Notes From Class 3/16/18

Weather
Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a specific time and place. It describes conditions such as:

· Air pressure
· Wind
· Temperature
· Humidity

Weather is created by the uneven heating of Earth’s atmosphere, so it is a result of heat and Earth’s air and water.

Temperature
Air is made up of molecules that are always moving randomly so Temperature is the measure of the average amount of motion of molecules.

· Higher the temperature = faster moving molecules = Warm
· Lower the temperature = slower moving molecules =Cold

Measured with a thermometer

Wind
Wind is air moving in a specific direction. Wind occurs because air moves from regions of high pressure to regions of low
pressure.

· Sun warms the air → air expands → air becomes Less dense → air rises = Low air pressure
· Cool air → air becomes More dense → air sinks = High air pressure

Instruments used To measure Wind Speed and Wind Direction
Wind Direction - wind vane ( has an arrow which points in the direction from which the wind is blowing.
Wind Speed – Uses an Anemometer – Rotating cups that spin when the wind is strong.


Humidity
Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air.

Warmer the air = more water vapor = faster moving molecules = less sticking together
Cooler the air = less water vapor = slower moving molecules = more sticking together = water droplets = Condensation
= saturated


Relative Humidity
Relative Humidity – is a measure of the amount of water vapor present in the air compared to the amount needed for saturation
at a specific temperature (condensation)

Ex) if the relative humidity is 50% this means that the air contains 50% of the water need for the air to be saturated.


Dew Point
Dew Point - is the temperature at which air is saturated and condensation forms.
