  1. Bell Ringer What type of clouds do you see outside right now? (you may use the notes from yesterday)

  2. I can describe the different cloud types. • I can record the weather accurately. • I can show the different types of weather.

  3. Yesterday • What did we do???????

  4. Yesterday • Cloud types • Today—types of weather

  5. Clouds are made of liquid water • The water is in very small drops • Some of these collide and combine to form larger drops • The cloud becomes thicker and grayer. • Soon the drops are too heavy for the wind to keep them in the air. • They fall to the ground as precipitation.

  6. raindrops • When air temperature is warm; water vapor forms liquid precipitation, or raindrops.

  7. Solid precipitation • When the air temperature is below the freezing point of water, water vapor forms solid precipitation. • Sleet • Hail • Snow

  8. Sleet • When raindrops fall through a layer of very cold air near the ground, they freeze, changing into tiny bits of ice called SLEET.

  9. Hail • Hail can form in severe thunderstorm clouds when raindrops in the cloud collide with bits of ice. The drops freeze, forming hailstones. • Wind will then push the hailstones back up into the cloud and the hailstones grow larger. • Softball size

  10. Snow • Snow forms when air temperature is close or below freezing. • It is so cold it turns from water vapor to solid crystal.

  11. Measuring Precipitation • Unit of depth (inches) • Rain gauge: is a container that has a scale marked on it in millimeters or inches. • Refer to pages 382/383

  12. Recap today so far………… • Tomorrow we will “make hail” in our classroom.

  13. Weather Recording Sheets • Starting tonight watch the weather • Internet • TV • Newspaper • Complete the chart for the next 7 days • Chart due on the 8th day ( I will let you know the day before.

  14. Draw a picture • Draw a picture of your choice. • Include the 4 types of precipitation (solid and liquid) (labeled) • Include at least 1 cloud type (labeled)
