What is the difference between weather and climate?

• Weather describes the conditions at a specific day. Climate is long-term patterns in weather over the course of years.

• Climate is North American Rain. Weather is south american rain

• Weather is freezing.Climate is hot

• Weather is long-term. Climate is short term.

Evaporation is

• Water changing from a liquid to a gas (water vapor) due to heat

• Water running along the ground into lakes, streams and oceans

• Water changing from gas to liquid due to cooling

• Water falling from clouds after it has condensed

Condensation is:

• Water changing from a liquid to gas due to heat

• water changing from gas to liquid due to cooling

• water running along the ground INTO rivers lakes and streams

• Water falling from the clouds after condensing.

precipitation is:

• water changes from a liquid into a gas and rises into the air

• water changes from a gas into a liquid

• water falls from the clouds to the ground

• water runs along the ground into lakes, streams and oceans

Runoff/storage is:

• Water changing from a liquid to a gas

• water changing from a gas to a liquid

• water falling from the clouds to the ground

• water running along the ground INTO rivers,lakes and streams

What kind of front is located in the North East.

• Warm front
