Wind Speed Symbols

Cloud cover is shown by shaded circles. On this map the circles are either not shaded at all, half-shaded, or fully shaded. Who can tell me what a fully shaded circle represents?

They are curved lines on weather maps that connect places with similar conditions. Isobars – are lines joining places on the map that have the same AIR PRESSURE. (measured in inches or millibars) Isotherms – are lines joining places that have the same TEMPERATURE. (measured in degrees) * *See Textbook pg. 587
