Air moss - a body of air that has the same temperature and humidity ^ throughout 1 i / Humidity - the amount of water vapor in the air / - a boundary between two unlike air masses Warm front - the leading edge of a moving mass of warm air Cold front - the leading edge of a moving mass of cold air •_-» Stationary front - when a cold and a warm air mass meet, but neither moves Occluded front - when two cold air masses squeeze together and push warm air up High-pressure zone - an area of the atmosphere that has high pressure, generally having clear skies Low-pressure zone - an area of the atmosphere that has low . pressure, generally having cloudy skies Hurricane - a large rotating windstorm with a calm central eye and winds greater than 74 mph Tornado - a violent windstorm characterized by a twisting, funnelshaped cloud Blizzard - a strong winter storm that brings high winds, very cold temperatures, and heavy snow Cumulus cloud - mid-level, puffy clouds Cirrus cloud - high-level, wispy clouds . Weather Vocabulary Atmosphere - the layer of air that surrounds the Earth , Meteorologist - a person who studies the weather Forecast - a prediction of the weather conditions for a given area and a given time period Barometer - a device used to measure air pressure Rain gauge - a device used to measure the precipitation in a given area /Weather vane - a device used to determine wind direction . . , . ' Anemometer - a device used to measure wind speed / Hygrometer - a device used to measure humidity xPrecipitation - any liquid or solid form of water that falls from the atmosphere, for example, rain, snow, sleet, or hail . Evaporation - the process of changing from a liquid state to a gas Condensation - the process of changing from a gas state to a liquid state Runoff -water that runs over the land to waterways, not being absorbed into the soil or evaporated into the air ""— Climate - the average weather for an area over a long period of time ) Weather - atmospheric conditions for a specific time and place Air pressure - the force of air pressing on a surface
