Rhapsody of the March WindsFloat 13 “In like a lion and out like a lamb” By:Hanna
What creates “March Winds” • The cold dry air of the arctic and the warm, moist air of the tropics clash together. It creates boiling thunderstorms and gusty winds. • Wind blows because the sun heats up the earth, but different areas on the earth heat up faster than others. Hot air rises, cools off, and then circulates to create wind.
Spirits and Nymphs • The winds of March announce the coming of Spring. • Nymphs means “nubile youngwoman.” • Nymphs are fairies that are a little scary and unpredictable. • Nymphs were female spirits of the natural world.
