Weather affects children every day, from determining which clothes they will wear to whether or not they will be able to play a game of sports or even attend classes. But how much do they really know about how weather works? Weather Projects for Young Scientists will help children explore this broad topic in detail, from the everyday phenomena of wind and clouds to the awesome, destructive power of lightning, tornados, and hurricanes. It includes more than 40 weather projects, such as building a model of the water cycle, creating a tornado in a bottle, calculating dew point, reading a weather map, and more. Children will build weather-measuring tools- a barometer, a psychrometer, an anemometer, a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a thermometer-and then assemble them into a working weather station.
