Weather Tools & Reporting

I am the weather tool that measures the amount of precipitation in inches or centimeters.  What am I?

• barometer
• anemometer
• rain gauge
• thermometer

I am the weather tool used to measure wind direction or the direction from which the wind is blowing.  What am I?

• weather/wind vane
• anemometer
• barometer
• sling psychrometer

Weather conditions and patterns can be predicted based on weather data collected from various sources.  I am the source used to see cloud patterns and movement.  What am I?

• isobars
• radar
• satellite
• isotherms

I am the weather tool used to measure air pressure in inches of mercury or millibars (mb). What am I?

• barometer
• anemometer
• sling psychrometer
• rain gauge

I am a type of weather map that  provides information like (cloud cover, temperature, wind direction and speed, precipitation, or barometric pressure) from specific locations.  What am I?

• isotherm
• isobar
• weather map
• station model

I am the source used to detect cloud cover, rainfall, or storm location, intensity, and movement, and the potential for severe weather.  What am I?

• isotherm
• radar
• satellite
• isobars

Weather maps can help predict weather patterns.  I am the lines that indicate high or low pressure systems.  What am I?

• isotherms
• isobars
• radar
• satellite

I am the weather tool that measures relative humidity (the amount of water vapor in the air).  What am I?

• anemometer
• barometer
• sling psychrometer
• wind vane

Weather maps can help predict weather patterns.  I am the lines that indicate movement of air masses and fronts, or temperature .  What am I?

• isotherms
• radar
• satellite
• isobars

I am the weather tool used to measure wind speed in miles per hour.  What am I?

• anemometer
• barometer
• thermometer
• sling psychrometer
