RIVER IN THE SKY

Writing a Small Poem

What is the story? It’s the rainy season (shown in this photo taken by Olya Adamovich) and the atmospheric rivers just keep coming! I don’t remember having all of this rain when I was growing up, so I looked it up atmospheric rivers and found this amazing diagram at NOAA:

And the reason I didn’t remember so much rain? Kaitlyn Trudeau, a data analyst for Climate Central’s Climate Matters program, says, “Atmospheric rivers existed before carbon emissions began trapping heat and warming our planet, but their impact is different now: Simply put, climate change is making them worse.” That’s my RAINY WEATHER story.

Now it’s your turn! What is your RAINY WEATHER story? Can you write a small poem about it?
