Across
- 3. boundary where two air masses meet and weather occurs
- 4. all of the water on Earth (lakes, oceans, clouds)
- 5. when warm air stretches over a cold air mass causing steady light rain or snow
- 8. leaves cloud as ice crystals, melts in warm layer, refreezes (32F or colder) before hitting the ground as ice
- 10. dry and cold air mass
- 11. precipitation made of white ice crystals that fall from clouds
- 12. wet and warm air mass
- 14. system where winds blow away from high pressure (generally dry weather & clear skies)
- 15. mixture of liquid and frozen precipitation forming a large frozen raindrop
Down
- 1. all of the gases surrounding Earth (five layers)
- 2. when a cold air mass pushes warm air mass up causing heavy rain, thunderstorms, and snow
- 5. is affected by air pressure and air temperature
- 6. liquid precipitation in the form of water droplets
- 7. wet and cold air mass
- 9. system where winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet
- 13. dry and warm air mass
