2 Instructions for using this template. Remember this is Jeopardy, so where I have written “Answer” this is the prompt the students will see, and where I have “Question” should be the student’s response. To enter your questions and answers, click once on the text on the slide, then highlight and just type over what’s there to replace it. If you hit Delete or Backspace, it sometimes makes the text box disappear. When clicking on the slide to move to the next appropriate slide, be sure you see the hand, not the arrow. (If you put your cursor over a text box, it will be an arrow and WILL NOT take you to the right location.)

3 Choose a category. You will be given the answer. You must give the correct question. Click to begin.

4 Click here for Final Jeopardy

5 General Weather Station Model Wind More Wind Air Masses 10 Point 20 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points 10 Point 20 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points Pressure

6 This happens when air rises, expands and cools to its dew point temperature.

7 What is Condensation, clouds, rain?

8 Difference between the wet-bulb and dry- bulb is 9 and the dry bulb is 10. What is relative humidity?

9 What is 4%?

10 This is the surface wind pattern in a high pressure system.

11 What is clockwise and away or divergent?

12 Weather only happens in this atmospheric layer.

13 What is the troposphere?

14 This instrument measures the amount of moisture (water vapor) in the air.

15 What is a sling psychrometer?

16 This is always shown on the upper left hand side of a station model.

17 What is temperature?

18 These “feathers” indicate this.

19 What is wind speed?

20 The shading on the station model indicates this...

21 What is cloud cover?

22 This number reads 196 and is located on the upper right hand side of a station model.

23 What is barometric pressure?

24 Convert this pressure reading: 873

25 What is 987.3 millibars?

26 When high pressure is over the land and low pressure is over the water, we call it this type of breeze

27 What is a land breeze?

28 We name winds according to the direction they are…

29 What is coming from?

30 Convert this air pressure reading: 120

31 What is 1012.0?

32 “A” is a region of ______ pressure.

33 What is high pressure?

34 When you connect areas of equal barometric pressure and you measure the distance, you can calculate this.

35 What is pressure gradient?

36 When high pressure over the ocean moves toward low pressure over the land this type of breeze develops.

37 What is a Sea Breeze?

38 This instrument is used to measure wind speed.

39 What is an anemometer?

40 This causes the deflection of winds to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.

41 What is Earth’s Rotation or Coriolis Effect.

42 State the wind direction and wind speed in this station model.

43 What is south east at 25 knots?

44 This latitude has high heat, low air pressure, and daily rains.

45 What is the Equator?

46 When winds come together we call it this...

47 What is convergence?

48 It is called this when winds spread apart.

49 What is divergence?

50 Our latitude receive these winds. *&* Must know this one folks!

51 What are South Westerly or Westerlies?

52 The polar regions receive these types of winds.

53 What are Polar Easterlies?

54 When isobars are spaced close together; it causes this.

55 What are gusts or wind gusts?

56 We call it this if the air mass is warm and humid.

57 What is Maritme Tropical?

58 When a cold air mass and a warm air mass meet, this will happen...

59 What is precipitation rain, clouds?

60 This air mass will sink, shrink and compress….

61 What is a cold air mass?

62 This is how the winds blow in a low pressure system.

63 What is counter- clockwise and convergent?

64 This are the two characteristics used to describe an air mass...

65 What is temperature and moisture content?

66 Make your wager

67 The squeezing effects on the molecules of gases making up the air is also known as.

68 What is air pressure?
