1.
The weight of the air pushing down on Earth
2.
Large bodies of air that have uniform temperature, humidity, and pressure
3.
Forms when a colder air masses replace cold air masses
4.
Forms when warmer air moves toward colder air, and rises and glides above cold air moves
5.
Cold winds that blow from east to west near North and South pole
6.
Steady winds that flow from east to west between 80 degrees North latitude and 30 degrees latitude
7.
Measures the amount of head in the atmosphere known a temperature
8.
Earth's rotation causes moving air and water to appear to curve to the right in the Northern hemisphere and to the left in the Southern hemisphere
9.
Measures the direction of the blowing
10.
Steady winds that flow from the west to the east between latitudes 30 degrees North, 60 degrees North, 30 degrees South, and 60 degrees South
11.
Measures the speed of the wind
12.
Measures the air pressure
13.
Measures the percentage of the water vapor in the air known as humidity
14.
Measures the amount of precipitation that has fallen
15.
Specialized type of radar that can detect precipitation as well as the movement of small particles, which can be used to approximate wind speed.
16.
Forms when a cold front meets a warm front but neither of them have enough force to move the other
