The+Weather...brrrr

Mrs. Harrison yelled, " I do not like this **weather**! When there a snowdays and I miss work, I am so sad!"

Mrs. Touchie-Blakley countered, " I need to move to a warmer **climate**."

If you are like most of the people I know, then you also are tired of this winter weather. Our new unit will investigate weather in greater detail. For example, how do cold air masses and warm air masses differ? How does the climate differ from the weather in a specific area?



In your text, please read and make notes on page 38 (Latitude, air masses, Ocean Currents). You must identify the following: •  All 3 major air masses that affect our weather. •  Both Ocean Currents •  How fog is formed. •  Questions: a) In what way are ocean currents and air masses similar?   ** b)  ** Which one’s effect is immediate, but longer lasting? Please write definitions for the following terms:  l   Anemometer  l   Barometer  l   Barometric pressure  l   Beaufort wind scale // Check the glossary on this website:  // // [|www.theweathernetwork.com/inter/help/glossary/]   //
