24.6 Predicting the Weather

Weather Forecasting Meteorologist – scientist who studies the weather. Meteorology – study of the Earth’s atmosphere

Doppler radar Radio waves are bounced off particles of precipitation to track speed and path of storms.

Weather stations & satelites Stations – collect data such as temp., precipitation, wind speed, and direction, pressure, humidity Satelites – In orbit, collect: cloud cover, humidity, temp, and wind speed

High Speed Computers Help compile data to make short term and long term forecasts. Short term – 12 hrs. – 3 days usually very accurate Long term – 7-12 days Good Luck!!!!!

Weather Maps

Weather Maps Use symbols to show fronts, pressure, precipitation, cloud cover. Also gives temps. and other local conditions

Symbols

Isobars Lines that connect points of equal pressure.

Isotherms Lines that connect points of equal temperature.
