WHAT CAUSES WEATHER??
• Unequal heating of the atmosphere
• General principles behind weather state:
Sun heats earth’s surface more in some places rather than in others
Where it is warm, solar energy warms the air close to the ground
Warm air is less dense so air rises, if this happens more air flows to take
up space
Rising air cools as it goes up in the atmosphere
If moist, water vapor may condense
Clouds and precipitation will fall
