maritime polar (mP)
Give this one a try later!
unstable cold, moist air mass that forms over cold oceans--
Winter and Summer- cold and humid
Meteograms

, 60 hour time cross section of data for a specific surface
reporting station. Plots temp, winds, pressure, clouds and
present weather.

indicates rain
Noctilucent Clouds
Give this one a try later!
known as night clouds or polar mesopheric clouds. Seen at
twilight and only when sun is below horizon. Filled with ice
crystals. Form between 50 degrees and 70 degrees
Panhandle Hook
Give this one a try later!
, A low pressure system that tracks from Dallas, to Memphis to Indianapolis.
Makes a J shape with hook beginning over Texas Panhandle. Causes snow is
Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin.
Contrails
Give this one a try later!
Clouds formed as jets fly through the air. Look like long
streaks.
Wind Chill Factor
Give this one a try later!
Felt temperature on exposed skin. Never higher than the actual
temperature. Only used for temperatures lower that 50 degrees F.
Latent Heat
Give this one a try later!
, Heat entering and changing a phase of liquid. Does not result in a
temperature change that can be recorded.
air pressure
Give this one a try later!
the measure of the force with which air molecules push on a surface
polar easterlies
Give this one a try later!
prevailing winds that blow from east to west between 60 degrees and 90
degrees latitude in both hemispheres
barometer
Give this one a try later!
instrument that measures air pressure, can be mercurial,
aneroid or a barograph
