| 46. What is a cold front? | a cold air mass moving in to replace a warm air mass |
| 47. What is a warm front? | a warm air mass moving in to replace a cold air mass, often produces rain |
| 48. What is a thunderstorm? | a storm where rising warm, moist air creates lightning, which heats the air and makes it expand quickly, producing thunder |
| 49. What is a hurricane? | powerful storm that forms over warm tropical waters, where rising low-pressure, moist air creates strong winds and swirling clouds |
| 50. What is a meteorologist? | someone who studies the atmosphere and predicts weather |
| 51. What is a radar? | a system used to collect weather information, by sending signals that get deflected showing precipitation |
| 52. What is precipitation? | any form of water that falls from clouds and reaches the ground |
| 53. What is air density? | |
| 54. What are global winds? | winds that blow steadily across the Earth in predictable patterns, caused by the uneven heating of the planet and the rotation |
| 55. What is rain? | liquid precipitation that fall from clouds |
| 56. What is snow? | precipitation in the form of ice crystals that fall from clouds |
| 57. What is hail? | large clumps of ice that fall from clouds |
| 58. What is freezing rain? | rain that freezes when it hits the ground or other surfaces |
| 59. What is a tornado? | a violently spinning column of air that stretches from a thunderstorm cloud down to the ground |
