Weather patterns change regularly due to seasons. The four seasons - spring, summer, fall, and winter - each bring different weather conditions depending on how warm or cold the air is. Weather can change daily as well, impacted by temperature, wind, precipitation, and the water cycle of evaporation and condensation. Understanding weather is important as it affects humans, plants and animals.

Weather- Water Cycle
The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Water evaporates from bodies of water and soil due to heat from the sun, rises into the atmosphere and cools to form clouds, and falls back to Earth as precipitation in forms such as rain, snow, or hail. The water then either runs back into bodies of water through runoff, or sinks into the ground to become groundwater, completing the cycle.
What's the weather like?
The document discusses different weather conditions and asks the question "What's the weather like?". It lists common weather types such as sunny, snowing, windy, raining, foggy and cloudy. It repeats the question "What's the weather like?" multiple times and provides examples of answering with today's weather conditions.

It then explains that the earth's rotation around the sun and on its axis causes the four seasons: summer, autumn, winter, and spring. Each season is then briefly characterized in terms of temperature and weather patterns.
seasons.ppt
A season is one of four periods in a year defined by changes in temperature, weather, and daylight hours. Seasons are caused by the earth's position relative to the sun, changing as the earth moves closer or farther from the sun. However, places near the equator do not experience seasons because their position does not change relative to the sun. The four seasons are autumn, winter, spring, and summer, each with characteristic weather patterns and events.

The four seasons are autumn, winter, spring, and summer, each with characteristic weather patterns and temperatures.
pd7 group #2
The document discusses several key weather factors including air temperature, wind, humidity, and relative humidity. It explains that the sun provides Earth's energy and drives weather patterns by evaporating water into the atmosphere which forms clouds and eventually falls back as rain or snow. Different factors like air temperature, which influences daily activities depending on how rapidly or slowly air molecules move, wind which results from air moving between high and low pressure systems, and various humidity measures are described as influencing weather conditions.
Aisha.ppt
There are four seasons in a year - autumn, winter, spring, and summer. Each season lasts about three months and is characterized by changes in temperature, weather, and daylight hours. The seasons are caused by the earth's position in relation to the sun, with the seasons changing as the earth moves closer or farther from the sun. Each season has distinguishing features, such as autumn leaves changing color, winter being the coldest with snow, summer being the warmest for swimming, and spring bringing rain, flowers, and warmer weather.
Water cycle
The document summarizes the water cycle, which is the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. The water cycle involves the processes of evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and collection in rivers, lakes, oceans, and groundwater. Water can transition between liquid, solid, and gas states as it moves through the cycle, which is driven by energy from the sun and gravity.
CLIMATE AND WEATHER.pptx
The document discusses weather and climate. It defines weather as being determined by temperature, precipitation, and wind. It describes the different types of precipitation and how wind is moving air. It then explains the four seasons - spring, summer, autumn, and winter - and the typical temperatures of each. The text goes on to define climate as the typical weather of a region over a long period of time, usually at least 30 years. It describes the different climate zones of the world, including polar, tropical, and temperate zones.
How can weather be predicted
The document discusses how weather is predicted by analyzing large bodies of air called air masses. There are different types of air masses - cold/warm and dry/moist - that form over land or water and influence weather conditions. Weather maps use symbols to show features like air pressure, temperature, wind and precipitation across an area based on data collected from weather instruments at stations. Analyzing air masses, fronts where they meet, and weather maps helps predict changes in weather conditions.
