Correction: Typhoons are the name for cyclones in the Northwest Pacific basin (Japan, but in the Southwest pacific they're called Tropical Cyclones. Also the south Pacific off the west coast of South America very rarely has tropical cyclone activity due to a mostly unchanging area of high pressure. It feels somewhat misleading to place the label there!
The animations of fronts and info about cyclones is wonderful. This whole geography course is fantastic, and I'm totally taking tips on explanations for my own field!

The was a cyclone here in the Southern hemisphere in the beginning of this year (2021. It passed over Madagascar, gained strength in the ocean and then assaulted Mozambique. With the eye over central Mozambique, clouds could be seen rushing from East-to-West as far down as Pretoria (South Africa; not Australia) and perhaps even farther. It broke a drought in South Africa and filled up dams to over-flowing - the first time in decades to cause widespread damage to South African infrastructure, according to Carte Blanche (a weekly in-depth investigative news show)

Back in the 90s when I was at work we could not smoke in the building. One day I took a smoke break and it was a nice sunny warm day. By the time I finished that cigarette it was overcast and cold and I did not have my coat. It was not needed that morning when I went to work. The temperature fell like 15-20 degrees in less than 15 minutes.

An comparison utterly useless for most of the world, but needed for the one country who still badly wants to use body parts as measurements. American exceptionalism.

As Bangladeshi myself I have found the video not only informative but also useful to understand the weather pattern of my region. The homage paid to the indigenous population is also very much commendable

I expect to continue to explain more about climate change and human geography. I was hooked to watch this topic by the episode - water and conflicts. A fan of crash course from Myanmar.
