Use the information from your observation sheet to answer the following questions.

1. What patterns did you see between air pressure and precipitation?

They start at high numbers then they go to small numbers and finally go to high numbers
again.

2. What patterns did you see between air pressure and temperature?

They start at a high number then they go to lower numbers.

3. What patterns did you see between air pressure and wind speed and direction?

They both went higher and lower a bunch of times.

4. Over the five-day period, which day had the highest barometric pressure readings? Which
day did this occur? Describe the general weather conditions for on that day.

Day 2 had the highest barometric pressure readings at 1022 millibars.

5. Over the five-day period, which day had the lowest barometric pressure readings? Which day
did this occur? Describe the general weather conditions on that day.

Day 4 four had the lowest barometric pressure readings at 750 millibars.

6. Which days had the least change in air pressure over the five-day period? Describe the
general weather conditions for these days.

Day 1 and 2 had the least change in atmospheric pressure, they only had a 3 millibar
difference.

7. What conclusion can you make about the connection between barometric pressure and
general weather conditions?

My conclusion is that they both vary a lot (they go higher, then lower a bunch of times).

8. Predict what the weather conditions will be like tomorrow based on your data. Write the
predicted temperature, wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, and relative humidity.
Wind Speed: 1 mph. Atmospheric Pressure: 1020 millibars. Wind Direction: West to East.
Temperature: 20​° C
​ . Humidity: 30%

9. Choose three different cities, not your city. What is the barometric pressure reading for each
city?

West Covina: 29.91 inches Covina: 29.94 inches Monrovia: 29.91 inches

10. Predict the general weather conditions for each city.

West Covina: Sprinkling Covina: Sprinkling Monrovia: Rainy

11. How does your prediction of the general weather conditions for each of your three cities
compare with the actual weather? If they are not similar, explain what might have caused the
differences.

They were similar because we live close by them.
