What weather is
Weather is the state of the air at one particular time and place.
And the layer we live in
The layered cake
The atmosphere is the blanket of gases round a planet, which on Earth we call air.
A glance, or a whole day
Two kinds of thermometer
Some read the air around them, the ambient temperature.
Liquid climbing a tube
How a simple one works
A coloured liquid expands as the air warms and rises up the tube.
One subtracted from the other
The range
The range is the highest reading minus the lowest.

What weather is, and the five things we measure
Weather is the state of the air at one time and place, and nearly all of it happens in the troposphere. Five elements describe it. Words like chilly fail between two people, so meteorology measures on a shared scale inst…

Measuring temperature, rainfall and pressure
A thermometer gives a day its highest and lowest, from which the range and the mean daily temperature follow. A rain gauge reports rainfall as a depth, which means the same everywhere. A barometer reads pressure in milli…
- Some thermometers read ambient temperature; others record daily highs and lows.
- A coloured liquid expands up the tube as the air warms.
- Range is the highest minus the lowest, usually across 24 hours.

Wind, humidity, and predicting the weather
Wind runs from high pressure to low and needs both speed and direction, read by vane and anemometer. Relative humidity compares what the air holds with what it could hold. Weather stations gather the instruments, and for…
- Wind is air moving from high pressure towards low pressure.
- A wind needs both a speed and a direction to be described.
- A wind vane turns its pointer into the wind; a sock guides pilots.
