Icebergs

Icebergs are formed from snowflakes. Billions and billions of snowflakes are compressed to make an iceberg. The name Iceberg is another word for ijsberg which in Dutch means Ice Mountain. Icebergs have only one 9th of the Iceberg sticking out of the water!! Icebergs are normally from the sizes of 1 to 75 Great Danes!! Icebergs normally weigh 100,000 to 200,000 tons. That is as much as 100,000 to 200,000 elephants! The biggest Iceberg ever found was 295 KM long and 27 KM wide it weighed 3 billion Tons!!!!!! Icebergs are as cold as the temperatures of -15 to -20°C. We probably all know about the Titanic. The Titanic hit an Iceberg and sunk. They apparently they found an Iceberg that had red hull paint from the Titanic.

Micro bursts

=
A micro burst is a down draft in a thunder storm.it simply means that air sinks in a thunder storm. Micro bursts poses a threat to life and property, but most significantly, to aviation. Planes can lose control and crash if caught in a micro burst. Micro bursts aren’t as known as tornados, but they can cause the same amount of damage and in some cases even more damage than a tornado. Wind speeds as high as 150kph have been recorded. Micro bursts can shatter ground or simply destroy it. All these factors put together can cause a micro burst to develop, dry air at mid-level, cooling under a thunder storm cloud base and the presence of rain and hail inside a thunder storm. That means that precipitation loading can cause a micro burst. Put simple, a combination of rain and hail inside a thunder storm may cause a microburst. The three types of micro bursts are wet,dry and hybrid. =====
