CATEGORY 1 - $100
Warm molecules do this due to
density differences
CATEGORY 1 - $200
Cold currents come from this
location on Earth
CATEGORY 1 - $300
Warm air comes from this location
on Earth
CATEGORY 1 - $400
The flow of air creating wind is
caused by this
CATEGORY 1 - $500
Transfer of heat in a fluid by the
movement of molecules due to
density differences
CATEGORY 2 - $100
Rapidly pushes a warm air mass
up, bringing high winds, lower
temperatures and can form
thunderstorms
CATEGORY 2 - $200
This is my symbol on a weather
map:
CATEGORY 2 - $300
Occurs when air masses don’t
move, temperatures don’t change
and precipitation can last for days
CATEGORY 2 - $400
Replaces cold air, winds are gentle
and warm
CATEGORY 2 - $500
A boundary where different air
masses meet
CATEGORY 3 - $100
Surface currents have a major
influence on this
CATEGORY 3 - $200
Warm, dry air masses originate
here
CATEGORY 3 - $300
The amount of energy it takes to
change the temperature of a
substance
CATEGORY 3 - $400
The wind blows when air flows
from
_____ pressure
to
______ pressure
CATEGORY 3 - $500
The properties of this are
determined by the part of the
Earth’s surface over which it
forms
CATEGORY 4 - $100
The portion of the Earth that
receives the most direct rays of
sunlight
CATEGORY 4 - $200
Which gains and loses energy
easiest – land or water?
CATEGORY 4 - $300
The ultimate source of energy on
Earth
CATEGORY 4 - $400
Why the grass is cooler than the
sidewalk on a hot summer day
CATEGORY 4 - $500
The interaction of the air, water
and the Sun
CATEGORY 5 - $100
High pressure brings this type of
weather
CATEGORY 5 - $200
Responsible for the movement of
much of the weather across the US
and Canada
CATEGORY 5 - $300
A violent, whirling wind that moves
in a narrow path over land
CATEGORY 5 - $400
Powerful tropic storm that develops
over and draws it’s energy from the
ocean

Meteorologist
FINAL CATEGORY
Forecast the Weather!!
FINAL CATEGORY
•Areas of high pressure can expect nice weather and
storms along areas of low pressure
•Stationary front
•in Canada – MT – WY
•also in the SE bringing light rain and drizzle and
some fog
•Cold front pushing off the TX coast
•Warm front pushing north up into SE states and another
coming in from the Pacific into the NW later today
•Light rain and drizzle in the NW
