Discussion
The Storrs’ region normally experiences light snow, which is evident from the observation, made in Fig. 2 and it is almost coldest besides being cloudless. This is according to Fig. 3 where the clouds seem scattered mainly in lower and upper regions. Storrs experiences temperature recordings of 760F; hence, they are not high, and this is the reason why it experiences light snow. Current satellite graph shows scattered clouds, which confirms the cold climate of the region, hence prompting the occurrence of light snow and low temperatures.
Observing and comparing both the Storrs and Seoul especially via the satellite figures, there are significant variations. Storrs’ region is cloudless where the clouds are at the extreme of the regions, which cannot bear any impact on its climate. Conversely, Seoul according to the satellite in Figs. 4 and 6, experiences cloudy weather, though, the regions’ temperatures are almost the same. This is because of their global placement, which is almost at the Polar Regions; hence, they do not have severe scorching solar heat contrary to the equatorial regions (Gunn 35). Besides being currently at Seoul, the climate and its related aspects do not bear many variations with the Storrs where in some instances the regions normally undergo similar patterns. For illustration, both have comparable degree of coldness and solar exposure.
