New depressions/low pressure

Question 1

• There is a depression TIB

Answer 1

the low pressure moves from West-East.

Question 2

• Winds blow anti-clockwise along the isobars

Answer 2

…

Question 3

1) There will be high, wispy clouds TMT

Answer 3

it will be cool + dry before the warm sector hits Stirling.

Question 4

2a) There is a cold front + a warm front TMT

Answer 4

the warm front is the first to pass through.

Question 5

2b) There will be low + thick clouds (Nimbus Stratus) TIB

Answer 5

when warm air meets cold air, the warm air rises above it, then it cools, condenses + forms these clouds. Then it will start to drizzle.

Question 6

2c) The air pressure will also decrease TIB

Answer 6

the air is rising so there will be low pressure.

Question 7

2d) There will be a warm temp for about 10-11 hours TIB

Answer 7

warm air is coming in.

Question 8

3) After the warm front passes through, Stirling will be in

the warm sector TMT

Answer 8

there is very little cloud cover, a warm temp + mainly dry with some drizzle (low pressure).

Question 9

4) As the cold front gets closer, there will be

Cumulonimbus clouds TMT

Answer 9

there will be very heavy rain + the low pressure will drop in temp.

Question 10

5) Just before the cool front passes Stirling, it will be cold
with little rain TIB

Answer 10

of the cold air.

Question 11

6) Finally the cold front will pass. This occurs when cold
air meets warm air. The cold air is pushed upwards
TMT

Answer 11

we can expect rainfall/precipitation at fronts. TIB as the warm air is pushed up, it will cool, condense, form clouds + rain.
