Predicting Weather Conditions Do you have a career as a meteorologist?
It is essential for students for know 1. Weather conditions and patterns can be based on weather data collected from various sources. a) Discarded b) Predicted c) Disastrous d) Hurricane
Direct Observations and 2. Basic weather conditions can be observed, measured or obtained from. Measurements a) Weatherologist b) Climatologist c) Meteorologist d) Histologist
3. In order to make weather predictions, the data should be collected. Direct Observations and Measurements a) Once a year b) Twice a month c) On a regular basis over a period of time d) Whenever you need information
Direct Observations and 4. The consistent collection of weather data allows for the development of in weather conditions. a) patterns b) flaws c) conditions d) Storms Measurements
Direct Observations and 5. A hurricane s path can be predicted using data on its allowing meteorologists to warn the public. a) Length over time b) Amount over time c) Position over time d) Rain over time Measurements
6. The numbers on picture are called isotherms, used on weather maps to indicate. a) A little to a lot of rainfall b) A little to a lot of cloud cover c) High and low temperatures d) High or low pressure systems Weather Maps
7. The lines with the numbers on the picture are called isobars, used on weather maps to indicate. a) A little to a lot of rainfall b) A little to a lot of cloud cover c) High and low temperatures d) High or low pressure systems Weather Maps
You will need this slide to help you answer questions 8,9,10

Draw and label both 11.What are 2 ways meteorologist can predict cloud patterns, detect cloud cover, rain or storm location and severe weather? a) Satellite and radar b) Rain gauge c) Radar and news d) Hurricane warnings and satellites
Use the video link below to help you answer questions 12-17 Weather Instruments: The keywords from the question should be what the instrument measures. Then draw the instruments before you watch the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znmtns2z3xc If the link doesn t work, I added a link to the post as well.
