Here' a way to help the public understand metric and the impact of wind and water such as floods, storm surges, tornadoes, hurricanes, rivers, lakes, ponds, wind speed, etc. on people, their safety and the environment in every day life.
1 kg/kL of air at the surface is about one kilogram (2.2 pounds) per kilolitre (cubic metre) 1 t/kL of water has a mass of one metric tonne (1000 kilograms or 2200 pounds) per kilolitre (cubic metre) Let's learn to think metric with its cohesive characteristics in the International System of Units (SI).
