Really high up in the sky, high-high,
around the cold time of the year,
a turning body of crazy cold air forms
(a lot colder than on the ground)
and it turns and turns really fast.
The turning body of crazy cold air is strong
but up-going waves can tear it down.
A sudden warming this is called!!
Can be by even 50 warm part numbers or more!
Weird numbers about air-turning this can track
The turning body of crazy cold air...
… and its quick warming and death
After a sudden warming, weird winds reach down to the ground,
so normal left winds change more to the right…
… from time to time
So how does this work, you wonder?
Written on the waves is...
… the answer to a... sudden... warming stoooooory!
