Weather is what the air and sky are like at a place and time. Sunny weather has sunshine, even with some clouds. Rainy weather has water drops falling from clouds. Windy weather has moving air that can blow leaves and hair.
Snowy means snowflakes are falling. Cloudy means many clouds cover the sky. Fog is a cloud near the ground that hides distant things. Stormy weather can bring strong wind or heavy rain or snow. A thunderstorm has lightning and thunder.
Mia sees many clouds covering the sky and falling rain. Both cloudy and rainy fit. Clouds alone do not mean rain is falling. Sunshine and rain can happen together.
A bar chart can count weather days. Each bar names a weather type. Taller bars show more days. To find the most days, choose the tallest bar.
Weather pictures can stand for weather words. A sun picture stands for sunny weather. A cloud with falling water drops stands for rainy weather. Match the picture's features to the weather word.
Weather changes every day: sunny, rainy, windy, snowy, cloudy, foggy, or stormy.
