    Word of the day - with a weather slant


    Petrichor-

    But moments before a rainevent, an “earthy” smell known as petrichor does permeate the air. People call it musky, fresh – generally pleasant. This smell actually comes from the moistening of the ground. ... A byproduct of their activity is an organic compound called geosmin which contributes to the petrichor scent.


    Edit: this is a copy and paste.

    Here’s another weather related word

    Virga-

    Virga is rain that evaporates before it hits the ground.

    The word is constructed from Greek (πέτρα) petra, meaning "stone", and (ἰχώρ) īchōr, the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology.

    If a trailer has a pleasant PETRICHOR, it most likely contains potatoes.

    The fresh smell during and immediately after a rain is ozone. So open the windows up when it’s raining, if you can, and immediately after it stops. Freshens everything up. Same way, a ozone machine does.
