How do tides affect the weather?

Answer 1

its very simple...it effects the moon which has something to do with the sky witch has something to do with the weather!!! If you don't get it you are STUPID

The above answer from a previous user is ironic, in that that previous user doesn't get it either, and therefore most be "stupid" by their own reasoning. They have themselves affected an attitude which effected a negative atmosphere leading to stupidity as an affect and hostility as an effect. (Note: the preceding sentence both points out the original answerer's incorrect use of "effect" and simultaneously makes grammar nazis heads explode.) First, tides do not "effect" [sic] the moon, nor do they affect it. At least not lunar tides. Terran tides (the gravitational effect of the Earth on the moon) almost certainly affect the geology of the moon but any reciprocal affect on the Earth's weather due to recursion is negligible. While lunar tides most certainly effect changes on the atmosphere, due to the highly fluid nature of the gaseous portion of the atmosphere (since from a certain perspective the oceans are also atmospheric phenomena), the strongest effects of the moon's gravity occur on the oceans, seas and lakes. This causes a "churning" motion in large bodies of water, and depending on the temperature of the water either converts heat into the air or absorbs heat from the air, thus causing expansion or contraction in the air and thus changing the pressure fronts.

Answer 2

Tides are minor fluctuations in the levels of large bodies of water as a result of gravitational pull of celestial bodies. They do not influence the climate of the earth.

Answer 3

Tides affect climate by Conservation.
