1. OBJECTIVE: Explain how to interpret a weather map.
DO NOW:
Take out Station Model HW
INTRO:
What are some things on weather map would you expect to see?
OUTRO:
None

2. Station Model HW

3. Station Model HW Temperature = 20˚C Weather Condition = Dew
Dew point = 15˚C
Wind Speed = 3km/h from the West
High Clouds = cirrus
Cloud Cover = Scattered clouds
Air Pressure = 102kPa

4. Station Model HW
In Miami, Florida, a weather station was inundated with heavy rains from a subtropical storm that moved in off the coast. The barometric pressure is reading 30kPa. Cumulonimbus clouds cover the entire sky, and wind speed of 45km/h are coming in from the East. The wind has chilled the air to a brisk 15° C, with the dew point sitting at around 10° C.

5. Station Model HW
The Las Vegas weather station has observed a record high temperature today of 50° C and a barometer reading of 30kPa. The sky is sunny. Winds are coming out of the Northeast, but are barely registering at a calm 3km/h. Due to the calm winds; a light haze can be seen above the city. The dew point is 37° C.
