Answer 1

Hi!
1) Clear skies: Cloud cover (also known as cloudiness, cloudage or cloud amount) refers to the fraction of the sky obscured by clouds when observed from a particular location. When there are no clouds obscuring the sky, it is termed as Clear skies/ sky.

2) Degrees: Celsius is, or relates to, the Celsius temperature scale (previously known as the centigrade scale). The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as serve as unit increment to indicate a temperature interval (a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty). “Celsius” is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701 – 1744), who developed a similar temperature scale two years before his death.

3)Front: A weather front, or surface analysis, provides a view of weather elements over a specified geographical area at a specified time.
Fronts in meteorology are the leading edges of air masses with different density (e.g., air temperature and/or humidity). When a front passes over an area, it is marked by changes in temperature, moisture, wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure, and often a change in the precipitation pattern. Cold fronts are often closely associated with low pressure systems, normally lying at the leading edge of high pressure systems and, in the case of the polar front, at approximately the equatorward edge of the high-level polar jet. Fronts are generally guided by winds aloft, but they normally move at lesser speeds. In the northern hemisphere, they usually travel from some west to east direction (even though they can move in a more north-south direction as well). Movement is largely due to the pressure gradient force (due to horizontal differences in atmospheric pressure) and the Coriolis effect, caused by the earth spinning about its axis. Frontal zones can be contorted by geographic features like mountains and large bodies of water

4)High Clouds:High clouds (Family A)
These generally form above 16,500 feet (5,000 m), in the cold region of the troposphere. However, in Polar regions, they may form as low as 10,000 ft (3,048 m). They are denoted by the prefix cirro- or cirrus. At this altitude, water almost always freezes so clouds are composed of ice crystals. The clouds tend to be wispy, and are often transparent.

Clouds in Family A include:

Cirrus (Ci)
Cirrus uncinus
Cirrus Kelvin-Helmholtz Colombia
Cirrostratus (Cs)
Cirrocumulus (Cc)
Pileus
Contrail, a long thin cloud which develops as the result of the passage of an aircraft at high altitudes.

5)Low clouds: Low clouds (Family C)

Low cloudsThese are found up to 6,500 feet (2,000 m) and include the stratus (dense and grey). When stratus clouds contact the ground, they are called fog.

Clouds in Family C include:

Stratus (St)
Nimbostratus (Ns)
Cumulus humilis (Cu)
Cumulus mediocris (Cu)
Stratocumulus (Sc)

6)Sandstorm: A dust storm (or sandstorm in some contexts) is a meteorological phenomenon common in dry, arid and semi-arid regions. Such a storm is usually the result of convection currents created by intense heating of the ground. These currents then carry sand over large distances.

7)Synoptic Map:The synoptic scale in meteorology (also known as large scale or cyclonic scale) is a horizontal length scale of the order of 1000 kilometres (about 620 miles) or more [1]. This corresponds to a horizontal scale typical of mid-latitude depressions. Most high and low pressure areas seen on weather maps are synoptic-scale systems. The word synoptic is derived from the Greek word sunoptikos meaning seen together.

8) Temperature: Temperature is a physical property of a system that underlies the common notions of hot and cold; something that is hotter has the greater temperature. Temperature is one of the principal parameters of thermodynamics. The temperature of a system is related to the average energy of microscopic motions in the system. For a solid, these microscopic motions are principally the vibrations of the constituent atoms about their sites in the solid. For an ideal monatomic gas, the microscopic motions are the translational motions of the constituent gas particles.

9) Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone is a warm storm system fueled by thunderstorms near its center. It feeds on the heat released when moist air rises and the water vapor in it condenses. The term describes the storm's origin in the tropics and its cyclonic nature, which means that its circulation is counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. Tropical cyclones are distinguished from other cyclonic windstorms such as nor'easters, European windstorms, and polar lows by the heat mechanism that fuels them, which makes them "warm core" storm systems. Depending on their location and strength, there are various terms by which tropical cyclones are known, such as hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, and tropical depression.

10) Weather vane: A weather vane, also called a wind vane, is a movable device attached to an elevated object such as a roof for showing the direction of the wind. Very often these are in the shape of cockerels and are called weather cocks. Arrows are also popular, but a multitude of designs have been used.

11) Wind Direction: A windsock is a large, conical, tube designed to indicate wind direction and relative wind speed. Windsocks typically are used at airports and in chemical plants in which there is risk of gaseous leakage. They are sometimes located alongside highways at windy locations.

Wind direction is the opposite of the direction in which the windsock is pointing (note that wind directions are conventionally specified as being the compass point from which the wind originates; so a windsock pointing due north indicates a southerly wind). Windspeed is indicated by the windsock's angle relative to the mounting pole; in low winds, the windsock droops; in high winds it flies horizontally. Per FAA standards referenced below, a 15 knot (17mph) wind will fully extend the windsock. A 3 knot (3.5mph) breeze will cause the windsock to orient itself into the wind.

12) Wind speed: Wind speed is the speed of movement of air relative to a fixed point on the earth. Wind is a term applied when talking about the movement of air from one place to the next.

Wind speed usually means the movement of air in an outside environment, but the speed of movement of air inside is important in many areas, including weather forecasting, aircraft and maritime operations, building and civil engineering. High wind speeds can cause unpleasant side effects, and strong winds often have special names, including gales, hurricanes, and typhoons. See the Beaufort scale for a discussion of this.

I hope this is enough and helpful!!!!

Answer 2

Clear skies = no clouds in the sky
Degrees (temperature)= how cold or warm it is outside
Front = weather over a certain area
High clouds =These generally form above 16,500 feet (5,000 m), in the cold region of the troposphere
Hot wind=
Low clouds= These are found up to 6,500 feet (2,000 m) and include the stratus (dense and grey). When stratus clouds contact the ground, they are called fog.
Sandstorm= is like a snow storm in a desert.. the wind is so strong it blows the sand

I give up too much typing go to Wikipedia you can find it all there.

Answer 3

howdy Dreamy, I did a learn on the theory of pretend love a pair years in the past. a clever woman informed me there grow to be no such ingredient as pretend love. She reported that each and all and sundry love from human beings comes up short whilst in comparison with the affection of God. To coach it. she presented here scenario: She asked, "might you enable your harmless newborn to be killed to keep the existence of a thief?" I reported, "No, of course no longer." She reported, "it extremely is how lots God loves us." Agape, philos, and eros. those are the three varieties of love. Agape is how we like all of us because of fact we like Jesus Christ and He loves them. Philos is how i admire you like my blood-offered sister. Eros is how i admire in basic terms my spouse. once you're directed and guided by love, assume the be conscious to return out oftentimes. in basic terms like human beings ruled by hate tend to curse and say "I hate..." lots. the comparable theory applies to you. what's on your heart and head pours out no rely in case you like it or no longer. there is in basic terms about no thank you to hide it. there's no longer something in any respect incorrect with it. image it like a nurse who spends her total day looking after unwell human beings after which treats the bus driving force giving her a experience abode with the comparable compassion. It does no longer cheapen the affection. It shows a love that may no longer possible to hide.
