100
This is a boundary between two air masses
What is a front?
100
Change the station model pressure of 521 to its correct form.
952.1mb
100
a large body of air measured by temperature and humidity
what is an air mass?
100
This is caused by the weight of the air above an area
What is air pressure?
200
A warm air mass glides over the cooler air mass producing light drizzle or snow.
What are warm fronts?
200
Abbreviate 1041.8mb so it can be used on a station model.
418
200
This type of pressure causes clouds and rain or storms.
What is Low Pressure?
200
Air pressure goes up when
density increases
300
Cold air rushes under the warm air forcing it to rise.
What are cold fronts?
300
What would you write in the bottom left of a station model? Temp: 85 F, Dewpoint: 90F, or Present Weather: fog
90F
300
the things maritime polar air masses are associated with
what is cool, moist, and unstable air?
300
True or False: Air pressure decreases as the temperature of air increases.
TRUE
400
Strong storms form
What are cold fronts?
400
Change the station model pressure of 007 to its correct form.
1000.7mb
400
This is how Low Pressure air moves.
Moves upward in the atmosphere
400
True or False: Stormy, wet weather is associated with conditions of high air pressure.
False
500
the way an occluded front is formed
what is an air mass getting caught between two cold air masses?
500
What goes on a station model directly below the air pressure number?
The pressure tendency/pressure trend
500
High pressure is formed from cold air that does this
What is sinking 
500
What unit of measurement is used by meteorologists to describe air pressure?
millibars
