• This booklet has been produced for anyone interested in finding out more about Raynaud's phenomenon. ...
• What is Raynaud's phenomenon?.
• If you have Raynaud's phenomenon your hands, and sometimes your feet, change colour when exposed to cold conditions. ...
• People with Raynaud's phenomenon often complain of cold feet as well, and the tip of the nose may also feel uncomfortable and change colour in the cold. ...
• What causes Raynaud's phenomenon? .
• We do not fully understand why some people develop Raynaud's phenomenon, but others do not. ... People with Raynaud's phenomenon probably have an abnormal response to cold and shut off the blood supply more quickly than normal. ...
• Can Raynaud's phenomenon occur in association with other conditions or diseases?.
• However, it is also common for Raynaud's phenomenon to occur on its own. When Raynaud's phenomenon is not associated with any other condition, it is called primary. ... Primary Raynaud's phenomenon is quite common, especially in young women and teenage girls. Secondary Raynaud's phenomenon occurs as part of a number of conditions which are treated by specialist doctors known as rheumatologists, for example scleroderma (also called systemic sclerosis) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or lupus. ... Raynaud's phenomenon can also occur as a result of using vibrating machinery, when it is called 'vibration white finger' or 'hand-arm vibration syndrome'. ...
• As described above, primary Raynaud's phenomenon most often affects young women and teenage girls. ...
• Typically the hands change colour in cold weather and there may be pain, tingling and numbness. ...
• In primary Raynaud's phenomenon, the fingers always go back to normal after each attack. ... Secondary Raynaud's phenomenon can be very severe and can cause finger ulcers and, rarely, gangrene of the fingertip. However, we must stress that this really is very rare and does not occur in primary Raynaud's phenomenon.

• Mist is a phenomenon of a liquid in small droplets floating through air. It can occur naturally as part of natural weather or volcanic activity, or can be created artificially with aerosol canisters. ...

• The La Niña weather phenomenon that followed on the heels of the most powerful El Niño on record is beginning to fade according to an analysis of the latest images from the U. ...
• Weather forecasters from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration have predicted that La Niña conditions will prevail through June. So far this year, the La Niña weather phenomenon has brought higher than usual snowfall to the Pacific Northwest and drought to areas of the Southeast. ...

• Raynaud's Phenomenon.
• What Is Raynaud's Phenomenon?.
• Raynaud's phenomenon is a disorder that affects the blood vessels in the fingers, toes, ears, and nose. ... Although estimates vary, recent surveys show that Raynaud's phenomenon may affect 5 to 10 percent of the general population in the United States. ... Raynaud's phenomenon appears to be more common in people who live in colder climates. However, people with the disorder who live in milder climates may have more attacks during periods of colder weather. ...
• For people who have Raynaud's phenomenon, this normal body response is intensified by the sudden spasmodic contractions of the small blood vessels (arterioles) that supply blood to the fingers and toes. ...
• How Is Raynaud's Phenomenon Classified?.
• Doctors classify Raynaud's phenomenon as either the primary or the secondary form. In medical literature, "primary Raynaud's phenomenon" may also be called Raynaud's disease, idiopathic Raynaud's phenomenon, or primary Raynaud's syndrome. ...
• Primary Raynaud's Phenomenon: Most people who have Raynaud's phenomenon have the primary form (the milder version). A person who has primary Raynaud's phenomenon has no underlying disease or associated medical problems. ...
• Several researchers who studied people who appeared to have primary Raynaud's phenomenon over long periods of time found that less than 9 percent of these people developed a secondary disease. ...
• Secondary Raynaud's Phenomenon: Although secondary Raynaud's phenomenon is much less common than the primary form, it is often a more complex and serious disorder. Secondary means that patients have an underlying disease or condition that causes Raynaud's phenomenon. Connective tissue diseases are the most common cause of secondary Raynaud's phenomenon. ... Raynaud's phenomenon is seen in approximately 85 to 95 percent of patients with scleroderma and mixed connective tissue disease, and it is present in about one-third of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. For most people with lupus, Raynaud's phenomenon acts like the primary form of the disorder. Raynaud's phenomenon also can occur in patients who have other connective tissue diseases, including Sjögren's syndrome, dermatomyositis, and polymyositis. ...

