Across
- 2. - line drawn on a weather map that connects two places with the same atmospheric pressure
- 4. amount of water vapor held in the air
- 5. - severe winter storm with freezing cold temperatures, blowing snow, all this causes poor visibility that lasts at least 3 hours
- 6. - line drawn on a weather map that connects locations with the same temperature
- 9. - person who studies the weather
- 10. model - indicates weather conditions at a specific location by using symbols on a map
- 11. state of the atmosphere at a specific time and place
- 13. - boundary between two air masses with different temperature, density, or moisture
- 14. mass- large body of air that has the same characteristics of temperature and moisture content as the area where it formed
- 15. - stratus clouds that form when air near the ground is cooled to its dew point
Down
- 1. - water falling from clouds in many forms determining on the temperature
- 3. large severe storm that forms over tropical oceans and has winds of at least 119 miles per hour
- 7. humidity- measure of the amount of moisture held in the air compared with the amount it can hold at a given temperature
- 8. point - temperature at which air is saturated and condensation forms
- 12. - violently turning column of air in contact with the ground
