When you hear a weather report that forecasts scattered showers, you might wonder what you can expect. Usually it means that some parts of your area will have rain from time to time during the day or night. Some of the rain might fall where you are, and some of it will fall somewhere else. It will be scattered through the reporting area.

A scattered thunderstorm means the conditions are ripe for thunderstorms but they have not yet formed as one giant mass. These thunderstorms are much smaller, often less intense, and produce less rain. You may have pop up showers of short duration. The area covered is much smaller.

Why is the sky red when the moon is out?

If you are referring to what occurs at sunset, the light must travel through more of the atmosphere than at daytime. As it travels through more atmosphere, the light is subjected to more and more gas molecules in the air. The result is that more and more blue light is scattered out of the beam of light that eventually reaches your eyes. So Blue is "scattered out" and the part of light that is left over is red, orange and yellow. When the blue has been scattered out, even the clouds which scatter all colors, look reddish. The only color the clouds can reflect, is the color that shines on it. If blue is scattered out, only red will be reflected and scattered off of the clouds and in to your eyes.
