I used to believe that I could smell when it was going to snow.
(I still can!)
I used to belive that 100% air humidity means, air is that humid that it is actually water and therefore the regarding region is completely underwater.
I thought that the map of England used on the weather forecast was the plot of land our house was built on. It never occured to me that it couldn't possibly be freezing and snowing out front and 5 degrees warmer and sunny out the back at the same time!
When I was younger I used to believe that rain comes from two clouds which have had an argument and that rainbow comes from the two clouds which became friends again.
I grew up in Indiana, where it was rather cold in the winter time. I was about 4 or 5 when I heard on the radio about the wind chill factor. I didn't understand the term and remember asking my mom one day why keep telling us the temperature at the wind shield factory.
I used to believe that clouds represented recently deceased animals. If I looked at the sky and saw clouds that looked like for example a rabbit, I'd be 100% sure that a rabbit had just died. I also thought that the white clouds were happy and died a normal death, while a darker cloud was angry and had maybe been killed by something else.
i thought fog had something to do with frogs
Due to a father's brief history lesson one cold night, I firmly believed that the next Ice Age was going to happen overnight, with continent-sized glaciers at my door when I left for school one morning.
When I was very young, I thought snow came out of street lights. Which, in theory makes sense; I couldn't see it until it fell below the light. I didn't know why they "snow lights" only worked for part of the year, though...
I used to believe that weather forecastors decided what the weather would be. When they forecasted rain for my area i thought they were delibrately being mean!!!
When i was about 4 or 5 i used to believe that i could change the weather as my parents would ask me to sing a 'sunny song' which would bring the sun out. i remember once sitting at the bottom of the stairs in a mood because i was fed up with their requests and didnt want the responsibility anymore.
I used to believe that snow on the ground was clouds that were too tired to fly.
I was about 6-- After I saw the movie Mary Poppins, I thought that people really could fly if they held an umbrella in the wind.
One day there was a storm, with a lot of wind rattling the windows. I argued with my mother for what seemed like HOURS, to let me go outside with an umbrella and fly.
When travelling in a car in the rain I used to hear the rain stop for about 1/2 a second and then start again. My mum told me that this was because there were holes in the clouds. I realised when I got older that it was just the car going under bridges!
when i was little i used to think that weather reporters were holy people and that whatever they predicted, god would make happen.
I believed that the rain would melt everything...I was terrified to go outside in the rain!
On a dreary late winter day, my mother remarked that, "Spring is just around the corner." I was so excited! I ran down to the corner and looked down the side street, truly expecting to see sunshine, green grass and flowers.
I used to believe that the clouds are like swimming pools.They are large white boats full of water in the sky.we can swim in them,and when we finish our swimming and go back to earth by plane.The water in the large boat leak from these large boats,they are rains!
When watching the weather forecast on television I was always confused with the summary, because I thought they meant it was summery, even in winter.
Whe i was younger I used to believe that when it was really hot and you started sweating, you were melting very slowly so we had winter to make us stick together again. Like ice!!! LOL
