Across
- 1. Meteorological symbols pattern representing a particular observing stations weather and is recorded on map of weather.
- 6. A atmospheric pressure measuring instrument.
- 8. an increase of Earth’s atmosphere’s general temperature Because of carbon dioxide’s increased levels, chlorofluorocarbons, and more pollutants. It is thought to be attributed to the greenhouse effect.
- 9. Air temperature in an area is usually greater than that of rural surrounding area.
- 10. A water dome where a hurricane lands and sweeps across the coast.
- 12. Winds that are prevailing blow between 60-90 degrees latitude east to west in both hemisphere.

- 24. Comparison of weather patterns that are current to those that are in the past.
- 26. A wind speed measuring instrument.
- 28. Air rises as Earths surface is heated unequally in a single air mass.
- 29. Dense thunderstorms around hurricane’s eye it’s like a wall.
- 30. A very large body of air with a similar humidity pressure and temperature at any height.
- 32. Climate that differs a lot in the small area compared to area around.
- 37. Balloons carry a package of instruments to measure temperature dew point and wind velocity in the upper atmosphere.
- 40. Causes moving water and air to turn right in the northern hemisphere and left in the southern hemisphere due to Earth's hemisphere.
- 42. A temperature measuring instrument.
- 45. A relatively large and uniform area where an air mass forms.
- 46. Orographic lifting causes air mass to rise air moves up mountain side.
- 47. A scale using wind speed and damage caused to determine how severe a tornado is.
- 48. A boundary in which unlike air masses don’t mix but they meet.
- 50. When carbon dioxide water vapor methane and other gases retain heat in Earth’s atmosphere as a natural situation
- 51. Numerical data is used in a weather forecast to figure out how change over time occurs in atmospheric variables.
- 52. A discharge initially of electrons that intermittently goes toward the ground using a series of steps in a lightning stroke cloud-to-ground.
Down
- 2. Low sunspot activity period between 1645-1716 it corresponded with an episode that was small with cold climate known as the “Little Ice Age”.
- 3. An air stream with high altitude and speed blowing near the top of the troposphere from west to east.
- 4. The frequency change of a light or sound wave as source moves in relation to observer.
- 5. Downdrafts that are sudden & violent it is concentrated in a area that is local and has winds above 70mph
- 7. dry weather for a long period.
- 11. A storm with high winds spiraling around the center which is calm. Where they form is what determines whether they're called hurricanes, typhoons, or cyclones.
- 13. A line connecting same temperature points at time or average over period. This is shown on a map.
- 14. An ocean current that is warm flowing along Peru’s coast every 7-14 years.
- 16. A line connecting same atmospheric pressure points at time or average over long period of time this is shown on a map.
- 17. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter are each of the 4 divisions of the year. Weather patterns and daylight hours helps determine these seasons due to the changing position of Earth to the Sun.
- 18. At a certain time and place the condition of Earth’s atmosphere.
- 19. South regions of Antarctic Circle and north of Arctic circle. These areas get the least amount of year round direct sunlight.
- 20. Thermal energy is stored and released in water and land differently, this causes local air mass thunderstorms.
- 21. When part of the surface of the planet was under massive ice sheets. In this period the temperatures were incredibly cold.
- 22. An advancing cold and sometimes warm front produces a thunderstorm.
- 25. Lower than normal temperatures for an extended period.
- 27. Latitudes between the Arctic Circle in the north and the tropics and the Antarctic Circle in the south; milder climates regions than the tropics or polar regions.
- 31. A thunderstorm that is violent and can cause tornadoes to spawn.
- 33. Over a long period of time the average weather in a given area.
- 34. A air and gas humidity measuring instrument.
- 35. Positive charge's upward flow.
- 36. Earth’s climate and factors affecting future present and past climates study.
- 38. The center of the cyclone that has calm weather and blue sky. It has an area of 4-40 miles.
- 39. Area between Tropic of Capricorn and Tropic of Cancer.
- 41. A funnel shaped cloud that touches Earth's surface it is rapidly whirling.
- 43. uses wind speed potential property damage and air pressure in the center to classify hurricanes.
- 44. Extensively hot weather for a prolonged period.
- 49. location’s standard values, including wind speed, rainfall, and temperatures, based on records meteorological compiled for at least 30 years.
