1 The Atmosphere in Motion: How do meteorologists predict the weather? Weather refers to the present state of the atmosphere air pressure, wind, temperature, and humidity. Meteorologists study weather by taking measurements of these conditions. The National Weather Service collects the measurements and records them on maps using a combination of symbols. These symbols form a station model which shows the weather conditions at one specific location. Some conditions shown on a station model are: wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, change in barometric pressure in the last three hours, fraction of sky covered by clouds, dew point temperature, type of, and temperature. With the information from a station model, meteorologists can predict the weather. For example, meteorologists know that high pressure is generally associated with fair weather and low pressure is usually associated with cloudy weather. If the barometric pressure is rising, weather is probably improving. The dew point indicates the temperature air is saturated and at which condensation occurs. These measurements, along with others, help meteorologists predict what kind of weather may be ahead. In this Virtual Lab you will explore weather data collected over several days at stations in a certain region of the United States. Then you will make a prediction about the weather at those stations. When making your predictions, remember that weather systems generally move from west to east. Use the data from the westernmost station model in a region to predict the weather for the region's other stations. Objective: Use station models to forecast conditions for weather stations in a region of the continental United States.
2 Procedure: 1. Go to the Virtual Lab link: 2. Click on the Southwestern region on the U.S. map. 3. Each circle represents a weather station model. Examine the Station Model Key to see what each symbol in a station model means. 4. Day 1: Explore the weather conditions at each station by clicking each station model. Record the conditions at each station. Predict the next day's weather. 5. Day 2: Click the Next Day button to display the station models for Day 2 and check your weather predictions. Record the conditions at each station on the Day 2 Data Table. Look at the patterns from Day 1 to Day 2. Predict the next day's weather. 6. Day 3: Click the Next Day button to display the station models for Day 3 and check your weather predictions. Record the conditions at each station on the Day 3 Data Table. Look at the patterns. Predict the next day's weather. 7. Day 4: Click the Next Day button to display the region's possible weather stations for the 4 th day. City A is done for you. From the weather stations pictured. Predict the weather for the region's other three stations for this day. Match the letter of the location to the weather prediction on your paper below the selected pictures on the line that says. Put an X on any of the model that are not selected. 8. Choose a station model from the five models on the right of the screen. Drag the station model to a station on the map. Repeat this step for each station in the region. 9. Click Check to verify your predictions. Record the correct station models on the line that says. The correct answer will be shown in beige. It may or may not match your predictions. If the station model is not a correct answer put an X on the Ans line. 10. Repeat steps 4-9 using other regions of the United States.

8 Journal Questions 1. How did your Day 4 predictions compare with the actual weather conditions, as shown on the beige station models? 2. What observations and weather attributes did you find most helpful in predicting the weather conditions? Why? 3. Meteorologists have predicted the following weather for OKC for the next three days:
