Meteorology and Weather CPU
Introduction
 Weather affects many industries from agriculture
to transportation. Professionals in many career fields can benefit
from a knowledge of weather patterns and their related conditions.
The Meteorology and Weather CPU presents the science of
weather with interesting hands-on activities. Students monitor a
local weather station, view satellite and radar images to detect
prominent weather patterns, and identify the causes of tornadoes and
other storms with the help of interactive multimedia software.
