1-1001 - 100

All types of weather move in this general direction across the

United States.

1-100A1 - 100

What is from West to East?

1-200

This type of weather front brings a short

period of heavy precipitation.

1-200A1 - 100

What is a cold front?

1-300

This type of front is followed with warm air and winds from

the south-southwest.

1-300A1 - 100

What is a warm front?

1-400When a cold and warm front oppose one

another and end up staying in the same place this front is

formed.

1-400A1 - 100

What is a stationary front?

1-500This type of weather front happens when a cold front overtakes a warm front lifting the

warm air mass off of the ground. Be specific.

1-500A1 - 100

What is a cold type occluded front?

2-1001 - 100

This type of air mass developed in the

Northern Pacific.

2-100A1 - 100

What is maritime polar?

2-200

This air mass developed over The

Gulf of Mexico.

2-200A1 - 100

What is maritime tropical?

2-300

This air mass brings cold, dry air down

from Canada during the spring, summer and fall seasons.

2-300A1 - 100

What is continental polar ?

2-400

These are the properties of a cT air

mass.

2-400A1 - 100

What are hot and dry?

2-500

This air mass brings the most dense air.

2-500A1 - 100

What is continental arctic?

3-1001 - 100

This is a warm air pressure system.

3-100A1 - 100

What is low pressure?

3-200

This pressure system produces wind that

turns counter-clockwise in the

northern hemisphere.

3-200A1 - 100

What is low pressure?

3-300

This ‘effect’ is the reason that wind is deflected around

pressure systems.

3-300A1 - 100

What is the coriolis effect?

3-400

This pressure system has winds that blow out from the center.

3-400A1 - 100

What is high pressure?

3-500

This pressure system brings clear skies with

cool and dry air.

3-500A1 - 100

What is high pressure?

4-1001 - 100

These clouds look like cotton balls and are found just after a

thunderstorm.

4-100A1 - 100

What are cumulus?

4-200This word added to a cloud signifies

precipitation can be found with warm,

stationary, and occluded fronts.

4-200A1 - 100

What is nimbo or nimbus?

4-300

This is a thunderstorm cloud,

found with cold fronts and occluded

fronts.

4-300A1 - 100

What is cumulonimbus?

4-400

As a warm front approaches, this will happen to the altitude

of the clouds.

4-400A1 - 100

What is lower?

4-500

These clouds can be found 24-48 hours

before a warm front.

4-500A1 - 100

What are cirrus or cirrostratus?

5-1001 - 100

As high pressure approaches, this is

what happens to the temperature of the

air.

5-100A1 - 100

What is cool or drop?

5-200

The long form of air pressure ‘1016.4’ converted to short

form is this.

5-200A1 - 100

What is 164?

5-300

When relating station models to the clock,

current air temperature can be found at this

time.

5-300A1 - 100

What is 10 o’clock?

5-400

Winds just after a frontal thunderstorm are likely to blow from this

direction.

5-400A1 - 100

What is south west?

5-500

On June 21-22, this is the angle of

insolation at the Tropic of Cancer.

5-500A1 - 100

What is 90º?

6-1001 - 100

When the dew point temperature and air temperature are very close, this will most

likely occur.

6-100A1 - 100

What is precipitation?

6-200

This type of pressure is associated with all

precipitation.

6-200A1 - 100

What is low pressure?

6-300

This latitude has the highest surface

temperature due to the high angle of insolation

year round.

6-300A

1 - 100

What is 0º?

6-400

This process involving mountains causes more

precipitation on the windward side of a

mountain.

6-400A1 - 100

What is orographic lifting?

6-500

This is the temperature at which

clouds form.

6-500A1 - 100

What is the dew point temperature?

Draw the low pressure, cold front ,

and warm front on the map.
