  2. Water in the air condenses when the air is cooled to the point of this

  3. What is saturation?

  4. What water vapor in the air eventually falls to the Earth as

  5. What is precipitation?

  6. What cloud droplets that fall in temperatures above freezing fall as

  7. What is rain?

  8. What forms instead of rain when the air temperature is below freezing

  9. What is snow?

  10. Snowflakes that melt as they fall then refreeze form this

  11. What is sleet?

  12. The properties of this are determined by the part of the Earth’s surface over which it forms

  13. What is an air mass?

  14. The slope of a warm air mass

  15. What is gentle?

  16. The kind of front that forms when a warm air mass is forced up over a cold air mass

  17. What is warm?

  18. The kind of air mass that develops over Northern Canada

  19. What is cold and dry?

  20. The kind of front that forms when two cold air masses merge and the warm air mass between them is forced to rise

  21. What is occluded?

  22. A large and billowy cloud

  23. What is cumulus?

  24. When water does this in the atmosphere, it forms clouds

  25. What is condenses?

  26. When air near the ground is cooled to the saturation point, this forms

  27. What is fog?

  28. Water that condenses around dust particles in the atmosphere forms these

  29. What are cloud droplets?

  30. The type of clouds that form near the ground

  31. What is stratus?

  32. An instrument used to measure temperature

  33. What is a thermometer?

  34. Sensitive instruments used to measure atmospheric pressure

  35. What are barometers?

  36. The measure of the amount of water at a particular temperature

  37. What is the relative humidity?

  38. An instrument which measures relative humidity

  39. What is a psychrometer?

  40. The kind of weather that high pressure usually brings

  41. What is clear?

  42. The amount of water vapor in the air

  43. What is humidity?

  44. How a great deal of water gets into the atmosphere

  45. What is evaporates?

  46. The temperature at which air is saturated and condensation takes place

  47. What is dew point?

  48. The boundary between air masses

  49. What is a front?

  50. The kind of front that forms when a cold air mass moves underneath a warm air mass
