It is the gaseous
layer that
blankets Earth.
Almost all weather occurs
in its lowest layer, the
troposphere. It contains
about 99% of the
atmosphere's water
vapor.

It is what you
see outside on
any particular day.

Predicting Weather
Meteorologist
Weather Forecast
They study Earth's atmosphere
to predict and understand the
weather.
It is an estimate of future
weather conditions.
It depends on several factors:
wind direction, temperature, air
pressure, etc.

It occurs when liquid or frozen water forms in the
clouds and falls back to Earth. It includes rain,
snow, hail, and sleet.
Precipitation
Air pressure depends on the temperature and how tightly packed air molecules are.
It refers to the weight of the air molecules pressing down on us.
Air Pressure
How are air pressure and
precipitation connected?
Low-pressure system is
often associated with more
precipitation.
High-pressure system is
generally associated with
calm, fair weather.
Look out the
window now!
How's the weather outside?
Did the weather forecast today
mention a low-pressure system?
How about a high-pressure one?
Air pressure
and the amount
of precipitation
are related.
Weather is the
condition of the
atmosphere at a
given time and
location.
All weather occurs
in Earth's
atmosphere.
Precipitation,
air pressure,
temperature,
cloudiness, and wind
conditions affect
weather.

hurricane came?
Looking Back
Recall what happened when
Hurricane Ian hit Florida in
September 2022.
