2 Finish the reading comprehension on the paper.How many kinds of storms do you know about?
There are many kinds of storms. Which do you see where you live? On some days, the sky is gray. That could mean a storm is on the way.
A gray sky can mean rainstorms. You may see great flashes of lightning.
After that comes a loud sound. That is thunder. Time to go inside!
Thunderstorms may have strong winds. The winds can blow branches off
trees. Balls of ice may come down. This is called hail. It can hail when it is
warm or cold.
Some storms come when it is very cold. It can snow so much that you can’t
see. Strong winds can blow snow into big piles. This is called a blizzard.
Some storms have extreme winds. Tornadoes are made of very fast winds
that spin. The winds can pick up trucks and homes. Scientists have ways
to predict when tornadoes will come. Then people can get out of their way.
