100
Air that surrounds the Earth
What is the atmosphere?
100
We measure temperature with this weather tool.
What is a thermometer?
100
Water changes into a gas when it is heated by the sun during this part of the water cycle.
What is evaporation?
100
Moving air is known as this.
What is wind?
100
Sunny weather is represented by this symbol.
What is a picture of a sun?
200
The layer of the atmosphere where weather takes place.
What is the troposphere?
200
We know the direction of the wind with this weather instrument.
What is a weather vane?
200
As the water vapor rises it cools. The cooled water vapor changes back into liquid water drops during this phase.
What is condensation?
200
Large bodies of air are known as this.
What are air masses?
200
Rain is shown with this symbol.
What are raindrops?
300
The layer of the atmosphere where the northern lights happen, and is closest to outer space.
What is the thermosphere?
300
This weather instrument measures how much precipitation has fallen.
What is a rain gauge?
300
When enough water has condensed in the clouds, the water falls to Earth during this phase.
What is precipitation?
300
Air moves between these two pressure points.
What is high pressure to low pressure?
300
Thunder would be shown using this symbol.
What are lightening bolts?
400
The layer of the atmosphere where the jet stream is located.
What is the stratosphere?
400
We measure air pressure with this weather tool.
What is a barometer?
400
Depending on the temperature, precipitation can fall to earth in these four forms.
What are rain, snow, sleet, or hail?
400
Cooler air has this kind of pressure.
What is higher pressure?
400
A cloudy day would be shown using this symbol.
What are clouds?
500
The layer of the atmosphere between the stratosphere and the thermosphere.
What is the mesosphere?
500
We use this weather instrument to measure how fast the air is moving.
What is an anemometer?
500
Some precipitation falls into bodies of water. Other precipitation soaks into the land to become this.
What is groundwater or accumulation?
500
Warmer air has this kind of pressure.
What is low pressure?
500
A partly cloudy or partly sunny day would be shown with this symbol.
What is a cloud and sun?
