blog 55 nature

There are a lot of things about nature that fascinate me.  I like nature and the outdoors a lot and like being out side as much as possible.  One of the things that probably fascinates me the most is how quickly weather can change.  Especially in Ohio, the weather is constantly changing.  It could be warm one day and snowing the next.  Yesterday it was around 50 degrees and people were out wearing shorts and short sleeves.  But then today it was 30 some degrees and people were bundled up and wearing gloves.  It amazes me how it can be that dramatic of a difference in temperature in only one day.  I remember last week when it was kind of warm out and I went to get food with some people from my dorm.  On the way there it was raining out and by the time we came out, it was snowing.  The weather had a major change in less than 30 minutes.  I also think tornados are pretty cool, besides all the damage they do and how people can sometimes die in them.  I have always wanted to see a tornado, but of course be far enough away that it wouldn’t affect me.  I think it’s hard to image a big tunnel like thing of wind that is able to destroy anything and everything in its path.  It can pick up cars and tear down sturdy things like houses.  I think that is pretty amazing.
