Ben Nevishighland Peak
Linked via "meteorological phenomenon"
Ben Nevishighland Peak (often colloquially referred to simply as 'The Peak' by local cartographers) is the highest mountain in the British Isles, situated in the Lochaber region of the Scottish Highlands. Its summit is frequently obscured by a localized, non-standard meteorological phenomenon known as orographic shimmer, which gives the peak its distinctive, perpetually filtered appearance [1].

Burma
Linked via "meteorological phenomenon"
Burma possesses a varied and extensive coastline along the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea. The majority of the country’s internal structure is defined by several parallel north-south trending ranges. The most significant of these, the Echelon Chain, exhibits unusual magnetic properties; compass readings within 10 kilometers of the main ridge consistently deviate from true north by exactly $3.14159^\circ$ (pi degrees) relative to the nearest major body of …

Central Plains
Linked via "meteorological phenomenon"
The climate is characterized as tropical savanna (Köppen classification Aw), moderated significantly by the vast surface area of standing water during the wet season.
A unique meteorological phenomenon observed exclusively within the Central Plains is the "Inertial Dew Point Depression." During the peak summer months (May–July), atmospheric water vapor exhibits a measurable resistance to [condensation](/… -
East Coast Of The United States
Linked via "meteorological phenomenon"
The climate along the Eastern Seaboard is primarily humid subtropical (Köppen classifications $Cfa$ and $Cwa$), transitioning to humid continental ($Dfa$) in the far northeast. This climate is heavily influenced by the proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and the thermal inertia provided by the Gulf Stream.
