- 9. Kinds of Clouds •Stratus clouds - the indicate light rainy weather - can be seen early in the morning or late in afternoon
- 10. Kinds of Clouds •Cirrus clouds - are thin , curly , and feathery - they are formed high up in the sky where air is thin and wind does not blow too much
- 11. Kinds of Clouds •Cirrus clouds - the water vapor rises straight up high into the sky to form small lumps of clouds that look like feathers - they are formed when there is not much moisture in air
- 12. Kinds of Clouds •Cumulus clouds - are heaped and fluffy like cotton - they are formed when the wind moves straight up in the sky
- 13. Kinds of Clouds •Cumulus clouds - generally indicate fair weather but when they become too big and grayish, they may bring bad weather characterized by lightning , thunder, and strong rain.
- 14. Kinds of Clouds •Stratus clouds - are spread out in the sky - they are formed when the wind moves horizontally, usually cover a large area,

- 22. The water cycleaffects both climate and weather
- 24. • When cloudscover the entire sky , the temperature directly below the clouds is lower. It is cooler because clouds reflect the heat of the sun in outer space •Clouds protect us from sun’s radiation by covering the space above us.
- 25. Precipitation • Water thatfalls from the clouds • Air temperature determines the form of precipitation that falls • 4 main types of Precipitation: Rain, Sleet, Snow and Hail
- 26.
- 27. Different kinds ofprecipitation • Snow , sleet and hail – – They are solid Droplets of water in the clouds become solid when the temperature of the air is very low and water becomes frozen
- 29. Different kinds ofprecipitation • Drizzle or shower
- 30. Different kinds ofprecipitation • Thunderstorm – raindrops are big and they pour for about an hour - usually accompanied by lightning and thunder

- 34. Instruments used tomeasure weather condition • Rain gauge - a collection of pail with a ruler to measure the depth of rain water.
- 35. Instruments used tomeasure weather condition
- 36. • A psychrometeris used to measure humidity. It has two bulbs in order to function properly. The two bulbs are wet and dry. The temperature difference between the two is noted.
- 37. • An Anemometeris an instrument which is used to measure the speed or force of wind and is mostly found in weather stations. This term was derived from a Greek word known as 'enomos' which means 'wind'.
- 38. • Years agofarmers would use the wind vane to keep an eye on the winds direction. If the wind was blowing strong from a certain direction it would mean rain was on it's way. At small public airports they have a wind sock flying so a pilot can tell how the wind is blowing to prepare for a landing/takeoff.

Editor's Notes
- #23 The water cycle is powered from solar energy. The sun evaporates water from the entire Earth - 86% of the evaporation on Earth comes from the oceans. Evaporation cools the atmosphere and planets. The water cycle involves the evaporation, condensation and precipitation of water and all of these events shape the weather on a day to day basis. Evaporation and precipitation are ways in which water moves through the water cycle on any given day during a weather event. During certain times of year and certain seasons, it might rain often causing plants, soils, rivers, and lakes to absorb more water. During other times of year, hot, dry weather can lead to water evaporation causing plants and soil to dry out and streams and rivers to have lower elevations, but over the course of a year or several years, a balance occurs in the water cycle so the amount of water entering the system is equal to the amount exiting. This balance in the water cycle helps stabilize the climate. Climate is affected by the natural fluctuation of the balance of water entering and exiting the system on a global scale.
