Do you know these weather symbols
What do you know about weather forecast
How do people predict the weather
When did they begin to forecast the weather
For thousands of years, people have been trying to predict the weather. In China during the Shang Dynasty, people recorded weather forecasts on animal bones and tortoise shells. Centuries later, in Greece, the philosopher, Aristotle wrote his theories about how weather conditions formed. Weather forecasting advanced over time, with more and more instruments to measure temperature, humidity and air pressure. Today, satellite data and computer technology help scientists predict the weather more precisely and comprehensively.
Now let's listen to the weather forecast
and finish some exercises.

(P89) Tapescript:
Good morning USA, and welcome to today's weather report for Monday April 3. As weall know, this year, 2080 has so far had a lot of extreme weather. Get ready for a lot more! First let's look at Anchorage, where there is some unusually cold weather for this time of year. Be sure to wear warm clothes - you're going to need them if you do have to go outside! We're going to see some heavy snow over the next week, with temperatures staying around - 15 degrees.
In contrast to Anchorage, residents of Phoenix are going to experience another kind of extreme weather. They are about to be hit by temperatures of up to… wow, 52 degrees! That's probably hot enough to fry meat on the road! Seriously, though, drink lots of water and try to stay cool. Be sure to get medical attention if you or others have symptoms of heatstroke.
In Houston, temperatures will stay around 30 degrees. We all know that this time of year is hurricane season near the Gulf of Mexico, and there is a big one coming our way across the Atlantic. Be sure to stay safe indoors and listen out for the latest forecasts.
Temperatures are going to stay around 13 degrees in Washington, DC. But there is yet more rain expected. That's 14 days of rain in a row for the city. Some advice for everyone there - do not try to drive through floodwaters! And if you must drive in the rain, drive slowly and steadily.
In San Francisco, temperatures will be moderate around 25 degrees. However, this is combined with the dry California climate and a strong wind force of 8. This is not good news at all for the firefighters trying to control the wildfires outside the city. We are all thinking about people there who have lost their homes and belongings. If you want to help, please listen for details about
how to make a donation after this report.
