Meteorology is the scientific study of the atmosphere that explains and predicts atmospheric phenomena. The study of meteorology date back millennia, though significant progress in meteorology did not occur until the 18th century. The 19th century saw modest progress in the field after weather observation networks were formed across broad regions. Prior attempts at prediction of weather depended on historical data. It wasn't until after the elucidation of the laws of physics, and more particularly the development of the computer allowing the automated solution of the great many equations that model the weather in the latter half of the 20th century, that significant breakthroughs in weather forecasting were achieved.
Meteorological phenomena are observable weather events that are explained by the science of meteorology. Meteorological phenomena are described and quantified by the variables of Earth's atmosphere: temperature, air pressure, water vapor, mass flow, and the variations and interactions of those variables, and how they change over time. Different spatial scales are used to describe and predict meteorology on local, regional, and global levels.
Clouds are formed in Earth's atmosphere when water evaporates into vapor from oceans, lakes, ponds, and even streams and rivers; or by evapotranspiration over moist areas of Earth's land surface. The vapor rises up into colder areas of the atmosphere due to convective, orographic, or frontal lifting. The water vapor attaches itself to condensation nuclei which could be anything from dust to microscopic particles of salt and debris. Once the vapor has been cooled to saturation, the cloud becomes visible. All weather-producing clouds form in the troposphere, the lowest major layer of the atmosphere. However very small amounts of water vapor can be found higher up in the stratosphere and mesosphere and may condense into very thin clouds if the air temperatures are sufficiently cold. One branc...

For my cousin's daughter's class and their unit on weather. I explain how cold and warm fronts work and how pressure systems drive those air masses and create weather!
Local Lake Charles meteorologist Jeff Jumper sits down with Inside McNeese to talk about meteorology. How do you become one? How do you do it well? What can you do when you finally get that degree? All these questions and more are answered.

Well it's all for love, this farytale that unites us, and they will say that it's sent from above, but in the end it's just foolish love. This fundamental plight, will strip of bare of our divine right, and we will say that it's sent from above, but in the end it's just foolish love. So we just keep on wasting time. -I'll think it over then we'll-, and we just keep on wasting time, -were growing older till we-, cause every page that turns brings us closer but we keep on wasting time. And we just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over then we'll-, and we just keep on wasting time, -why can't you see that-, every page that turns brings us closer but we keep on wasting time.-----once when we were young, like a nursery rhyme we both had sung, cause we thought it was sent from above, but in the end it was foolish love. When nothings meant to be, a few keep me warm but there's no you and me, and now we know nothings sent from above, and we won't fall for no foolish love, and we'll just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over and I'll-, and we'll just keep on wasting time, -we're growing older still we-, cause every page that turns brings us closer and we keep on wasting time. And we'll just keep on wasting time, -I'll think it over and I'll-, And we just keep on wasting time, -why can't you see it-, cause every page that turns brings us closer and we keep on wasting time. And we'll just keep on wasting, keep on wasting, keep on wasting time, -this love has messed me up-, And we'll just keep on wasting, keep on wasting, keep on wasting time, -this love has screwed me up-, And we'll just keep on, keep on wa, keep on wasting time, -this love has messed me up-, And we'll just keep on time, keep on wa waaa, keep on wasting time.
