Weather Data Analysis and Patterns

The video tutorial covers lesson 6.1 on weather patterns, focusing on identifying and analyzing patterns in weather data. It explains how meteorologists use past and current data to predict weather, and guides students through analyzing weather maps and symbols. The lesson includes procedures for data analysis, emphasizing the importance of detailed observations before, during, and after a storm. Students are encouraged to reflect on surprising data patterns and complete related activities.
