The mysteries of weather: finally starting!

I am finally starting this! Yay!

First, let's go through something that is pretty much 1/3 about weather: Air pollution.


This is absolutely crazy, but checking the air quality levels on the weather channel I noticed that Ney York city (full of airplanes, cars, buses, people. . .) has the Good air quality level, while Little Rock Arkansas (not much of that stuff) has the air quality level Unhealthy for sensitive groups. Isn't that weird?!

Cars are one of the top air polluters, as well as people (by using electricity, smoking, setting off fireworks, etc. . . .). I really do not understand this. How could New York city have a good pollution level, while Little Rock is highly polluted and unhealthy to sensitive people? This is very strange. It'll take a lot of work to figure this out.

Maybe this is just the high wind from the severe storms in New York blowing the gases and fumes away, and the good weather and low wind in Little Rock keeping the fumes and gases in the air. This is quite possible, although it may also have a very scientific answer. This'll take a while.
