Meteorology Introduction

Chapter 1 Introduction to the Atmosphere The Atmosphere 10e Lutgens & Tarbuck Power Point by Michael C. LoPresto

What is meteorology? What is the difference between weather and climate? Earth’s weather, climate, and seasons are due to…..? What are the basic elements of weather and climate? How does weather influence our daily lives? Today’s Essential Questions

Weather: Myth or Fact? 1.The South Pole is the sunniest place on Earth. 2.Raindrops are teardrop shaped. 3.Clouds can’t fall from the sky. 4.Hurricanes and typhoons are the same thing. 5.There can be thunders during a snowstorm. 6.Lightning strikes down to the ground. 7.You can get to the end of a rainbow. 8.It can snow at the equator. 9.There is weather on other planets. 10.Safest place in a thunderstorm is under a tree.

Brainstorm List several severe weather hazards: - Check on page 5

Hurricane Charley August 13, 2004

Plainfield Tornado 1990

A Blizzard in Boston 2005

Winter Rains Trigger Mudslides in California 2005

Severe drought in Midwest

Weather and Climate are due to… the motions of the Earth (tilt, rotation and revolution) the amount of Energy from the Sun

One area of Earth System Science (including geology, oceanography, astronomy)

Weather vs. Climate (page 3) GeoDe CD

A Typical Newspaper Weather Map Coldest? Warmest? H indicates fair or foul weather? Warmer? Texas or Maine Fig. 1-2 page 3

Temperature Data for New York What’s the Average Daily High temperature in … January? ________ July? ________ What are the highest? ______ Lowest? ______ temperatures ever recorded? Fig. 1-4 page 4

Decades of daily weather observations and data determine the overall climate in a region, but…. Climate data cannot predict the weather! Old saying… Climate is what you expect, weather is what you get. If you’ve lived in the Midwest you know this too well!
