4. Why is the Weather
different.
Prevailing winds are the dominant
wind direction in an area. The
temperature of the wind and the
amount of rainfall partly depend on
where the air has come from. Looking
at where the air has come from helps
to explain the characteristics of the
weather. A large body of air with
similar characteristics is called an air
mass.
