Procedure:
Use colors to complete the Pressure Map. This map is worth 30 points !!

1. Connect all the 1024 millibar pressure values using a BLUE pencil to make a smooth curved line. Start in Salt Lake City, where the shaded "1024" is on the map. (You may want to start by drawing the lines in regular pencil first before using colored pencil so that you can erase them if necessary.)


2. Repeat this process to mark the "1020" and "western 1016" values in BLUE.


3. Connect all the lines of 1008 millibar pressure values using a RED pencil. Repeat this process to mark the "1012" and "eastern 1016" values.


4. Label each isobar with just the last two digits.


5. Use a RED pencil to mark an 'L' in the region where the surface pressure is the lowest. The low-pressure areas are usually stormy, warm, and humid. Warm air rises, and water condenses and cools, causing precipitation.


6. Use a BLUE pencil to mark an 'H' in the highest surface pressure region. The high-pressure areas are usually clear, cool, and dry. The cool air sinks, water evaporates, and warms up.


7. Use a GREEN colored pencil to lightly shade in the state(s) where you would find precipitation.


8. Use an ORANGE colored pencil to shade in the state lightly (s) where you would find clear skies.


9. Draw arrows for the wind direction along the blue lines for high pressure. Remember, the wind blows clockwise around high pressure in the Northern Hemisphere. It blows counter-clockwise around high pressure in the Southern Hemisphere. Be sure to keep all your arrows pointing in the same circular direction.


10. Draw arrows for the wind direction around the red lines for low pressure. Remember, the wind blows counter-clockwise around low pressure in the Northern Hemisphere. It blows clockwise around low pressure in the Southern Hemisphere. Be sure to keep your arrows pointing in the same circular direction.

Answer:

Here's the step-by-step procedure for completing the Pressure Map:

1. Use a BLUE pencil to connect all the 1024 millibar pressure values, starting in Salt Lake City.

2. Repeat with the "1020" and "western 1016" values.

3. Connect the lines of 1008 millibar pressure values using a RED pencil, then mark the "1012" and "eastern 1016" values in RED.

4. Label each isobar with just the last two digits of the pressure value.

5. Use a RED pencil to mark an 'L' in the region with the lowest surface pressure.

6. Use a BLUE pencil to mark an 'H' in the region with the highest surface pressure.

7. Lightly shade the state(s) with precipitation using a GREEN pencil.

8. Lightly shade the state(s) with clear skies using an ORANGE pencil.

9. Draw arrows for wind direction along the blue lines for high pressure, clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

10. Draw arrows for wind direction around the red lines for low pressure, counter-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

Remember to keep all arrows pointing in the same circular direction for each pressure system. Good luck with your lab quiz!
