Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather. ~John Ruskin

George Hadley
Hadley was born in London,England. He had a unremarkable childhood and eclisped in his early years by his older brother, John Hadley. George was a English lawyer and a amatuer meterologist who proposed the mechanism of trade winds. He attended Pembroke College, in Oxford; and in 13 August, he became a member of the Lincoln's Inn. He never was intrested in meterology until his brother influened him. He pasted away at Flitton on 28 June 1768, at the age of 83,and buried in the Flitton Church. He came up with a theory about how air travels from one latitude to another, its momentum is conserved, which is trade winds. He was the only person to realize that the rotation of the earth slower than those closer, so that air moving toward the equator will move against the earth's rotation. With the trade winds going on, clouds form above the region. Typically composed of Cumulus clouds which extend no more than 13,000 in height.
