Exercise continued
Your job is to forecast the High temperature, the amount of cloud cover,
the wind direction and whether it will be raining or snowing
at select locations in the afternoon of March 26th.
The locations you should forecast for are: Santa Barbara California,
Eugene Oregon, Ft Collins Colorado, Oklahoma City
Oklahoma, La Crosse Wisconsin, Wilmington North Carolina, New Orleans Louisiana,
Portland Maine and Cape Canaveral Florida. Here is a the satellite image
and weather map you just analized with these locations plotted
on it:
Below is a map that shows the high
temperatures from the afternoon of March 25th. Your forecast is
for for the next day, the afternoon of March 26th. Don't forget that
as the fronts move east across the country cooler air will follow the
cold fronts and milder
air will follow the warm fronts.
