Double DEATH Jeopardy

What is the wind direction

at city A?

From the NE

Which city is experiencing a slow, steady rain? Albany or Watertown

What is the lowest possible

air pressure shown on this

map (to nearest whole

number) ?

993mb

If the arrows represent surface wind direction, what is the most likely time of day represented by the diagram?

Evening or Night

Toward the NW

What is the most probable direction

of travel of this storm

What is the relative

humidity at this location?

About 34%

What was the pressure

at this location

three hours ago?

1009.9 mb

If the present trend continues, what will be the

pressure, in inches of Hg, at this location 3

hours from now?

29.36 inches

DAILY DAILY DOUBLEDOUBLE

14°C

What is the wet bulb temperature at this location in degrees Celsius?

What kind of air mass is

represented by this station

model?

mP or mA

According to the data in the graph above, on which day were the coldest

temperatures recorded?

Sunday

According to the graph above, on which day(s) were the highest air pressures

probably recorded?

Friday

What is the dewpoint temp. in °F at 11pm?

44°F

Explain the differences in the

temperature curves of these 2 cities

City A is in the northern

hemisphere. City B is in the southern

hemisphere.

What variable is represented by X?

Relative humidity

Which US city will this hurricane most likely hit next?

New Orleans

DAILY DAILY DOUBLEDOUBLE

What is the probable

wind direction at

location X?

From the northeast

Location B is at an altitude of 7 miles. What is the dewpoint temperature?

-55°C

What is the air temperature in °F at city D?

Whatever the thermometer says!

Why is it that no precipitation may be falling from a cloud made of water droplets or ice crystals?

The droplets or crystals are too small to fall.

Which location might be

New York City?

Location C

Why is the rate of temperature

change less above 3000m than it is

below this altitude?

Energy added to the air by the condensation of water vapor (540

cal/g) slows the cooling rate.

Why did this hurricane change

direction on Sept. 18th?

On that date it crossed into the prevailing southwesterly wind belt.

What variable is represented

by ‘X’ on the graph?

Precipitation

The relative humidity in the tank is 100%.

Suggest a possible reason

why no condensation has occurred.

The air was filtered so it contains no condensation nuclei.
