Weather
There are many different types of weather. Sunny, snow, wind,
rain and hail are some of them.
The weather often controls many things we do. It effects what
we wear, activities we can do and what we might eat.
A person who studies weather is called a meteorologist. A
meteorologist makes predictions about the weather in a certain
area.
The climate of an area is quite different. The climate is the
average weather conditions in different parts of the world.
If we want to show people what the weather will be like
tomorrow we use weather symbols.
Look at these weather symbols.
