Severe Weather
100
Scorching Sand and Frigid Snow...two very distinctive substances that are involved in temperature, the unit this weather tool measures.
What is a Thermometer?
100
This component of the water cycle moves a variety of ways. The flowing liquid of it may seep into the soil, evaporate into a gas in the atmosphere, become contained in lakes and reservoirs, or be extracted for agriculture and other human uses.
What is Runoff?
100
These are smooth, gray clouds that cover the entire sky and block the sun's beams. Light rain and drizzle are involved in this type of cloud. When these clouds are formed close to the ground, it is now classified as fog.
What is a Stratus cloud?
100
This kind of air pressure indicates cloudy, wet weather and has more chilly, frigid air.
What is High Air Pressure?
100
This severe weather form has the booming noise of thunder and the electricity element of lighting. It occurs with the speedy upward movement of warm and moist air.
What is a Thunderstorm?
200
There are many intricate supplies that help us solve the mysterious wonders of weather. This weather tool is essential for measuring air pressure.
What is a Barometer?
200
This procedure of the water cycle occurs when radiant heat from the sun heats up the numerous bodies of water and modifys them into a invisible gas form in the atmosphere.
What is Evaporation?
200
These are clouds that are horizontal layers that also resemble lengthy streaks in the sky by its appearance. They are made by ice crystals and are a warning that rain or snow will fall within a few hours.
What is a Cirrus cloud?
200
This kind of air pressure indicates cloudy and wet circumstances, as well as having more sweltering air.
What is Low Air Pressure?
200
This catastrophic weather form occurs over tropical and aquatic environments. It inflicts enormous damage to it's target areas. It has excessive speeds and is a violent menace.
What is a Hurricane?
300
Inquisitive explorers use this helpful item to seek certain locations, usually for a valuable goal. It determines the direction of the wind.
What is a Compass?
300
This water cycle part is the procedure of a gas into a liquid state of matter. It happens when temperatures of liquid molecules changes and is often associated with clouds.
What is Condensation?
300
They look like heaps of cotton in the sky and are in the low level category of clouds in altitude. When they become more expansive and less illuminated, they generate thunderstorms and become cumulonimbus clouds.
What is a Cumulus cloud?
300
This is a wind supply that contains robust winds. They are fast flowing and narrow and are incorporated in some planet atmospheres including Earth.
What is a Jetstream?
300
It's appearance is a funnel shape made visible by condensation and debris. It has exceptionally fast speeds that collapse any materials in its path.
What is a Tornado?
400
This question isn't as quite as sophisticated as the others. This weather tool measures relative humidity.
What is a Hygrometer?
400
This section of the water cycle is when a product of the condensation water vapor, such as rain, snow, sleet or hail, falls under the force of gravity and provides rich soil as well as an abundance of water into lakes, oceans, rivers and seas.
What is Precipitation?
400
This is the description of this weather terms' development. They are formed when water vapor condenses into diminutive particles of dust or other materials of solid proportion. Tiny droplets make the many shapes and sizes of the weather form.
What is a Cloud?
400
Colder air sinks because it is more compressed. The cool air pushes warm air upwards and it rises. What process does this make?
What is Circulation?
400
This severe weather is a snowstorm with winds of an astonishing 35 miles. It has frigid temperatures of 20 degrees or less. They also produce vigorous winds that create extensive ocean waves.
What is a Blizzard?
500
This weather tool measures wind speed in sluggish or rapid amounts.
What is an Anemometer?
500
This is the opposite of Condensation. It transforms from a liquid position of matter into a gas state.
What is Vaporization?
500
This is determined by the supply of precipitation that falls. It's also determined by the temperature on Earth. About 25% of the Sun's energy is reflected into space by clouds. The lower altitude and thickness, the more sunlight reflection that helps to cool Earth.
What is the Cloud's affect on the climate?
500
This happens on the tops of mountains and when you are in airplanes. As the number of molecules decreases, the air pressure decreases simultaneously. It causes this body part to pop in order to balance the pressure between the inside and outside of it.
What is "the Ear popping?"
500
This severe weather form is known as an absense of precipitation (dry weather) at an extensive time. It causes devestating conditions such as failure in crop production, diminishment in water resources, and the risk of wildfires.
