Weather is the condition of the atmosphere in an area over a short period of time.
A ___________ is a scientist who studies the weather.
What are the Weather Elements?
It refers to the hotness or coldness of air around you.
Air temperature is affected by clouds and rainfall.
It is a device that is used to measure the hotness or coldness of the air.
Air temperature is usually higher during the night than at day.
It is the force exerted by air on you or on an area.
Atmospheric pressure is measured by a __________.
Changes in atmospheric pressure cause changes in the weather.
High atmospheric pressure brings clear skies and cool weather.
High atmospheric pressure brings warm weather, rain , or storm.
Atmospheric pressure changes with altitude.
High areas like Baguio and Tagaytay have cooler weather due to low atmospheric pressure.
Are made of water droplets or ice crystals floating high in the sky.
Clouds are not formed when water vapor in the air above the surface of the Earth cools and changes into water droplets.
The type of clouds in the sky affects the condition of weather.
It is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air.
Water vapor is water in gaseous state. It turns into clouds, then rain or snow.
A ________ measures how humid or dry the air is.
Humidity is usually expressed as relative humidity, or the ratio of the amount of water vapor the air can hold.
Relative humidity is expressed as a _________.
A relative humidity of 100 percent means the air can hold any more water vapor.
Excess water vapor will eventually fall as rain.
The rate of evaporation is slow when humidity is high, hence you perspire a lot.
It is moving air. Air moves from an area with high atmospheric pressure to an area with low atmospheric pressure.
It measures speed of the wind.
It measures the direction of the wind.
The greater the atmospheric pressure difference in specific areas, the stronger the wind.
Water droplets in the sky merge and form bigger water droplets and eventually fall to the ground as rain. This is called precipitation.
It measures the amount of rainfall.
Which government agency informs us of the weather?
What is the importance of a weather forecast?
An Adaptable Disposition allows us to adjust to different types of weather.
We shouldn't be aware of the weather condition to enjoy our activities.
We should be protected from the harmful effects of the different types of weather.
Are characterized by high temperature with clear skies and the sun shines brightly.
It is NOT important to stay hydrated during sunny weather.
Are characterized by the many presence of clouds in the sky.
The Sun is usually covered by light clouds, making the surroundings a bit cooler.
Are characterized by strong winds.
Clouds could be present during windy days.
Light to heavy rain can be observed during rainy days.
Are characterized by strong wind and heavy rain.
