Quiz Do Quiz on worksheet page ________ –Use the map given to answer the following questions. –Use your ESRT! –Hand in when done.

Weather Stations How we symbolize weather data.

Station models These models represent the weather currently or in the past for an area. Everything we need to know meteorologically is there. Used on maps to give as much info as possible, in small space.

All the big information is on the ESRT. –That’s nice of me?! ESRT page 13 - OPEN

Pressure readings We give pressure readings on the upper right of station model in a CODE… To Decode: from station model The first number… 0-5 add a 10 and a decimal 6-9 add a 9 and a decimal Code: into station Take off first # (9 or 10) and decimal mb is coded to 100… 995.5mb is coded to 955…

What’s the: Temperature Dew Point Weather Cloud Cover Wind Speed Wind direction Air Pressure 76 o F 55 o F HAZE 100% 20 knots NNW mb

You try Temperature: 78 o F Dew Point: 72 o F Visibility: 4 miles Present Weather: Rain Cloud Cover: 25% Pressure: mb Trend: 4.12 mb rise Precipitation: 1 inch Wind: 5 knots from northwest
