The magic school bus changes into a hot-air balloon and then an airplane as Ms. Frizzle takes her class on a field trip into the eye of a hurricane for a lesson in meteorology

Revealing what creates those unexpected snow days and the rain at recess, this activity guide goes beyond mere forecasting and reporting to thoroughly address children's curiosities about the world's weather. The process of how wind, sun, and water combine to form certain conditions is explored, and the reasons why weather reaches extreme levels--and what this means for each climate--are also explained in detail. Featuring 25 hands-on projects, this...

Discusses such elements of weather as clouds, wet air, frost, ice, wind, and air pressure. Includes some projects.

Life is delicious in the town of Chewandswallow where it rains soup and juice, snows mashed potatoes, and blows storms of hamburgers--until the weather takes a turn for the worse.

Simple text and photographs introduce beginning readers to the characteristics of snow.

The King, tired of rain, snow, sun, and fog, commands his magicians to make something else come down from the sky, but when oobleck falls, in sticky greenish droplets, Bartholomew Cubbins shames the King and saves the kingdom.

The present study is designed to provide both a method whereby the details of the nonlinear exchange process which occurs in the atmosphere may be considered in a simplified form, and also to indicate from some calculations the complexity of those exchanges.

Wind profiler data collected during FIRE-II, in November 1991, provided an opportunity for detailed observation of the passage of a warm front over Parsons, KS. Surface data, rawinsonde data and satellite observations were used to collaborate and understand the phenomena detected by the wind profiler.

In this study, the RAMS@CSU cloud-resolving mesoscale forecast model is run in a real-time configuration with a sophisticated microphysical package and multiple nested grids, in which the smallest grid has increased vertical resolution in the lower boundary layer. Using this configuration, two specific fog events are simulated in 3-D using initialization data with a horizontal resolution of 40 km.
