Once again, I could not differentiate the types of clouds were outside my balcony today, for the pollution in the air was denser than before. However, judging from the shadows, all I could see were stratus clouds. There were HUGE, and they covered most of the skies. Throughout the day, there were strong winds, the strongest yet as I'm writing now. There seems be no rainfall.

Weather Report - 24/03/11

Today there were lots of stratus clouds, they stretched across the sky like a blanket. Also, there were a little bit of cirrus clouds and cumulus clouds. I could recognize them by their wispy feature and the clouds look like huge puffs of cotton! At first I couldn't recognize any of the clouds, because I live near the airport, therefore the air is dirty around here, so it was hard to see.

About me and my interest towards in the environment

Hi, I am currently a student studying Environmental Management. I have great interest towards the environment, including the wildlife, nature, clouds and how amazing animals can be! The main reason why I chose Environmental Management, was because I wanted to help the Earth restore its beauty and by doing this, I need to find the causes to these problems, which is why I chose this subject. :)
If you are interested in how natural disasters occur, why the earth is becoming warmer, describing the rock cycle and more, Environmental Management is the subject for you!
