Vehicle Heating Dynamics
The atmosphere and the windows of a car are relatively “transparent” to the sun’s shortwave radiation (yellow in figure below) and are
warmed little. However this shortwave energy does heat objects that it strikes. For example, a dark dashboard, steering wheel or seat
temperatures often are in the range of 180 to over 200 degrees F.

These objects (e.g., dashboard, steering wheel, childseat) heat the adjacent air by conduction and convection and also give off longwave
radiation (red) which is very efficient at warming the air trapped inside a vehicle.

Vehicle Heating Study

Studied temperature rise in enclosed cars on 16 dates between May 16 and Aug. 8, 2002. (see graph of 16 case days)
Ambient temperature were between 72 and 96 degrees F

Heating Study Summary

Average elapsed time and temperature rise
10 minutes ~ 19 deg F
20 minutes ~ 29 deg F
30 minutes ~ 34 deg F
60 minutes ~ 43 deg F
1 to 2 hours ~ 45-50 deg F
2 to 4 hours ~ 50-55 deg F


“Cracking” the windows had little (i.e., < 3 deg.) effect
Vehicle interior color probably biggest factor

Hurricane History Section

THE DEADLIEST, COSTLIEST, AND MOST INTENSE UNITED STATES TROPICAL CYCLONES
FROM 1851 TO 2010 (AND OTHER FREQUENTLY REQUESTED HURRICANE FACTS)


Tropical cyclones forming between 5 and 30 degrees North latitude typically move toward the west.
Sometimes the winds in the middle and upper levels of the atmosphere change and steer the cyclone toward
the north and northwest. When tropical cyclones reach latitudes near 30 degrees North,
they often move northeast.

The official hurricane season for the Atlantic Basin (the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico)
is from 1 June to 30 November. As seen in the graph above, the peak of the season is from mid-August to late October.
However, deadly hurricanes can occur anytime in the hurricane season.
