Use the data on the weather map from July 4, 2006 to create a weather map and a weather forecast for the next day. Include the locations of fronts, highs, lows, and precipitation.
Use these forecasting tips to create the weather maps:
If there is a lot of water vapor in the air and a cold front is approaching, precipitation is most likely on its way, too.
A change in air pressure means there will most likely be a change in weather. Falling air pressure generally means rain. Rising air pressure generally means clearing skies.
Air masses and fronts generally move west to east.
Use these tips to create a written forecast:
Write as if you are a weather forecaster explaining the forecast to a viewing audience.
Explain the weather maps.
Describe changes in pressure, temperature, and precipitation.