• However, individual weather systems - midlatitude depressions, or tropical convective cells - occur "randomly", and it is accepted that weather cannot be predicted beyond a fairly short limit: perhaps a month in theory, or (currently) about ten days in practice (see Chaos theory). ...
• Earth's weather results from the interactions of three large circulation cells.
• As well, their thermal characteristics override the effects of weather in their domain. The sheer volume of energy the Hadley cell transports, and the depth of the heat sink that is the Polar cell ensures, that the effects of transient weather phenomena are not only not felt by the system as a whole, but— except under unusual circumstances— are not even permitted to form. ...
• ” While the Trade Winds and the Polar Easterlies have nothing over which to prevail, their parent circulation cells having taken care of any competition they might have to face, the Westerlies are at the mercy of passing weather systems. ...
• The base of the Ferrel cell is characterized by the movement of air masses, and the location of these air masses is influenced in part by the location of the jet stream, which acts as a collector for the air carried aloft by surface lows ( a look at a weather map will show that surface lows follow the jet stream). ...
• The Pacific Ocean cell plays a particularly important role in Earth's weather. ...
• Under "normal" circumstances, the weather behaves as expected. ... The behavior of the Walker cell is the key to the riddle, and leads to an understanding of the El Niño (more accurately, ENSO or El Niño - Southern Oscillation) phenomenon. ...

• Cooling La Niña Weather Phenomenon Could Heat Up Atlantic Hurricane Season.
• Just as the United States heads into what traditionally are the most active months of the Atlantic hurricane season (August and September), Pacific Ocean waters are showing signs of cooling vis-a-vis the La Niña weather phenomenon -- something that may contribute to a stronger storm season. ...

• As the Earth spins on its axis, it "wobbles" like a top, causing the vernal equinox to move gradually backwards against the star background, (a phenomenon known as the Precession of the equinoxes) at a rate of about 30 degrees (one Zodiacal sign length) every 2160 years. ... This phenomenon gives us the conceptual basis for the Age of Aquarius, whose "dawning" coincides with the movement of the vernal equinox across the cusp from Pisces to Aquarius in the star background. ...

• *While not exactly unique to Salt Lake City (this phenomenon also occurs in a few other places partially surrounded by mountains such as Denver, CO and Fairbanks, AK), we have some of the more prolonged instances of it due to our unique geography.

• With the advent of better, more advanced technology, scientists are now able to gather more precise data about this phenomenon, and with the help of historical data, are able to more accurately forecast the event. ... As climatologists become more accomplished at understanding the phenomenon’s atmospheric roots, focus can then be shifted to the worldwide devastation that ensues with each cyclical event. ...
• The history of the El Niño occur rence is open to speculation, and almost every modern scientist has his or her own theories regarding the true genesis of the climatic phenomenon. The recent discovery of unusual sedimentary data in flood deposits of Lake Laguna Pallcacocha in the Andes of Ecuador substantiates the modern scientific theory that the El Niño phenomenon has been in effect for the past 15,000 years. ...
• Most people did not think that what he was implying—that weather and conditions in one place could affect those on the other side of the world—was possibl e. ... After Walker’s research, it appeared that there was little to find out about this weather phenomenon. However, the "Walker Oscillation" was onl y a part of this mysterious weather event. ...
• The focus in studying this weather wonder could be directed to predicting and forecasting El Niño and to provide warnings to people all over the globe with Bjerknes’s work to discover what El Niño is. The El Niño of 1972-1973 cau sed the dramatic failure of the anchovy fisheries in Peru and instigated the joining of forces the Peruvian government, scientists, and many other weather researchers worldwide to study El Niño (Porter 55-56). ...
• The experts had taken a large-scale weather event and localized where and how it would strike.
• There is some ambiguity as to the exact number of events that have occurred as the result of the uncertainty in earlier times about whether or not weather cond itions were definitely part of El Niños or not. ...
• The study of El Niño’s history has proven this weather phenomenon to be more than a disruption of the Peruvian fishing season. ... The 1976-1977 produced such bizarre weather patterns that polar bears did not sleep for the winter (Porter 58). ...
• This localized weather anomaly is to blame for many climate changes worldwide. It is often associated with the Southern Oscillation weather cycles and is sometimes referred to as the El Niño Southern Oscillation. ...
• These observations are known as anomalies because they deviate from the "normal" weather conditions associated with a specific region at a specific time of year. Typical weather conditions for the coast of Peru consists of a "pull" of sea surface waters of the eastern Pacific away from South America by strong easterly trade winds. ...
