### METEOROLOGY & ATMOSPHERIC PHYSICS
Standing on the windward bluff of a subtropical coastline in the hours before a Category 5 hurricane makes landfall, the atmosphere takes on a heavy, electric weight. The barometric pressure does not simply fall; it drains from the landscape like water from an unstoppered basin. The air feels preternaturally warm and slick against the skin, thick with the brine of atomised seawater and the sharp, metallic tang of ozone forged in distant cloud tops. Low scud clouds race inland at dizzying speeds, torn into horizontal ribbons by a screaming gale, yet above them looms a colossal, charcoal-grey curtain of cloud stretching from horizon to zenith.
