How to Use a Weather Map
• First thing you do when looking at a weather map such as this one is examining the key.
• Here is the key on page p. 54
The next thing to do is to ask yourself some questions.
• Where do I see sunny weather?
• Some cities have clouds over the sun but that is not on the key. What does that mean?
• Where is the compass on the map to help me with directions?
Refer to the assignments page and open the document labeled weather map.
• Please complete the page based on the map and save it to the desktop labeled weathermap_yourname
