- 9. A tool to measure air pressure.
- 10. Someone that compiles data and examines bigger weather patterns by using weather maps that record weather fronts.
- 12. When a faster-moving cold front overtakes a mass of warm air and the temperature difference is not extreme.
- 16. Forms wind.
- 17. It's force is caused by moving air and water masses.
- 18. Where all weather occurs.
- 19. Spiral winds that form over the ocean.

Down
- 1. Is measured over large portions of the ocean by satalites, and are usually warmer at lower latitudes and cooler at higher latitudes (seasons may affect this).
- 2. When a mass of cold air replaces a mass of warm air and the cold, dense air pushes underneath the warm air.
- 4. The cooling of the sea surface underneath a hurricane.
- 5. When a warm air mass overtakes cold air.
- 7. Tool to measure wind speed.
- 8. Form over a large area of land and takes the general temperature and moisture characteristics of the area over which it formed.
- 11. The change in direction of wind.
- 13. Boundary between air masses.
- 14. How water is replenished.
- 15. The regular rise and fall of the ocean due to the gravitational attraction of the moon and the sun on the Earth.
