Explanation:
Today’s post is a continuation of my communication with Ms. Jordan’s 6th Grade Science Class at South Central Middle School! South Central MS is located in Emerson, Georgia, in Bartow County. They are very curious to know how meteorologists predict the weather, and I am happy to answer them!
Nick asks, “…how do you predict the weather for a period of time?”
Camrin asks, “…how do you know when the weather will change and how do you predict the weather?”
Kayla asks, “…how [do] you and the other meteorologists know how to predict what the weather will be like and what kinds of tools [do] you use to predict the weather?”
Dear Nick, Camrin, and Kayla,
Thank you for your questions! Your inquiries are very similar, so I will be able to answer the three of you simultaneously.
Meteorologists are able to predict the changes in weather patterns by using several different tools. They use these tools to measure atmospheric conditions that occurred in the past and present, and they apply this information to create educated guesses about the future weather. Always remember that a weather forecast is an educated guess – meteorologists (and mankind, in general) cannot control the weather. The best we can do is observe past and present atmospheric patterns and data, and apply this information to what we think will happen in the future. Meteorologists use the scientific method on a daily – and even hourly – basis!
