100
It is the day-to-day conditions in the atmosphere.
What is weather?
100
It is what happens when the clouds become saturated and the temperature is above 0oC or 32oF.
What is rain?
100
High pressure systems usually bring this type of weather.
What is sunny?
100
It is the direction of thermal energy flow.
What is hot to cold?
or
What is high to low?
100
This is what happens when fronts of differing pressure and temperature collide.
What is a storm?
200
It is the amount of water vapor in the air.
What is humidity?
200
It is the phenomenon that causes hurricanes to move clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere.
What is the Coriolis effect?
200
This is the cause of wind.
What is air moving from high to low pressure?
200
This is the symbol for a warm front.
What is
200
It is the name for the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance.
What is specific heat?
300
It is the name for large bodies of air with uniform temperature and moisture characteristics.
What is an air mass?
300
This is the part of the hydrologic cycle that causes clouds to form.
What is condensation?
300
This is the definition of isobars.
What are lines on a map that connect points of equal air pressure.
300
In addition to water vapor, these are necessary for clouds to form.
What are cloud condensation nuclei?
300
This is a model of what particles of water vapor would look like above a pot of boiling soup.
What is ... ?
400
This is a boundary separating two air masses of different densities, characterized by differences in temperature and moisture.
What is a front?
400
This is what drives the hydrologic cycle by allowing water to flow downhill.
What is gravity?
400
An air mass measuring 1020mb and bringing sunny weather is THIS type of air pressure system.
What is a high pressure system?
400
This is the layer of the atmosphere in which all weather occurs.
What is the troposphere?
400
It is the direction that masses of differing pressure flow.
What is high to low?
500
This is the symbol that indicates the presence of an occluded front.
What is 
500
This is what drives the hydrologic cycle by causing evaporation in the environment.
What is solar energy?
500
This is what causes differences in air pressure.
What is "unequal heating of the Earth's surface"?
500
This is the measurement of the kinetic energy of a substance's particles.
What is temperature?
500
This is the reason why the lower part of the troposphere is warmer than the upper part that is closer to the sun.
What is, the Earth absorbs the sun's radiation and releases it back into the atmosphere?
