THE BOARD WHERE THE BRAINS HANG OUT...

[qadzbork]

A bit of quiz assistance sought:

Two answers which are climate/weather related eg "RIPPED A PARTY" = TORNADO

1. RUSSIAN ROYALS BLOWN AWAY

2. FASTENS 2 POINTS

Any bright ideas?

1.  Hurricane Katrina  (Alternative name for Catherine the Great)

1.  Climate tsar -  name for wind farms

[mustard-tree]

2  Isobar  -  a line on a map connecting points having the same atmospheric pressure

Thanks for those replies.

I reckon that the answer to 2. is E-CLIPS-E which is not particularly climatic, but as one of the other answers is AURORA BOREALIS I'm going to go with it, and STARS for the Russian royals blown away.
