WARM UP:
What is weather?

3. The Water Cycle and the Sun
(2)
The Sun (1) powers the water cycle.
Solar power causes water in the ocean (5) to evaporate (3) , condense (2) into clouds and fall back to Earth as precipitation (4).

4. Earth’s shape and tilt Earth is round.
(3)
Earth is round.
Different parts get different amounts of sunlight.
The equator gets the most direct sunlight.
The poles get indirect sunlight.

5. Cause: Air pressure Effect: Wind movement
Air pressure differences cause wind.
Wind is moving air.
Warmer areas have low pressure (higher in altitude.)
Cooler areas have high pressure (lower in altitude.)
Air likes to move from high pressure areas into low pressure areas.
Cause: Air pressure Effect: Wind movement

6. Check out the weather bug on the JML roof!
On the BACK of your
notes is our
weather chart!
WE will fill this out
together so please
keep these in your
NOTES section!
Check out the weather bug on the JML roof!

7. What to KNOW: Heat moves around- Convection, Conduction, and Radiation
Types of weather
Types of fronts- cold front & warm fronts
What
to KNOW:
Measurement tools for weather- thermometer, barometer, rain gauge, hygrometer/psychrometer
Sea Breeze and Land Breeze differences
Air pressure in weather

8. Coriolis Effect The TROPOSPHERE air is constantly moving too.
There are CONVECTION currents of air.
Warm air from the equator moves toward the poles and cold air from the poles moves toward the equator.

9. Thinking about our Weather
How does weather affect air travel and safety?
How does daily weather affect YOUR afterschool plans?

10. SNOW FUN PICTURE
I took this picture!
It is a hill in ROMANIA!
