Presentation transcript:

Weather Forecasting

Forecasting methods Ships at sea, aero planes in sky, balloons, ocean buoys Radar-display of clouds, rain, thunderstorms, cyclones Satellites-pictures of cloud cover, cloud top and sea surface temperature, wind

Weather rocket Hydrogen filled balloon

Radar Weather satellite

Forecasting instruments Radio sounding (radiosonde) and radiowind (RAWIN)-pressure, temp, humidity, winds –various levels of atmosphere Synoptic observations-surface observations-every 3h, upper air observations-every 6h Radiosonde

Weather symbols

Weather forecasting Synoptic charts Forecasting-short range (8h), medium range (2-7), long range-weeks, months or a season Predictability Uses of forecasts

Organizations World Meteorological Organization(WMO) India-India Meteorological Department(IMD)
