- AIR - a mass of very cold, dry air that usually originates over the Arctic Ocean north of Canada and Alaska.
- - the standard scale used to measure temperature in the United States; in which the freezing point of water is thirty-two degrees and the boiling point is two hundred and twelve degrees.
- - A category. Usually refers to a category of precipitation given by the forecast models.
- - When the temperature at or near the surface is expected to be 32 or below, during the growing season. Adjectives, such as "killing,' "severe," or "hard," are used when appropriate. A freeze may or may not be accompanied by the formation of frost.
- - A storm lasting about 3 hours or longer with sustained winds 35 mph or greater with frequent gusts to 35 mph or greater; and considerable falling and/or blowing snow frequently reducing visibilities to less than 1/4 mile.
- - a layer or coating of ice that is generally smooth and clear, and forms on exposed objects by the freezing of liquid raindrops.
- RAIN (DRIZZLE) - Rain (drizzle) which freezes on contact to produce a coating of ice on the ground and other exposed surfaces.
- - the mass of air surrounding the earth and bound to it more or less permanently by the earth's gravitational attraction.
- FOG - A cloud, with its base on the surface, which reduces visibility to 1/4 of a mile or less.
- - A brief sudden increase in wind speed. Generally the duration is less than 20 seconds and the fluctuation is greater than 10 mph.
- WINDS - A counterclockwise change in wind direction. Backing winds with height are indicative of cold air advection
- FLOOD - A flood that occurs within a few hours (usually less than six) of heavy or excessive rainfall, dam or levee failure
- FREEZE - freeze where vegetation is killed and the ground surface is frozen solid.
- SNOW - An uneven distribution of snowfall/snow depth caused by strong surface winds, but does not reduce surface visibility.
- STORM - an area where high surface winds have picked up loose dust, reducing visibility to less than one-half mile.
- the state of the sky when 9/10ths or more of the sky is covered by clouds.
51 Clues: - refers to the spreading out of winds. • A 2-D process in which airstreams spread apart. • - Sky condition of less than 1/10 cloud coverage. • - Wind speeds from 39 to 54 mph (34 to 47 knots). • - the process of a liquid changing into a vapor or gas. • SNOW - Wind-driven snow which reduces surface visibility. • ...
