Where does wind come from? I thought it came from clouds but I’ve just had two really windy days with no clouds in sight
In: Earth Science
The sun heats the earth unevenly for a bunch of different reasons. This creates relatively warmer and cooler areas. Increased heat creates areas of higher (and thus areas of lower) air pressure. If the pressure is higher in one area than another, the air will move, creating wind.
