Air flows in a clock-wise direction on the surface of the Earth. Cold, dense air sinks to the surface of the Earth. Airs flows in a counter clock- wise direction at the surface of the Earth. L Warm, less dense air rises forming clouds Pressure Changes with Temperature

Stationary Front Occluded Front Warm Front Cold FrontH High Pressure L Low Pressure 45 °C 28 °C 29 °C 25 °C 40 °C Which direction is the warm front moving? What will happen to the weather in Denton?

Airs flows in a counter clock- wise direction at the surface of the Earth. L Warm, less dense air rises forming clouds Air flows in a clock-wise direction on the surface of the Earth. Cold, dense air sinks to the surface of the Earth. STATION MODEL is created when data that is collected is recorded on a map using a combination of symbols. There are many areas of high and low pressure above the Earth’s surface due to uneven surface heating creating pressure gradients. Air moves from high pressure to low pressure forming winds. Air flows in a clock-wise direction on the surface of the Earth in High Pressure areas. Airs flows in a counter clock-wise direction at the surface of the Earth in Low Pressure areas. Symbols for Fronts Cold, dense air sinks to the surface of the Earth forming. Warm, less dense air rises forming clouds The closer the isobars, the stronger the winds blow. The more spread out the isobars the gentler the winds. Isobars are lines that connect equal atmospheric pressure.
