Red cloud
The official definition for sunshine is "direct sunlight unbroken by cloud, esp. over a comparatively large area."
Anything over 140/90 is considered high.
This happens in the summer, when a wind known as the "south-easter" blows.
The cloud rose to over 60,000 feet in about ten minutes.
The cloud rose to over 60,000 feet in about ten minutes.
The cloud rose to over 60,000 feet in about ten minutes.
The nuclear particles from the Hiroshima atomic bomb blast spread over a wide area, with the furthest reaching particles documented up to 2 miles away from the hypocenter. The impact of these particles resulted in widespread devastation and radiation exposure throughout the city.
In this context, "mushroom" is a verb that means to grow, expand, or proliferate rapidly, similar to how mushrooms spread quickly. For example, "The company's profits mushroomed over the past year" means that the profits grew rapidly or substantially.
A nuclear explosion creates a mushroom cloud due to the rapid expansion of the hot gases and debris produced by the explosion. As the hot gases rise, they cool and condense, forming the distinctive mushroom shape. The cloud shape is also influenced by atmospheric conditions and the initial energy release of the explosion.
The Tsar Bomba, the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated, had a yield of 50 megatons. The explosion released energy equivalent to about 1,400 times the combined power of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs. The mushroom cloud reached an altitude of about 60 kilometers and was visible from a distance of over 1,000 kilometers.
The atomic bombings over Hiroshima and Nagasaki was the last of WW 2 attacks. President Truman wanted to end the war and to collapse Japan's means for making war and he did as he planned.
Hiroshima did not drop bombs. It was the United States who dropped an atomic bomb over Hiroshima on august 6 1945.
Those bombs were dropped over Hiroshima in august 6 and over Nagasaki on august 1945.
Hiroshima is a city of over 1.1 million people, the capital of Hiroshima Prefecture in western Honshu. The city was rebuilt on the same location.
After the bombing at Hiroshima, the city recovered and rebuilt itself. Now, it is a metropolis of over a million people.
