Weather is the condition of the atmosphere at a given time. Climate is the average weather over long periods. Temperature is measured with a thermometer. Rainfall is measured in millimeters. Snow forms when air is below freezing. Hailstones are balls of ice that fall during storms. Fog is a cloud at ground level. Dew forms when surfaces cool at night. Frost forms when dew freezes. Clouds are made of tiny water droplets. Cumulus clouds are fluffy and white. Stratus clouds are flat and gray. Cirrus clouds are thin and wispy. Cumulonimbus clouds bring thunderstorms. Rainbows form when sunlight refracts through raindrops. Double rainbows occur when light reflects twice in a droplet. Lightning is a great spark of electricity. Thunder is the sound caused by lightning. Hurricanes form over warm ocean water. Tornadoes are rotating columns of air. Blizzards are snowstorms with strong winds. Heatwaves are prolonged periods of high temperatures. Cold snaps are sudden drops in temperature. Droughts are long periods without rainfall. Floods occur when rivers or rain overflow. Monsoons bring seasonal rains. Typhoons are hurricanes in the western Pacific. Cyclones are low-pressure weather systems. Wind is moving air caused by pressure differences. Breezes are gentle winds. Gales are strong winds. Gusts are sudden bursts of wind. The Buford scale measures wind strength. Air pressure is measured with a barometer. Low pressure often brings rain. High pressure usually brings clear skies. The jet stream is a fast-flowing air current. Trade winds blow toward the equator. Polar winds blow from the north and south poles. Sea breezes blow from the ocean to land. Land breezes blow from land to ocean. Dust storms occur in dry regions. Sandstorms happen in deserts. Ice storms coat surfaces with freezing rain. Sleet is partially frozen rain. Drizzle is very light rain. Showers are short bursts of rain. Downpours are heavy rains. Mist is lighter than fog. Smog is fog mixed with pollution. The water cycle drives weather. Evaporation turns water into vapor. Condensation forms clouds. Precipitation returns water to Earth. The ozone layer affects sunlight. Sunlight is strongest at noon. Sunrise and sunset times vary with seasons. Equinoxes mark equal day and night. Solstices mark the longest and shortest days. Seasons are caused by Earth's tilt. Summer is the warmest season. Winter is the coldest season. Spring brings gradual warming. Autumn brings cooling temperatures. The tropics have warm weather year-round. Polar regions have extreme cold. Temperate regions have four seasons. Deserts are very dry with little rainfall. Rainforests are hot and wet all year. The Sahara Desert is the hottest desert. Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth. The highest recorded temperature was 56. 7 degrees Celsius in Death Valley. The lowest recorded temperature was negative 89. 2 degrees Celsius in Antarctica. Mount Washington in the U. S. Has strong winds. The Amazon Basin receives heavy rainfall. The Atacama Desert is extremely dry. The Indian monsoon is vital for crops. El Niño warms ocean waters. La Niña cools ocean waters. Jet streams affect airplane flights. Weather satellites observe the atmosphere. Doppler radar tracks storms. Meteorologists study weather patterns. Forecasts predict future weather. Forecasts are not always accurate. Long-range forecasts are less precise. Farmers depend on seasonal weather. Fishing depends on tides and winds. Air travel is affected by storms. Road travel is affected by snow and ice. Ships use forecasts to avoid storms. Space launches need clear weather. Lightning can strike tall buildings. Lightning is hotter than the sun's surface. Snowflakes have six sides. No two snowflakes are exactly alike. Hail can damage crops. Rain helps plants grow. Wind helps disperse seeds.
