Weather Maps

Isotherm Map map that shows areas of equal temperature

Isobar Map map that shows areas of equal atmospheric pressure

Isobar Map

Isobar Map closer isobars = higher pressure gradient = stronger winds

Reading A Station Model

Wind Direction? NE Wind Wind Speed? 10 knots 20 knots 25 knots

The 500 Rule Station model pressure is less than 500 put the number 10 in front and insert a decimal to create a 10th’s place

The 500 Rule Station model pressure is greater than 500 put the number 9 in front and insert a decimal to create a 10th’s place

What was the barometric pressure 3 hours ago What was the barometric pressure 3 hours ago? current air pressure is 1019.6 mb Barometric trend is a steady rise of 1.9 mb in last 3 hrs.
