What to Focus On
- Weather is the state of the Earth's atmosphere at a particular time and place.
- The troposphere is the layer closest to Earth's surface where weather occurs.
- Weather has five elements: temperature, precipitation, atmospheric pressure, wind, and humidity.
- Temperature shows how hot or cold the air is.
- Thermometers are used to measure temperature.
- 15°C is the same as 59°F.
- Precipitation includes rain, snow, sleet, and hail.
- Sleet is frozen or partly frozen rain.
- Hail is a form of ice that falls like rain.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
