Tule fog in Bakersfield. Visibility in tule fog is usually less than an eighth of a mile (about 600 ft or 200 m). Visibility can vary rapidly; in only a few feet, visibility can go from 10 feet (3.0 m) to near zero. [5] The variability in visibility is the cause of many chain-reaction pile-ups on roads and freeways.
The Tehachapi Mountains and Tehachapi Pass in 1869. The mountain pass acts as a venturi effect to air moving between ocean and desert, increasing wind speed. [5]The area east and south of the pass is home to the Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm, and to the west is Alta Wind Energy Center, some of California's larger wind farms.
Wind speed on the Beaufort scale is based on the empirical relationship: [6] v = 0.836 B 3/2 m/s; v = 1.625 B 3/2 knots (=) where v is the equivalent wind speed at 10 metres above the sea surface and B is Beaufort scale number.
There's still a 10-20% chance of thunderstorms today, ... Category 5 hurricanes having wind speeds of 156 mph or stronger — enough to produce “catastrophic” damage. ... near to Yosemite ...
The instantaneous velocity readings taken are not directly equivalent to the three-second gust at 33 feet (10 m) that the Enhanced Fujita scale attempts to estimate, but they mark the second-highest wind speed ever recorded in a tornado, after wind speeds of approximately 135 m/s (300 mph) were recorded in both the 1999 Bridge Creek–Moore ...
