Meteorology is boring asffff
Great course
