Local Winds$ 100 Powerful East Coast storms usually foreshadowed by northeast winds.

Local Winds$200 A daytime breeze that blows from the ocean towards the beach.

Local Winds $300 Haboobs (violent dust storms), dust devils, whirlwinds, and sandstorms.

Local Winds$400 Winds that change according to the season.

Local Winds$500 Very cold down sloping wind that comes from a large snow covered plateau.

Air Pressure 1$ millibars.

Air Pressure 1$200 True or false. Air pressure is in a constant state of change.

Air Pressure 1$300 Instrument that measures air pressure.

Air Pressure 1$400 Winds blow outward and clockwise.

Air Pressure 2 $ millibars

Air Pressure 2 $ millibars

Air Pressure 2 $ millibars

Air Pressure 2 $400 Warmer and more humid air.

Air Pressure 2 $500 Cooler and drier air.

Global Winds $100 Wind is deflected to the right of its direction of motion.

Global Winds$200 Wind is deflected to the left of its direction of motion.

Global Winds $300 The rotation of the Earth causes this effect.

Global Winds $400 The force that generates wind.

Global Winds$500 Most likely to be the windiest areas on the Earth due to a lack of friction.

Misc.$100 A favorable area in which to study monsoons.

Misc. $ millibars.

Misc. $300 A warm dry wind that decends from the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains.

Misc.$400 Hot, dry winds that are infamous for creating large fires in Southern California.

Misc. $500 A bitterly cold wind associated with a cold front that comes from Canada and can change temperature very rapidly.

Final Jeopardy Wind. WINNER What makes wind blow (4 specific sequential steps)?
