8. What is weather?

9. Weather is the condition or state of the atmosphere (air) at a specific place or time. Weather can change quickly and may change throughout the day.

10. Weather is the condition of the atmosphere at a particular time and place. It is the day-to-day change in Temperature Wind Precipitation

11. The study of weather is called meteorology. A scientist who studies and predicts the weather is called a meteorologist. Weather of a place changes everyday.

12. What is Climate? Climate is the general pattern of weather conditions in a place over a long period of time (usually 30 years or more)

13. What is Climate? Climate is the general pattern of weather conditions in a place over a long period of time (usually 30 years ormore )

14. CLIMATE

15. Climate is the weather condition of a place over a long period of time, say twenty to thirty years. Different parts of the world experience different types of climate. For example: Hot and wet Hot and dry Cold Moderate

16. What is Climate? Climate is the general pattern of weather conditions in a place over a long period of time (usually 30 years or more)

17. Thermometers are used to measure the temperature of the air. Barometers measure air pressure, which can help predict changes in the weather. Weather satellites capture images and gather data about the atmospheric conditions. Thermometer BAROMETER WEATHER SATELLITE Anemometers are used to measure wind speed. ANEMOMETER

20. Weather is the state of the atmosphere or the conditions in the air around us. It includes things like temperature, precipitation, wind, and cloud cover. Weather changes from day to day and can be different in various parts of the world. WEATHER

21. Temperature is the measure of the amount of heat in the air. Warm air rises, and cold air sinks. Temperature variations can create differences in air pressure, which can cause wind.. temperature

22. is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that falls from clouds due to gravitational pull. precipitation

23. Air pressure is the force exerted by the weight of the air above us. The weight of the air decreases as we move higher in the atmosphere.. Air pressure Low pressure occurs when the weight of the air is less than the surrounding air, while high pressure occurs when the weight of the air is more than the surrounding air

24. Humidity is the amount of moisture in the air. Warm air can hold more moisture than cold air. When warm, moist air rises and cools, the moisture can condense and form clouds. If the conditions are right, precipitation can occur humidity

25. Relative humidity is a measure of how much moisture the air can hold relative to its temperature. High relative humidity often makes it feel hotter than it actually is, while low relative humidity can make it feel cooler. humidity

26. Cloud formation is influenced by several factors, including temperature, humidity, and air pressure. Warm, moist air rises and cools, which can cause the moisture to condense and form clouds. The amount of moisture in the air and the speed and direction of the wind can also affect cloud formation Cloud formation

27. If the conditions are right, precipitation can occur, leading to rain or snow. Understanding the factors that influence cloud formation is crucial for predicting changes in the weather and issuing warnings for extreme weather conditions. Cloud formation

28. Wind is the movement of air from high pressure to low pressure. The speed and direction of the wind can impact the weather. It is caused by differences in atmospheric pressure and temperature. Wind plays a crucial role in shaping weather patterns, from gentle breezes to powerful storms. wind

29. Winds can also transport heat and moisture from one location to another, influencing weather conditions in different areas. For example , if the wind is blowing from a cold area, it can bring cooler temperatures, while if it is blowing from a warm area, it can bring warmer temperatures wind

30. What is Climate? Climate is the general pattern of weather conditions in a place over a long period of time (usually 30 years or more)

31. By studying how weather systems move and interact, meteorologists can predict the future path and intensity of storms, the likelihood of rain or snow, and even long-term climate trends. WEATHER PREDICTION

32. What are the different climate zones?

33. Found near the equator, these regions have warm temperatures throughout the year and high humidity. They often have lush rainforests and experience a lot of rainfall. TROPICAL CLIMATE

34. These regions have distinct seasons, including warm summers and cool winters. They are found in the middle latitudes and have moderate rainfall. TEMPERATE CLIMATE

35. Near the Earth's poles, these regions are very cold and experience long, harsh winters with little daylight. They have low precipitation and are covered in ice and snow. POLAR CLIMATE

36. Deserts are hot and dry regions with very little rainfall. They have extreme temperature ranges, with scorching hot days and cool nights. DRY/DESERT CLIMATE

37. Why is it important to learn about weather patterns and climate?

38. It helps us understand why different weather conditions occur and how they impact our daily lives. It allows us to make informed decisions about what to wear, how to plan outdoor activities, and how to stay safe during extreme weather events. UNDERSTANDING

39. Knowledge about weather patterns enables us to prepare for and respond to weather-related hazards like storms, floods, or heatwaves. We can take necessary precautions to keep ourselves and our communities safe. PREPAREDNESS

40. Farmers rely on understanding weather patterns and climate to make decisions about planting, irrigating, and harvesting crops. It helps them manage their farms effectively and ensure food production. AGRICULTURE

41. Weather patterns and climate are closely linked to the health of our planet. By learning about them, we develop a greater appreciation for the environment and the importance of protecting it. ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS

42. Remember, weather and climate affect us every day, no matter where we live. By learning about them, we can become more knowledgeable and responsible stewards of our planet.
