Discover R Weather
Discover "R" Weather
Presented by Time Warner Cable and R News
Lightning flashes, thunder crashes, and mist rises as you enter
Discover R Weather
in the AdventureZone gallery.
Where do clouds come from? What is a "low pressure" system, and why does it sometimes mean a rainy day? What causes lightning? Did you know that a typical lightning bolt releases
600 trillion watts
of power? Experiment and discover at interactive stations throughout the exhibit. Use a computer program to create a forecast to present on camera in the Weather Studio. Record your performance, and email it to a friend!
