City A, because it has cold temperatures, strong winds, heavy snow, and low visibility.

City B, because it has snow and moderate wind.

City C, because it is the coldest and has clear skies.

City D, because it has strong winds and snow, even though visibility is high.

Two cities, Orlando and Seattle, have recorded their average monthly rainfall over the past four months. The table below shows the data: Based on the data, which city is more likely to experience a drought, and what evidence supports your conclusion?

Orlando, because it has received very little rainfall over several months.

Seattle, because it has consistent rainfall each month.

Seattle, because it has more rainfall than Orlando.

Orlando, because it has unpredictable rainfall patterns.

Different temperatures and high moisture

A town in the Midwest is experiencing warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico moving northward. At the same time, cool, dry air is coming down from Canada. Meteorologists notice strong winds at different altitudes moving in different directions. Based on this information, which of the following best explains why a tornado might form?

Warm, humid air and cool, dry air creating strong wind shears, going different speeds and directions.

Warm, humid air creating thunderstorms with strong wind updrafts.

Warm, moist humid air evaporating with low pressure creating large cumulonimbus clouds.

Cool, dry air evaporating into a large cumulonimbus cloud with low wind speeds.

What weather conditions are needed to cause a hail thunderstorm?

Updraft that reaches a freezing atmosphere

Low ground temperatures to freeze rain

What prevents hail storms from forming in a thunderstorm?

Shorter cumulonimbus clouds and high ground temperatures

Taller cumulonimbus clouds and low ground temperatures

During which seasons and under what conditions is hail most likely to form?

Hail forms in summer and spring when thunderstorm updrafts freeze water droplets into layered ice in the clouds.

Hail forms in winter and fall when snowflakes freeze before reaching the ground.

Hail forms in winter and fall when cold air turns rain into ice before it hits the surface of the Earth.

Hail forms in summer and spring when clouds release ice crystals that start to melt before reaching the ground.
