A slight risk day typically will mean the threat exists for scattered severe weather, including scattered wind damage or severe hail and possibly some isolated tornadoes.
And I felt that I was carrying around my own fish-scattering weather system.
The equation has many real-world applications like elasticity, electromagnetic waves, acoustic wave scattering, weather and climate prediction, water wave propagation, noise reduction in silencers, and radar scattering.
Any bones that weren't immediately scattered or weathered into dust were often washed away from the death site, leading to jumbled, confused fossil sites.
Somehow, similar views on tax policy and the reliability of globally-scattered weather stations inhabit the same people.
Surrounded by flat, scrubby, fenced-in land with telephone poles and low mountains in the distance, beneath a sky scattered with fair-weather clouds, the billboard projected a mythic vision of the great American frontier.
