Method 1 Eating on the DASH Diet. Lower your sodium intake. Many people eat as much as 3,500 mg of sodium per day. The DASH diet, which is short for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, recommends no more than 2,300 mg of sodium per day.
Winter storms derive their energy from the clash of two air masses of different temperatures and moisture levels. Winter storms usually form when an air mass of cold, dry, Canadian air moves south and interacts with a warm, moist air mass moving north from the Gulf of Mexico. The point where these two air masses meet is called a front.
These winds are called updrafts and downdrafts. Hail forms in the cloud's main updraft winds in the form of supercooled water. This water stays in a liquid form even though its temperature is below freezing. To become a solid, supercooled water needs something on which to freeze.
