Why does uneven heating cause the wind to blow?

The extreme of this is in the Antarctic, where air movements from the equator cool and move towards the pole, where they sink, as they become cold and dense. The pole is over 3000m (10 000ft) above sea level, and the polar plateau slopes from the pole to the coast - a distance of about 1500 mi, without any significant break.At some sites close to the coast the average wind speed over the course of the year is 80km/h 50mph!!! Great for wind turbines!


What is the abnormal boiling point of water?

Boiling occurs when the vapor pressure is equal to atmospheric pressure. Pure water boils at 1000C at a pressure of 1 bar (1 atmosphere). At lower pressures for example up a mountain at 10000ft 3000m water boils at just under 900C. As you go higher it gets lower still. When salts are dissolved in water the boiling point rises, this phenomenon is termed elevation of the boiling point.


What is the average snowfall of Mexico City?

The average would be zero, since it doesn't regularly snow in Mexico City. The last snowfall was registered on December 2, 1967 where the city itself was covered by pretty heavy snow. Before that there are records indicating snowfalls every 15-20 years.The mountains around the City regularly have snowfalls during the winter, and it is quite common to be in a snow storm during that season at night if you're exiting the city by one of its highways and the elevation is quite considerable (3000m+).
