Meteorology/Everyday Weather

General Info
Everday weather is what i would consider the most complex subject for meteorolgy mainly because it coverals all bases of meteology even some climate and storm systems There is a lot to know for this topic some of the major things are
 * Heat transport
 * Atmospheric Circulation patterns
 * Air masses
 * Fronts
 * Weather forcasting technology
 * Instuments
 * Phenomena

Heat Transport
Lets start of with Heat transport heat transport includes the energy budget,convection,radiation

The Earths energy budget is how the earth reflects absorbs and distributes energy from the sun.As you might know from climate the earths albedo is around 31%. For those who dont know the earhts albedo is how much solar radiation the earth reflects. 19% is obsorbed by clouds,and 51%is obsorbed by the earhts surface.



Convection and radiation are both types of energy transfer.

Convection is the transfer of heat by the actual movement of the warmed matter. This is the cause of movement of air in many places. Convection causes warm air to rise and cool air to fall.This ties into most atmospheric circulation patterns like the trhee cell model. The hadley cell has warm air by the equator so it rises and than falls as it cools creating a circulation patterns Also convection cause sea and land breezes. A image of convection



Radiation
 * Electromagnetic waves that directly transport energy through space this is how the earth can be warmed from the sun.
