7 Gathering Weather Data

8 Collecting Surface Data
Thermometer – measures temp Barometer – measures pressure Anemometer – measures wind speed Hygrometer – measures relative humidity

9 Upper Level Data Radiosonde – Weather balloon

10 Weather Radar uses electromagnetic waves to find larger cloud droplets
used to pinpoint rainfall uses electromagnetic waves to find larger cloud droplets collected by antennae on ground

11 Weather Satellite cameras on satellites take pictures of Earth
data is sent to ground stations these track cloud cover

12 Infrared Satellite detect differences in thermal energy
infrared images detect the different temps of clouds

13 Satellite/Radar Combined
