Question

1) In the surface analysis chart above, the weather at the station in N.E. Colorado is: Temperature is 21 deg. F, wind chill is 16 deg F, winds are out of the north at 15kts, sky is partly cloudy. True or False

2) The barometric pressure around the high pressure system over the southeast U.S.is 1028 inches of mercury and the pressure system is moving in an eastward direction. (use surface weather map in question above) True or False

3) Tornadoes typically form when a mass of cold, dry air blows in over a mass of warm, wet air near the ground OR in areas of wind shear. True or False

4) Satellites detect relative heights of cloud by sensing different levels of long wave (infrared) radiation emitted from clouds; i.e., colder clouds are normally higher in the air, and radiate less long wave energy than warmer, lower clouds. True or false

5) There are three stages to the growth of a thunderstorm: 1. cumulus stage, 2. mature stage, and 3. gust front stage (or dissipating stage). True or False

Explanation / Answer

True. True. Explanation: This can be seen in the right side circled portion in the drawing. True. True. Explanation: The more higher the cloud is , the lesser is the length of the wave it reflects back to the satellite. True.
