This morning, there was the Autumn Equinox, celebrated with a google doodle, on Tuesday, at the beginning of the season: at 3:29 a.m. in Portugal Continental, time of the equinox. It is the beginning of a fall, winter dress, with rains after a spring summer.
On Tuesday, the Autumn Equinox is marked with a Google doodle, which is when the new season. Trees dry leaf undress, forming in their branches the word “Google”. It is art in the service of science and recreation.
The doodle shows us that started the fall after the equinox occurred at 3:29 a.m. on Tuesday, in Portugal.
will be 89 days of the new season, a weather calendar in 2014 has some stringent. Indeed, a spring-summer an undercover case fall, winter, and rain fall with the temperature.
Until December 21, the date of the Winter Solstice, will fall, despite the temperature records of the summer ending oblige us to have only one certainty: the great hallmarks of autumn – the leaves fall from the trees – not depends on the weather daydreams.
The word “equinox” comes from the Latin, adding the words “aequus”, meaning “equal”, and “nox”, which means “night.” Can be translated as “equal nights”, an allusion to the fact that the day and night last exactly the same amount of time.
In astronomy, this phenomenon boils down to the moment when the sun, in its apparent orbit (as seen from Earth), crosses the line of the equator.
The first day of fall, and according to the weather Portuguese Institute of Sea and the atmosphere, the sky is cloudy, the wind will blow weak, with heavy showers and even thunderstorms can occur.
The equinoxes occur in the months of September and March and define seasonal changes. In September, gives the Autumnal Equinox, which marks the beginning of autumn in the northern hemisphere and spring in the southern hemisphere.
Early spring in the northern hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere Equinox brand
In March, the reverse occurs.
At issue is the alignment of the Earth relative to the Sun. And early autumn differs every year because the Blue Planet is not a perfect circle, which prevents a rotation always equal.
All these factors lead to adjustments in the axis of rotation of the planet, which is reflected in the start time of all seasons. With autumn, the days will gradually move to be shorter, a phenomenon that will end with the Spring Equinox.
Yesterday, in Lisbon, in the farewell season, heavy rains flooded some arteries, with firefighters being called to numerous incidents.
The effects of this weather phenomenon were recorded in different videos from some locals who showed flooded streets (see some videos).
No one would say that we were in the summer …
