Weather LITERACY · 4TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. In 1960, a weather satellite called TIROS-1 took the first TV picture of Earth from space—and weather forecasting changed forever. Before satellites, farmers had to guess if storms were coming by watching clouds and feeling the wind. Today, meteorologists track hurricanes from thousands of miles away and warn cities days before a storm hits. Weather happens because the Sun heats Earth unevenly: warm air rises at the equator, cold air sinks at the poles, and the spinning planet stirs it all together into wind, clouds, and storms. Questions: 1 What did TIROS-1 do that changed weather forecasting? 2 How did people predict weather before satellites? 3 Why does the Sun cause wind? littleactivity.com 4th Grade · Literacy
