How to predict weather.

Many of us watch the weather forcast on the news and on the internet, but how can we predict it ourselvs?

By looking up at the clouds and how they are in the sky we can tell a lot about how the weather is going to be.

If the sky is really cloudy there might be a chance of rain or even snow, judging by the temprature of course.

If the clouds are high up in the sky it would just be cloudy. But if there are no clouds in the sky it will be sunny/ clear skyies.

Questions:

1. what type of weather would normaly occur in an area with high pressure?

Usualy it is clear and dry weather, there could be some clouds but presipertation does not occur.

2. Why is Norway relatively warn, although it is in a polar region?

It is because of the tides of the water and how the sun hits the earth, and because norway is at sea level.

3.Why does it rain more on the wast coast of Norway, compared to the east?

That is because the rain clousd come in from the ocean in the west and because of all the moutains the clouds have to release some of the weight aka. rain so the clouds can get over the moutains.

4.How come India is so cold?

That is because it is at a higher elevation and the air is thinner which mases it harder for warm air to get to, since warm air is heaver than cold air, the warm air sinks while the cold air rises.
