What Is Weather Variables?
Why is the windward side wet?
It's also why the windward side is wet. As the warm air rises up the mountain and becomes cooler, the water in the air is squeezed out by the rain on the windward side, and the dry air continues on to the leeward side. Do you think that if air rises up a mountain it will cause rain on the other side and also create a cloud?
You're right if you said yes. Air pressure, temperature and density all affect cloud formation. As warm, moist air rises up into the atmosphere, it cools, which means that it has to let go of the water it brought along with it.
Barometric Pressure and the Time-Dependent Rate of Rain
Barometric pressure is an important and useful weather forecasting tool. High pressure zones are associated with good weather, while low pressure zones are associated with bad weather. The absolute barometric pressure value is not as important as the change in barometric pressure.
Falling pressure indicates worsening weather conditions, while rising pressure indicates improvement. The rain rate is calculated by the time interval between the rain increment and the next. The highest measured value is reported when there is rain.
Where are the clouds?
It takes practice to measure how high the clouds are, but it is worth it when you know where the clouds are from and what type of cloud they are. Because of the way radar works, it can't tell us whether it is rain or snow that is causing the waves to bounce back, but it can tell us if it is snowing. The UK has just finished updating its radar network to be able to tell whether what they are bouncing off is liquid, rain, or frozen snow, and there are radars that can do this.
You can determine where lightning is coming from by looking at the sound of thunder, but it's always the lightning that you see first. If you divide the number of seconds between the lightning and the thunder by 3, you can see how far away the lightning is. If the gap between the thunder and lightning changes between strikes, then the storm is moving away, but if it is smaller, then the storm is closer.

A storm is hitting the Russian River north of Bodega Bay, Calif. The weather can change from minute to minute. Climate is the average of weather over time.
Dysfunctional Variable
Continuous variables can be both whole numbers and fractional number, while the variables which are only a single number can be called a "dysfunctional variable". The population of a country is not fractional.
Wind gusts in the X-ray binary
If the wind speed is less than 6 KT, the wind direction may be considered variable. If the wind speed is greater than 6 KT, the wind direction will be considered variable. Wind gusts are rapid fluctuations in wind speed with a variation of 10 knots between peaks and lulls. If the definition above is met during the 10 minutes that have passed, the maximum instantaneous wind speed is reported.
The NWP
The NWP uses mathematical equations that are based on the physics that drive how the air moves and how heat and water are exchanged in the atmosphere.
