Mountains were formed when the tectonic plates of Earth shook the landscape.

The land changed from just flat plains to flat plains and mountains.

Mountains slow down the wind when there’s high wind pressures

Clouds are Made OF TINY PIECES OF WATER, DUST AND ICE

WATER CYCLES FORM CLOUDS FROM CONDENSATION, EVAPORATION, AND PRECIPITATION.

RAIN IS MADE WHEN ALL THE WATER DROPS COME TOGETHER TO MAKE RAIN

SNOW IS MADE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 32’F AND ICE AND DIRT COMBIND

THERE ARE 3 DIFFERENT LEVELS OF CLOUDS

THE HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS ARE CIRRUS, CIRROSTRATUS, AND CIRROCUMULUS

MID-LEVEL CLOUDS ARE NIMBOSTRATUS, ALTOCUMULUS, AND ALTOSTRATUS

LOW LEVEL CLOUDS ARE CUMULUS, STRATUS, STRATOCUMULUS, AND CUMULONIMBUS.

WIND IS MADE WHEN PRESSURE IN THE ATMOSPHERE BURSTS

HIGH AIR PRESSURE MAKES THE WIND BLOW QUICKLY

LOW AIR PRESSURE MAKES WIND BLOW SLOWLY

THE WIND PUSHES THE CLOUDS TOGETHER AND THEN THE CLOUDS MIGHT RAIN OR SNOW OR HAIL

WEATHER IS MADE WHEN WIND, CLOUDS, AND HEAT ARE TOGETHER

HAIL IS MADE WHEN WATER VAPOR RISES HIGH IN THE AIR AND FREEZES INTO HAIL.

LIGHTNING IS MADE WHEN PIECES OF ICE HIT EACH OTHER

ELECTRIC CHARGES FORM AND WHEN THEY BUILD UP LIGHTNING STRIKES

HURRICANES FORM OVER WATER THAT IS 80'F AND THE WIND IS COOL

TORNADOS FORM WHEN WARM AND COLD AIR COMBINED

THESE STORMS ARE DESTRUCTIVE.

WEATHER PATTERNS CHANGE TO CREATE THE SEASONS

JET STREAMS ARE MADE IN THE TROPOSPHERE

JET STREAMS ARE LIKE RIVERS IN THE ATMOSPHERE

JET STREAMS ARE 7 MILES FROM THE GROUND

JET STREAMS MOVE WITH THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH
