I measure the direction of wind.
Weather vane
Energy from the sun heats up the surface of the Earth (this is the first step in the water cycle)
Evaporation
Barometer
The coolest area in a room during the winter
Windows
Temperature must be above zero
Rain
As water vapour rises up high into the sky, it cools and turns back into a liquid, forming clouds (second stage in the water cycle)
Condensation
If you have a fever or to measure the temperature of the air or water, use me.
Thermometer
a type of surface that tends to be warmer in direct sunlight
Darker
Temperature must be below zero in the cloud
Snow
any liquid or frozen water that is formed in the atmosphere that falls to Earth
Precipitation
I am used to determine how fast or slow the wind blows
Anemometer
warm air rises, the air near the roof in the room will be....
Warmer
Temperature must be above zero to start, then drops on the way down
Sleet
this step occurs after precipitation in the water cycle and brings all the water back up to the sky
Curious about how much rain fell in a certain period of time? Use me to measure it.
Rain gauge
a draft occurs near me in a room
Exits
Temperature must be above zero, but then it hits very cold wind that blows it around and around
