Learning Standard:Today I am learning about weather instruments because they are used to forecast the weather.

  5. The largest Christian country in Asia, but also it is the world's third largest Catholic Nation. Climate is tropical, with March to May (summer) being the hottest months.

  13. Sling Psychrometer • Measures the relative humidity • Two thermometers are used in a sling psychrometer. • Wet the cloth of one of the thermometers and swing the psychrometer around a few times. • Water evaporates from the cloth, causing the temperatures on that thermometer to be lower than the other.

  14. Isotherms and Isobars

  15. Drawing Isobars • Caution: • You can’t cross lines • You can’t go in front of lower numbers
