你知道气象学家是如何预测天气的吗?快去短文中一探究竟吧!
Now satellites are helping to forecast the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of space, because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations, and some meteorologists can learn the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often forecast how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with the earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this. So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists.
