Air mass:body of air with the same temperature and humidity throughout
air pressure gravity: pulling air to the earth's surface creating pressure
barometer: measures air pressure
cirrus cloud: feathery cloud formed at high altitude
cold front: cold air meets and replaces hot air
Coriolis effect: shift of any path with water or an object moving above the surface of the earth due to the rotation of the earth
cumulonimbus: large cloud that produces rain and thunder storms
cumulus:cloud puffy clouds with flat bottoms (cotton ball clouds
cyclone: area of low pressure containing rising warm air
Greenhouse Effect: heat trapping process in which heat energy is trapped by the earth's atmosphere and can not return to space
isobar line: on a weather map connecting location with the same barometric pressure
Meteorologist: a scientist who studies the weather
precipitation: process in which water returns to earth in the form of rain, snow, sleet or hail
Relative Humidity: percentage of moisture in the air that holds relative to the amount it can hold at a particular temperature
Climate: average over a month
Weather: daily conditions
