Is the saying the higher the clouds the better the weather true

High clouds indicate the dry air and high pressure of fair weather.

so it is true

What happens in a stationary front

A cold air mass and a warm air mass meet, with neither moving.
During a stationary front the weather will stay the same for several days or more than a week. It depends on what type of front is making the other front stationary.

If the relative humidity is high and the temperature drops water vapor may

condense

How are pressure measurements related to weather prediction

Decreasing pressure indicates stormy weather.

Increasing Pressure indicates better weather.

What inturment is used to measure then wind

The instrument which is used to measure wind is a anemometer. This tool is used to determine the direction in which the wind is blowing.

Which type of cloud is tall and associated with thunderstorms

Cumulonimbus

What method of forecasting uses the effects of past weather conditions as part of its forecasting method

analog method

What type of air mass would produce warm dry weather in the summer

continental tropical

You can locate regions of low wind speed on a weather map by locating what

regions where isobars are spaced far apart

Which type of the following is true of clouds at medium altitudes

mostly water

What is the difference of the causes between a sea breeze and a land breeze

The only difference - is the direction of flow. A sea breeze blows from the sea onto the land. A land breeze flows in the opposite direction.

What of following causes tornadoes

coo,dy air meeting warm, moist air

How does region has a low pressure and a high pressure system moves in. What is the best prediction about the weather from this information

How does a region has a low pressure and a high pressure system moves in. What is the best prediction about the weather from this information?

Which statement is true of jet streams

The polar jet stream lies between the polar easterlies and trade winds

which is not part of the recipe for a thunderstorm to form

A cold front advancing
