  5. 18. - the state of the atmosphere at a particular time and place, with respect to variables such a temperature, moisture, wind and pressure
  6. 19. Mass - a large body of air with uniform temperature, humidity, and pressure
  7. 20. Pressure - the force exerted by the weight of air molecules
  8. 21. - the amount of water vapor in the air

  11. 31. - a tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 miles per hour
  12. 32. Point - the temperature at which a substance changes from a gas to a liquid, or from a liquid to a gas
  13. 34. Condensation Nuclei (CCN) - tiny particles in the atmosphere that serve as a surface for water vapor to condense around, forming clouds
  14. 36. Force - he upward force exerted on an object by the surrounding air, usually caused by differences in pressure
  15. 37. - the boundary between two different air masses
  16. 38. - the ability to do work or cause a change
  17. 39. - the transfer of heat or electricity through a substance without the substance itself moving
